I wonder if I leave it too long, if I'll ever do it. Perhaps if I get it over and done with now, I can get back on medication, start therapy and perhaps make a long-term recovery. Physically pregnancy was tough, but it was also my happiest time.

Can you get 'double' PND I wonder?

I'm unlikely to be 100% for quite a while, and as I can't take medication while breastfeeding, it might not actually be that bad, especially with OH working part time.

i think that you get even better at hiding it than facing it feelie, my down days are increasing and good days- what are they?
things are not good the now and i just had charlie let himself out the front door and stand in the middle of the road while i was making tea(older 2 were meant to be playing with him), so have now convinced myself that social services will be at the door. between him doing that and the way erin has been screaming people must wonder what im doing to these kids. i locked myself in my room and cried and when OH came in i was even worse.

I don't actually feel all that bad at the moment, the depression is manageable, its back to the 'normal' level that I'm used to. Its mainly the anxiety that is a problem, but can't see that ever resolving itself.

Oh, and I'm definitely not planning anything, just trying to think positively about this 'mishap'. When I test negative I'll no doubt be back here telling you all how relieved I am!

I'm still here. Still have a bun in the oven

Had around 15 hours of mild contractions with mild pain, about 4 anhour. Managed to sleep through them so knew they weren't that bad. Have only had a handful today (despite convincing DH that some of his magic may help things ) so guess it was just a false start. Boo.

Imogen's ballet show was a bit of a disaster. She was just in one dance and made her entrance already crying, "But I'm a bit too tired,". I got myself down to the front and sat on the floor and she ran straight over to me, sobbing. She did go back up once, but came straight back again and, when the dance was over (Twinkle Twinkle, she's always had issues with it ) we took her out so she didn't wail through the rest of the show! Then on the way home she demanded to do more dancing and was really upset when I reminded her that it's hols now and she won't be going back until Sept

My freezer is in three sections - milk, icecream and everything else. Strawberry Cornettos and Feasts are my current favourites.

I did actually PMSL at this!

3 im am so sure we have the same baby? erin always has to have something over her head to sleep lol! she has been up every hour last night to be fed this is 2 nights running and im like a zombie, she is such a moan today and unless um shaking her about or walking with her she isnt happy?

oh ice cream i love the bounty one at the moment! i also have creme egg and dairy milk in the freezer!

And can we stop the ice cream talk please? We have none and I'm about to get in the car to drive to Warrington to 'help' Sami with her stock of B&J's. How on earth you can have 7 tubs in the freezer I have no idea. Wouldn't last a night here...

Any more labour dust most appreciated. DH is now on strike from his 'duties' as he's declared it's obviously not working. He has suggested a curry tomorrow eve though!

Bruno - hope you get a better eve. I'm a bit believer in the Baby Whisperer's theory that it takes 3 days to make or break a routine. Day 1 is hard, day 2 is easier, day 3 is hardest! A full night's sleep will be soooo worth it though, eventually.

Thanks Lu, looking good so far! After a very short night last night he was pretty yawny all day, and went down at his normal bedtime (7.15) with no complaints. We'll see whether he makes it through the evening, my fingers are crossed but I doubt it!

Sorry to hear it was a false start, very frustrating. Clock must really be ticking now though! If we don't see a post from you once an hour we shall all assume you are giving birth

Evening all. I still can't keep up with you lot. Full of cold today, and Izzy seems to be coming down with it too. Lots of boobie milk to the rescue i hope.

After making a big effort to give Izzy more snacks over the past 2 days she slept really well last night. Went into her room for a feed and bed last night about 8pm and it took 5 mins to get her down, then she woke up once for 10 mins. She woke me up at 5:45, but was happily singing to herself so I dozed till she started crying at 6:15 and got up. Tonight she went down just as easily, so I'm hoping we do as well.

Lu - sounds like you need to go running up and down the stairs or something! I'm sure it won't be much longer if you're having some contractions though. I bet you will have a baby by Wednesday at the very latest Are you having sweeps and whatnot?

cazscoob

poor imogen! do you know why she has a problem with that dance? fingers crossed you go soon Lu T and sorry for the ice cream talk lol!

Mooki - those pots might do you to start with but they only hold 2oz each so you will need 2 or 3 of them to make up a feed...

They will be really useful for weaning though and they are very pretty!

There is a phantom thanker around tonight again...it says 2 people thanked my last comment but I can only see mooki


Lu - sending you labour dust


I really need to be ironing :rolleyes:
