.....having a tough day?

Yes. Dd2 just wants to be held all the time. She's five months. Just wanted to cook dinner. I use a sling but sometimes i need 5 mins not holding or carrying her. Im starting to feel depressed again but havent admitted it yet to anyone in real life. Dd1 however is having a good day with potty training so not all bad. Got to find good somewhere but its not always easy. Hope you are ok op?

A day of "extreme teething" here. Calpol not even taking edge of pain :( Lo 8months old, been teething since 11 weeks. Surely we should see a tooth soon?!! Re your health; the
good thing is you've noticed. If you're not ready to tell family/friends in real
life, maybe make an appointment
with gp and mention it. Could be
good to have someone on your
recovery with you. Take care of yourself missus.

Poor little lamb :-( think that might be dd2s issue too. Guess you have probably tried everything but I found anbesol worked well for dd1. Its got anaesthetic and antiseptic in it. Works well for mouth ulcers too. Boots stock it.
Iv had depression on and off since I was a teenager so I know what to do but sometimes I wish I could hide in my bed. Dds are hard work but I love them so much they are my little stars.

Thank you btw. I feel better for telling someone :-)

Thanks for the recommendation, will try that one, would try ANYTHING when it comes to teething! I know, it is an absolute privilidge and blessing to have had a wee baby, but looking after the baby is definately the hardest job in the world!!! (and I've had my fair share of working in stressful jobs with responsibility!)
