    Free loan of a Gitdog, if anyone is in need of some exercise.

    I feel urgh today - no energy at all, so he's not had a proper walk and is bored. A bored Gitdog is not a good thing.

    You'll get a good workout on your arms as well as your legs, if that helps?

    MU, any surplus energy, please send it this way. I was asleep in the chair at 8.30 last night, which is unheard of.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    As Gitdog now has an 'ology, I'm not surprised he's bored.

    Perhaps he could do an online course? :D

    He might enjoy Archeology!

    You still sulking, WaS?
    :heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because these weirdos are your true family.

    thanks guys.. I think you are right, the incontinence is a major factor in the dicline in my mental health, I guess I just have to be brave when the pelvic physio starts and hold the bigger picture in my mind take care guys
    Many thanks to all who contribute on MSE :)

    Faerie, sorry you are still feeling so rubbish. It does sound like there is a practical plan in place though now for your continence problems. Gives you something to get stuck in to and work towards. You might find that now there is a plan to help you, even if it will be hard, you may be able to start moving forward with things. It's tempting to live in the past and dwell on 'what ifs', but now you do have an option to move forward, so if you can, grab it with both hands. You have nothing to lose!

    You may also find your mental health issues improve if you can start to see some progress in your health.
    Welly speaks a lot of sense, Faerie. Physio will be hard and will take time, but when you start to see results, it will be such a boost! :A



    Roough night last night. Hubby ended up doing a lot of the night feeds as I seem to be incapable of giving her a bottle without her getting terrible wind. Makes me feel so inadequate. I am fine breast feeding, but she is so hungry at times that I can't keep up. Still feeling like this being a mum thing is totally alien to me.
    Surely it should come more naturally, or how did the human race survive?!
    Katy, the human race survived because early humans were living in groups where nothing was private. Other mothers, siblings, grandmothers were all in very close proximity in the cave or communal hut. They were right next to you, and you grew up watching babies being born, being suckled etc. and other children and other women took part in the child care. Women had many children, so had loads of experience.

    It's actually quite abnormal, really, to be isolated like we are in our child-rearing!
    The first time I saw anyone breast-feeding a baby, I was about 14!
    The first time I held a baby, I was even older, and I gave it back the minute it started to cry! :rotfl:
    The first time I ever changed a nappy was when I had just had my own first child.

    So, you're a normal person in an 'abnormal' situation! The whole time with your first child will be a steep learning curve....at every stage!

    It is a lot easier with the next one! :D
