thanks for all the well wishes re bubs girls 46 sleeps to go :o coming up so quick thats for sure
Shell Jacks ok, he still has the bandage over the steri strips and glue starting to look real grotty but they said leave as long as possible, or till it starts lifting etc, think I will take it off before we go to rocky for OB appoint on tues, thankfully where it is even if it scars you wont see it, its in the hollow behind chin/jaw bone
Thanks for your thoughts guys.
Well the **** has hit the fan. I just cant take it anymore and have been refered to the hospital for a stay to treat me for exhaustion and depression. I feel really bad and guilty leaving my older 2 behind, however they are admiting me to the mother baby unit, so I can take the twins with me and they will help me get them into a more manageable routine. I have cried heaps today snd now just feel hollow. I know it is the best thing but still feel bad. They cant get me in for a few weeks though as I am waiting for a place. The dr expects that I will be there for a week or so. So thanks for all of your support and will update you all when I know more.
:hug: Ohhh Helen. You poor thing, it does sound so exhausting doing all that building stuff while not in a proper house. I wish I could help - is there anything we can do for you?
If you ever need a stay in VIC, I'll have room in a few weeks.
Hope you guys are having fun Maz and Cougs!
Yay for your Saints Shell. Are you really uptight lately? Funny lady.
11 days to go here, and today was not a great day. The boys are unpacking faster than I can pack. Rans went out and bought a playpen that I can trap the boys in while I'm packing. They're infuriating otherwise!
Oh Helen, I am so sorry to hear things aren't going so well at the moment. You certainly are doing the best thing by going into hospital, and it's great that the twins can go with you. I wish there was more I could do for you. :hug:
nelle - 11 days till you move? If so, then how exciting!! Do the boys actually stay in the playpen? I think Emily would be the first to climb out of it :lol: I saw the pics on FB of your house, it looks nice. Bet you're super excited.
I don't follow AFL at all, but YAY that your team got in Shell :lol:
As for me, busy busy busy, but such is life. I have a day off tomorrow (woohoo!).
Helen- :hug: I hope they aren't keeping you too long on the waiting list. Do you have private health insurance? Maybe get in somewhere quicker? Try not to feel guilty your older two will be fine and in the long run it'll be for the best if its going to help you with how you are feeling. Have you got good family/ friend support around you?
Nelle- I saw the pics of your new place, how exciting! Packing/ unpacking is such a PITA esp with kids! Have you got a garage? When we moved we put all the packed boxes out there out of the way.
Chrissy and Maz, I hope the 2 of you are behaving!
Ash is being a little B at the moment, hitting, answering back, refusing to do what she is told, its a nightmare. Her meals she has few mouthfuls then demands us to feed her and won't eat. Be glad when this phase passes.
Had her party sat, she had a McDonalds party, and TBH I wouldn't go there again, maybe it was just my store but not very organised at all, the woman that ran it didn't really have a way with kids it was like the manager that was on that day just suddenly found out she had to do it cause nothing was set up or anything. I had to chase up if all the kids got there meals and drinks (which one didn't).
Helen - you have done the right thing. I was in a MBU with James when he was a baby, and honestly it is the best thing for you. The support is wonderful, and I am sure they wil lget you back on track.
In fact I am thinking I might need to go back to the MBU the way I am at the moment. Except the PND is not about E, but about J. I guess it is because of the PND I had with him last time.
Oh - and J failed his hearing test this weel. So we have to go back in 8 weeks time. Accounts for his unclear language. He has fluid on both ears, and passed 2 out of the 3 components of the test.
Ash sounds the same as J. Won't eat properly, hitting others, screaming at me, and being really rude to strangers when at the shop (like screaming at the checkout chick - poor lady!!)
Nelle - can you palm the boys off for a hour or so to do the packing?
We had the worst day sun and I was thinking of you Meg cause I remembered the trouble I remember you saying you were having. Has there been any improvement with him?
So what happens with the hearing? Is it the same test in 8 weeks time just to confirm? Where do you go from there?
:hug: Just wanted to encourage you about the hearing test Meg - if it's a physical thing, then I'm guessing they can fix it and it will end up making a huge improvement for J. I think that this potentially could end up really well. Keep us posted hon and hang in there.
just dropping off some :hugs: for Helen and Meg
Huge :grouphug: for Helen and Meg. Lots of love, prayers and positive thoughts for both of you.
Shell - Man, you gotta love 3 year olds hey? Miss A's a bit of a terror at times, but such a beautiful blessing as well, sometimes you've just got to grit your teeth and bear it (or go curl up in a ball in the corner :lol:)
Nelle - I must say, your new house is looking gorgeous! Hope the move goes smoothly, it'll all be worth it once you're in and settled.
Rach - Thanks again for the chat yesterday, take care of yourself, keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, particularly tomorrow.
Maz - Hope you have a safe trip back.
Well, I better stop procrastinating and keep some study done while my darlings are quiet/sleeping. Hi to all I missed.
