    I know Prama. We're just kind of ignoring it at the moment. Both of us.
    I just don't know what I want most of the time, but other times I do want him out. He is kind of helping me out, but loosing patience fast. He's sick of me not being able to do much. Not that he's getting off his arse much. He's done a few things to help, but he won't take over for me, even though he's not doing anything else.
    I can't tell him how I feel. It sux. I haven't been keeping much food down, so I have no energy. I feel like I'm going to pass out all the time. I'm pretty sure I'm dehydrated, but can't do anything about it. Except try to keep fluids down.
    I try to wash up & cook tea everyday & thats hard. I do get up & get the kids out the door every morning.
    I still think every day what an idiot I am for letting this happen. Not just coz of the problems with him, but coz I feel the way I do. This is why I wasn't going to have anymore. At least not for a lot of years. Coz I have such a hard time trying to look after the other kids. They are suffering coz of it.

    Anyway. Sorry guys. having a hard time still.

    oh hun, dont blame yourself for this, it's not your fault. and if you do, bub will pick up your vibrations and feel that it's not wanted. and you dont wanted that...

    i think it's unfair of him to expect you to do so much when you have 3 kids to look after and being pg; if he's at home not working and expecting you do all the work. even if you do the housework, he can take the kids off your hands and look after them.
    are you able to cook extra and have leftovers for a couple of days?
    i know how hard it is when you are so tired and feeling so sick and having to cook. and the thought of food makes you sick.

    can jaz and bri help with the chores?

    take care, hun. xoox

    Trina, so sorry to hear about what happened with Dave. I hope you heal quickly. Really great news about the job though, it's great they're being flexible for you too. It's so good having a flexible employer.

    Clover, glad to hear Anth has a job. I hope this one will be a long term one and pay properly.

    Hope everyone else is going ok.

    I'm settling into my job and feeling a bit more comfortable with things, but still so much to learn. Apparently it'll probably take a full 12 months before I have a full grasp of the cycles of the job.

    I'm looking forward to a special day off tomorrow though ;-)

    biggest hugs to you hun..
    so sorry things are not good at the moment. i hope nick can find something else soon. it really sux.
    dont feel too bad about counselling, it can be a blessing in disguise. it's a positive thing and it will help both of you understand each other better. steve revealed things that he would/couldnt say outright to me. and it helped him see it and help me understand him and it was the same for him. it made him understand things about me and where i was coming from.
    we get so lost in our day to day stuff and esp with a child, you dont have time to really listen to each other. it will help make things better before #2 comes and hopefully understand the stress each of you face when you have a child, something steve and i learnt the hard way when lakshman came.

    did they say why will is waking up at night? what kind of meds is he on?

    we're going to go to the zigzag railway on tuesday. if you are thereabouts, would be great to catch up xoxoxo

    Happy Birthday danni!!!! have a good one

    Things are looking up. I think
    Anth got his first pay today. Relief. He's taking Jesse to do some shopping & fill the car up & stuff. He cleaned up the kitchen yesterday & cooked dinner last night. Roast with mash potatoes & vegies Then after I went to bed did a heap of washing.
    It's probably a one off & won't happen again for a while, but its a start. I think admitting I was worried about being dehydrated kinda made him think.
    I'm also feeling a bit better today. the local supermarket must be stoked he's working again...they've already got $60 out of us this morning (& that was mostly choccy for me, lol. Well some of it!)

    Spending today just drinking as much as I can. Hoping to get past this dehydration myself.

    Bron. Something better will hopefully come up very soon xx

    thats great of anth to do that. hope he can do it again and he doesnt think it's a one off. it's good that he can make a good meal.
    i hope he's starting to realise that you need all teh help you can get, and that you expect more than a one off!!
