Hi to all! Just a quick one as gotta get back to organising for the move (can't believe only 3 sleeps to go!!)
Tasia - sounds very frustrating to me... You need to look after yourself and hubby needs to pull his head in. Maybe you should try some counselling? Often a third (unrelated) party can help put things into perspective for both partners. It's not a healthy environment for your son to be constantly yelling at each other just to get yourself heard. It's also not healthy for him to see his dad treat mum like this as it will set in his mind how women should be treated (or you could get lucky and it will teach him how women SHOULDN'T be treated). At any rate, it's bad for you both. I'm also concerned about post natal depression. You may not have it, but I'm sure all the stress and frustration certainly wouldn't help keep it away.
Big hugs to you, sweetheart...
And I'd be avoiding the baby #2 thing until you know hubby is worth it. Don't want two kids having to deal with having such a hopeless dad.
Wow. Only 3 dayssss?!?
I hope everything is going well with the organisation and goes smoothly on the day of the move.
wowowow!
for your post for Tasia, SW. You always manage to say the right stuff in a perfect way. I wish I could say things like that. I have trouble getting it out of my head.
We have such a supportive group. I'm really thankful to be in this group with all you kind, thoughtful, wonderful mummies and daddy.

SW- thanx for that sweety. It is fustrating. I am going to suggest councelling to him if things get worse. If i mention that to hubby he'll say wat r u talking about we r fine.
you're right it's not healthy for us to yell in front of Jonathan , that's why now i try not to yell cause he will pick up on it & we both don't want that. I'm teaching him from now to respect woman and not to yell at them, i know he doesn't understand.
No i don't have post-natal depression if i did he would know about it. But i'm not going to lie there is stress if he's not helping. His eczema is going really well, i'm using hydrocortisone cream, i'm not looking forward to summer as it will flare up. thanx sweety
Tenny- yeah sw has the answers for everything, she sounds like my friend, i really appreciate wat she is saying & she means well.
Missy- welcome back sweety
ok i'm off have a great night ladies and bear
take care and keep smiling
Tasia: Big for you hun! Your DH needs to be a lot more supportive of you! Did you go tonight? How did it go if you went? Personally I wouldn't have gone (depends on the occassion of course) I would have made DH go on his own! I know what its like to have the same old arguments all the time, its almost pointless discussing anything cause you know what the outcome will be! We are all here for you, so vent away! I'm always here too if you want to chat! Oh I'd hold off on baby #2 too, its not fair on you either to go through that as well as look after 2 young kids.
Kell: J was fine this morning, he had a great sleep in my bed haha Only his bed wasn't ready when we got home tonight so Chris put him in our bed and his pull ups leaked all over my bed! I was about to change it after I fixed up the washing too but didnt get there in time. He has a matress protector but he had wet that and I hadn't put it back on his bed after I washed it, luckily my bed had the underlay and it didn't go through that. When does BigW's 12c photos end? I want to get some more done and silly me left it till the last minute with the Harvey Norman ones.
Pix: YAY for Beth!! I bet she loved seeing her Daddy!! Great to hear you had a good night out!
Mez: How are you? J is much better thanks hun!
Tenny: Thanks, the matress turned out fine too luckily! My niece is so naughty like that! GL with your xmas shopping, this year and when I was on leave with J is the only times I have had the shopping done early.
Missy: Welcome home! Glad you had a great time!
It was so hot here today! I love the heat but I was too tired to enjoy it. I got to sleep in until 9am this morning (very rare!) although I did feed Ashlea at 6am. This afternoon we went to SIL's for a swim which was sooo nice!
AF has gone already, she was only here for 3 days and it was so light anyway....who knows whats going on there as I thought the 1st one was meant to be heavier?? Anyone know? Its probably different for each person. If AF has to come every month now I hope its stays as this one was haha.
Quiet day tomorrow I think, I have neglected the house all weekend.
Well I'm off to finish some washing and clean up a little....less I have to do tomorrow.
How r we all this morning? Well I had an ok night last night. Was mostly inside. My mil was ok with me, she held Jonathan & we spoke but not wat happened about sat night. I was inside with the girls & their bubbas. There are these 3 girls that they they are top **** lol. But that's another story.
Tannis- hey sweety, I did end up going last night, it was ok. It was my hubby's uncle name day, it's a greek traditional thing we do.
Feeb- thanx sweety, I really appreciate it
Mary- thanx sweety. it it wasn't his uncle's nameday I wouldn't have gone.
Thanx guys for all ur support I really appreciate it soooooooooooo much. I wish we all lived closer, damn it!!
ok beautiful peoplez i'm off to feed my baby boy. Then going to get something to eat mmmmm curry laksa soup. Then i will be putting jup the xmas tree 2d.
Have a great day everyone. Take care & keep smiling

Tasia - I'm glad last night went alright. I hate when something happens then it's like the other people forget it took place. It makes me even more mad.
We put up our Christmas tree todayyyyyyyy! It was fun. Just need DP to help me put it where I want it cause I'm a shorty.
Well just relaxing after cooking dinner and washing up. Liam is in bed and will wake any moment for his bottle. Callum is playing nicely with his thomas trains. Liam started some farex up at mums house. He loves it. He is only having 1tsp at the moment but after you put the milk in it it ends up being about 5tsp but he doesnt have it all. But he watches me and when the spoon comes to him he opens his mouth way before its near it...lol..so funny. Ill keep him on this for about 1 - 2 weeks then give him some at night as well. Then Lunch after another 1 -2 weeks. He seems to be handling it ok with no upset tummies.
Anastasia well done on the teaching your little on to respect girls/ladies. The girl across the road from me has two boys, one in kindergarden and the other 4. The way she talks to them Doc's should be called. ( eg: get here you f*cken little C88t. Ill f*cking smash you if you done get here now) its is so bad. Those boys are going to grow up with no respect for anyone.
Tannis dont you love AF when she only comes for a little bit. Mine havent been to bad but im waiting and sure it will end up crap the way it use to be. How nice going for a swim. I cant wait till its stinking hot so I can go in my pool. Has to be really hot for me to go in.
Feeb and eveyone one else thanks so much for the welcome back. Was nice up at mums.
Tenny yay on the christmas tree. Ours is up and so are the lights now. Ill put up some photos soon on FB and alittle vid when its night.
Tan.. oh cool.. yeh i still need to get one for Keira's bed. Though she has a built in one on her matress, still i wanna put one on just in case. Um.. have no idea when it ends. Ohh wooo wooo that AF is gone!! Hope next month is the same!!
Missy.. welcome hoooome Ohh woo big boy Liam and his food! Im still gonna delay Keira for a little while.. lol too much hassel atm and she still eats like a sparrow.. hmm similar to her brother atm! lol Did you get my house number? i know i asked you already that lol but cant remember what you said. You still coming Wed?
Tenny.. yay for the christmas tree!
Had a girlfriend and her bubba over today. Was a nice day.
Hmmm thats about all..
Gonna go find some goodies to munch on.
This is just a quick one. We are back from Sydney Reaghan did realy well, with the travel and no place to have her proper sleeps durring the day. Yesterday we spent 6 hours walking around, never again am I taking the pram around darling harbour, will onlu use the ergo carrier if I go again, but main I was at harbour side and the parents room sucks.
Hey folks
Hope everyone had a good weekend.... Went into town today and just happened to run into some work friends in Pitt St Mall! So had lunch with them. Other than that just did some errands and caught up on dishes etc. Weighed Beth today at the chemist - 6.92 kilos (with her clothes on) so she's doubled her birth weight... no wonder I get a sore arm from carrying her now!
sweetpea what were you up to in Sydney? glad you had a good trip!
Missy OMG solids already! I guess that its about that time though! can't believe Beth is nearly four months already! it's going too quick!
SW - sending you calm moving vibes!
Anastasia sorry to hear things are so strained with your DH at the moment. Hope it gets better soon, but feel free to come in and vent anytime.
Tannis good luck with speaking at the breastfeeding clinic.... can't remember when it is, but thinking of you, I'm sure you'll do fine!
Tenny yay for the Christmas tree! Know how you feel hon I'm a shorty too
big to Kel, Mel, Mez, and everyone!
Kel
Pixie, was in sydeny because my dh had a course to attend and work paid for us to stay there so only had to pay petrol and food, we stay 15 min walk from darling harbour was great. But looking forward to a weekend at home as the weekend before was in Melbourne.
Tasia: Glad you had an ok night. I wish we all lived closer too! YAY for getting the xmas tree up! I can't wait to do ours!
Missy: Thats great Liam is taking the farex ok. It has to be pretty hot for me to get in too, I am a sook when it comes to cold water haha, it takes me about 20mins just to get in!
Kell: Yeah I'd put one on too, keep it nicer for longer. I'm hoping AF forgets to visit next month haha
SweetPea: Raegan's a good girl traveling well! Other than having the pram, hope you enjoyed yourself!
Pix: OMG Beth is doing fantastically! Ash was 6.5kg last Fri with clothes, but I'll get her 4mth check up by the CNH and they will check her bare weight. I'm speaking tomorrow night! I hope I don't forget LOL.
Spent all day shopping again, I really have to stop! I was meant to be staying home today! We went for another swim today (where my nephew left the pool gate open last time) I kept my eye on Jayden at all times and made sure the gates were shut! Jayden didn't want to come home so he stayed there for dinner and might stay the night, although the kids have school tomorrow so he probably shouldn't. I feel a little lost without him, Chris and Ashlea are asleep. Chris doesn't want him to stay the night, but TBH I'm looking forward to a good nights sleep! Might wake Chris up and see what he wants to do.
Well had a lovely weekend. Spend some time with my DH yesterday and today as he took the day off! We went to the health nurse today for Isabel's 4 month check up. she is doing really well her stats are:
Weight - 6.34kg
Height - 62cm
HC - 41cm
I am really happy and she is in the 50th percentile. She has hit all her milestones too woohoo, like holding, rolling, standing etc and the nurse was very happy. Oh and she is a worm Angie couldn't get over how much she moves around.
Today we put up our Christmas tree I love it! I will put a couple of pics on FB if you guys want to see.
Ok I'll do personals tomorrow need to go and dream feed Izzy. Have a lovely night all.
Just popping in quickly i think i can hear Keira stirring.
Had a terrible night with poor Keira.
She's just been so clingy.. but shes a baby that doesnt like to be rocked to sleep either.. so last night she was crying when we put her down and crying when we picked her up. Gave her panadol as we thought she must be teething. Shes had little signs, just general clinginess etc. But anyway got her so drift off so i went and hopped back in bed. 20 minutes later she woke with the most loudest cry. Crying hysterically. Wouldnt stop. Was trying to stop her from crying.. nothing worked. Gave her some more bottle as she only had 150mls. She sculled that down. Started crying again. Took her into our room as was starting to wake Jesse. Gave her to DH. Thought maybe we'll give her some more panadol as its fine to double dose. Went to put it in her mouth and she vomitted everywhere. So i ran and got some puke rags and she continued to vomit. She stopped, gave her her dummy. DH went and changed her clothes as she was covered. And then she was back to her old self.. squeeling and talking. No idea what happened. Guess little miss had an upset tummy? So got her to go to sleep. Went to bed.. 1/2 hour later here some russelling in our room. Wake DH thinking it was a mouse.. was a bloody big ****roach. So he got that. Back to bed. 1/2 hour later Jesse starts. DH goes in.. he had just been bitten by a mozi. 1/2 hour later hear this buzzing mozzi in our room. Ehhh!!!!! Couldnt find it..
Hmmm so now my anxiety is sky rocketing. I was paranoid about Jesse before.. now i am her. She was just coughing and now im almost in tears worrying shes going to be sick.
Anyways.. i better get her up and feed Keira and pray she doesnt bring it back up.
