    Pigpen - I wouldn't want to have him removed from the house, because I do understand his POV, I just hate how he erupts at me about it. I can't force myself to love him, and his idea is that I stay with him until Keira is 16 - because that's not dysfunctional *roll eyes*

    I can understand that, if you feel you have been forced into having a child :( , I was going to get an abortion when pregnant with Keira, my stepdad changed my mind, promised me they'd help, do xyz for me, and they never did, but I'm glad I never did get it, she's amazing.

    I understand that.. but it can't possibly be good for either of you to be sharing the house yet not 'together' Though I can also see a few good points.. says I REALLY wishing I didnt have to do bed time tonight!!!

    Everyone promised me the world and not one person came through. Don't get me wrong I do love him very much but life would be SO much quieter and less aggressive without him.

    Not being 100% in mental health isn't so bad.. wouldn't do for us all to be hunky-dory now would it?! I quite like being slightly off my crump.. it keeps everyone else on their toes!

    Hello lovely ladies & Bruno :)



    EA if the story about your friends baby is true it's really sad :( :j for the free blender! When are you planning to start weaning?

    Kindof I meant to say the other day, never saw the convo on you weaning E but good for you doing what's right for you and your baby :cool: I must admit I have given Guy a bit of a suck on strawberry, watermelon & sweet potato already :o He seems to love it and I've seen no ill effects.

    Lol I was just talking about you :p

    I have to also admit to letting A suck on a strawberry (and maybe a piece of firmly held chicken :eek:)! He seemed to like it.

    I'm starving as usual. Can't wait for tea, oriental snacks from asda and dips with tortillas and veg sticks.

    I worry that she stalks me on here, is another reason i dont mention mse on fb.

    She has added some of my mse buddys though :rotfl:

    Delete her and don't worry about what she'll think. I had a good FB clearout a while ago and felt much better for it :)

    Actually I've got a question re tax credits that I could do with some help on. I've just filled my form in. As you all know you fill it in using last years info, however as my mat leave started on 27th April then I will be earning much less this year . I had full time hol pay for 1st 3 wks of tax, then 90& for 6 weeks then smp for the next 33 wks and then no pay till end of tax year. Will this make a difference to my claim?



    My nectar amazon vouchers finally came through at lunchtime so Ive ordered his swing. It was £5 cheaper than it was at 10am this morning :money:

    Phone and tell them your expected earnings for this year and you may get more. I phoned a few weeks ago as my earnings this year will be roughly half last year's and now we are getting more :)

    I probably didn't word it very well either.

    Thats why the story doesn't add up. If she is lying, i cant understand why??


    Im off now, my sister is here and we are going to paint the kitchen :D

    Bye x

    edit: My friend had her first scan today and everything is ok!!! :D Im sooo excited. I love other peoples pregnancys when im not pregnant :D

    A friend of a friend recently lied about being pg and then losing the baby, and about being raped (unrelated to pg) her stories never added up either. (No longer a friend I might add after she went for a joyride in friend's car while friend was asleep, ran into a taxi, drove back and put keys back, only found out about it after police got involved re. crash!! p.s. she has no licence)

    Hi Hammy. Yay for D having a good night. And more good vibes for continued good nights winging their way to you.
    Yes Alex obliged too :D.
    Thank you! I hope Alex and the Jack ;) behave tonight :D

    Oops, very sorry... :o Meant to send big *hugs* to Buttons and *good night* vibes for Hammy and David again xxx

    Thank you Elle, I must admit to have been sobbing not long ago. My lovely little D has been really suffering today and has had a full blown allergy attack to something unknown tonight. It really breaks my heart :( Plus just to put the cherry on my cake the flipping nursery is currently 29 degrees. ARGHHHHHH!!!!! I am not expecting a good night but I really appreciate your hugs and vibes.

    Buttons, massive hugs hon, you have been through so much in your life already. I truly wish you find happiness and contentment :A

    Mel you're brave planning to be there tomorrow!!

    As SJ said sadly I can't come tomorrow :( Need to go to the solicitor and go through loads of parp because of the weird way we're buying/selling, and tomorrow's the only day/time we could get whilst OH is off. Boo :( Will really try to be there for the 7th though :)

    Well Sj...if I'm entirely honest, he's also had some fish, chicken, banana...and lots of other things. Whoops :o

    Having a lovely week here - went to an abbey/park yesterday with OH, my little sis & Guy, the weather was gorgeous and we played frisbee all afternoon :D today we've been over to York & tomorrow the excitement of Bradford :rotfl: off the see the new house again on Friday which will be exciting, really feels like it's ours now and looks like we'll be in in about 4/5 weeks :eek: eek!

    Guy is great, and I totally swear by the amber necklace now! Since he's had it, the grumpy couple of evening hours have all but stopped, though the dribbling is still crazy :cool:
    Baby Boy arrived March 25th 2010 - 17 days late & 8lb 10oz :j

    :grouphug: Hammy, I hope you get some sleep xxx

    And Mel, I don't think you get a free sling if you go into labour at the meet ;)

    Maybe all the excitement of the England game will set you off.

    I feel horribly sick and poor Molly seems to have some sort of tummy trouble as well _pale_ I think we'll be heading off to bed soon.

    Hi everyone,

    caught up now,

    buttons hope you manage to sort something out soon one way or another,

    jake banged his head today:(:( was horrible, he was messing about on my bed and he's always letting himself fall back (i've told him a million times not too!!) and he was too close to the (wooden)headboard and he whacked his head on it, a lump came up straight away, i was crying my eyes out!!! its gone down loads now thankfully so hoping will be near enough gone tomorrow.

    he's got a sponsored walk tomorrow he's really looking forward to it, they're walking to the park and having a packed lunch and a play and then back again!

    EA - that's Tahlie atm too, it's particularly dangerous when were having nappy free time lol.

    On the subject on nappy free time what does everyone else do? Have been putting T on a disposable change mat under her play gym but now she moves about so much it's not ideal! Also going thru lots of change mats and there not cheap.

    Also anyone any tips for tummy time, any longer than about 30 seconds and T hates it. If we could do more and she would get better holding her head then I'd feel more confident about her sleeping on her front.

    And one more Q while my brain is in overdrive, when did everyone LO starting shedding tears? I read yesterday it happens between birth and 4 months but T hasn't had any yet.

    Have the munchies and want chocolate yet the only stuff we have in is OH toblerone for fathers day lol. Think I should get my but in gear and go to Tesco.

    I think every baby is different cos E has cried proper tears since he was 2 weeks old.

    And he hates tummy time too lol can hardly hold his head when he is on the ground but mint at holding it sitting up lol
