Stevie, huge hugs hun.. I'm not going to say anything except for - wait for it - I know how you feel.. DH last night AGAIN used the excuse of 'but I have to go to work' and all I said was 'Ah yeah, keep using that excuse'
I honestly sometimes want to just shove a sock down his throat (or worse) and give him a kick up the butt and say 'If your not gonna help out, just leave us alone'
Amber - Of course your welcome - Adding William to the list.. William Robert, born 21st Oct @ 6:56am
Will be back later - spending the day with MIL - looking forward to it too, especially with how down I've been feeling
Oh Stevie I don't think anyone can prepare you for having a baby. Not only is it a huge shock to your system but it also puts HEAPS of strain on your relationships. Raising a baby on your own is really hard work and it sounds like that is pretty much what you are doing with your DH away so often. I'm not at all surprised that you guys are having a few issues but try not to let them get you down or become too destructive. You both really need each other right now and Alissa needs you too so try to hang in there and be patient with each other. It's normal for things to be a bit crazy right now but I'm sure they will settle down soon.
Rach & Tammie thanks heaps for your advice, I just went out and got myself an Angelcare monitor!! Now we can all sleep a little more soundly.
Ok girls I have some super exciting news to share with you.... I have just handed in my last every uni assessment item!! I've been studying for my business degree part time while working full time for the past 4 years - squeezing in summer school subjects to try and get things out of the way as quickly as possible. It has been a long hard slog but now I can relax! I know I have already passed the subject so anything I get for this last assessment is pretty much just bonus marks So I now have a bachelor of business degree with a double major in management and IR/HR . Yay me!! Sorry - just so excited for myself. If any of you had tried to balance full time work with study you'll understand exactly where I'm coming from.
I'm exhausted now - time to have a rest while Leila is sleeping
AFM: OMG I am ready to drop... Luke woke at 5.30am didn't go back to bed till 8.30am which by then Jack was awake 8am, so I have been awake since 5.30am Jack and I used to sleep in I would get up around 8am him around 9am *yawn* 5.30am does not work for me *yawn* *yawn*
an to add to it I have terrible fluid retention in my feet and legs mainly my right foot it is so painful

: hit reply to early duh!!!!!!!!
Rach you poor thing i had bad fluid in my feet when i was pregnant.. it suced big time
Thanks for the hugs for before ladies its good to have somewhere i can go and vent and not be judged or have DH be judged coz its not easy.
But tonight he called me and told me that he called a helpline (i was shocked too) just because he can see what his actions are doing to me and he wants to fix it for me but mainly for Alissa. I just love my DH so much, it makes it so hard when he's always in a bad mood, and when he's so controlling over money, Im not even allowed to see my own Mum but seriously the Mum thing is another issue altogether.
Goodnight my ladies
kisses to bubs xxx
Ok ladies this was my Saturday.
We were meant to stay at my cousins house in Melbourne....
After a great morning at the aquarium (a treat for Annabelle being so good with Lucy) we then go to the new DFO in South Warf. After spending ALOT of money on both the aquarium and DFO we get to the car and cant find the key to start the car, it had broken off the rest of the keys a few weeks beforehand.
After looking everywhere, we figure we need another plan and cant be in this car park any longer with 2 babies!
So 4hrs have past full of sitting in the car park calling locksmiths. I then called mum and she did the same for me from her net. She found someone to do the key for $450 As the key is computers, forcentral locking! Then both Dps phone and mine went flat! Thank god mum organised then man to come to us.
We waited till 8pm still no man So we decide to go stay at the Hilton which was next door
So that cost us $500 too!!!!!
The man showed up in the end and fixed it for me. But I have now noticed he has recked my car door, its dropped a little and is making a clunking noise
I wake in the morning and low and behold, theres the damn KEY!!!!! I must have got stuck inside a nappy in my bag, so when we looked in my bag we should have shaken the nappies not lift them!!!!!!
Fi- WOW! You must be very proud Well done.
Rach- Are you taking anything for the fluid?
Boomba- Welcome! Glad to see you in here
Tammie- You lucky lady what a great sleeper you have there!!
Well ladies Lucy is great BUT she's having alot of saw bellies During the night the worst! Last night I was so tired, I feel terrible as I got mad at her I was still kind of asleep and I was like, "What! What do you want" Then came the "I cant do this!"
haha silly woman I am! I have heard of silent reflux, can anyone tell me the symptoms???
