{Goes around house collecting any towels, fleecy blankets, ikea fleece not yet cut into nappy liners, Mummies pj fleecy top (already got bit of sick on shoulder), erm - tea towels}
Gonna go back up and see how she is. Will also take clean vests (note to self). Thanks again all.
Also, MFD, just noticed your sig - 11 lb in 20 days? Well done!! What's your secret (not that I can ever be bothered).
Night all xxx
ETA WOuld you believe me if I told you my aunt and uncle own a buisness selling towels - will speak to them tomorrow - in fact - I just rememebred, they gave me a bundle of white ones when C was born - off to investigate the nursery - that reminded me Thanks xxxMy baby girl :kisses3: September 09 :heartsmil0 -
Aww hope she feels better soon Jam.
I made a dress for me, it's turned out lovely, but I really don't suit it. So might try chopping at it to make it more me. Did not do the dishes, they are still sitting there and had a long shower that included lots of lotions and potions. Looked at my app and I think this is just my worse PMT day. Though, I have never had PMT to the point of being so depressed. Feel better now right enough but I think I'm going nuts.

Morning.....
I'm up with the whingebag again!!! She just refuses to sleep and everytime I put her down she grunts and groans and works herself up to screaming, I swore this baby would be a nightmare and I was exactly right, it is honestly deja vu of ds1 & ds2.....so be warned, those with lovely compliant babies...don't have another because it will be a pain in the backside.
I am feeling very low atm and can't seem to drag myself out of it:(......I am convinced dh is/has been up to something and is trying to cover his tracks. He swears he hasn't but I am so paranoid lately and can't understand why he wouldn't be, I mean, how could he not, seeing as he has ended up married to such a fat/ugly/failure/waste of space like me. He says I will feel differently once my medication starts to work fully and I hope he is right...but is he just saying that to put me off the trail by making out that I'm crazy??
Beenie - I am not going to jump on the bandwagon of telling you not to get back with your oh, because I know only too well the hurtful things couples can say to each other....even when still in love. It sounds like he has been being stubborn about coming back and trying to convince himself he has been in the right, BUT on the other hand he has behaved despicably and you need to make a judgement call here, the last thing you want to do is mess your kids about by having him back, only for you to argue/fight all the time and him leave again.......if you want to put yourself through heartache that's fine.....but that would not be fair on them. At the end of the day, only you know the real situation.
Think she might have snoozled off so am going to see if I can get her back upstairs and into the cot without waking her too much.....I'm sooo tired, I pretty much passed out on the sofa last night, depite trying my hardest to stay awake to keep an eye on dh......omg, I do sound like a crazy person:(

How are David's spots now?
Fantastic news that the lump feels smaller :j
Davids spots have been geting better day by day and yesterday was the 1st day where he wasn't a complete grizzlebum :rotfl: PLUS last night he went down at 8, had a feed at midnight and then didn't wake til 5 WOOOOHOOOOO :rotfl:The very best night in a very long time :j.
Hello Becciboobah
Beenie - I hope you make your decision with a clear head and without a heavy heart, if that makes sense? Good luck hon, with whatever you decide
Jam - I really hope things got better for you last night *hugs*
Mel, you do not sound like a crazy person, you sound like a tired Mum with a newborn, a toddler and 2 other children to deal with too! I think (for once) our DH is right and that you will feel better once your medication starts to work fully. PLUS there is NO way you are a fat, ugly failure - you are a gorgeous looking Yummy Mummy who is already fitting in to her pre-pregnancy jeans.
I wish I lived closer to you so I could give you a hug
The one thing children wear out faster than shoes is parents:D

Morning all. Sounds like everyone is having a rough time of it the moment, so hugs all round.
We have grandad's funeral this afternoon and I can't find the sat nav, so I need to have a direction-printing exercise this morning. It has all still not really sunk in, but i'd better take some tissues just in case. I expect Izzy will be rampaging enough to distract me anyway!
She is in a right grump this morning. She doesn't know what she wants and won't let me cuddle her. I'm thinking teeth, and have got some calpol into her. I've managed to get her to eat something by getting myself some breakfast and letting her nick some (crafty!) and she is calmer now, so that was probably part of the problem too?Isabella Molly born 14th January 2009

Morning
Hope Charlotte feels better this morning Jam.
Mel - you're not a failure. You're a stressed out mother of three, one of whom is a demanding newborn. Stop thinking you're crap - I'm sure you are doing the best you can under the circumstances. You will feel better once the medication starts working. In the mean time, try and get a little "me time" if you can. Even if it's just sitting upstairs with a cuppa for 15 mins all by yourself, it'll help.
Hope today goes as well as can be expected Ladybird. Will be thinking of you xx
Busy morning here with loads of work to do. Have a good day all xxHere I go again on my own....0 -
OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
Stupid COW from the council just been to say they're closing the case down as "there is no noise" and if i think there is then it's "an acceptable" level.
I got angry and told her i'll be making a written complaint about her and the way she's handled it. And i will continue to complain.
I was shouting tbh but omfg i'm raging, i'm shaking!!!!!!!!! Tesco man was stood there and he sympathised with me lol.
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
She said outright "we won't be doing anything if u keep complaining as there's nothing there".........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And then she went to tell next door they're closing the case so they're going to be worse than fking ever now :eek::eek::eek:
Sounds like what we've been going through. They've all dropped our case now, although my husband is still emailing them literally every day with complaints still. It def is not normal or acceptable
I'm feeling quite sad this morning, my mother in law is back in hospital todaywe thought things were looking up, but now her white blood cells are so low the doctors are extremly worried and want her back in to do more bone marrow tests and more chemo etc. Looks like she's either not recovered like they first thought or the cancer has returned. She's very frail now, lost a lot of weight and i was shocked when i saw her last weekend. I am so worried, I don't know how my hubby will cope/deal with it if we loose her. I can see how scared he is
Sorry to start the day with a depressing post, feel a bit better for talking about it though. Thank you for reading.
