due in june - oh twunt, that is soon!!

[derlor]

new thread girls

oops sorry

M&S are our new best friends too...DH is packaging development manager for a food company who make all M&S salady things like olives and artichoke hearts and stuff...he spent the day at their head office doing production meetings and samp;ling things and came back wiht lots of Gastro-pub freebies for our tea.....so I've just had salmon fishcakes in a lemon butter sauce with chunky chips. no pudding though as it wasn't gluten free.
I've manged to wee myself a few times this week but was keeping that to myself, but now the floodgates have openend (HA HA) I thought I would share. It's been a case of "oh, I need to loo...oops too late" so I'm frantically doing pelvic floor exercise and surfing the web for a rampant rabbit!!
Lilkel...didn't mean to ignore you earlier...glad you're back, but where are you off to now...bit of an international woman of mystery aren't you....and here's me getting excited about a trip to Edingburgh then Lincolnshire.
Catkins...can I come and work with you....I bet it's hard work, but rewarding, not like loining the pockets of some greedy twunt like my boss!!

go for it, then blame stress incontinence - he'll never know it was intended!

"loining the pockets" Daisy, is your boss Tarzan??????

Old lady incontinence pads...that what we need. well it worked for DS tonight...he's started weeing the bed a lot and we've put him back in pull-ups. DH had him in his jammies before I came home, pull ups and all and he was sat watching telly...when he needed the loo, he just wee'd where he was, safe in the knowledge that it wouldn't make a mess....I'm gonna see if I can squeeze my sorry ass into them later (not the ones he weed in)
On a serious note, Foxy you experienced soul you...is this normal for a nearly five year old boy to regress like this. We think its cos there's been a lot of upheaval recently, but not sure putting him back in night nappies was a good idea, but after three bed changes a night for two weeks it seemed like a good idea at the time

OOps....water retention of the fingers means my typing ain't so great these days!!

hmmm, I don't know to be honest Daisybump. What does he say about it? Is he particularly tired so not waking up for a pee?

Daisy, it is very common for boys especially to go through this again - lots of clinics now up and running for exactly that. it is all linked in with hormones that are released at night - if problem persists you can get medication to inhibit release of the night time hormone. instead of pull ups i would reccommend you try pampers bed sheets. just put over or under normal bed sheet and it will save you from having to strip the whole bed but make him less likely to fall into the habbit of just peeing into a nappy which he can't feel.

Decided against peeing myself. DH engrossed in Playstation so I would've had to clean it up myself!
Daisy, of course you can come and work with me! It is a great job although one of the kids threw a major schleppy in M&S after his lunch and grabbed a handful of expensive wedding cards from a display then tried to eat them. I was cross . Actually, I was flipping livid! Naughty bugger.

oh catkin are you a playstation widow too - i sympathise my dh got his new ps3 last week and has hardly looked at me since - hence my constant chat on here!!! (every cloud )

TBH he's not normally that bothered by it (and it was my mum that had the great idea of getting him a PS for his birthday believe it or not!!) but he seems a bit 'lost' this evening as if he doesn't really know what to do with himself. God, I've made him sound like a 5 yr old!

DS does seem really tired so we think he's not able to wake himself up...tried the pamper bad mats, but they were horribly expensive to go through three a night, and shamed to say the pull-ups were the easier option for me....now I'm a SAHM for a bit, I'll try to get him sorted out...too bloody expensive anyway pull-ups...and with bubba looming.
Think he feels a bit ashamed of it, but we're trying not to make a big deal of it, and really praising him on the odd night when it doesn't happen.
Trying to stay off chocolate...since my sick episode in the shower the other day, I've kind of gone off proper food again, and last night for tea had a large bar of galaxy...then was awake half the night with really nasty nasty acid reflux everytime I tried to lie down. think I need some stronger antacid tablets!

iswym Daisy 3 a night is way too expensive. if this continues you could try something like this
and ask you HV about enurisis clinic - hopefully just a phase though.

meant to put this info on that last thread too

Thanks Derlor....the kids health website in particular...he has had the odd occaision where he's wee'd against the bedroom door thinking he was in the loo....should talk it over with the HV, but we haven't seen one since we moved here when he was three We did think anout an alarm, it might be worth a go, but our childminder thinks we should just leave him to grow out of it himself....
i'll show this stuff to DH...
anyway off to spend some time with DH...its the least I could do after him making tea and i've not seen him since Monday....although he's been in the garage smoking a ciger so will be smelly and horrible

Trouble with boys is they tend to pee everywhere, so its changing duvet, pillows, fitted sheets. I'm not a fan of lifting, but you could get him up when you go to bed. I agree with you, don't make a big deal of it but give him heaps of praise for being a 'big boy' on dry nights. I'd also mention that he's going to be a big brother and his baby bro/sis will be in nappies, so he can help you with the baby. because he's not a baby. etc etc etc. And sticker charts are great. Just don't do what I did with DS1, buy him a Thomas Train (£12 a pop) for every 10 stars. He cottoned onto it very quickly and took me for every train he could get!!!

but the males of the species NEVER grow out of weeing against the door/in a wardrobe/in the corner thinking its the loo, do they???

Right, back from my pizza and feeling a little better. I guess the dilation means I'm at risk of a premature birth if contractions continue, hopefully the stuff they gave me will stop those. I can still fly and I'll be getting another check when I get back. Don't know if it'll close up again, I was so shocked really I forgot to ask. she said I shouldn't spend too much time on my feet or do anything too strenuous. Basically I'm pissed off and worried at the possibility of a premature birth, I'm due end of june so only 6 months. That's way too early.

Lilkel, nice to see you back, we were worried about you.

Friend of mine's bf pissed over the stereo one night when he was pissed. she wasn't best pleased

men are soooooooooooooo revolting i'd never pee myself inapropriately - no no no NEVER!!!

Anyone remember the thread with the pg woman who peed herself on purpose in M&S?

Couldn't pee myself inappropriately - hard enough when someone's in the cubical next door. Saying that, I might manage it in Harvey Nicks somewhere around week 39...

why did she do that? was she pretending it was her waters breaking to get free stuff??

You're heading back here soon, aren't you sputnik? To stock up on HP sauce for your fried egg sarnies? Where are you going to be?

not even a wee inappropriate pee with an 'oof' foxy?
