To have brought dd into my bed tonight

[quitcomplaining]

Dp is sleeping on sofa due to awful cough that feels like it shakes the foundations of the house

I have hyperemesis and feel like a donkeys arse. Will probably need to go back into hospital tommorrow for another wonderful shot in my bottom and time on a drip.

I have been the worst mother ever the last two weeks.

But tonight I don't care. I have taken 18 month of dd from her room and put in with me to listen to her little sleep sounds and smell her hair.

This is the bit where you are all thinking oh well one night won't hurt when you feel so bad...

Well it will because I have spent the last 2 weeks sleep training her as we used to cosleep, I fear i have probably ruined everything!

ChippingIn I did understand your opinion, I just don't agree with you that it's such a big deal. I didn't need you to explain your opinion to me again.

Why the 'bleurgh' at my use of the word 'mama'? Apparently you prefer 'mum', but why would you even pass comment? Surely you must be aware that not all families use the same terms. How intolerant, to go out of your way to be rude about such an insignificant difference.

quitcomplaining I'm glad to read that you got your cuddles in without any disruption to dd's new routine.

Sorry you're feeling no better. I've only seen hyperemesis second hand (my sister) but I know that it's no joke. I hope it lets up a bit soon.

I hadn't noticed that, OneHandWavingFree. DS calls me 'mumsy' if he feels like it and the world hasn't yet ended.

Actually he crawls into bed with me sometimes in the morning to laugh about my superior, warmer bed and he is 14. Call the thought police.

Maybe 'mumsy' is acceptable (though what would I know, I'm the idiot who allows dd to call me Mama).

It's only one letter off from 'mummy,' and that word is perfectly fine because ChippingIn uses it, and it doesn't even make her go 'bleurgh'.

I'm due mid september. So potentially weeks of being sick left! And that's assuming it stops at the magic 12 weeks.

Having to take each day as it comes though as it gets you down to think it could be ages before your normal again.

I have been given anti sickness medication and thought it would be a miracle cure.... It's not! It only stops the actual vomit. Not the feeling sick part. And sometimes I think you actually feel better once you have let it out.

Hey ho. I keep telling myself other people suffer with much worse and at least I get a lovely baby at the end of it!

Thats the spirit quit, you will have a beautiful baby at the end of it all.
Luck, lucky you

I also had little girl in bed with me last night, for no other reason than we fancied 'snuggling', she felt and smelt gorgeous with her wynciette pyjamas and freshly washed hair and she kept me warm.

Oh and ChippingIn she also calls me 'Mama', her choice (and since I am not her biological Mother, that is really special to me).
