MSE Parents Club Part 9

Thanks everyone, i think i have jsut been over doing it in general. We have had tons of vistiors and not a min peace what with having a 4 year old as well. I don't remember bleeding like this when i had ds. But i have done tons of reading on it now and i thinki it is normal but i will keep an eye on it. Thanks. Baby harry was 7lbs 9oz but was taken pretty much straight the way to the neonatal ward. We got him home for christmas which was fab but he has to go back for tests. He lost a lot of weight and went down to 6lb 12oz but is slowly putting it on and is now 6lb 15 oz

Hi all, congrats Elastigirl!!

Well HV was v pleased with Toby, he now weighs 11lbs 9.5oz!! He is on the 91st centile for height!! We went to the Doctors for our 6 wk check. I was convinced Toby was gonna want feeding whilst in the waiting room but luckily he stayed asleep. He was all fine so that was great!!

However I am finding our car seat wayyyy to heavy for carrying toby anywhere, i only walked a short distance with it and my arm was nearly giving up!! Its a M&P Viaggio (sp?) so to put it on the wheels basically means taking the whole pram too. Does anyone know if theres a simple way round this that im missing or would i be better off looking to buy a new system of some sort? TIA!!

Fatty, my car seat stays in the car (same as yours but its the non SIP one), I use the pram or for short distances carry her or use the baby carrier.

Or you could buy a cheap small pushchair if your pram is too big?

Hi everyone, it's AM here.
I am not using my old username anymore, made this one earlier but thought I ight as well keep it.
Basically I'm sitting in a Premier inn with my boys, SS basically told me I'm not allowed to go home, not even allowed to stay in my town, if I do they will apply to the court for my boys.
I'm absolutely devestated! I cant beleive it, they took my sim card an everything, I can beleive this is happening, I managed to go back and grab some bits (lap top obviously) but they made me leave the boys in the ss building while I done it.
I have to go to a refuge tommorrow, but thats it now, I'm not allowed home, I'm gutted, keep crying, my mum met me at the house and we just cried too.
What am I going to do? I have to start again, not my choice, I was so happy staying at home

I'm glad someone real has it and likes it.
I'm a bit daft, thinking it can't be any good for that price - but it seems to be. I've just reserved another at Argos for us to keep. I think if we'd got an expensive one, we'd have only got one and would have swapped between cars - but this will make life easier having two for the price of one!


9th Feb was Vs due date. How quick did that year go! Did you find out what you were having with the other three?

I also thought that car seat would be rubbish, but it is fab and also means I am not panicking about having to get another:D I only need to panic about getting a people carrier so we can all fitl in:rolleyes:

I didn't with ds1, did with ds2 (via amnio, due to suspected problems), didn't with ds3...well did at 32wks, but knew it was a boy anyway, only got the sonographer to confirm it at that appt to prove dh wrong, as he kept trying to tell me it might be a girl:rotfl:
I keep thinking I need to find out to sort out rooms, but in reality whether boy or girl, ds3 is going in with the other two until baby4 is sleeping through as baby will be straight in own room and I do the night feeds in the room, so don't want to risk disturbing ds3!!!

Congrats and welcome elasti:D

DKAM - I am sorry things didn't go to plan, I really hope you get settled somewhere soon and not too far away from your family.

Oh huni! Are they going to offer you somewhere half decent this time? Did your ex stay away while you were at home with the boys?

Are you going to be able to go and get everything from the house? They are not really helping are they?

It will be alright. Perhaps this is a blessing in disguise? A new start, a bright new future. Hard to think like that I know. You will be okay and your boys will be okay. It sounds like your situation is being taken seriously, and hopefully you'll get all the help you need to make a brand new life for you and your boys. It might be hard at times, but there is one part of your life you don't need to leave behind - us! I know it is incredibly hard to be without all your stuff, that is something I focus on when life is in turmoil - how I miss my things. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help (I mean that, seriously. If there is anything I can do from here, just let me know. You could always relocate to near me )

Hi everyone, sorry DKA, really hope things work out for you, you've really had it tough for a while. XXX

Sorry I've not been on, had friends over from Holland for a few days, every time I snuck out and tried to get on I got caught and felt guilty.

DKA, sorry you are going through it so badly at the mo. And sorry that I can offer you no more than words, but continue being as strong as you have been up until now. And remember that you have the boys, everything else is incidental. Massive hugs to you hun, I wish there was more I could say or do. xxxxx

Harley, 4 nice dresses and 1 that you can decide if you like or not, 1 lovely cardi and a pink coco 'abonable snow baby' coat (that will need washed sorry, I just grabbed it out the jacket cupboard) are all packed up and I'll post them out next time I'm out. May not be for a few days because I can't drive right now with the ear infection.

You are a very lovely lady Tia. Thank you very much, and absolutely no hurry. Make sure you are all better and the roads are safe to travel first.

Elasti, welcome. Can't help with the problem but would suggest chatting to M/W or HV? I did notice I bled more just after a feed or if I had been running around a lot, but I didn't have a section so it could be different. xxxxx
