Gee meg that sounds awful. I wish i could help you out. Even to babysit whilst you had a rest. Do you have anyone? Maybe DH should let you have a few hrs of recoup before he goes. Men just dont seem to understand.I love my girls but at times they depress me with the fighting and sleeping issues and esp millana's behavior.
Your not alone here..the thing is some of us have no help and thats what kinda makes it harder. I wish there was a solution..
helen - so glad to hear it doesn't look like anything serious/long term!
I have asthma, have my whole life. So if you need any advice/info, let me know.
meg - it is such a shame when men just don't get that we need a break once in a while as well. Do you have anyone else for support? Hopefully it's all just a little phase the kids are going through. It's hard settling in with a newborn and a toddler. Just keep trying to organise some sort of routine with them and it will eventually fall into place.
I've run out of time on the computer now I'll be back tomorrow for more.
Well DH wanted to stay on for a few more days, and I insisted that he come hom,e. I don't think he was bery happy.
How is everyone going? This thread has become so quiet.
Jodi - I was on facebook that you got the F/T job. Well done.
J is absolutely obsessed with a bob and spiderman figurine. He carries it everywhere including in the shower. I won't let them leave the house though. Does anyone else's kids become obsessed with certain toys? I just wonder what I will do if he loses them? We will have major tears. I am thinking of buying a spare.
I was thinking we were pretty quiet. Meg, Riv's in love with helicopters, and if one breaks, he wails for what seems like hours. I'm glad your dh is home, it can be so hard without them, I don't think they realise.
Hey wanna know something cool? I think Riv just said love. Well, he did say it, I just hope he meant to say it. He fell over in their room (I did tell you the boys are in the same room cos Riv almost got on the roof didn't I?) and I went in to soothe him, and he escaped out the door, which made me giggle, and as I put him back to bed I said I love you, mummy loves you so much my love. And he said 'Ove'. Then he thought about it and said 'Love'. I tried to get him to say it again, but he'd moved on, and wanted to know what his beads were called, and what my ear was called.
Nelle- thats great about the words.. Annika says she wubs me all the time, but she also tells me she hates me too think her older sister and kindy are getting in her ear....
Meg- glad DH is home
as for us
Annika is a little chatter bug, loves to sing... has obsession with babies and has one in her tummy often, and well she even knows the way babies come out too, my mother was absolutly mortified when annika and Teleah were having babies at her house, laying there with their legs open... ROFL think thay had watched on to many of my labour and birth videos
Millana is also now walking, little cheeky thing... takes a few steps though and realises what she is doing and stops... she got bit by something lately cant work out what it is though and seems to upset her a bit but the emergency dr said she would be fine.
Teleah has one more term of kindy before she starts school and she is so excited, diving me up the wall with stuff she wants for her big school
I have a week of child free time next week, its ex turn to take holidays and have them for a full week... omg i am so not going to know what to do with myself. Im going to miss them bad but enjoy it at the same time.. they need the time with their dad.
I am going camping for a few nights, me and a girlfriend as a girls get away no boys allowed... lol
so yeah thats me LOL turned out longer then i thought it would be

Hi all, ive been busy too. I seem to be on facebook moe often than not these days.lol
Millana is currently sick with a dreadful cold and ruby spewed sour milk all over herself and me last night so hoping she doesnt get it too. i have an ear ache. So i suppose betternow than when school starts.
Aaron is open to suggestions for another bubs but we will discuss it again closer to oct as i want a winter baby. (easier with dh's job) and im sick of birthday's at the end of the year. Plus i need to speak to the specialist about my coeliacs and how it will effect bubs and i.
I have been sewing as per usual..life is pretty good atm.
Yay Caddie- I'm always waiting for you to announce another, thats how convinced I am you will have one. 2 is it for us! Hope you all get better, everyone seems to be sick, we've had colds here.
Ness- If he sticks around when your hormonal sounds like yr on to a good thing! Enjoy your week off, make the most of it I say. I think it'll be good for your ex to have them a whole week on his own to see all the work you have to put in on your own.
Nelle- No I've not heard the story! OMG the roof, is he going to be an acrobat one day!
Meg- I'd get extra in case. A friend of mine her son loves woody from toy story and he lost the hat, this was last xmas, so he stuck it in the tree for santa to get him new hat for it as he was very upset by it, so 2 days before xmas my friend was running everywhere trying to find this doll! Nightmare, so yeah get extra in case!
We have been quiet in here, we've had Ash being very fearful of everything and anything, I posted a thread on it. I think some things she genuinlly is scared but now she is doing it everyday over everything and I'm thinking its an attention thing.
We started TT her 2 weeks ago and that went well but last 2 days she has had 2 accidents each day so we're getting there. I'm glad we waited til we were ready rather than pushing her earlier. I got sick of ppl telling me she should be trained by now etc, there kids were trained at 18 months or something.
hey all we are still here just :lurk: away and trying to get thru another few weeks till 2nd tri and nuchal scan then I can start to get excited
Nelle its beautiful when they say "love you" we used to do the sign for love you and Jack did that from about 1yrs now he will come into a room or when he gets up and give me a cuggie (hug) and say "love you mummy" and if I say "love you too" he will follow with "love you most" "love you more" as I used to say this to him all the time now he beats me to the punch
HI guys, sorry I havent really answered to any posts. Things have been all over the place, a lot of you guys know of the issues I have had. Well today we found out that DH has bipolar, so coming to terms with that and looking forward to finally hopefully getting better. I will try and post, but to be honest the most I do lately is read. I will pop on after Eithans specialist visit this Friday and let you all know how he is going, but for now I will take it easy. I am pretty upset but happy we can deal with it.
Today Eithan said Love you Dadda, first time he has said he loves us. Melts your heart doesnt it.
oh Helen hon.....I dont know what to say babe...diagnoses of the mental kind are hard to deal with... babe we're all here when you need us
only a fly by.....hope your all well...VY drives me INSANE with her none stop talking and her tanties scremaing NO NO NO. AH I could so easily make her an abstract art work some days! We have gone back to wearing night nappies which im not fussed about and she's bene putting herself to bed at night . she doesnt tell me she loves me but if I hurt myself i get - you alright mummy...do you need me hug you.
im off like a frog in a sock...lve done enough work for the day
helen - What a shock that must be for you all. There are many support groups around for Bipolar, and there is the private depression section on BB if you ever need to talk in there as well.
Good luck on Friday with Eithan's specialist visit.
ETA:
back to finish my post now that I've got some spare time.
meg - thanks for the congrats. I'm stoked that I got a permanent job.
How was Emilia the other night, did she party all night?
It is soooooo cute when they say 'love you' isn't it. Nina doesn't say it very often, she's probably only said it twice, but that's enough
shell - there's no right or wrong time/age to tt, it's whenever they're ready. Friend's of ours have a little boy 2 weeks younger than Nina and he has no idea about going to the toilet. And a friend of Nina's at kindy was 2 in November and she had no idea either, but since her and Nina have become friends and she sees Nina wearing undies and going to the toilet, she's starting tt herself. So it's whenever they're ready.
Ness - enjoy your camping trip, and your kid-free time!! Goodness knows you deserve a break.
caddie - ooooooh another baby, how exciting! Hopefully you can convince him!
As for obsessions with toys/charactors, Nina goes through phases. ATM, she's not really into just the one thing, but she does love her princess stuff. She loves to dress up like a princess, and at daycare she loves dressing up as Batman.

Yay for permanent work Jodi!
Big hugs to you Helen, hope E's specialist appt goes well.
Have a great time camping Ness!
Hi Hi to everyone else!
We are doing ok here. A few issues I cant go into right now for privacy reasons.
Jett says I love you a bit, esp to baby River, he's the favourite right now He's nowhere near TTing so he must be the last kid here who is still in nappies. He is obssessed with Transformers and Star Wars so thats all I hear from him day in and day out. He can sing all the theme songs by heart, but his real love is Guns And Roses 'Paradise City' It gets played atleast twice a day. He's so grown up it makes me cry sometimes, cant believe he is 3 in less than 6mths.
We've had bad news, you all know how FIL has been battling stomach cancer for over 2 years now well he only prolly has couple weeks left to live. He just can't eat or drink and he's spent more time in hospital this year than at home, lost so much weight, its got very aggressive. So Matt and his brother and mum are going in this arvo to speak to the Dr and work out what the plan is to keep him comfortable.
I'll be back tomorrow for more.
think her older sister and kindy are getting in her ear....
. she doesnt tell me she loves me but if I hurt myself i get - you alright mummy...do you need me hug you.
