Hello all
taken me ages to catch up!
Springy he froze it apparently - then chopped and re-wrapped - he is very precise so looked completely new!
OK just read your rant - having not been in the counselling session it is difficult to know what was actually said, having said that and knowing what the original issues were for then I am not sure why on earth half of those things were mentioned - Firstly why on earth would you ever move in with students and what on earth is she going on about with the divorce - from what you have posted since george came along DH totally adores him and george DH! Also, I thought counsellors were meant to listen and help people come to their own conclusion not offer up opinions and conclusions of their own - especially in one session! Why would you need extra support when you have us - stupid woman! I would try and not think about it for a while and talk to DH about it in a week or so and see what he thinks - it sounds like a waste of time but he has to decide himself if he wants to go back.
Soon to be there are 2 positions for close carrier, up right and led at an angle (instructions on the cd) if you use the second one bfing is pretty easy - the only issues I have with it is constantly adjusting the ring fittings for Karahans changing weight and positions.
Trista, my bleeding stopped after a week or so but had discharge for another 2 weeks then completely went.
Re tomorrow - every time you have a wobble look at your two little boys and think about the fact that you made the decision for them and no-one else. And I know it will be hard but wouldn't it be great if you were really strong and happy and had him wondering what the feck he has done!
Springy - my HV knew NOTHING about contraception at all - was so shocked - told me to talk to the dr at my 8 week check! And she bought it up! I hate condoms too!
Springy and Soon2be - I second nutty - def get a smear done - things down there scare me to death so make sure you have regular checks!
Nutty I think you will have another one (not yet but in a while) and you may have a really easy pregnancy next time!
Bleu, kara suffers from constipation and screams until he fills his pants!
Re bfing - have said this before I know but really stop if it is hurting too much - IT IS NOT FAILING - in fact admitting it is not helping you both is being a better parent than struggling and distressing yourself and Megan! I try not to be too opinionated on this thread but seriously (please don't flame me anyone) it is wrong that people are made to feel like they have failed if they FF, BFing is not the bee-all and end all - yes it's nice, economical and the first few weeks do provide SOME benefits (although this is not to say they are essential as other ff babies are perfectly fine) but really don't let it over-take you - it is not for everyone and I know lots of lovely healthy babies that were 100% ff and are fine lovely people - Also I strongly believe it has nothing to do with the mother and is to do with the baby - they either take to it or they don't - don't let people pressure you and don't let your own emotions make you feel like you have failed - you are doing brilliantly and I would have stopped after a week if I was feeling the pain you have been!
Lauren - oooooooh lovely pics
Brett in normal and fine - I get of lots of things on and off the thread - it's part of normal life and feelings which as long as you love what you have too is perfectly normal.
Right better go - just sneaked away from the workers (ceiling is going up as we speak) to catch up! I realised I have turned in to my mother and am obsessed with cleaning - they popped to the shop to buy the plaster and I was on my hands and knees hoovering up the crap from the old ceiling, tidying the kitchen and lounge and felt relieved when it was done - was very stressed out when I saw the mess!
I laugh at my mum for continuously hoovering and stressing over crumbs on the floor and it's me!
