MSE Parents Club Part 12

Gosh that is a lot of tests! I have only done the 2, both to confirm pregnancy with H!

God I feel so sorry for KK's kids. The paps are just flashing away in the little girl's faces. And they know the names of the paps as it's just part of their life. What a mental way to live. She's clearly mixed up, but the kids will grow up like that too, you have to think.

ETA - Boo, why has your avvie disappeared too? Are you hiding from people like Glam?

Thanks Krystal

I have the cot up against the bed now but I woke at 3.30 this morning and C had worked her way onto our bed and had her head down at my feet, her feet at my knees and another 6 inches and she'd have been off the end. I had to move her and it woke her up! Perhaps the pillows on the floor trick may be employed tonight. lol
Will have to bite the bullet soon and get her back into her cot. Her sleeping is getting a bit better and I would hope that another month or so and she will be going to sleep without a boob in her mouth (she turns aways now, wriggles and then drops off) and sleeping for longer I think for the past three nights she has not woken between midnight and 5.

Not sure if the Ibuprofen for her teeth is affecting this though? It's stopping her waking up screaming at least!

ETA MFD, when I leave her at the mo, when I come home/pick her up she doesn't seem to give a damn that I'm back! lmao. I'm sure that will change though as she gets bigger (crosses fingers)

Off to bed now, OH up at 5. Night all, will catch up tomorrow. I don't post often but thanks for being here when I need a different POV xxx

I'm not looking forward to Erin getting more mobile in bed, last night she was rotating round so sometimes I was getting hit by her head and sometimes her feet. Also I'm worried about her climbing out of her cot (we have a bedside cot) but if we lower it it will be lower than our bed which wont work. It might be pillows all round for us.

The program I watched last night about fatherhood said that by the time babies are toddlers they prefer their fathers anyway because fathers take on the 'entertainer' role. They said it will even go as far as toddlers walking around their mothers to get to their fathers for play

Boo glad Isla went down ok. Alfie went down ok but woke up crying half an hour or so ago. I left it a bit to see if he settled himself but he just got worse so had to go up, calpol him and feed him. Back asleep now so possibly just that pesky tooth!

Absolutely! Right around my living room floor!

Aw - is that just because you are home alone? Do you still roll if hubby is around?

I keep thinking that I look so pregnant that there must be SOMETHING growing inside me (other than a KFC mountain )

I was uploading a new one the other day and it kept failing so in the end I had no avvie. I was getting too angry :rotfl: I should have another go now really.

Did it also say that when the child falls over or is hurt in some way they are likely to run around their father to get to their mother for comfort? Didn't watch it, wish I had now. Might see if I can find it on repeat.

nothing wrong with a KFC mountain

hubby had a dream that we had twin boys (i'm sure they'd be easier that LO ) ... i said i'd want to lose some weight before having any more, to which he replied "why, you'd only have to put it back on again"

MFD - hugs for the idiot at your work. Is he now wearing his dangly bits as earrings?

SJ - Yay for teeth! :T I was really worried about the feeding with teeth thing but 6 weeks on and no close calls whatsoever yet.

*Touch wood* tonight I took Isla up for her bath at 7.15 and she's been asleep since. Every so often I hear the odd rumble on the monitor but I think she's just rolling around the crib.

I wanted to point Tia in the direction of this zebra print dress

I went to sort through Isla's next size clothes earlier and realised she doesn't have a single 6-9 month babygrow! I can feel an ebay/town centre splurge coming on. Actually, I tell a lie. My fantastic cousin who spoils Isla rotten sent a parcel today which is the leopard babygrow, hat and bib I loved on her in the next size up I'd mentioned in passing it had been one of my fave fun outfits on her and I was gutted when she outgrew it :rotfl:

Love that dress.

I'm glad Isla went down okay. H has been up about ten times already. He is currently asleep on our bed, surrounded by pillows. I'm not sure whether to put him in his cot when I go up, or leave him on our bed as OH is at work tonight anyway.

H rolled off our bed a couple of weeks ago. It was daytime and one second he appeared to be nowhere near any edge, I turned for a second and next thing I saw he was going head first towards the floor. He was fine though, barely a cry! But it taught me a lesson!

We had a competition at our BF picnic today- prizes for the eldest and youngest BF babies there. Anyone care to guess the age of the eldest, just for fun?

My SIL is fab but I am so jealous that she will spend more time with C (and so will Daddy cos of his shifts) than I will. It'll only be a short term thing (Boss is hoping to keep me on but I am hoping to get pg during this spell of work (Oct for 6-9 months)) but it is eating me up just thinking about it.

Does everyone else feel this jealousy? I don't feel guilty, just very jealous! Could send C to nursery/childminder but the outcome is still the same . Please tell me I am normal....

Yes - that's normal! I've had the same with my Mam when Charlotte has done things there and I've missed it.

But on the other hand, I was a SAHM when Josh was born and felt jealous as my ex went out to work and came in telling me all the usual work banter type tales, and I had nothing to say back as I'd not seen anyone all day. I wasn't allowed to have friends - long story!
