April 2014 ttc thread - come on baby cupcake!

[zombiemeow]

Shiny new thread and this time I got the title right!

We're all waiting for baby cupcake to come along

Doctor said DS1 has a viral infection.... As always!
He's been sick again today and not moved off the sofa at all! :( :(
The health visitor said she's going to wait to see what the doctors says at my appt on Friday then call me next week and maybe come round once a month to see how I'm doing.

That's a good idea to have a chat with a solicitor ducky. I wouldn't just sign over the house tho as ur entitled to half of what it's worth.
Benefits would be housing benefits, council tax support, child tax credits and child benefits. Also job seekers or if u say ur caring for someone u could enquired about carers allowance and if u qualify for that then u could get income support instead of job seakers where u aren't expected to look for work.

I'm getting carers allowance at the moment. Tbh cupcake if it makes everything easier I don't want anything to do with the house. I know I'm entitled to half but it seems like such a faff and I just want to be away with ds.

Bloody viral infections!!! That's all they ever say what's the dr for Friday cupcake? I thought today you got to talk stuff through with someone? Or is hv a bit rubbish?

Ds is still up and exhausted. He won't go to bed.

Friday she does through my questionnaire and will hopefully decide on meds for me. Health visitor was rubbish she never talked through anything ! I was supposed to talk through everything with her but she just asked how I was feeling and I told her and then that was it!

Aw bless u ducky. I hope this all goes fast and smoothly for u. U deserve a bit of happiness!!

I can't do this tho. I can't go another night with no sleep :( he's not even asleep n is moaning. I know he's ill but I'm so exhausted :(

Oh god cupcake, ds was up until about 12.45 no sleep at all. Then he woke up twice in the night and is back up now. I feel like I'm going to collapse. He's got worse again and I don't know what to do. I don't know f I can make it until Tuesday!

Oh no ducky :( :( it's awful isn't it?
I just hope for ur sake they find out why he's not sleeping and help DS !

My DS was up till 2:40am! :( then finally! Went to sleep. It was awful :(

That is crap. Why don't they understand. I read that by the age of 2 they start realising that sleep is good for them but based on your ds1 I'm not holding out much hope

Is he feeling any better today?

My DS1 has no idea how good sleep is! I wish he did! And I do try and tell him
He's feeling a little better but omg he's been awful today the tantrums he's thrown have been massive!

Found out today I have an inspection next week for the house!! Means deep cleaning everywhere and I so can not be arsed :(

Haha, I was holding out hope he'd get to two and have it sorted but I'll give up on that idea

Ohh I used to hate house inspections! In our last house we weren't meant to have animals and we had 2 dogs and 4 rats so there was always a lot of panic on the morning.

Ds is teething again, poor thing. His cheeks are so red.

Hello ladies! Sorry I have been missing for so long, back at work and looking after the two of them is just manic! And we've moved house and are still unpacking three months in .

Sorry to hear that both your H's are misbehaving :(. I am interested in how my DP will get on tonight. There is a family event at my work tonight, which I am working at. So DP is taking both DC and my nephew to the event, feeding them all and then taking them home and putting them to bed. He think it will be a doddle .

Poor DS had hand foot and mouth this week. He looked awful but was perfectly happy in himself. Grandma came to look after him and was exhausted chasing him round all day. He's very easy going still, but knows how to make his presence felt, especially when dealing with his big sister!

Ducky I'm not meant to have pets and have a cat! Last time he bloody came back and say at the back door and the man from the letting agents asked why there was a cat at the door I panicked and said 'oh it's the new neighbours cat he must have the wrong house'
Oh no not teething! :( poor thing!!

Hi Bears!!!! good luck to ur DH ! I hope he copes!
Aw bleas ur DS :( that's going round atm, I've seen a few that have been off at DS's nursery with it. Hope he's okay and it clears quick.

Well I had my docs appt. I've got an official diagnosis of post natal depression and have been put on medication :( I've been put on sertraline. She said I scored quite high in my questionnaire so medication is the best thing for me. Feeling a bit crap because I feel like I've failed a bit. But i can't wait to feel like myself again.

Hi bears! Sounds like you have been busy! You enjoying being back at work? Hope your dp can handle the dc and nephew lol at him thinking 3 will be a doddle when I barely manage with one
Hope your ds is feeling better too.

Cupcake, I can just imagine if he sees the cat in the house and you going 'bloody creepy cat is stalking me!' . Glad you finally have a diagnosis, you most definitely have not failed at all. You have done an amazing job with 2 lovely dc pretty much all on your own. You should be proud of yourself

Haha I'm hoping he goes out on an adventure but knowing my cat he won't want to go out !
Thank u ducky means a lot :)

I think DS is starting to get better. He looks less drowsy this morning

Hope ds1 is right as rain now

We had another bad night last night. Hoping for a better one tonight! Not long for my appointment too! Am hoping the consultant can speed up his allergy tests aswell. I was told the appt would be within 2 weeks, the letter came through the other day and it's mid april ! There must be something that's being missed why he's waking up so much

He's been absolutely fine today ducky :) back to himself!
Tho he's taken forever to get to sleep!

Omg April! I would deffo push for a sooner appt that's ridiculous!
I hope u had a better night tho ducky ?

I've started cleaning out the house today ready for the inspection. It's hard to do with 2 kids that constantly need u!

Well, not sleepy is normal for him so he must be feeling better

Ds is still awake. I asked h to come see to him, he just moaned at him for the last hour cus obviously that's going to get him to sleep he gets really frustrated with him too which really worries me.

In the end I just take him cus ds gets too upset and I feel awful. He calms down as soon as I get him.

I hope DS went to sleep eventually for u ducky!
How would u feel if h had ds overnight on his own?

He was up until almost 2am, then he woke up a couple of times and up at 4.30.

Tbh cupcake I would be terrified. I wouldn't trust him to have him over night at all. He gets so frustrated with him and it worries me. I don't think he'd cope at all.

I'm hoping though that when we split he won't ask for him over night as he knows he can't cope and he can't get out of bed in the morning.

Have started trying to find another house as I still haven't heard anything back from that one. I just want out of this relationship asap. Am seeing a solicitor next week (I think it was) so I know exactly where I stand with our current house. I'd be happy to just remove my name from the mortgage if that would make it easy, I can't do with arguing over it too.

Oh gosh ducky that's an awful night :(
What day do u have the sleep clinic? Is that this week?

Bless :( I'm the same, but thankfully exH hasn't asked to have the boys over night at all. He's admitted he'd rather not.

Have u tried calling about the house? House hunting is so hard. I hope u manage to find somewhere ASAP ducky :(

They're still looking into it, there is a way around it but i would have to say I have already moved out and I don't know what would happen if I did that.

The sleep thing is tomorrow I'm not expecting much though!

Our h'a are very similar so I'm hoping he won't have him over night either.

Oooo good luck with the sleep clinic!!!!

:) hope u get some answers!

Will update you with the magic answer we need a new thread again

Haha thanks ducky! I'll go make a new thread and post the link!! :) see u over there!!
