iggy just googled vajazzling at work. Probably wasn't a very good idea . Lets hope they are not monitoring my internet activity today Yay for 35 weeks - I bet you are looking forward to being on ML now.
blue I'm sorry your Isaac has chicken pox. Randomly, DTs had it exactly a year ago (we missed a party because of it). Must be the season for it. Anyway, my Isaac had it really badly, absolutely covered with spots and looked dreadful. DS2 had only a few spots and you barely knew he had it. They developed spots within an hour of each other - so it was weird how one child could be so badly affected, and the other not. Anyway, forgive my rambling but wanted to say that if you are having trouble with itching, get some piriton. Works a treat, much better than calamine IME.
Neeko you are indeed a milk machine. Am v . It took me ages to get 2-3 oz out. Can see your dilemma though - could you go cold turkey and stop the bf'ing but continue to express so she is getting your milk. If you can express that much in a short space of time it might not take you too much extra time. My sister did this, partly because she wanted to see how much my niece was actually taking.
MLS 4am is rough. Anything before 6am is inhuman with toddlers that don't have a nap during the daytime. Hope you have a better night tonight.
Vjay poor Ajay hope he stops puking soon. I am not sure I know which email address is yours out of the list - I only have the list of email addresses which were on cupcake's email with the pics of Jude. I haven't linked everyone up yet. Is there some other magical Emmsy's place that I don't know about?
LBM glad babyJ cleaned herself out in the end. Its horrible when they are constipated and you can't do much about it. Poor you having to deal with the nappies though.
barbie glad you kept your knickers on Am filing away in my mush of a brain that you have fabby new pill as I also can't take combined pill due to migraines and will have to think about what to do next (once I've had no 3 that is ) Hope that D continues to sleep lots at night. Bet you feel like a new woman now.
QA I'm sorry you are having such a rough time and the TTC is on hold. We're all here to talk if you want to.
4ever yay for getting out of the house. I'm sorry you are still suffering though, hope it heals up soon. Loving your posts though, you can tell how much you are in love with Summer and its so nice to read after your very stressful pg
cupcake you too. Having heard about your poor sore fanjos, it reminds me why I am going to chicken out of going down the natural birth route if I have another one. (In my defence I had CS first time round). Hope you had a good weekend at your parents and well done to you and to Jude for regaining his birth weight. 3hr feeds must be knackering.
Jools hope you got some bd action in this weekend Is your work likely to calm down anytime soon or is this normal?
sabs are you enjoying BB? I saw the first programme but have resisted since. Have no hope now as the world cup is on as DH is a football fanatic. Hope the teething is not causing too many problems - mine often had runny noses (and yukky nappies) when they had teeth coming through so it may linger for a while.
pfj thanks for the brownies. They were just what I needed So lovely Jack is staring to say so much, its very cute when they are just learning.
Justshaggy hope you are feeling better. I'm sure that if you are pg that your illness won't have affected the little bean.
baking good luck for your exams - what are they for?
monkey am v v pleased that you got the all clear from the lovely gynae Keeping fingers crossed that it all goes smoothly this time from start to finish.
Waves to mermaid, gracie, mrskate and moon
Thank you all for your hugs and support. I am wobbling a lot, partly I think because I need a really good cry and we've had relatives staying/visiting so have been having to put on a happy face. It has hit home more because we've seen lots of family who have children of a similar age to DTs and it is so apparent how different DS1 is. We went to my Dad's yesterday and you literally have to follow him around to make sure he is not doing something dangerous. All very stressful. Although we knew he had lots of autistic symptoms, I was hoping he was going to catch up and now I'm not sure he will . I'm also worried about the long-term future, whether he will ever be independent.
This morning was sitting at work almost in tears which is so not me at all. Fortunately its very quiet at work. I went for a run at lunchtime and feel a bit better now.
On the TTC front, DH doesn't appear to have (yet) changed his mind again despite the diagnosis. Operation seduction is not going to plan though as he is away on business this week. Rubbish timing. Keep your fingers crossed that I don't get a +OPK until at least Thursday (only on CD8 but usually get one at CD11-12 so its going to be touch and go.)
Oh and I'm in London (live West of london, but work in Central London). Would love to meet up if I can.
