Your not alone KK...My dh is a lazy so n so too.

I do everything for the kids, and there's 4 of them!! I sometimes wonder why I am so knackered all the time, but if I sit down and think about it, it's not really surprising.

Hopefully you can get him to do a few things, or maybe go out more, say you are just nipping the shop and stay out for a few hours...

I feel terrible moaning about my OH now! I only have the one child to see too! Sorry to hear you have to do everything *hugs* Mel

KK my OH is quite good usually but I did have a big whinge at him the other night because I felt like I'd had no sleep in between Squeak waking and my vivid dreams, which really wasn't his fault at all maybe you just need to arrange to go out on your own/with your friends and just tell your OH, not ask lol.

Well done on your swimming! I cant even swim... ! I do actually find with him its much better to tell him rather than ask, if I buy something and justify why i bought it (I always feel I need to) he moans saying I shoudln't have bought it, when I tell him I bought it because I just did he doesn't seem to care :rotfl:

Mazcabs: I dont think having a spreadsheet is sad at all! Very organised! I know I probably would loose a spreadsheet so I just set myself a goal to never pay full price for nappies/ wipes, so far I never have

Kitkat, can we come over and kick your OH bum? It's one thing for you to be doing a bit of 'houseworky' stuff, but to do absolutely everything is just unfair and wrong. Plus, he won't be bonding with T as much either.

Er... yes you can! LOL. I worry about bonding, he keeps saying 'T is defo a mummys boy' no blimmin wonder!

When does your OH think you get your 'me time'??? I think you should right down what you do all day so that he can see how busy/hectic/time consuming it is.

I get 1 hour per week to go food shopping LOL! (and sometimes I take T with me...) thanks for your schedule with your OH, I will try leave it on the screen when he comes home!

SS: Glad the ultrasound went ok

Ladybird: Facebook isnt working for me at all!

Smartie: 2 meals per day? I feel behind we're still only on 1! he doesn't seem to want breakfast but will happily eat either lunch or dinner?! Is Daisy still waking? T woke 4.30am

kitkat5566

Sorry thats so huge!!

WHERE IS FACEBOOK?! Have random people been chucked off!

smartie12

She woke at 2am ish for a feed then she woke up at 6ish but was happy so didn't get her up for breakfast until 6.50!! Huge improvement:j

Don't feel behind... she loves her breakfast and has a little lunch:)

FB works on Google Chrome;) EDIT - I lied. It's died again

smartie12

Oooo must add.... she's been having a 2/3 hour afternoon nap the last few days which seems to be helping with the night?? *touches lots of wood* Thats as well as 2 little morning naps. We seem to be getting into a routine which is good:)

kitkat5566

Does she eat anything savoury at all? T will chew/suck a raw carrot but doesn't like it cooked & pureed LOL. I've also tried other savoury bits and he wasnt so keen. Loves apple and banana though! Oh and porridge!

I will try google chrome!

smartie12

She loves fruity porridge, apple and banana but is also not so keen on carrot!!

delain

I was told with DD1 to introduce savoury foods first because babies have a sweet tooth. Think it was the HV that said that

KK - Moan away;) I have resigned myself to a life of slavery...at the end of the day I know what he is like and I still 'chose' to have two more squiddlies:)


I am just calming down, K was throwing tantrums, T was screeching like a banshee and I just nearly burnt the house down, there is smoke everywhere and a HUGE mess on my cooker. I have got the back door and all the windows open to try and air the place out and just phoned dh to stop at the chippy on the way back from L's swimming lesson.....as dinner is a 'little bit ruined':rotfl:

Hmm, not great for the diet, but I have tried to choose wisely xx

I'm glad it isn't just me with a wonky facebook - googe search has revealed a few news stories saying it isn't working for lots of people and fb haven't answered any questionds about why. I still can't get on. We've had a lovely day today mostly. We went to messy play, where I firmly slotted myself into one or two mums minds as a trouble maker by bringing chocolate biscuits, but never mind. I also got cuddles with the mini twins (having twins there is handy - there is always one available to borrow ) and we got covered in gloop.

Then we went to my parents for lunch, and have just dropped DH off at work on the way home So now it will be soon time to get small girl into bed (with any luck!) then I have some clothes of hers to sort out, and I may wii fit afterwards if I have time. Need to do the sorting first though, or it won't happen. Beccles I keep contemplating just dance - I take it you would recommend it then. Daft question, but how does it work? Maybe I need to look on youtube - i'm sure it will enlighten me!

A little bit ruined Mel. I like your style :rotfl:
