MSE Parents Club Part 7

Krystaltips

Well last night didn't really go to plan.... She went from grumping into full blown crying with tears... So I ended up going and feeding her again... Put her down before she was fully asleep and she cried, so I picked her up and rocked her a little and put her back down again, her eyes closed straight away and that was her until 5:30... Will try the awake thing again tonight... Although I really think we need to move the cot to the other side of the room from the door... Will broach the subject with hubby again tonight...

Aimee's temperature seems to have gone this morning but that means nothing in this house... Have a small pot her wee and shall be showering, dressing and off down the Drs with it... Just as soon as I deal with the nappy of the noisy exploding baby down there...

Does Aimee suffer from UTI's a lot Krystal? I think I've had one once but not sure, kept feeling like I had to pee every 2mins and it was an uncomfortable feeling (not painful) I just wanted to rip my vagina off

Well I did a test - negative, AND my periods came during the night.

So I guess I got what I wanted, so why am I upset about it?

Mouth rapeage at the dentist at 11, I'm sure that will be something to really cry about.

Morning! everyone having a lie in? :mad: @ you if you are
I was up most of the 2hrs between 2 and 4am oh how I enjoyed myself :rolleyes:

Oh, so was I!!!! Just couldn't be bothered to put lappy on!
On this new milk he's gone from 4hrs in the night to 3hrs and the 2am feed was fine but he wouldn't settle, finallly put him down at 4.15am and then he was up again at 5am :rolleyes:

Need to do some housework in prep for RL friends and IL's (not til Friday I know!) and need to go and buy party food from ASDA for my Halloween party mwah mwah mwah (you get the picture!)

Keely - you are not a bad mum. People worry far too much about breastfeeding, I did - but once I switched to formula Jack was happy and so was I and that is what matters. Yes some people can BF and do so for ages but others can't or choose not to. Please don't say you are a bad mum - maybe tell OH how you feel so you can talk about it.

Tigs - sorry you are feel down. Is there not a consultant who can decide what his stats should be before the alarms go off? That way there can be bit more of a routine for Andrew
(Sorry, I don't really know enough about it so might be way off)
Like MM said try and get out of the hospital for a bit even if it's just for a walk. WIll be thinking of you, Marley and Andrew xx

:mad: Grrr - crappy lappy - Grrr :mad:


Anyway:


Tigs - ((HUGS)) hun. If it is any help at all we ALL have those days where everything seems a bit too daunting and we have nothing to cope with like you do.

Tigs, I agree hugely. I had a down day yesterday and am definately not coping with all that you are. I think you're amazing :A xxx


Em - I meant to say I think I found my CM today. Feeling more positive about her by the hour! Hubby seems keen too!


I've got a bit confused, sorry , is she instead of hubby or as well as him? She sounds fab

seth has a nightlight, but thats our fault cos we thought it better to use one than to have to turn the big light on to find his dummy in the middle of the night also, in the flat we lived in til he was 3-4 months old there was a street light outside and we didnt have blackout curtains, so he got used to it being lighter in there too, and when we moved the nightlight became even more necessary. in the flat, we used to turn the nightlight on when we went to bed, he was quite happy to not have it on! it isnt a bright one, its one of those plug in auto ones

emlou, you can get glow in the dark dummies, if that might help dispense slowly with the nightlight (if you want to that is!). Welcome back, I missed you

DH -phoned about 8pm to see how DS1 was doing, fine I said. I woke Amber up for her feed so I could try and get her in bed upstairs for 9pm and what happened just as she wakes up fully and decides that she needs her milk now? DS1 throws up all over the bathroom floor because he has to wash his hands after he is sick and he then trails it through the hall and into his room to go get the bowl! Course it also manages to get everywhere meaning it was a good 20min clean up job while Amber is screaming her little head off because mummy woke her up then !!!!!!ed off!

No shopping for me tommorrow then, humph.

Anyway, I'm off to bed because I feel downright miserable for no reason at all.

Hugs Tia poor you. Reading about your evening though I do think you were allowed to feel a little down, yick!!!

Off topic for me normally, but i know my husband wants baby number two at some point, probably in the next couple of years if we can move. However i still don't know if i want to, or more to the point can do it again. I still worry a lot about the whole breastfeeding problems again and letting down another baby. I also think i'm a rubbish mom in general anyway. I wouldn't want to upset my husband, but i know he'd love another one to complete our family. Some days i think yes i could do it, other days i worry too much over everything!!

keely.

Keely - as everyone else has said, you're obvioulsy not a bad mum! If you were a bad mum, you wouldn't be worrying about iykwim!
And you haven't let him down! He's fed, healthy and happy - no matter where the milk came from!
And just because you struggled with b/f this time, doesn't mean it would be the same again. Just relax, if it happens it happens, if not, it doesn't really matter!
I fed No.1 and No.3 with no problems at all - I fed No.2 for two weeks, and for those two weeks i was in pain and mostly crying!
And tbh, there is no difference in the three children, they're all equally healthy, happy and fed!


Good morning everyone. :wave:

Buttons Hugs! Hormones are funny things! I wanted to a pos test when I had all three, but still cried when I got the result I'd wanted!

money_maker_3

aww buttons, its just emotions getting to you. You said yourself that if it happened it happened but you would rather it didnt, but now maybe you are going to think about it a bit more ??? If you wanted another one, would it not be good to have it soon so that you can loose all the baby weight and get you op and be a yummy mummy without the risk of getting pregnant after you have it ??? Just a thought, feel free to ignore me completly

money_maker_3

Hi everyone who has just come on Glam, is he keeping more down? Or less each time and more often? Hope he settles for you soon

Weezl, hope you are feeling better today Hope your down day wasnt for anything too serious

Morning 3

Keely, if worrying about stuff and not being able to BF were the reason not to try for baby number 2 then I'm up a creek without a paddle!:rotfl: I think you are a great mum, especially I like your loyalty to E. Whenever you have to post that things have been a bit ropey, you are always ery careful to point out that it isn't him. I think that's extraordinary and lovely and I think it's very easy to be in a grump and just say 'blimmin kids' and loads of people do it in our society. xxx

*fingers crossed for baby girl's good night*

AF, I might have missed it, but did baby girl's cube arrive ok?

Suddenly got bit worried not everyone got theirs! :eek:

Morning all,

Keely - you can't be a bad mum otherwise surely your hubby would not want to have more kids with you?! BF is not for everyone. I cried every day for about 2 weeks after failing to master BFing with Holly. I still feel bad about it, but I know it's not my fault and there is nothing I could have done as I gave it a bloody good try and nearly had a total breakdown trying due to stress/pressure/hormones! She is absolutely fine on bottles and will definintely be no worse for it. Don't be so hard on yourself. xx
