Sorry guys, have had no internet for a few days. It's been playing up so if I vanish for a bit that is the reason.

Hi dweeby! Sorry to hear of your mc SadThanks

Hope you and ds are feeling better lulu! Sounds like you had a nice time, was the surprise the flowers?

That's crap about the house cupcake, hopefully you will find something else soon. I got a card and chocolates Smile

Cupcake92 · 07/03/2016 18:53

Ah okay ducky :) as long as ur okay!
Aaww bless I wish I got chocolates ! I got a key ring lol!

Hoping a house comes up before DS2 goes into his own room as he doesn't have his own room atm Grin

Yes the surprise was the flowers. And some Rose and Violet Creams from Hotel Chocolat. But the best bit was the cuddles and kisses and croaks from DS Grin

Ducky- where are you living now?

Cupcake, I thought that landlord might come back to you. Not much you can do if it is just too much. I am shocked by rents. Lots of mortgages are less than rents. It isn't fair. That was nice to go out for a meal.What did you have? I have had a rubbish tea tonight. I have been at work. When I got back DH and DS had eaten- shepherd's pue . I won't eat it because of the meat so I have had cold quorn sausage sandwiches.

LuluJakey1 · 07/03/2016 20:11

Pie not pue Grin

Siarie · 08/03/2016 16:37

Well well well Grin

Cupcake92 · 08/03/2016 20:45

What flowers were they Lulu? I love lilies :) they are my fav, remind me of my auntie.
I'm carrying on looking for a house I'm sure a better one will pop up :)
Oo I had a carvery for my meal Sunday! And a big slab of red velvet cheesecake.

Oo hello Siarie!!! How are u?

OP posts:
LuluJakey1 · 08/03/2016 21:18

They were mixed Cupcake- stargazer lillies, dusty pink roses, and bluey purple irises, pink carnations, pinky purple lisianthus and dark pink tulips. Very pretty

Red velvet cheesecake sounds yummy. I could just eat that now.

I am still scaley. DH says I am turning into Lizard Woman. DS has got his voice back and is making good use of it.

Is DS1 feeling better after his antibiotics?

Cupcake92 · 09/03/2016 23:01

They sound beautiful Lulu!!
Has ur eczema not improved?
Glad DS has his voice back!

Ds1 is feeling fine now :) he's finished his antibiotics today and is lots better. Being very loving and giving me endless cuddles. He also brushed my hair this morning and said 'better now mummy!' Hahaa Grin he loves doing my hair.

I'm tired today! Took DS to nursery and me and DS2 came back to bed!

Lulu you should try aveeno lotion, that is really good for dry skin and eczema, works wonders.
Hi dweeby, glad I'm not the only one Smile
Congratulations on your baby. My lo doesn't nap well during the day either, only of I'm holding him in my arms.
Sorry you didn't get that house cupcake that's a shame but there's no point in stretching yourself financially in my opinion.
Hope you're ok ducky.

LuluJakey1 · 10/03/2016 22:50

It has improved a bit. I keep forgetting about the cream. DH calls me 'Liz' or 'Lizzy' short for 'Lizard' .

Ds has had a limpet morning today. I just want to lie in a cool dark bedroom and not be near other people (DH)

Cupcake92 · 12/03/2016 07:38

Oh dear Lulu I think u need to find a nickname for DH lol!
Hope ur feeling okay Lulu

Ducky I hope ur okay? Have u found a house yet? How's DS?

I'm off for a photo shoot with the boys and my mom she wants a family picture Grin not looking forward to it as I hate pics. !

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 14/03/2016 06:55

I hope everyone's okay?

My phone is practically broken it's deleted lots of contacts and apps and keeps freezing. Safe to say it's messed up!

Also I'm feeling very ill today. I think I've eaten something that hasn't agreed with me. Well I'm hoping so because I don't want the DC's to catch anything and be throwing up Grin

OP posts:
LuluJakey1 · 15/03/2016 19:36

Are you feeling any better Cupcake? Hope the DCs haven't caught it. I felt nauseous this morning but then I forgot about it. Smile

Cupcake92 · 15/03/2016 21:53

Yes much better thank u Lulu :) I deffo think it was the chicken I ate. It was pre cooked from asda and DS didn't eat it as he refused it! But I ate and was so sick!

How is everyone?

Ducky how are u doing?

Going to see another house Friday :) this one is lovey and a perfect price!!

OP posts:
LuluJakey1 · 15/03/2016 22:10

What is it like?

Is it safe for Ziggy?

Cupcake92 · 16/03/2016 06:57

It's got a good sized kitchen and big dining area so I can put a table and have DS's toys in there. It's got a good sized garden with a shed which is good. And it's on a lovely little culdesac right near the school i want DS to go to plus it's only a 5 min walk to his nursery from there. Yes very safe for ziggy it's away from the main road so nice and quiet :)

Oh I've got to start potty training DS on Friday! I've brought him 25 pairs of pants Grin he's already been on his potty twice by choice and earned himself 2 stars. I've told him once he gets to 5 stars we can go to the shop and he can pick a prize. He's got a lovely reward chart up on the door :)

OP posts:
LuluJakey1 · 16/03/2016 20:23

That is excellent of DS, Cupcake. It sounds like he is going to do it easily now. Wish DS was ready. He can poop for England.

The house sounds lovely. When could you move?

Sometimes I would like to move out into the country but everything is so easy living here. It's a nice street, safe for DS and the cats, lovely walks, places to play and trees, a park. We're staying put at the moment.

Cupcake92 · 16/03/2016 21:19

Well Lulu he's gone and earnt himself all 5 stars today! He stayed in pants from 12:30 till bedtime with no accidents and now he gets to have a trip to the shop tomorrow after he's been to his dad's to pick what prize he wants :) so proud of him!!

It's available from 14th may :) which is nice as it gives me plenty of time to pack everything up!
I think Lulu it's nice to move but sometimes it's easier to stay put as u say! It sounds beautiful where u live tho :)

OP posts:
LuluJakey1 · 16/03/2016 22:45

It is just a semi Cupcake- nothing flash about our house.

Is DS proud of himself?

zombiemeow · 17/03/2016 13:33

I'm back!!!

My internet went completely down and I run out of data on my phone so couldn't get on the Internet at all! It was awful.

When are you moving cupcake?

I have come back home. Me and h had a VERY long talk, it made me realise that there was so much he did that pissed me off that I wouldn't talk to him about, I'd just keep it inside and get angrier and angrier.

I was moaning about the house constantly being a tip and being cluttered and dark, when I came back he had re decorated the whole place and threw out bags and bag fills of junk. He now tidies without being asked and even told me off for being messy Blush I hope he keeps it up.

And in even bigger news. I had been v I'll the last few days.... I'm pregnant Blush no idea how far I am. Am waiting for q call from the dr now and I guess I'll be sent for an early scan.

Cupcake92 · 17/03/2016 23:16

Wait... What?
May sound strange but how? Thought u and h weren't intimate?

Please just be certain about what u wanna do. U seemed so sure before about h. Make sure u are truly happy okay?
I'm kinda jealous! Grin ds2 is such a good baby I wish I could have another as always wanted 3 Grin

If I get this house I'll move on 14th may. Fingers crossed!

Oh and yes lulu he's so proud!
He went to nursery in pants today as he refused his nappy but he had lots of accidents!

My day is so busy tomorrow, doctors at 8am as apparently I need a check up before I'm allowed more of my contraceptive pill Hmm I've run out so had none all week and I've started bleeding again after finally stopping 4 weeks of constant bleeding! So im not impressed Hmm then I've got mine and ds1's hair cut at 9:30am and I've got to help my mom out as she's hurt her back quite badly, then the house viewing at 1pm!
I'm tired thinking about it all Grin

OP posts:
famousmonsters · 18/03/2016 05:54

Sounds like you have a busy day cupcake! And woo to ds in his pants!

We weren't intimate but once we had talked things through and made up it happened Confused we have been together 10 years, I think our relationship just got put on the back burner and left and just went.... I don't know, we shall see what happens, he knows that if I get unhappy I will leave and he has accepted that.

The pregnancy came as a huge shock to me, I only found out yesterday and feel a bit lost as I don't know what going on in terms of the hospital etc. I think it's very early days so you never know what will happen. I'm very worried ds will be upset Sad

LuluJakey1 · 18/03/2016 18:33

Do you mean you have gone back in the last couple of weeks and got pregnant Ducky? So just a few days?
That is all very unexpected. Hope you feel better than you did. Things sounded so awful by the time you left and he behaved so oddly then- pulling curtain rails down, stabbing work surfaces with the knife, trying to hang himself. Are you sure it is safe for you and DS?

You have changed your name again too. I didn't realise it was you until I read the post.

It is freezing here tonight. DH is making tea- prawns and vegetable rice. DS had scrambled egg and toast and is ready for bed. He has had a very busy day and is looking tired Smile

duckyisback · 18/03/2016 18:44

I had no idea my name has changed Confused have changed back to ducky to save confusion.

Yes the following day we spent the whole day talking things out and discussing what needs to happen. Things have been pretty much great since it all happened now. He is well aware of the fact that if anything happens from now it is the end. I stayed at my moms for a bit then came home when I saw he was making a real effort. He has kept it up so far so we will see how it goes.

As for the pregnancy, it's very confusing, a few times I have had a bit too much to drink and things happened. I had been unwell the past few days then I suddenly thought I could be so took a test and it came up straight away. I'm still in shock tbh. I think it's still very early days though.

It's been freezing here too! Can't wait for summer!
