Just popping in to say HI and Im still here reading all your posts. So much happening!
Kymmy - No cloth nappies here either although before Trent was born my mum was very pushy about using them but she hasnt said anything since, lol Like Nat, my little man is a pooing MACHINE! He did this massive one yesterday while at mothersgroup and it was EVERYWHERE!!! In his capsule and all in his overalls. Why does he do that when Im out?!?!?
Telly - Well done on the loss Wish I could motivate to loose weight!
Alison - good luck with your pram shopping! Luckily I bought mine second hand off ebay for $80 and its great I do find it a bit heavy at times but Im getting used to it.
JD's mum - dont you just LOVE when they just smile at you in the middle of the night like that, hehe Im the same thinking, go to sleep cheeky!!! Sounds like you had a fun day with JD, Toy story in 3D sounds great
Hi to Madame, Mon and everyone else
AFM - well where do I start! Have been trying this week to wake Trent at around 11pm to feed him in hope that he will do his 6/7 hr sleep after that but it hasnt worked! He slept 4 hrs the first night, 5 hrs the next and last night he woke after 3 hrs and I was like, "its too early" so stuck the dummy in his mouth and he eventually settled and woke 2 hrs later. But thats still only 5 hrs when he was doing longer if I demand fed him. Not sure what to do. Have been told to try to get him into a routine at night since he is now nearly 3 mths old but someone else said that he is very young still and to let him do what he wants cause at this age he is still too young to go a whole night without drinking. Just dont know what to do
Also, my DP has recently made contact with his 16 yr old daughter which he didnt know about until he was asked to do a DNA test last year and then pay child support for! We had to pay a solicitor $1000 to find her details as child support wouldnt give us any and finally he got a phone number for her and has spoken to her twice this week. She is keen to meet him too which is nice but also scary for him as you can imagine!
Plus, my DP is having major foot reconstruction surgery on 11 Feb in which he will be off work for anywhere between 6 - 8 weeks and cant walk on it for the 1st 2 weeks so Im going to have TWO babies to look after, lol Not really looking forward to that as he wont be able to help me at all with Trent other than feeding him basically.
Then my poor nephew whom Ive had staying here on and off during the school holidays, we've been concerned with his welfare and I finally made the decision last week to call a division of child services to talk to them about him. His mother has bi-polar and is in and out of hospital off and on. He is my brothers son. My brother passed away when my nephew was 2 (he's now 11) I have my nephew here until Sunday which is the day before he starts school. NOTHING has been organised for his return, apparently he needs a new uniform and when I asked his grandfather about it (they live with and he takes care of them when his daughter goes into hospital), he said to me, "he'll be right" I was so angry. Fancy sending him to school not organised. I called the mum and asked her if she wanted me to organise things and she said yeah that would be great. This kind of thing has been going on for AGES. Its hard for my family cause we are scared if we rock the boat with her, she may turn around and say we cant see him. However, enough is enough so I reported them. He told me the other day that he ate a lettuce sandwich for lunch and I was like WTF???? The house they live in should be CONDEMND as it is falling apart and has junk everywhere. Its that bad that his bedroom which he shares with his 16 year old brother, has plaster missing on the walls and there is cardboard taped to them to cover them up. The grandfather has like 6 wrecked cars in the driveway all filled with JUNK. Honestly this house belongs in a story on Today/Tonight He basically looks after himself, makes his own lunch for school, wakes himself up. Its just not right. They havent had a washing machine for MONTHS and when he comes to stay with us, his clothes stink and are filthy. He even comes to us with worn shoes with big holes in them too.
Sorry to rant and go on girls, it just gets me angry and upset when I think about it. And with all the other stuff going on, on top of that with my DP, its all getting to me. But not much I can do.
Wish I could motivate to loose weight!
