    I see. Yup, i've come across some nasty people on here if i'm honest-but had some very supportive PM's telling me not to leave the boards and we reported the abuse.

    And another stupid question...


    Is it safe for Benjamin to wear a bib all the time? His dribbling is getting really bad and I am worried that he is going to get a rash on his chest...he can go through a t-shirt and vest in 5 minutes.


    Bandana bibs - we had them in various patterns and colours!

    (Also once we discovered the amber teething necklace, DS stopped dribbling so we didn't need them any more )

    Hi Guys
    Just posting and running, I assume one of my FB friends let you know that I had Edgar on Saturday at 6:13am, 8lb 4oz (frankly massive compared to what I was expecting! No wonder I got stretchmarks!)
    He was born at home according to plan :D

    tonighit has gone from bad to worse. Feel like i'm losing it. Pretty sure they are going to take the baby away if i carry on like this. I don't know what to do. I'm stuck here till saturday and its awful. I keep trying but oh just wants to punish me i think. I don't know how i'm going to get through tonight let alone a few days. I've done something stupid. I really don't know what to do i really don't. I just want to leave. Wish i wasn't so far away. Wish i'd passede my test so i could drive myself. Argh. Sorry for the rant. I just feel so alone and so broken.

    feelie, I dont know if anyone else is on here, so I thought I would ask if you are OK? I have been reading your posts, so know a bit about whats going on, and remember a few of the things you said on the pregnancy thread. Have a rant if you want someone to listen :)

    <- Pretty upset by a post on MSE, really didn't think people could be so cruel.
    feelie, do report it to abuse, you can also send a PM to the Board Guide (Glad for Discussion Time)

    Where do you want to go then? Can you get a taxi with baby back to Mum's? Do tell your mum what's going on. I don't know all the ins and outs, but even allowing for the fact that you may not be entirely rational right now, I've not been impressed by your accounts of what your OH has said and done.

    Feelie I'm here too, please try not to feelbad about that other thread - that post was well out of order (I reported it too). Have you tried talking to your oh about your situation and how you are feeling? If he really is trying to punish you then I second the advice above, your mums would probably be a much better place for you to be in the short term.

    Every time that happens, go and re-read this one. And no, it's not my "I am doing a good job" chant, although that one wouldn't do any harm either, it's by another very sensible and sensitive poster.

    YOU ARE DOING A GOOD JOB!
