  • Evening lovelies,

    Tintedweb has been down for a few days, no chance of catching up with you lot lol!

    Cafc, I have not been 'nice' since dec 09 either, was paranoid for the first twenty weeks of pg then spd from 21 weeks and having a knee opening of 17 cm put paid to any ideas after that, am having implant put in in a few weeks and think he might be expecting some 'niceness' after that. Though am a bit unsure of how we go about it after all this time. Also paranoid about apron belly and wizard sleeve hooha! Sorry if tmi!!!

    Took baby b for swimming this morning and we did submersion, I was terrified but she thought it was actually hilarious, was soooooo cute!

    bm .. totally understand why you're p!ssed .. before my step dad became a kn0b .. he was a good man and dad to me at one time .. i found a letter my mother had wrote to my sperm donator telling him how she missed him and wished things had been different .. i wrote B!TCH across it and left it out for my step dad to find ..

    she couldnt understand why i was angry .. ((hugs)) for you and your step dad xxx
    Glad someone does. My mum thinks its a total non issue, and not being funny but "family friend" has a whole host of issues, I think she loves wallowing in her own misery type thing. I stopped inviting her down because she left me feeling depressed.
  • Evening all. Not been on since last weekend, too much going on (but I'm not sure exactly what!). I have poked my head in a few times, then not got around to posting anything. From the page which was the last one but probably won't be by the time i hit post:

    Beccles - yay for improved maths (and cake!)

    Kindof - I hope you sorted stuff out a bit. I thought we had things sorted out (at least sort of) in the housework department, but no, it turns out that DH thinks that the days I'm not at work aren't for looking after Izzy, taking her to playgroups, and stuff. No, they are to be housekeeper. I was fuming and am still cross now. I've been making an effort not to let him get to me but he still does in the back of my head I just don't want to show it to Izzy (or give him the satisfaction!) But yep, so we've met old friend we've not seen for ages in the pub and Izzy has had fun running around like a loon in the beer garden. I'm sure we were probably getting disaproving looks for having a baby in the pub garden at (shock horror) 6pm on a Friday night, but never mind.

    Searching - that is a pain about the interview. I'd come help if I was closer!

    Buttons - go to the party!

  • Bah - we have had the worst night of putting Benjamin down for months and months. He was a pain when he woke this morning, wouldn't go back down and was alternating between sobbing and shouting in anger. Tonight we did the usual routine but as soon as I left the room he was sobbing. A few trips in and some twinkle twinkle got him down eventually but it was tough on the old heartstrings :(


    Stick with it, stick with it, stick with it...

    We have ordered curry :D

  • Kitkat/becky. There is no rush, just wait till you are ready. I found half a bottle of wine helped too :rotfl:

    i do think its really got to be on your terms. This morning it was all my doing.... so he didnt feel like he was asking, and i was sure i was ready....

    I think the c section has helped with the wizard sleeve issue, but then the no niceness since dec 09 has helped in that dept as well :rotfl:

  • I'm jelous of all your takeaways. DH was going to get chips on the way home from the pub but is there for the duration, so I'm going to make a salad instead. Not quite the same.
