No way you would regret it!!

Siarie · 06/02/2015 12:12

In other news, who's next to pop then?

LuluJakey1 · 06/02/2015 17:02

DH is playing football tonight- will come home filthy as it is wet and muddy outside Smile

We are having pizzas delivered later on and I am doing a salad- which DH won't eat but I will.

DS has been awake most of the day today. Dozed during his walk but apart from that has been very perky. I am hoping he sleeps well tonight. He makes all kinds of noises now.

Ducky23 · 06/02/2015 17:19

I want to hear stephs labor story! Grin

Cupcake92 · 06/02/2015 17:35

I went and saw my old boss today for a drink after work. He's just split froma 4 year relationship and his ex is basically the female version on my H. He was just telling me how he felt just like I do and how he just put up with it. But now he's ended it (she cheated on him so gave him that excuse) he said he feels he's able to do things now and feels free and like a weights off his shoulder. He's sort of opened my eyes a bit. and I wish im had just ended it ages ago when it was easy to walk away :( now I don't know what to do.

And yes! I wanna hear all about steph a labor story!! :)

I hope DS sleeps well for u tonight Lulu! :) he seems like a very content baby

It's v difficult cupcake, maybe your old boss would make an excellent support if you did split with h?

Cupcake92 · 06/02/2015 19:22

I guess he would. He did say if I needed help or just to talk he'd be there as he's just been through the same thing.
I dunno tho. As the saying goes .. Between a hard place and a stone wall.
Well I think that's the saying :s

Why would it be so difficult Cupcake?

Ducky23 · 06/02/2015 19:50

I know it's difficult.

It's hard to explain lulu Confused

LuluJakey1 · 06/02/2015 20:01

I really don't understand. You tell him it is over, consult a solicitor and see about benefits and having him put out. of the house.

If you are renting that should not be too hard, if you are buying it will be part of the divorce agreement - and with a baby, you would get to keep the house and get maintenance for mortgage or rent.

Neither of them contribute much financially now.

It is easy for me to say as an outsider, I know. I am not criticising either of you. You just both seem unhappy, badly treated, not supported in any way yet you both stay and I don't get it. Emotional abuse can do this to you - make you put up with more and feel worthless. You both deserve better.

lillamyy1 · 06/02/2015 20:51

Cupcake, it's good you've got someone to talk to who understands.
I agree with Lulu that you both deserve better. But also understand what a huge, scary thing it would be to break up.

Siarie, Bears and Tori, (anyone else still expecting?) we should have a list of our due dates. Mine's 10th April (although by all accounts my bump is surprisingly big! I was browsing around a kids' clothes shop earlier and the shop woman was like Shock when I said I was 31 weeks. She asked me if it was twins!! Shock Shock

Oh no Tori, hope it's not PGP. Mine started around 24 weeks, though. It started at the very bottom of my tummy, and I thought it felt like muscle ache, but then it moved down and now it hurts around each leg socket, kind of either side of my fanjo, and on my pubic bone. Is it worse when you do certain movements?
Hate to say the shooting pain in your thigh and bum sounds like a trapped sciatic nerve. Hope it goes away very soon for you!

Haha I never got that glow either, although everyone kept saying I looked like I had it! actually it was my shimmery blusher! Wink

Cupcake92 · 06/02/2015 22:57

Tori u take it easy! U need a few day to relax and rest. Hope u feel better soon.

And it's hard to explain why it's difficult. But I think I might even talk to my mom and look into things and see how to about it all too.

Siarie · 06/02/2015 23:15

In due the 27th of April, I'm sure someone other than Steph was due in Feb?

Ducky23 · 07/02/2015 06:55

Omg I'm so tired! For some reason ds was waking every 2 hours again last night! Confused

Cupcake, does that mean coming clean about the marriage?

Bearsinmotion · 07/02/2015 07:54

I think it's me - due 26 Feb!

Siarie · 07/02/2015 08:11

That's right bears! So your next then Lil, then me followed by Tori. Depending if anyone else pops in and corrects this!

26th Feb, not long to go now! How you feeling Bears?

Cupcake92 · 07/02/2015 08:13

Not long left Bears! :)
There's lots of babies due soon it's exciting :)

Ducky could he be having a growth spurt? As that makes them sleep a lot less. And well my mom knows it's everyone else that doesn't, like my nan and grandad. But if we were to split yeah they'd have to know ;/
I dunno why but I'd feel bad for H as I know he hasnt got anything but us.
For me of we split ive got lots of potential and im independent n like living in my own but H wouldn't be able to live on his own as he just isn't capable. He can't wash clothes he can only cook the bare minimum, can't clean bathrooms. The list goes on. He'd end up loving back at his dads. So id feel bad :/

OP posts:
Ducky23 · 07/02/2015 08:34

I don't think so, I think he had a growth spurt the other day, he ate loads then slept for the day apart from waking for feeds... Maybe it's lasting longer this time.

It's like having an extra child having a h that can't do anything!

LuluJakey1 · 07/02/2015 09:04

Cupcake you are bonkers (said with all affection). Of course he can wash clothes and clean bathrooms, he just doesn't bother to learn properly because you do it all. Are you seriously telling us you stay in this marriage and put up with everything you do because DH would have to do things for himself and wouldn't have such a nice life if he wasn't living with you? You need a kick up the bum and a locksmith. You are far too nice and not thinking straight.

It is very frosty here this morning- fresh and sunny. We are going up to the country park for a long walk. See you all later.

MrsPopple29 · 07/02/2015 09:20

Hello Smile

Am still following thread fairly regularly, this is such a lovely, supportive group and a great place for good advice! Congratulations to lulu and Ducky if I haven't said in a previous post!

Just a little update from me... I'm nearly 21 weeks and due June 22nd. Had scan last week and we are having a little GIRL! Flowers All is fine, sickness finally went away at 16ish weeks, which is great timing as we had a very stressful school inspection the week after. Finally feel like I've got my life back now though.

Cupcake, sorry to read you're having such a crappy time at the moment. Thoroughly agree with lulu's previous post though! You deserve to be really happy x

If u put it that way lulu it's sounds really bad and silly of me. I think its more I want everyone to be okay and happy. I don't wanna take the blame of ruining someone's life and making it worse etc. It's just really hard, not only saying it's over but moving him out, then trying to arrange visitation for DS and making sure DS is safe. I won't feel sure he's safe if he's at H's fathers house. Just seems a lot of stress, hassle and worry :( I don't want ds to be taken away from me and I know what H and his dad are like and they will do anything at all to take DS from me. His dad made up lies about H's mom just so he could take custody of H. I don't know what id do if I lost DS :( and H always makes me feel like a bad mom.
I just don't know what to do.

Congrats Popple that's brilliant news :)
