Hello

I've caught up now, so feel a bit more up on all the news.

Thanks again for all the hugs and support. I felt very important to you all, which meant a lot to me when I've felt in an unusually dark place! I've been looking after myself and have decided that I need to assist my emotional recovery with King Do ribs from the chinese (I've already had my dinner so this is shameless comfort eating!). I thought it was better to join in than to mope so here I am...

Too many things to comment on, but a few are:

Sami- great poo story
Bruno- you're an :A
tine- have a lovely time with your mummy. And do make sure you let her spoil you, and have lots of naps. You being around may impair alex's granny bonding, so I forbid you to stay awake!
Button- you have the patience of a saint with that cat it must be love
emlou- you deserve every penny, and I really hope you feel freed up to claim it, we're on your side :T
searching-yay about the maternity leave:j:j
jvic- I'm in cardiff too, and if ever I can be of any help with anything baby related, feel very free to PM me. have you tried any mum and baby activities?
r.mac- ((((((hugs)))))) and well done for making your feelings clear. I hope you see and feel some good changes soon.

I'm sure there's more but I forget.

Love Weezl x

He spent 1 hour 45 minutes sobbing his heart out. I kept stopping the car in lay-bys to try to calm him and he stopped crying whilst I was stood by his car door...only to start again as soon as we set off again. He absolutely broke my heart.

Aiee it is just the worst thing when they are upset in the car! I feel your pain MFD I struggle with Elijah crying at the best of times, let alone when he is strapped in behind me and there's heavy traffic or whatever...

Alexandra seems to have taken to doing one huuuge poop late afternoon - but quiet ones so first you know is when they overflow the nappy :eek:
This time the victim was the jungle swing... it's now in the washing mashing with another innocent by-stander... Raffi! Oh I hope she doesn't realise he's gone :eek: He'll be back in an hour! Honest!

:eek: Poor Raffi. I keep meaning to ask what raffi is. Is he a giraffe?

Hi Weezl... come talk rubbish with us, that'll help

rmac I hope you got things straight with DH this afternoon and you feel a bit better about everything now. One thing I forgot about this morning which has helped for us was that DH's main bugbear was coming home to a messy living room where he can't relax, so we had a major push together to make it tidy, so I just have to keep it tidy during the day. And he knows that if i'm doing that he might have to do the bathroom or whatever I've not got done in the daytime. But because the lr is tidy and he can relax there he doesn't mind as much. Don't know if somethink like that would help for you? Agree to focus on whatever bothers him most, on the understanding that he does whatever you ~would~ have got done instead.

Jillie talk this through as much as you can with midwifes/doctors beforehand so you know exactly what will happen. i think that not knowing whats going on at the time is more scarey and if you know whats coming then you will be more calm and focused. i hope that you get the birth you want but be open to take whatever is required

thanks caz
the mw we saw yesterday, runs the prentcraft course we had just strated an she said that anything we want to go throught with her we can after the next session (04 sep) i also have appointment next wed with my usual mw so can get some infor from her. then its hospital again on 07 sep, and i want it all (or as much as possible) sorted that day.

have read up a little today on babycentre and am just checking the nhs choices website now for some more info.

i think, like you said, once i know what to expect i will be fine.

i really appreciate all your help.

Tine - That all sounds very exciting, going off to America:) and Poor Raffi:(

Elle - I like that bouncer, one thing though....it looks very flat lying. I wonder if it sits a bit more upright than that...only asking because my friend had a very flat lying bouncer and her baby ended up with bad flat head syndrome (although she did leave the baby in it a hell of a lot)

Weezl - glad to see you, and you are right....you need to get chatting and take your mind off of things, as upsetting as they may be...just make sure you take care of yourself too:)

Can't remember what else I was going to say now...oh Kai took the stinky nappy toll up to 5 by the end of the day (well his day) He usually has one stinker after brekki and that's him done:D
I had to go and fax some letters to the Uni so went down to the library to do it, it was a bit expensive imo £1.19 for the first sheet and 57p for each further sheet!!! Had no choice though as our scanner has died so couldn't scan and e-mail like I would of usually.
