Afternoon everyone! hope everyones ok?

am not sure if im gonna be able to make the meet,dont drop jake at nursery till 12.15 so its going to be 1pm at the earliest by the time i get there, then by the time i've parked and got myself to nandos you'l probably all be ready for going!! I will come to the next one, half term/school hols would be ideal for me! I'm sure you'll all have a great day anyway, x

Kids had their swine flu jabs yesterday, they'r both fine no temps or anything yet!! Jake cried when he had his, jasmine didnt even notice just sat their sucking her dummy lol, must be all that padding shes got on her thighs bless her!

those kids are on the news again, the 2 and 3 year old, so so sad, im gonna have to turn over i think!

Oh and talking of stretchmarks on bellys, well mines an absolute saggy mess!! jake asked me why i had a stripes on my belly the other nite lol, i need to go on that programme embarrasing bodies n get a free tummy tuck!!! x

Mrs_Moc

I got a shampoo sheild of ebay so hopefully I can get him to allow me to wash his hair before it turns into dreadlocks :eek:
Im really looking forward to our mini meet up :T

I have loads of stretchmarks as well, some are a bit purple atm but will hopefully turn silver like the others

Jakesmummy

Not sure if pookie lives here or is just from here.

:kisses:thank you everyone :kisses: you are all so supportive and i knew i could count on you all xxxx

hi everyone,

sorry everyone was so kind and posted so many respones i couldn't multiquote them all (how do you all do more than 3?? -- in another window?)

alot of the responses made me cry (but i wouldn't take much at the minute) and you are all so understanding. it was so hard for me to post what i was feeling but i knew it was the right place as everyone else is in the same boat as me.

it's kind of hard to keep out of the politics (or at least it affecting me) due to my role and the company set up. i was such a workaholic before (and MFD will agree i think, she told me off on more than one occasion when pregnant for putting work first - she was right to do so of course).

i just really need to focus on enjoying the night time i have with her bath/bed etc

I have a gazillion stretchmarks too, can I join the club? And not all are pregnancy related...:(

AF, I know exactly how you feel. I am going back in 9 days full time and am dreading every second of it, but at the same time, know I need a life outside the home.
I made a point of doing something purely for Jasmine on my day off, and will do the same again now with both of them. It could have been anything, like soft play, the park, go for an ice cream, or when she was a bit older, I have taken her for a manicure a few times
It does get easier, but you will still have days when it gets bad again, you just have to tell yourself you are doing it for her !! and make the most of every minute you have at home, even if it means that your house isnt spotless or all the toys arent put away ! xx
