sounds sensible nutty!

Pesha · 26/03/2007 22:39

Sorry x posted with everyone.

Ellie - Have you really? Ok will email you in a min. If you dont really want him there and now he's being a pain about it then dont, I know its his baby and its made to be this big deal about seeing the baby born but really they're not very cute or exciting when they 1st pop out. Its really all about you and what you're going through and making it a positive experience for you, sod anyone else! If he wants to see his newborn baby have him wait outside the room so he can hear you scream!! Sorry i mean sing with joy at your wonderful birth experience My sisters dh is awful with hospitals and pain and things so we were both there to support her but when it all started happening he went off and sat downstairs till baby was out. He bonded wonderfully and im pretty sure he didnt feel like he missed out on anything and my sis got the support and help she needed, well as best I could! Sorry ive gone on one again If you want him there then insist he grows up and is there but really labour is all about you and what you want, its the bit afterwards thats about the baby.

Pesha · 26/03/2007 22:46

Am currently very hacked off with my xp (dds dad) at the moment so that could be colouring my judgement slightly! Since he saw her with me for the day 3 weeks ago he rang saying he wanted her to stay at his all the following weekend cos his parents were down but i said no too much too soon (he's not seen her for 3 years!) then he rang the week after when I was out but didnt try my mobile or leave a message and ive heard nothing from him since. DD is now saying she misses him and when can she see him again as all her memories from before seem to be coming back now. And today she said he used to give her chewing gum ok I know its not crime of the century but she was 3 yrs old ffs, i still dont let her have it now cos I dont like it and im pretty sure he knew she wasn't allowed it but gave it to her anyway. makes me wonder what else I dont know about. And he's just generally a complete prick and i wish he hadnt come back, especially now.

EllieK · 26/03/2007 22:47

i know all that Pesha but with matthew i gave his dad the chance to be there even tho he'd been a complete twat while i was pg, and now he'll happily tell me, with tears in his eyes, how he's so glad i pushed him to be there because it was the best experience of his life.

makes me feel that i kinda have to let J be there or i'm denying him that.

EllieK · 26/03/2007 22:48

oh Pesha

your poor dd, i am very lucky in that matthews dad has been there for him from the start, and wouldn't dream of not seeing him or messing him around.

Pesha · 26/03/2007 22:54

As long as its not diminishing the experience for you though, think thats what im trying to say!

Think im probably letting my own bad mood with crappy x interfere though! Didnt mean for it to come across quite how it did, sorry

EllieK · 26/03/2007 22:58

it came across exactly how i feel

Pesha · 26/03/2007 23:02

I know, dp hates him. We've had some huge problems over the years but he would never for a second have considered not seeing ds. And dd for that matter, when we were split up he still used to see both of them not just ds.
I know this is prob really sad but in eminems song cleaning out my closet he says about how he couldnt picture leaving his daughter, even if he hated his ex he'd grit his teeth and try to make it work for her sake and that always brings tears to my eyes, I mean he's completely f**ked up and if he can manage it then why the hell couldnt dan!And of course now he's come waltzing back saying he wants to be a daddy and i just have to let him and hope to god he doesnt get bored of it again

Sorry am being completely selfish and turned your rant into my own

EllieK · 26/03/2007 23:07

feel free Pesha, makes me feel better

Pesha · 26/03/2007 23:07

My email is playing up and keeps saying error on page when i try to log in so will try again tomorrow.

And OMG its gone 11 o'clock, how does it get so late so quickly all the time?!?! Have to go to bed now

EllieK · 26/03/2007 23:08

that sounds really harsh but i guess i mean in a 'not just me going thro it' kinda way

EllieK · 26/03/2007 23:09

i'll email you my number x

Pesha · 26/03/2007 23:17

I know what you mean, when you're suffering its nice to know other people are suffering too

EllieK · 26/03/2007 23:25

sorry pesha was i that obvious?

Pesha · 26/03/2007 23:28

Nope its just what I was thinking when I first read your rant!

EllieK · 26/03/2007 23:30

good! it does make it all more bearable tho, knowing that there are others going thro it and coming out the other side!

Pesha · 26/03/2007 23:42

Definitely, thats whats so great about MN! Alot of what you've said about your situation i can really identify with only im one child ahead now! Only with xp i put up with his twattyness for alot longer than i should have. Should have been brave enough to have left him when i was still pg with dd and stopped him from making it such a nightmare but I STUCK IT OUT (oops sorry) til she was about 8/9 months old before finally getting the confidence to leave. So have lots of respect for you being strong enough to make that break when you needed to and all that you're coping with. But I know you dont like to talk about it so Ill shut up now

EllieK · 26/03/2007 23:46

thank you

Pesha · 26/03/2007 23:51

Really am going to bed now!!

And i promise im not stalking you but I also have to have the volume on even numbers or 5. And with my telly that can take ages as it flicks through 2 numbers at a time mostly so if you're on odds is very hard to get back to evens! Would have posted on other thread but im supposed to be going to bed and starting on a new thread seems more like staying up late than just a quick message on a thread im already on!

Anyway... Night night

EllieK · 26/03/2007 23:54

they've buggered about with my tv so it doesn't show the volume level now, very frustrating

EllieK · 27/03/2007 00:08

ok, new thread time, and i have a fab idea for a title ...........................

EllieK · 27/03/2007 00:11
