Yes, the vax have really mucked her around. I feel like crap today. Doesnt help that DP is in a bad mood and whinging about everything and its rubbing off on me. I am having one of those days where I feel like I cant do anything right.
DP says sometimes I dont tell him about things but I do, it is obvious to me that he just doesnt listen sometimes.
I am tired and I do work around the house and look after Ash, sometimes it just feels like its not enough as he works 2 jobs. *sigh*
Sorry for the whinge.
-
Ali- do we have the same partner, I could've written that exact sentence myself about telling them something! I have whole convo's with Df and then the next day he'll turn around and say I didn't tell him! Drives me nuts I think I may as well talk to myslef.
-
Shell they need a kick up the behind. I dont know how many times I have told him things adn to be told that I didnt tell him just frustrates the crap out of him and I am just choosing now not to argue back. I hate fighting over stupid stuff and sometimes its just easier to let it go. Bloody men! :hug: to you and me!
-
Mine is the same. I can tell him stuff and he forgets 10 mins later. i think he is more interested in the TV!
-
Wow so much to catch up on!!!!
I've read it all but will be back later to do personals...
Meg- I hear you about the TV my DH is so preoccupied with it I have to repeat myself at least 3 times before i get a response.
We had a good time away,just nipped down to our family onsite van, was so great to get out of the four walls.
L slept well and we went for nice long walks along the beach collecting shells & building sand castles, weather today was average so came home early...
MIL just invited us for dinner tomorrow, going to sound like a cow but about time!!!
-
Ali - :hug: oh hun!
Shell - :hug: oh sweetie
Pinny - sounds great getting out of the house!
There always seems to be one of our husbands/partners who is playing up.
AFM - put Alex in the sling, first time. He wasn't sure but he was just starting to fall asleep and I had to take it off. Will take him down the shops in it tomorrow maybe. Still nothing on the job front for DH, his internet business has slowed to zero, so the only income we have is the fortnightly baby bonus payments - life just keeps on getting better.. :rolleyes:
-
You know one thng I do to Df sometimes if I am telling him something important is make him repeat what I've just said. Lol. he hates it but it proves he only half listens so I make him sit thru listening again and tell him he should've paid attention the first time!
Tarkine- I hope he finds a job soon, thats not very much to live on. Have you any savings or anything? Such a worry this economy I am just so thankful Df and I are in jobs that will never go redundant (him teacher and me nurse) Have you family that can help financially if things get really tough?
Pinny- That sounds nice, Ash adores the beach, whenever she sees it she talks about our trip to Phillip Island last summer.
On a downside FIL looked terrible yesterday I actually got a bit of a shock, don't think he has much longer to go, Df and his bro had to carry him in from the car, he can't walk, he slept most of the time he was here, his clothes just hanging off him his face gaunt, I thought he looked bit yellow too, so sad. I always think how cancer is a terrible way to go. Plus I'd hate to think peoples last memories are going to be of someone looking awfully ill. I'm just glad he isn't in pain. And Ash is just all funny around him now, like she doesn't know what to do with him, she won't really go near him or give him kisses or cuddles anymore unless we take her and push it a bit, its sad cause she adored him.
-
can someone please tell millie 30mins isnt a sleep ...grrrrrr!
shell sorry to hear about FIL :( must be tough on you all. Go bombers!
BBL going to do the food shopping
-
Shell - sorry that he is looking so unwell, but like yo usaid he isn't in pain.
Tarkine- I hope things pick up for you soon.
AJP - E jsut did a 30 min sleep, and started whinging. I ignored her, and I *think* she has gone back to sleep. Not game to go check as it might get her started. I speak too soon. I can hear her now. I tell DH to keep the nosice dawn as she is resettling, as he has clomped around, slammed doors and dropped something.
Last night E woke at 2am. I ignored her, and she started signing in her room. She must have falled back asleep as I didn't hear from her again till 6am. Quick feed and back to bed till 8:30am.
I am sick. I think e is too. She has done about 4 poos today, and has chucked after every feed. I have a splitting headache, for more than 12 hours now. i also fell asleep on the couch this morning. Unheard of for me.
-
Meg- It sucks being sick, we are still getting over everything here. I think Df is looking forward to going back to work tomor, his 2 weeks holiday just been us all unwell. Get onto panadol before headache turns worse.
AJP- Yeah they were very happy with Bombers great win, Df didn't even tip his own team!
-
Girls, I think all our dp's are the same re listening and repeating things! Lol shell, I always get dp to repeat things too and guess what...he always gets it wrong :doh: Sorry to hear about your fil :( And regarding L's monitor the other night, while I was awake it was mostly in high 90's but I did wake up to see it change to 70 for a bit, but who knows what it was like when I was sleeping. Not sure when I hear back from the hospital.
Det, L has been like you described all his life!! LOL. He's not even 5 months yet and for the past 2 days he's been sooo so grizzly, restless, won't sleep, wants boobie 24/7 and I just don't know what to do with him. He is on me right now! I am running out of things to do with him. This morning I just wanted to eat breakfast and go to the loo! I had to stick him in the pram grizzling and wheel him around with me.
Kaz, glad the babysitting went well. Enjoy the time with your sister.
AJP, I so hear you with the 30min cat naps! In fact, L has been doing 15min naps the past 2 days and it's killing me. Just when I think I can get something done and he starts crying! Hope Millie does some more nights like the other night!
Nai, lol at clutching at straws! Did it work??
Ali, hope you're having a better day today :hug: Men are so thoughtless at the best of times, it's no good when you're stressed and tired!
Tarkine, glad you could get stuff done when mil was around, lol at your cat! My cat loves to sit on my books and papers when I'm trying to study - attention seeking perhaps?? So cute about Alex and the other baby interracting!
Eek Megie :hug: Hope you're feeling better. Sounds like E has gastro or something? Poor thing :( Hope it's short lived and you can get a good night tonight.
Pinny, glad you had a good time away. Enjoy not cooking tonight!
Hi to everyone else!
AFM, as mentioned before, having a rough time with L. Just when I thought his sleeps were getting better, it seems like he's going through a growth spurt or something... wants boobie ALL THE TIME, although I'm sure it's more for the comfort than the milk. He is so irritable and is finding it hard to stay asleep. Lucky to get half an hour out of him before he wakes. Even now, he's in my arms and he's wriggling about. Just wish he could get a sound sleep :( Anyway, they say growth spurts only last 48hours, so in that case, tonight should be better if it even is a growth spurt!
Catch up soon xox
Eta...omgoodness, I had a really bad dream last night that someone I know found me here on bb (a friend of dp's) and he started stalking me and telling dp everything that I posted on here! LOL anyway, thought I'd share... I used to have L's full name in my sig, but realised when it's googled it comes up with all my posts so I took it out and also, dp's mum told me a while ago she googled L's name to see if it was the name of anyone famous...I was like :o
-
Shell - sorry to hear about your FIL.. cancer is cruel for all concerned.
meg - sorry to hear ur not well :hug:
Holly - I hate bad dreams - I often wake up in crappy moods when I've had a bad one. I had a dream the other night where it didn't make any sense but I felt all the emotions in the dream - bizarre!
AFM - well shell - I don't know what's going to happen.. in the past I've been the one who has ran out and got a job at the drop of a hat to get money through the door (I once worked full time and studied full time for a whole semester - and I was exhausted at the end of it).. but this time I'm not going to go back to work - DH has to sort himself out and take responsiblity for a change. I wouldn't ask the family for help - MIL has already helped us out in the past. gotta go.. A is upset.
-
nighty night chickies!!
be back in the morning!!!
-
OMG, I just googled my children's names as I used to have them listed next to their dates of birth and they came up!!! ARRRHHHH scary stuff!!!! but when I do it seperately it doesn't....so I gues that something....I had to use first and second names too...
Shell- It must be so hard for you & your family....Cancer is so cruel..
Tarkine- Good luck with the job hunting for your DH,I hope something comes up ASAP
Meg- Try & rest I know it can seem impossible but I hope you get better soon.
Holly- No good about L sleeps, it's so hard when they catnap, they are so determined sometimes but they don't realise mummy's know best!!! Sleep Vibes to you..
AJP- Hope Millie had a better afternoon and decided to sleep for you!!! 30 mins not good!!!
Going to bed will catch up with everyone tomorrow!!!
-
Hi everyone - sorry I've been MIA but seriously EVERY time I jump on here Miss J wakes up! She has been just awful sleep-wise the last few days. She seems to have a cold and the poor little thing tries to suck her thumb but can't breath so wakes up crying. It's so sad :( She was awake crying until 10pm last night when I decided enough was enough and she co-slept next to me all night so at least we got some sleep. She's not taking to the portacot as well as I had hoped but it has only been 2 days...
Shell - I'm sorry to hear your FIL is not good. Hopefully he remains pain-free.
Meg - How are you all feeling? Hope you are better!
Tarkine - I hope something comes up for DP soon! Maybe he needs to branch out and take a job wherever he can get it even if it's not in his field of specialty. I remember DP counting people on trains for Dept of Infrastructure once when he was between jobs - not the most scintillating work but it brought in some money.
Jols - I hope Millie is sleeping a bit better for you!
Ali - I hope you have a better day today and that DP cleans his ears out and listens a bit better (I can smack him on the back of the head to loosen the earwax for you if you like ;) )
Holly - :hug: I hope Leon is more settled. How are his oxygen levels going?
-
I still feel ROTTEN and to make matters worse, J was up for about 2.5 hours last night, petrified that there was bees in his room. His eyes were darting around and he was looking for the bees. The n he howled every time we left the room. He finally went to sleep around 3 and E woke at 3:30 for a quick feed. They both got up at 7am.
E had her jabs this morning. She didn't even cry!
I amd soooooo tired today.
-
Nai- I hope J settles in her porta cot soon, we took ours away with us & L didn't do his normal long day sleeps either, maybe just have to get use to more space!!
Meg- Sorry to hear your stil not feeling well, can someone take your DS this afternoon for you so you can have a nap????Hope E goes ok with the needles..
-
PM - I was thinking that she would be happier with more space but you are right she may need time to get used to the extra space. She has been asleep for an hour now so that's a good start!
