April TTC girls! Where there's a new baby! Tons of BFP's! And lots more to come!

That is a nice surprise for him Tori. I was going to do pregnancy yoga and I never went.

DH has just said to me 'So what contraception are we going to use?' I ignored him and he is laughing and annoying me - good contraception in itself! The best kind of contraception is lying on his back on DH's chest making little gurgly sounds and waving his arms and legs about and not looking the least bit tired. He will be ready for his feed soon.

It is freezing up here tonight. Everything is iced up. We have got the heating on still so the bedroom is warm for DS. He seems warm enough. But I like the room very cool and DH radiates heat like nothing on earth. It is too hot for me.

Your DH sounds like he will be very hands on Sairie. Mine is too. He really wanted a baby - has done for the last 3 years but I wanted to wait. He was so ready to be a dad. I know he'll be a lovely dad- he is just besotted with DS and he has loads of plans for the pair of them.

I actually like being at home. I thought I would be driven mad by not working but I don't know how I managed to work I wouldn't miss a minute of this time with DS.

Naww glad the visit went well! It sounds like you've got into a lovely routine.

I know it sounds silly but my DH gets up every morning and brings me water so I can take my pills then go back to sleep without moving. He then feeds the cats their morning wet food. I woke up yesterday and he had put out two bowls of dry food ready for me to place for the cats for their brunch. It made me smile because they are our fur babies, I can't wait for this girl to arrive as he's going to be so involved and she will have a dad that really cares 100%.

When I hear about both you lulu and Ducky it reminds me of what I have to look forward to

Health Visitor very happy with DS. Has put 10oz on. Asked me about contraception I said we will not be having sex until DS leaves home and she said 'They all say that. Believe me.'

SIL coming up for the day tomorrow. She has not met DS yet and is very excited. He has been choosing his outfit so he looks cute. Has been very good today apart from when HV undressed him and he screamed blue murder. I think he was cold. The pet lip was enormous. He has scoffed his feeds.

We are all going to bed in a bit. Haing an early night. We take the Tommee Tippee upstairs at night and DH takes it dowstairs in the morning. No coming downstairs in the middle of the night.

DH's sixth form sent a hoodie and a hat for DS. Very sweet.

Just put my order in with Stokke, travel system, car seat, carrier all ordered now to wait to see how long it takes to process. I realised that these things can take ages to arrive and if she comes early that's only like 11 weeks from now.

Not fussed about the whole bad luck thing with storing it, we don't have any relatives near by. If something bad is going to happen it will no matter where I store it.

That's really crap about your DH and work cupcake, seems really unprofessional to not turn up!

Dry his bum with a wash cloth after the wet wipes or let it air dry. Which reminds me I was going to order a bunch of face style wash cloths for that exact purpose!

I've also ordered the Burts Bee's baby products, apparently using a barrier cream helps a lot for sore bottoms before and after the rash appears.

Il try that tori I think it doesn't help because I use wet wipes and it leaves it a bit wet in his nappy so I got some cotton wool to help dry him a bit.

They didn't give me any cream I have a few different baby nappy cream things but they didn't seem to help

My husband has that attitude cupcake it's so annoying!! But if it was the other way round it would be a different story!

Well I went to the drs and they said I couldn't try the new formula as he's no longer non stop screaming after every feed it's only evey couple of feeds. They said it's probably his body getting used to the smaller feeds and his poo is because his body is clearing out all the 'back log' he had.

He has been laughing today tho so I hope he's on the mend! Have to take him back at the end of the week if his still pooing non stop. It's just difficult because I change him (which he hates) then within 5-10 mins he needs doing again! His bum is ever so sore

Well ds has definitely improved with reduced feeds but yesterday we had 4 hours of non stop crying, he's also had about 18 poos since yesterday, some of them like water. The midwife came out to see him and I have an appt at the drs today. Think I'm going to get him his special formula, if it will settle him I NEED it!

Didn't want him to have to go on it tho

I don't really trust the gp's now because thy missed it 3 times when I took him before and looked like they didn't have a clue when I was asking questions

Cupcake! Flowers and chocolates!!! How have you been?

I hope you and lulu managed to get some sleep!

I know what you mean. I did the feed about half 2 and DH has just finished this one but DS doesn't want to doze off again! So he is lying next to me and I so could do with another couple of hours sleep.

DH is up and getting ready for work and I am just hoping DS starts to snooze. We are lying in the dark and I have my fingers crossed. Am hoping the dark, his full tummy and the warm room will send him off.

Thanks Cupcake. I know what to expect from HV now.

Did you forgive DH? I don't think I could have.

On midwives, I rarely saw the same one twice until I got to the hospital in labour and the nicest one I had seen was on duty.

She was great and really kept me focussed and calm- even when DH was complaining I was hurting his hand by gripping it so tightly!

Cupcake - how has DH been? Has he apologised?

Health Visitor is coming tomorrow- what will she do? DS has been very settled today. I walked him down into the village and round the shops and he slept all the way. He has been wide awake tonight for his daddy to see him. Currently sitting next to him on the sofa. Has been in the bath and is ready for bed, looking very cute. DH looks knackered.

I feel really tired but on a good note am back to prepregnancy weight- but not shape! Tummy still a jelly belly.

Not long to go now Bears. You must be excited.

Tori - it must be awful feeling sick like that. I got light headed with heat a few times in the summer.

It's def hit and miss. I'd have hated the midwives where I lived before I moved here - they were not supportive or young mums in the slightest
