May 2009 toddling along...

[momino]

here we are. How long will this thread last?

Thanks cupboard it's not actually a mortgage issue though, cos we've scraped together some cash thanks to fortunate inheritances and the like. So the mortgage chief might not be the right guy thank you so much for the offer though. I'll contact you tomorrow anyway :)
Also good idea to have some counselling sessions. They could help you get your mind organised and see things a bit clearer. I suppose visiting relationship threads on MN is as bad as googling illnesses.

All the best and goodnigt :)

running typing on phone too hence the x-post presumably. Will try my utmost to take it easy promiss :o

Belgina if it's the current account issue, I can definitely find someone half decent to speak to... FB me tomorrow and I'll give you a phone number I shouldn't have

Can I just say AAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH

I thank you

Cupboard - come back and offload if you want. I'm around this evening. You can have an un-MNy hug if you want or I'll join you in kicking the cat/wall/object of choice.
You are in the middle of tough times and if there is anything that I can do that may help, just say the word.

I think Dandy's idea is a good one. Why don't you do it, Cupboarddoor?

And I second the group hug too.

Sheesh. I was hoping 2011 would be a better year.

Hope you are ok cupboard

Hope you're OK cupboard
And thank you for all your help earlier today :)

It's a good idea to start a thread off the beaten track, but I'm afraid that it might be so far that I might not find it

thanks all.

Stumbles in late but wants to join the hug.

How was your night Cupboard. Did you get much sleep?

Fecking banks Belgina. Hope it gets sorted today. Grrr.

Thanks for all your FB messages . Am relieved to be out of hospital, and now have 6 - 12 weeks at home recovering. Am v v sleepy. Kids get back from Center Parcs tomorrow so I have a day to work out how to stop B from using me as a trampoline .

Hello everyone else. Will nc later when I'm a bit more with it. Just taking in the morning BBC news and Riven's headline story. Really hope she now gets the support she needs.

Hi reggie. Sorry, somehow missed you went in to hospital. What was the matter? House is sorted and I had the keys yesterday afternoon. It was lovely to have a little wander around with it all empty. Can't wait for tomorrow to move in properly :o

Otherwise not so good news here. AF was due and arrived today. I'm pretty sure this is the end. I had a few clots and stuff :( Oddly I still feel nauseous and I still have SPD type achiness in my pubic bone. I feel that over the last 2 weeks I've had a proper rollercoaster ride. Up: contract for house sorted, even more up: BFP! crash down: cousin dies. Then my scan after a bit of brown loss which really caused me to go up and down several times in a day. Now this. I suppose I should call in sick for my night shifts this weekend, but I feel guilty doing it

How are you cupboard?

belgina- sorry you've had such a rollercoaster over the last few weeks.

I think you would be justified in calling in sick - how close are you to your manager - would you want to tell them about it? Before DS1 I had an early mc at 5 weeks and i was devastated - I'd only had a week of feeling pg but it was still a big loss and i was crying a lot. My manager gave me as much time off as i needed - I went back once i'd stopped bleeding.

reggiee - I saw you'd had an op on FB but wasn't sure what for and whether it was connected to post-birth complications down below so didn't want to ask on FB . Hope you are recovering well.

Cupboard how are you today? I really feel for you - I was going to FB message you but wasn't sure if you'd rather be left alone - just let us know what/if we can do to help you through this.

dandy - sorry about the BFN - it must be hard to know what's for the best when you know that it would be risky to have another DC. I am no longer broody and am looking forward to life with big DCs - even booked a holiday to Eurodisney which is stressing me out (the thought of the drive with the 3 DCs fighting in the back ) but if you can make it round the world with your DD and DS then I'm sure i will cope!

Pula, thank you. The bleeding has settled and I ha e phoned work, who took me off without question for the weekend. I'll have to see my GP I think if I feel I need more time. They're always undrstanding, being a bunch of mws, they'd have to be I suppose.

As for long distance car journeys with dcs (I'm very experienced with this), there's only 1 solution: an in car DVD player, worth every penny :o We used to be able to travel for 4-5h from the kids to Dover without a peep out of them! I'd love to take ours to EuroDisney, but I want to wait until C's a bit older.

Just to let you know ladies that I have namechanged. All the coverage in the press of Riven has made me really aware of how public mumsnet is and how they can find out where you are and all sorts of personal stuff.

I did have a repetive name before and have a DS2 called S so hope you can work out who i am.

You can call me pika

Gotcha. I've been thinking about a new name too.

Belgina, I think you should take as much time off as you need, and really take good care of yourself. I'm so sorry.

Belgina, so sad to hear your news. Don't feel guilty at all about missing the night shift. You need to look after yourself.

Pika good idea on NC

Reg hope you recover very quickly, and that everything has been sorted for you

OK day here. Getting very pissed off with feeling constantly sick (I think it's stress / an emotional response). Actually threw up all of my tea last night. It puts me off eating even more. Still talking lots to DH, no idea how it will turn out. The limbo thing is utterly doing my head in, but I suppose the rational part of my brain tells me we need to go through this stage to get to the other side...

Hi all.
Sorry to not have been on here of late. In fact, it's a quick post from me today.

I just wanted to say sorry to Belgina for your news and to be sure to give yourself a break. take care of yourself.

Cupboard, a big hug to you. Wish we were closer. did you say you went to counselling? I hope that it helps and is another good place to offload. Anyway thinking of you.

Dandy, your posts made me smile! Good to see you here.

I want to name check everyone but really need to get back to work right now.

Love to you all. x

belgina so sorry and I hope you can take it as easy as possible x

cupboard hope you're ok today x

hello to everyone else, am shattered. just got in from a parents evening where half the parents didn't turn up grrr

Thanks everyone. It's difficult to take it easy with us moving house and everything. The bleeding had stopped for now, but I've still got period type pain. The dcs are about to go to bed and then I'm going to sit down and do nothing :)

pika I think I know who you are. All this name changing is making me a bit confused though. I'm not worried about rl people 'recognising' me. I only really come on here and what I tell you guys about myself is not really a secret. Even this pregnancy/possible misc is ok if others find out though I'm not advertising it, IYKWIM.

cupboard. Hope the limbo stage passes soon.

running, about the parents not turning up. hope you have a relaxing evening though.

pika, I think I know who you are as well.

belgina, hope you're enjoying doing nothing.

I also wonder - do I need to change my name?

ok. I'm back to work. really going back. after a few moments, eating then going out with DH to the pub! In laws here so we're taking advantage of the babysitters. what are DH and I going to talk about though ?

I've gone and done it now. I've given him a bit of an ultimatum. I was fed up with the limbo. And now he's going to walk away. I'm such an idiot. What have I done

Oh no cupboard don't know what to say. Hopefully you can have another talk with him soon.

momi I'm doing absolutely nothing at the moment and I'm about to go to bed. Last night in this house!

Cupoboard YOU ARE NOT AN IDIOT. You can't live in limbo for weeks and weeks (maybe stretching to months and months). It's not fair on you .

Belgina . How are you today? I guess moving is the last thing you feel like doing today. Try to take it easy (easier said than done I appreciate).

Momi how are things with you? How is dh? Hope you had a nice evening.

Hi Pika .
