Ange- HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR YESTERDAY... HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD DAY.:happybirthday:
hi girls, still here, still pg
i was wondering where noni has been lately. anyone know?
thanks so much for all your concerns about me. we are not on any type of alert or anything, so looks like we're safe for now. i'm finding it very hard to relax though.
arte- after i read your post, i just rang up about acupuncture. i left a message so hopefully they can do something tomorrow? that would be great. thanks for all your support. i wouldn't come out right now either if i was this baby. it's very stressful circumstances and dh is giving me the absolute ****s atm.
md- best of luck for today and hoping for a quick recovery.
mm- i wonder what your sickness could be. kinglake is not that far from melbourne, i don't know for sure (ange would know a lot better than me) but i would guess about 60km?
i'll keep you all updated with any news, i'm still feeling really down and out about everything. last night i had a horrible dream that dh went to jail for 2yrs for the assault charges, then i got woken up at 4am by the fire warning alarm going off.
Rainy- you sure need heaps of hugs love.
Rainy you poor love, I am sending you loads of really squishy hugs. I hope you got in to acupuncture.
MD thinking of you today, hope all goes well.
Leanne I hope you feel better soon.
Clare I hope you get better soon too.
I feel so icky today, MS is horrible, it isn't as bad YET though as it was with L.
Shopping ... Jack is pretty good thought lately I turn around to catch him climbing from the seat into the back of the trolley!
Had Alex's ADHD app't this morning ... he's too young to be tested for the attn side of things but as for the hyperactive side of things ... I answered yes to all the Q's & he's "text-book" hyperactive ... he's hasn't been put on the standard type of drugs (thank god cause I wasn't too keen on them) but has been given another one to be issued at nite to hopefully get him to sleep better. Have another app't in 6 mths.
We then got side tracked & went shopping (instead of me coming home to clean). It was a nice day, just the two of us.
Jack had his first nite in his toddler bed last nite. took me 45mins to get him down to sleep though, but then he had a restless few hours till he crawled in with me & cuddled for hours watching MASH.
Gonna get Alex some arvo Tea & make me a coffee ... ttyl
edited to say ... ps. we aren't having visitors this weekend, apparently the roads are too "fkd" to come down ... wanted to come next week. had to say no cos my sister will be coming up from adelaide on sat for a few days.
andie: how come the roads aren't good?
i didnt realise that you had concerns about jack and ADHD. i hope that they can give you some answers.
Rainy: am thinking of you sweet. tough times...where are you meant to be having bubs (ie out of fires way?) or are you home birthing? sorry cant remember...i'm sure you mentioned it...
Oz: did you get icky m/s with L? hhope this bubba is a bit more gentle LOL!
yeah i was wondering about Noni too! hope she is ok...
Noni: where are youuuuuu?????
AFM: all good here. still sick, so thats a bummer but getting by. the smoke over us has not abated.
went and bought DH a valentines today. this will be our first as a married couple and with a kidlet. so although we dont nomally celebrate it, i felt that this was special. went to koko black and bought the most tacky chocolate couple holding a love heart today...te he he soooo awesomely tacky it aint funny.
hi ladies,
a wet afternoon here - wish i could send it down South.
rainy - are you ok? noticed your fb status. I'm pretty sure why i know you're upset, but just wanted to check that nothing else has happened. :hug:
clare - you're a nice wifey. :) I bought dh a new belt and some Bed Hair - to keep his 'do' in place. ( god i hope you know what i mean!)
andie - Have you ever checked out Sue Dengate's 'fed up with food additives' website. It has lots of fantastic information. Great news that you get to have the weekend to yourself now.
oz- ms is no fun- especially when you have a little one to look after.
Rainy, I feel so bad for you atm. When does your DH go to court? If he writes a letter to the judge explaining where you live and offering to do some Saturdays of bushfire clean-up they might let him do that instead of a fine, at least that way he is helping out? Did you get an accupunture appointment?
Oz, MS is the pits. I have been really lucky this time, I have felt a bit average but nowhere near attempting to spew out my spleen like last time.
Ange, :hug: we will corn-off again next year, I have put in an order for a bit more rain and a bit less catastrophe! I have been wanting to write something in the other thread for you, something inspirational and helpful but I just don't know what to say. I can't even imagine how difficult things are for you at the moment, I wish I could do something practical to help you out. How is your DH going with the stock?
MD, hope you are in a happy drug induced daze eating as much chocolate as your DH could supply
Clare, sounds like you found the tackiest valentines present ever! How is everything going with DH now? Have you been to the fancy new psychiatrist yet? You are more than welcome to join the next corn off, next time someone might actually get some corn lol
I suspect my new baby is going to be a health nut! I feel sick if I eat greasy food and *crying a little bit* chocolate!!!
hi girls!
JaZmum: ROFL...i had to giggle at that a little bit!
i think i have forgotten what rain actually is...it's wet right?
MD: mmmmm chocolate.....mmmmm
Arte: things with Dh are back on track (yay!). we have been seeing my psychologist together for couple work and it has been amazing.
i wouldnt count on my corn actually working! DH and i have had trouble adapting to a terrace lifestyle. the soil here is shot and full of building debris from the 1800s. but bit by bit we are building it up thanx to the handy work of our worm farm...
AFM: well leila came home with the runs today. (yay for us :rolleyes:) the poor wee thing had a bath and was doing a nudey rudey through the house and then BANG she had her big poop accident. i felt so terrible for her as she was mortified and tried to run away from me and was crying and trying to clean it up herself. i dont know why she reacted like that, but i guess she is really developing a sense of self about that kind of stuff...dunno... how would you guys read that?
so tonight she demanded to go to bed at 6.30pm, refused to eat and didnt even take her bottle of milk. i feel terrible as now my baby hasnt eaten anything and has gone to bed hungry.
Rainy: you're a girl who likes retail therapy....i have found the BEST site for bubby clothes in like ages!! called eternal creations. the clothes for boys are just the sweetest!! and it's all fairtrade and the like....i think i will have to splurge for Leila this winter!!
Clare - how is Leila's nappy rash? could it be that it hurt and she didn't want you to touch it? I wonder if it hurt while she was having a nappy change at daycare? Has she got some big teeth coming through? Hannah has had the same thing and her molars are coming through.
arte - i wish i felt off after eating greasy food and chocolate....might help me to stick to my diet:rolleyes:
Finding the words in a crappy situation isn't my forte Arte, so don't worry, i'm right there with ya. Just knowing you are thinking of me is more than enough. So thanks. ;) You put a simle on my face witht he new corn off challange, that is more than i can ask for.
I havn't read any posts really, but i will as soon as i can concentrate for longer than a few minutes. Thanks to all of you for your words of support. It helps more than i can tell you. :hug:
Clare:
No idea about the roads but I do know he doesn't use the coastal road until Grafton. He comes own the middle between the coast & the new england.
Alex & ADHD but by looks of things, Jack mite have to be checked over. Their D/C mum is a bit concerned for Jack. It does run in our family though.
Noni is around, she was on f.b earlier.
Jazmum .. never heard of it. Do you have the website handy? Mite google it shortly.
As soon as I got the txt I could feel the stress & tension leave my body.
Didn't get far ... googled it & found a site ... There is a talk in Alsonville on the 16th March & I'm bummed. Would be interesting to have gone & Alstonville is great as that is whre my mum lives :( Will just have to read it now
Arty :hug: o no on the chocolate, i can't live without it at times. Hope you are feeling good otherwise.
AFM: I"m sitting in Jack's room w8n for him to go to sleep. he loves this new found freedom & I want to do deal with it calmy so I'm trying what I can ...
Picked Jack up from d.c this evening ... the mum was telling me he chucked a wobbly for nearlly 3 hours after I left, making himself sick numerous time (shoving fingers down throat) & bashing on things. I didn't think he would be that bad. Really need to do something bout getting him used to Alex not being around all the time.
Hi guys just a quick one to say that it took me forever to catch up with everything.
Wanted to say congrats to Arte and Katie and best wishes to Ange and Rainy
All going okay here, Sarah is cracking tanties left right and centre as well as getting into everything. Her words are really non-existent but she understands heaps. I think shes also getting her eyeteeth...on second thoughts thats probably the reason for her 'painfulness'. lol
Hope MD went well today and that everyone is going well :D
Ohh Rainy wish I could give you a big hug. Did you get an acupuncture appt? Just in case I dont get the chance to say it beforehand, good luck with the birth I'm sure you will breeze through it. We are all so excited for you. Please dont be sad, I know with everything thats going on around you atm its hard not to be, but think of the precious gift you are about to be given. This should be an incredibly happy time for you. You are so lucky!
MD - Was thinking of you today, hope the op went well.
Kate - Hi & wb! We have eye teeth coming through atm too.
Andie - Sorry to hear about the ADHD, hope they can give you some more answers and ways of dealing with it. :hug:
Falguni - Still thinking of you!
Clare - Ohhh poor bubba, is she teething atm, could that be the reason for the yucky poos? I wonder if it was embarrassment, or maybe even like Jazmum said she was scared of having her bottom cleaned due to the rash?
Arte - LMAO at you looking like an 80's hooker on your wedding day, what a disaster, did it upset your day at all? This is why we are doing our own makeup, but hair is a bit trickier! Ohhh well maybe not being able to eat bad foods is a good thing, I was terrible for chocolate with Maddie. Just think of all the extra weight you wont gain hehe.
Oz - Hope the ms doesnt get too bad...
Trill - I was showing DP your place on google earth. Some days we would love to live that kind of a life too. It must be so great to have a huge place, out there on your own. I'd love to live in the country one day.
Jaz - lol at the bed head to keep the do in place, dont worry I know what you mean ;)
Leemar - O sounds like she is doing well with her talking. Are you getting back into the flow of working yet?
We've had 3 yucky nappies this arvo, a terrible nappy rash & a slight temp....would you all put that down to teething?
MD how did the Op go? I hope that when you jump back on your consuming copius (sp) amounts of Haighs.
MM sounds like teething to me. L is teething too and I have had to nurse him to sleep almost every night this week.
Kate good to see you.
Andie poor Jack thats sounds awful.I would have thought the carer would call if he was that upset???
Ange glad you popped in. Hows Miss Lu doing?
Oh Clare poor L sounds like she might have a tummy bug or teething?
Arte all I want to eat is junk, greasy junk. DH and I had a spat about my terrible eating habits tonight, it is the first and last time he will argue with me about food while I feel like crap let me to tell you lol.
I am feeling better now, seems to be bad in the morning, hangs around all day and worse in the evening before dinner. At least I havent had to make friends with the toilet yet. I guess I should go and get ready for bed, I feel like such a nanna lol.
Katie - Congrats!! Very exciting news. Tell DH that your body is telling you what it needs and that's what you will eat.
Arte - oh no, don't feel like chocolate!
Rainy - hugs out to you at the moment.
she just woke up, better go.
ETA -
MD - I hope everything went well yesterday
Ange - Happy Birthday for Thursday. Let us know if you decide to celebrata again when you're more in the mood for birthdays.
MM - hope you feel better soon, wonder what it could be? Have you been to the docs yet?
Andie - sorry your ex didn't make it down for you to talk. At least you didn't rush around cleaning for them and can do it in your own time.
Hi girls!
Ange: dont worry! we understand that things must be whirling around you atm. we'll be here forever and always with open arms when you are ready to BB again like there is no tomorrow! ;)
Andie: oops sorry, got the wrong kid! Thats the prob when my brain doesnt work! (like always).
ah i guess they must be doing road upgrades...always the case with the inland roads up there, and yet it never seems to get better.
oh bummer about poor jack. i guess this will just take time and lots of cuddles at d/c for him to transition to this new situation.
JaZmum: you could be on the money there...she did do a runny number about 30 minutes later. so maybe her tummy was upset. the girls at kindy told me that she had a 'loose' poo...whatever that's meant to mean! is it runny or not? urrrghhh :rolleyes:
and i *think* it is related to teething. i can see a molar busting to get through and two eye teeth...poor wee thing.
Oz: that was how i felt with Leila. when i woke up it would be gross then kind of fade to a general 'turn off' during the day and then whack me in the evening. hope that it passes in good time and order!
MM: No rash. but later that night she did have the runs once. so i think that maybe she was a bit freaked by the impending poo! poor thing though i felt so bad.
normally i would say yeah it's teething, but the fever is something to question that. maybe she has something similar to you (unless your pg!!! LOL!).
Kate: we are the same here. not many words but the comprehension is amazing. one thing that i am perplexed about is that the majority of her words are the italian ones. so weird as i thought the english would win through as i *think* we speak that more often. so strange...
AFM: still all good here. leila had a some runs last night but appears to be over it and woke up ravishingly hungry after going to bed without ANY food or drink!! and she back to being happy go lucky again.
one new thing that she has started is to come into our room when i am still snoozing (DH does the morning duty) and she'll crawl into bed with me under the covers and we'll have a small cat nap together or simply just a lie down where she cuddles me for 20 or so minutes. i just love it! especially now that the b/f is over and i dont have that quiet one on one time much anymore IYKWIM.
