That's good ds puts his toys back lulu! :D
And yes ur probably right it's most likely hormonal.

Ducky don't worry im sure they haven't forgot about u!
I've never heard of damaged cervix either ! I'm not in pain at all.

Ds2 had his appt with the doctor for his eye. Because his tear duct is blocked and it's always gunky and infected. He's been referred to the children's hospital and might have to have a probe put down his tear duct to clear it out. He's had swabs and eye drops until we get the apt. But he would be put to sleep to have the probe done :( :( :( that terrifies me so much!

Good luck today cupcake for you and ds! I've never heard of a damaged cervix Shock have you had any pain?

Haha hope you managed to clear up after ds lulu! Has he become any more interested in the cats? My ds is obsessed with cats Shock

I'm a bit worried now. I know I have all my referrals in place and my dating scan etc, but I will be 10 weeks on Monday and I haven't had my booking in appt done or anything Hmm feel like I've been a bit forgotten about!

LuluJakey1 · 27/04/2016 21:05

He is fine Cupcake. He has spent the last two days empying things- emptied the dvds from the TV cabinet twice (about 60 of them) emptied a file of DH's marking all over and all out of order, emptied the cat food from the kitchen cupboard, managed to get hold of a loo roll and unroll it down the stairs. He is fascinated by it all. He emptied his little toy box and put it all back in this afternoon. Smile

I bet the bleeding is hormonal. I had an awful period when mine started again. It lasted about 3 weeks and was really heavy - scarily heavy. Then I had one that was almost nothing. All hormonal apparently.

Cupcake92 · 27/04/2016 14:25

Aw poor ds lulu!
Hope his head is better now :)

Oh gosh ducky! The school I want ds to go to is nothing like that most of the moms seem to wear exercise gear or big wind coats etc Grin
Ds goes to school next year!!! ShockShock
And poor ur ds too! Children are very clumsy Grin ds1's head is rather big so he always bumps it Grin

I went to the doctors yesterday because I've been constantly bleeding, I've got to have a blood test on Thursday and have some swabs taken and also have my cervix checked to see if there's damaged Confused no idea how there could be damaged tho?
Ds2 also finally has his doctors appt tomorrow about his eye! Can not wait! He deserves to finally be rid of a horrible gunky and red eye!

DH is watching 'One Born Every Minute' and getting all soft about babies and TTC. I am off to bed to get some sleep. The last thing I feel like at the minute is another baby. DS has been a terror today and I am exhausted.

duckyisback · 26/04/2016 07:44

All the groups round here are like that lulu, it's awful. Really like being back at school.

Speaking of which, I drove past the school I would like ds to go to (I know it's a long long way off yet) and was shocked by the moms there! They were all really dressed up! Big heels, massive hair, loads of make up. Just to pick up their kids Hmm think I might stand out a bit there.

Hope your ds is feeling better now lulu, my ds had a nasty bump the other day Sad he seems to get them very regularly, he's not perfected running yet.

LuluJakey1 · 25/04/2016 20:15

I am so tired tonight. I am going to bed in a minute. I feel like I could just sink into a deep sleep - down to the bone tiredness.

LuluJakey1 · 25/04/2016 19:11

I hate things like that Ducky. I would speak to the organiser and let her deal with it.
I hate cliquey groups of mums as well. That is why I like DS's nursery because there are never groups there with everyone just dropping off and collecting. I think some of them go out for a pizza together at the local Italien but I am not bothered about being part of that.

DS has a bump and a bruise on his forehead. He fell and hit his head on the coffee table. He sobbed Sad It took ages to calm him down. He keeps pointing to it and going 'ooooh'. DH has kissed it better a dozen times since he came in.

duckyisback · 25/04/2016 13:59

Ha will speak to her next week then and see how it goes. I dread him turning up! But his mom just doesn't care she just watched on chatting she is a big scary monster tbf

Cupcake92 · 25/04/2016 11:56

If it was me ducky (and this is me being me I'm not very nice sometimes! Grin ) id go up to his mother and tell her to sort her child out as he's being a little shit to other children. Then I'd say if u don't discipline him then I will.
But to be on the safe side talk to the organiser and say how he's hitting other children and if she could possible say something to his mother. And tell the organiser to write it in an accident book when he hurts someone or u will get ofsted involved

OP posts:
duckyisback · 25/04/2016 10:54

He's all better now Smile

I have no idea how to handle this so figured you lot could help Grin ds goes to a play group, there's one kid there who is vile. The first time we went, he came up, pushed ds off a toy and took it. He then kicked ds in the face. Then he went up to a little girl and started slapping her round the face. No one says anything to him.
Every week he does something horrible to at least a few kids and no one says anything. This week he pushed ds over, he hit a little girl and then he hit a little boy over the head.
I figured out who his mom is but she's part of the big group of women who always go together and are friends with the organisers. There's only a couple of people who aren't in their 'group' who go.

What do I do? Do I say something to the kid if I see him doing anything? Do I speak to his mom? Who is very big and angry looking and sees him doing this but does nothing. Or do I speak to the organiser who is friends with the mom and will most likely take her side and then I'll most likely feel the wrath of their group.

It feels like being back in high school! I really wouldn't bother going but ds loves it there.

Cupcake92 · 25/04/2016 07:15

Ds1 is fine ow thanks ducky :)

How ds doing with his tonsillitis?

Can't believe it's Monday again already!! I really need to speak to work about me coming back. Sad

Hope ds1 is feeling better now cupcake Smile

Cupcake92 · 23/04/2016 18:44

I know! It's been years since I stayed in a hotel! Grin but it's gonna be so strange not having the kids! I miss them already haha Grin

Aw no ducky :( I hope ds sleeps tonight !
Ds1 was fine today with his leg. He's had a very good day at nursery then went to his dad's with ds2!!
They went to the park! Shock
He's come back had dinner and a bath. Ds2 is asleep just waiting for ds1 to fall asleep Grin

OP posts:
duckyisback · 21/04/2016 02:12

And poor ds leg! I would have had a melt down! Hope he's feeling better tomorrow.

duckyisback · 21/04/2016 02:11

Omg staying at a hotel the night sounds lovely!!

I'm exhausted. Ds was improving with his sleep, although still not sleeping through. But the past few nights he has actually woke up at 1/2am and screamed and kicked and threw himself about to get to. It was 1am today and I'm still trying to get him back to sleep.

Cupcake92 · 20/04/2016 22:00

Well ds1 woke up screaming! He was saying his knee was hurting. He couldn't even stand on it when I took him downstairs for some medicine. He's gone back to sleep now. I think it was growing pains because he's done this before Confused it's just so weird and he panics so much.

Hahaaa ducky ! Grin yep that's my ds also! Grin he asks to sleep over he says to dm 'sleep. Me?'
Grin he's staying there with ds2 when I go to my friends wedding because I'm staying in a room of the hotel they are getting married at with another one of my friends and my dm offered to have the boys!!! Shock Shock will be so weird without them. But in a way I'm excited to have a child free evening and have fun with my friends! The one I'm sharing a room with I've not seen since ds1 was born! So I can't wait to catch up :)

duckyisback · 20/04/2016 20:19

Both in bed! Sounds good! Or maybe he doesn't understand but he knows something has happened iyswim.

That's what he does he arches his back! And he has a thing about dm's he just wants to stay there. He had a meltdown when we left earlier and kept running away and shaking his head when I told him he has to come home Blush

Cupcake92 · 20/04/2016 19:30

Oh I've been through the that one ducky Grin ds used to arch his back so I literally couldn't sit him in his car seat!

Hmm I'm not sure ducky, maybe he did? We had a sofa afternoon and I popped on his favourite programme on repeat lol Grin made him a curry as its his favourite and gave him a peppa pig biscuit I brought this morning. He's already in bed asleep now :) bless him. Ds2 is also in bed asleep!
Both kids fast asleep by 7:30pm! What's going on! Shock

OP posts:
duckyisback · 20/04/2016 14:09

I hope he learns soon! Every time he goes in his car seat he has a meltdown!!

Do you think maybe ds did understand about exh grandad and maybe he's a bit upset?

Cupcake92 · 20/04/2016 12:57

Aw how cute ducky!! Omg yes ds1's terrible twos started very early!! It does pass tho ducky so don't worry! :) they learn to limit their tantrums.

Oo blue notes? That's different!

AngryAngry to ur mil!! I would have responded with 'what money?'
U don't get much more at all!

I picked ds up from nursery and they told me he's wet himself twice and had a huge tantrum when going outside to play when they said he can go without his coat as it's pretty hot. He demanded it on apparently and kicked and screamed till it was on. Then in the car on the way home he soiled himself!! ConfusedConfused he's never done that! And he's fully potty trained so why's he doing this now? Confused

OP posts:
duckyisback · 20/04/2016 09:43

Yes I'm sure ds wouldn't understand, did he see him much? He has a junior bed/cot bed one with dinosaurs all over it Grin I think I remember you saying that your ds had the terrible twos early, oh my god ds tantrums are mad! I can't believe the tantrums he can throw!

Thank you sunny Smile still doesn't feel real!

I have my 'green notes' which aren't green anymore! They're blue and I don't like them Hmm I prefer the green ones.

I forgot to tell you, we went to mil the other week, h told her I was pregnant, her response was 'oh...... Did you do it for the money?' AngryAngryAngry h is not speaking to her since. She's such a bitch.

sunny825 · 19/04/2016 22:40

Congrats ducky! Great to see all is well. Fingers crossed you have a smooth pregnancy x

Cupcake92 · 19/04/2016 21:53

Yeah he had cancer. He hadn't been diagnosed for long tho. Was quite quick. But in the end it was a heart attack that got him.
Ds1 really doesn't understand tho, ExH told him but he just carried on playing. He's far too young anyway to know what it means.

Aw bless him ducky! :) kids quilts are so cute as well! Has he got a toddler sized one?
