ironing baby clothes!, I'm not is that bad?
re lottery I do hospital radio been a major part of my life the station us run entirely by volunteers and we are a registered charity I used to be the membership secretary on the commitee for 5 years it was lots of fun but lots of hard work it was like having 2 jobs! I would love to win lottery and do much more for the station. we have achieved so much with the majority of people having full time jobs. I would love a house with indoor pool but would have to extend one or maybe build an eco one from scratch as I could not leave the village I'm in am in love with it. I would like to keep some chickens do lots of gardening and adopt quite a few children. Aw that was a nice world to wallow in.
I think about lottery wins a bit too much ... though it stopped when I got preg with dd I could tell how my life was going by how much I wanted some times would just have fantasies about 10k to pay off debts.

VQ I do want a small gap BUT no way did I want to be preg for my trip to India! And (now sods law has been provoked ill start tomorrow morning)IF I was preg I would start my full blown MS in India. No way I could deal with that.

I choose the pill as I know I want to be on it for a relatively short time. Implant, injections all seem to be long term. The coil. Argh the coil. After the internal examination and mw inserting the Pessary episode. (I screamed , I swore , in a ward full of ppl and it was the size of a shoelace! ) just thought of anyone trying to put anything up there is terrifying. GET YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER DET AND VQ.

Woah that post is big hard to tell on phone app in summary lottery = more hospital radio, bigger house, chickens :)

And ps WTF det. Ironing baby clothes.
The only things I iron are Hs 6 work shirts per week. N my traditional Indian outfits which is on average one per month.
Occasionally trousers a tshirts maybe. But LO baby grows! No way.

It's always us accused VQ. Always us...

Can't think why.

GT The injection lasts for 3 months. Same drug as the mini pill. You only need to remember once every 3 months.

I'm crap at remembering to take things.

I love seeing them ironed and looking all new. Sad fucker. I wear unironed clothes. My children do not. Go figure...!

DP does his own. Thank goodness.

Zcos that's great re hospital radio. I'd love to have an interest like that.

Me too GT. I don't seem to have time to shit. Let alone to do something for others.

Feel crap. I don't give enough to others!

I forgot to mention, when the dog jumped in the car on the baby earlier, I pissed myself laughing and had to change my knickers. I want my pelvic floor to have a floor. Not a trap door.

do you iron the sleep suits too found that v hard to do.
oh and have to give shout out for 23 snaps best app to share children's photos and updates with friends and family! found it good as colleagues and old school friends don't want to see constant photos of d friends and family can't get enough so I can feed my photo obsession there and mil and family in Japan as well as everyone else gets to see photos everyday ... they don't even need to log in to see them it sends a daily update email ... basically its fab and free! anyone else use it?

Thanks det! Injection seems perfect. I wonder if u can just go to sexual health clinic n they do it straight away or would I have to see Dr.

Off to research.

doing radio show this Thursday I hope last show was a month before dd was born will hopefully get to do a show every few weeks or so its only 3 or so hours out of the house but will be fab playing my faves (and obligatory rod s track) whilst having a laugh with my besties!

I think you have to have it at start of period, so POAS, and ring your GP surgery tomorrow to ask what procedure is where you are!

Varies PCT to PCT surgery to surgery often too.

Yep, I iron them inside out and buttoned up - I wash them that way. Soon as a babygrow is taken off, it is buttoned up inside out!

Then I turn them the right way round and give a light iron over that side. Steam helps.

I didn't do test a year ago! It was 11 months ago. I got my BFP in feb. stupid stupid me.

What have we said that is rude? Now I could have mentioned detectives ring sting but I didn't. Wish I had now.

I cannot wash anything inside out let alone buttoned up. Just cannot.

Well DD1 is back in bed and DD2 has coughed and woken the baby. Not come close to sleep yet.

I was going to say GT but I was being kind haha!

I did mine on 24th Feb. I did one on 23rd, but didn't trust it!

I was 3+2 when I got my BFP.

You know me... can't wait for anything.

Bugger, it was 22nd I did it on. I did the CBD on 23rd.

It also means I knew I was pregnant for 10 months and 1 day. Longest. Pregnancy. Ever.

I just said I can't wait for anything. Well. I lied!

Oh FFS. I can't remember. It was feb. I was 3+2. That I do know!

I'm scratching my head looking at calender. LMP was 2nd Feb. 26 day cycle. Conceived 13-14th. I think I did get my BFP on 23rd, then again on 24th and 25th, 26th ,27th...

Dectective that sounds about right as I got mine 13th march and was already 4+ weeks and I was due 21st.

That's it game over - im leaving the selfish bastard - Dottie been a bugger trying to get down since 11 normally goes 11.30-12 nope every time she drifts off and I transfer off she goes - in the end I bury my head under a pillow trying to ignore her cries getting more and more hysterical while I'm sobbing my eyes out cos I don't know what the fuck she wants and he just lies there - I keep thinking he'll get up in a minute and take her downstairs - surely he can feel the bed shaking from me crying - and still he doesn't move - he's fucking awake but no - in the end I grab her and stomp downstairs

What an utter wanker - fuck you while you sleep and I just sit here in bits. If I'm doing everything on my own then fuck it I'll be on my own / you carry on playing far fucking cry while I have to remind you to put the kettle on for a bottle, then remind you to fucking make it and to bring it up.

Tomorrow I will mostly be finding a new house to rent on right move and asking dad for a deposit!!!

She's asleep on my shoulder while I watch prince Harry doc - she's so going to go nuts if I try going to bed but this sofa is horrible and is the dogs bed so will piss her off!!!

Sorry for always moaning - that's all I seem to do

Bright ideas wanted...
It seems that most nights now, on one of her nighttime feeds, LO wakes up & is wide awake, for hours, until she gets so overtired she screams herself to sleep. Take now, have been up for 90 minutes and she's just dropped off, but it has taken me coming downstairs. She's in a grobag, fed in the dark, nappy not changed. So how can I keep my sanity get her to settle quicker??

glenda you're not the only one burying their head under the pillow. Tonight I was too tired for tears, but there have been plenty along the way.

Oh glenda I am sorry x my DH would do exactly that, and I have asked him why. He says that he is waiting on me to ask for help. He says he needs it spelled out and is afraid to offer help as I may interpret it as suggesting I cannot cope. He says he is aware of what is happening but stays looking asleep so as not to put pressure. He says he is not a mind reader. He has a point. I however fail to see how he can be pretending to sleep yet is snoring. On the odd occasions I have specifically asked for help he has done so slowly and grudgingly.

Men are very very different creatures to us. They do not see and feel things as we do. I think it is to do with their brain being located in their dick. I do not know the exact ins and outs of your situation, but hopefully you will feel better about things in the morning. I encourage you to have a frank and open discussion with him, perhaps showing hime the above post.

And dottie, be good for mummy and go to sleep in your cot

Big hugs x

BP she will in time. Remember she has only been breathing for a short length of time. She is still mastering that and has no concept of day or night. At night I resist the urge to take him downstairs and stay in the darkened room. They need to learn that room is for sleeping and if they go downstairs it is morning and time for waking.

Still no fucking sleep here. DH is asleep and snoring like a train. DD2 is still coughing. Poor little bugger. DD1 is dreaming about iCarly and DS is sleeping really well.

Think how you would cope with my night gt before you have a second.

I am going to try to sleep now. Hopefully you are sleeping like a man glenda

vq if I stay in the room she gets more and more worked up. I come downstairs and within 10 minutes she's nodding off. It just makes no sense to me! Going to attempt to put her back upstairs...hope you too can sleep like a man!
