April 2013 TTC girls, where we ALL get our babies!

[Ducky23]

We quickly ran out of room on the old thread so here's a shiny new one

Sorry about your rat Tori.

That's excellent news Cupcake about the scan. Glad the coathanger trick worked. I read about it on mumsnet.

I am exhausted today. DS has been like a limpet all day. Just wanting to be carried round with me. DH has him in the bath at the moment. I just need a bit of space to myself

Hope you feel better Lill

Aww that's lovely cupcake

Posterior means it's at the back, anterior is at the front, previa (sp?) is down at the bottom (I think!) and I can't remember what's it's called if it's at the top

Aw bless Lulu I hope he sleeps and lies in for u tonight so u get a rest! :)

Ahh I see Ducky! :) well I'm glad that it's not a bad thing then how's ur DS doing Ducky?

My DS isn't asleep because the music from download is way too loud!! And it's far too hot and clammy to close the window :( going to be a long night for me! Anyone know when they stop the music?

Tori it's that loud u can hear every single word they sing and also scream!
I wish it was cold here! It's so muggy and sticky :(

Hey guys it's meeee (secretive duck!) have had to name change due to a cock up by mn sending my full name out to a bunch of mnetters have I just gave myself away again?

Hope you manage to sleep cupcake. think download goes on quite late you must be very close to it!

Oh no Cupcake! I hope the music from download didn't go on for too long! And glad Lulu's coat hanger trick worked!
DP is being mardy because I called him out on trying to get out of minding DS this morning while I went into the other room to get some sleep (DS kept me awake quite a but in the night) by telling me he had to get up at 8 even though he's only starting work at 12 Then he was like "I hardly had any sleep last night!" Could have fooled me, snoring away next to me while I was feeding DS! really pees me off that he complains about being tired and then when I point out how little sleep I've had he says "It's not a competition!"
Still got a bit of a cold but not as bad as yesterday.

Oh no Ducky! (?) how come they sent out ur real name?
And yes I'm supa close to it donnington is like 10 mins away.
I take DS to the airport often to sit and watch the planes. Usually grab a chips and sit in car eating chips and watching them fly over

Oh Lill that's annoying!! They would never cope if they had to do what us moms do and be up all the time! Sounds silly but I worry, what if something ever happens to me and their dad gets custody of them, how would he cope and would they get what they need? He struggles to have DS just 5/6 hours when I'm at work and DS doesn't get fed a proper lunch, just bags of crisps and biscuits (even tho I tell him exactly what sandwich to make and say DS love bananas give him one of those) like what would happen to them if he had them full time? I just pray I stay alive!

On the plus side DS has only just got up which is great! I woke up to DS2 kicking and moving around in my belly. Such a mover

Name changed again! I just can't seem to find one I like! Maybe this one will stick

Lil, that bloody annoys me, these men think they have it so hard

Cupcake sounds like ds is sleeping well recently! And lovely that ds2 is so wriggly

Oh my new name hasn't worked will try again

Hopefully this has worked

Sorry cupcake I meant to reply! Was doing this product test and they e mailed with the link for the feedback thread but you could see everyone's names all 400+ of them

Cupcake, I forgot to say how lovely it was to hear about your scan! I can't believe you're halfway through already! And how lovy that you can feel DS2 wriggling and kickin so much!

What do we call u now Ducky? I'm so confused! and that's rele bad they put all ur real names out! Can't believe that! But don't worry I still have no idea who u are

And thanks Lill :) I love feeling all the wiggles! Can't wait till he's here tho :)

My child will not sleep tonight!! he's chucked everything he could find all over the lounge and won't go up to bed.
I can't wait to lie down in bed I'm so sleepy

You call me whatever you want!

Oh no cupcake, I spoke to soon! Hope he goes to bed for you soon.

For the past 2 nights ds has been going up to bed at 8 on his own with his monitor on (still in our room) he is not great at settling but is slowly getting better. He is still having a night feed but is getting really good at solids and is starting to chew. He can also get onto his knees when on his tummy now not long until he is crawling I think!

It's okay literally 10 mins later he was in bed flat out! He was just fighting it lol
And that's brilliant! :) ur DS is growing up so quick! Can't believe he's nearly crawling!

I've been awake most of the night as I'm in agony!! :( my pelvis is so much worse at night now. I've just been in pain which has meant I've not had a solid sleep. Just keep waking up in agony and turning over and my hip pops :( really could have done with my physio straight away as I think they have left it too long now. I'm going to mention that to them as soon as I get my appointment! Not sure if it's worth complaining or not because I wouldn't have got to this stage if I'd had my physio straight away.
I also had a horrible dream that felt so real! Dreamt my mom picked DS up but drove off without him and none of us realised and I found him on the front in the middle of the night just standing there freezing cold.
I just want to go into his room now and hug him! My poor baby. It wasn't real but since being pg they feel real at the time! I feel bad

Would speaking to your gp help cupcake? Maybe they can help speed things up. It's not right that your left in pain like that has the belt helped in the day? I remember the awful pain I had after sleeping but mine only got really really bad right at the end, and yours sounds worse already!

Sounds like you have had a good day tori.

I'm stressing out a bit ATM. All day ds has been grouchy, he's not self settling and hasn't eaten much. He's been screaming on and off for about the past half an hour cus he is so tierd. He falls asleep when I hold him then wakes up the second I put him down

I'm going to call u zombie seen as it's the first bit of ur new name I've called the doctors this week but they couldn't do much and just said it'd take up to 4 weeks. Going to call again next week if I've still not heard and just tell them how much pain I'm in! And yes the belt works so well in the day! It's amazing!! I wish I was able to wear it at night :( and could DS be having another growth spurt maybe? My DS was like that a lot, not sleeping unless I was holding him. He sometimes still does it and has to fall asleep lying on my knee!

Oo Tori sounds like u had a lovely day! I had to go and meet my moms new dog haha. Done all the washing and cleaning too. But I'm just exhausted and rele hope I get some sleep tonight as I have work tomorrow!

I can't believe they would leave you like that cupcake oooohhh what dog has your mom got?

I think we're coming to the end of a growth spurt to be honest. He's only just gone to bed and he's only had about an hour/hour and a half sleep today but he's been grouchy all day! And he's not ate much today either.

My DS was like that the other day Ducky (I'm still going to call you Ducky because it's less confusing!) and it turned out he had a cold, so maybe your DS has picked something up and is feeling a bit under the weather?
I've been counting calories to try as lose some of the weight I've put on since having DS. I was the slimmest I've been in years directly after he was born (apart from my tummy obviously) but have put it all back on and more since due to eating so badly! Bf makes me so hungry and I got into the habit of eating lots of biscuits in the night I managed to stay within my allowance really well today but then just got really pecking so I'm having a ryvita with cottage cheese and an apple with two low fat baby bels! It'll have take me way over my calorie allowance for today but at least it isn't unhealthy.
I could do with going to sleep really but DS hasn't fed in at least two hours, possibly even three, so in expecting him to wake up any minute and if Ive just dropped off it's harder to wake up again immediately. I'm kicking myself for not going to sleep as soon as he did actually

I started doing that lil! When ds would wake up id have a biscuit while making his bottle! Have stopped getting any in now to stop myself!

He decided it was a 5am start today!

She got a pug not my favourite type of dog but she loves him.

Lill I couldn't shift my baby weight after DS and just kept saying to myself "I'll have one more child then I'll loose the weight" well I'm on my next child now so I've got to work hard after he's born I lost 2 stone in 3 months by only eating soup and yogurts for breakfast. So I might just do that again
