Congratulations on your pink bundle Wonder if im having more pink aswell..... I had the swine flu jab last year with ds and he is fine so i had the flu jab again this year - I thought i cant not have it as wouldnt want to risk being seriously ill (or even worse) because of the other kids...It is hard to know whats to do for the best
Hope you had a lovely xmas x

chevalier

have you actually done a current SOA so that you know how much as a minimum you have to cover each month?
the transition for weekly to monthly paid can be tricky. but i would suggest that all DD's need to be moved to after OH payday, as that would give you a better understanding perhaps of what is going on

sorry you have been so unhappy with this pregnancy. have you been telling your dr and mw this? You don't have to suffer in silence with it....

I was going to say the same as chevalier - might be worth doing a soa again and putting it on here. If it shows you should have money left at the end then maybe start a spending diary and see where it all goes?? Ive just done a soa again and im going to try and stick to it from next mth and have been filling in a spending diary as ive never done one before - it seems to be helping me a little as i do think more about spending before hand.

Sorry to hear your having a bad time at the mo. you can get prenatal depression aswell so if you are feeling pretty low a lot of the time it might be worth talking to your midwife next time?

Hope your arm doesnt hurt to much today - mine did the next day

Hey Smartie! Happy New Year. Sounds like you have had a few rough weeks hope you are starting to feel better.
Beware people TMI coming up .... re - the piles - my midwife prescibed me some very effective cream which really helped. I got them with DD2 and god they hurt. But the minute she was born they went so hopefully your will too - but def have a word with the midwife.
Yeah to nursery funding hopefully you will get a bit of a rest as pregnancy can be sooo tiring. Congrats on finding out you are having a pink baby - how exciting!! xxx

Today has been a NSD I will try to remember to track those in here.
I have been at work, whilst dp has been at home with DD.

Looks tight if you only have £90 a week left over for everything else :eek: I would say to do the soa that everyone on here does so that you can get a real idea of how much you need to find. here is a link http://www.makesenseofcards.com/soacalc.html maybe post it on the main DFW board and they will be able to help??? First thing that i thought of Do you get any benifits?? Like tax credits and child benifit?? Or are they already included on your income??
Hope you can sort it.....
Good luck with ebay

Sounds like things are going ok at the moment.

Sorry things are not great at the minute with OH, is there anyone to have the girls overnight for you, at least a night doing something together would be a start, even if you only stay in with a dvd.

mummy2mygirls

Hope things with DP are better today. Like penny said can anyone bbysit for the night?? Even if you cant go out you could have a nice night in and knowing you dont have to get up early/in the night at all might help you both relax and enjoy yourselfs? Try not to beat yourself up about things in the past - everyone can make a mistake or two in there lifes
