Some of your loved ones / friends are having a rough time at the moment aren’t they?? Not good….my thoughts are with all of them….
Camme – Just got around to reading your birth story – very amusing and I loved it!!! Wish I was able to write something like that!! You did very very well! Your poor hubby though – he copped it!!! I think my DH was lucky that I was unable to talk or pretty much do anything except nearly crush his hand every time a contraction came! Seems like so long ago now...Abbey doesn’t get much floor time either as JD would probably sit on her and I don’t have eyes in the back of my head (though as useful as they would be!) so she’s stuck in her chair for a lot of awake time and she’s slowly starting to hate it now….damn it!
Alison – That poor little baby girl and her parents….I cant imagine how terrible that would be…I hope they get through it OK…so sad and it does make you realize how lucky we are doesn’t it? And all your ghost stories are freaking me out!! You will have put a pic of your new do on FB! Hope you had a nice time at your group this morning…
Heavenly – So sorry about your granddad…old age is a horrible thing….I hope he’s peaceful at least and not in any pain….
Kymmy – I hope the news for your dad was good and he doesn’t have to lose his foot…waiting to hear how he is….I cant believe you bought 10 boxes of nappies!!! That’s hilarious – good deal though so at least you’ll be stocked up for months and months now! I only have 2 prams so I’m not quite as obsessed as you and Alison though if I had the $$$ I would get a new one if I could!
Ubba – How is Ruby going now?? Her and Abbey sound alike with their feeding and sleep issues…..ever since I was away Abbey is refusing my left side and it’s driving me nuts….I think she got so used to getting milk instantly from the bottle that she doesn’t have the patience anymore to wait for it to start flowing from me….I think my left side has a slower let down as well cause she’s fine on my right and that’s always been my better side….I’m slowly giving up I think…she is having more and more bottles every day now. It makes me sad, but I’m going insane at the same time when she pulls off and carries on….A also only slept for about 30 mins this morning then another 20 min nap around lunchtime then is down again now so we’ll see how long it lasts this time…
Natty – I feel bad for Abbey too when we are eating…she stares at us and watches the food go from the plate into our mouths and the poor thing drools and carries on. It’s cruel isn’t it? Abbey will 4 months on Sunday so I don’t know what to do…see how her sleeping goes I guess…she is such a sucker too and always has her fist or washer or whatever she can get her hands on in her mouth. I wish she’d take a dummy, she’d probably like it if she gave it a go…I put my finger in her mouth sometimes and she chews like mad on it but I cant feel any lumps or anything…
AFM – God I was in a mood this morning…I think JD was happy he was off to kindy today for once!!! Abbey has been playing up the last 2 nights and it’s killing me….I didn’t shut my eyes at all last night until nearly 2am and then she was up probably an hour later so I ended up sleeping on the lounge with her attached to me and she still was on and off until she was properly up at around 7am…..I was just completely over everything….the filthy house, the whinging kids, my fatness, the toys everywhere, constantly sterilizing…the list goes on…anything tiny thing would set me off. Anyway, got the housework I wanted done and now I feel a bit better….I had a shower and changed back into my PJ’s and am still in them and plan on being until JD gets home at about 4pm….
I was thinking before how life used to be so relaxing and now I just seem to be in a constant rush and so anxious to get things done….showering, washing up, shopping, driving, hanging out the washing, eating – all in case someone starts losing it and I have to deal with them…I think cause I’m a control freak I have to have it all done and done my way so I cant deal with it when things aren’t in order….even when I’m typing this my heart skips a beat when I hear her cause I’m going to have to run off and leave…I need to get over it don’t I!!!
Anyway, other than my issues and Abbey’s sleeping and feeding issues we are alright. She has been rolling over – only to the right though and get’s the cranks cause she cant get her left arm out...
I’m desperately trying to find a bumbo seat for her but since I’m in the middle of nowhere and most of them on Ebay are pick up only I’m not having much success…a friend said she has one that she can get back of someone so fingers crossed she remembers and I can get it on Monday at Mothers Group…
Sorry for the whine…seems to be all that I do, but other people don’t get it so sorry I unleash it at your girls!! You’re the best!
