Feel better now PR?!

VQ LOL! 137 kids... bahaha! Fuck you Dave! My old CM's just charged me for the set hours I needed. Eg. 12-6, or 9-2 or whatever. Was a bit Confused as I thought most CM's worked on an hourly basis unless you wanted the space for the full day. I know nurseries charge for the full day, but the benefit to me using a CM was not needing to pay for a full day. Might as well use a nursery if I'm being charged the full day.

We won't be entitled to UC VQ. I earn 'too' much. :( It's never too much though, is it?!

My earnings last year was 33k, this year will be about 28K I think, back up to 34K next year.

DP earned 11k last year, will be about 8k this year, and down to 6k next year.

So last year combined was 44k, this year 36k, next year 40k. On all incomes we are entitled to SFA!

On the old system, we would have been entitled to at least the tenner a week this year and next year. DC's system, feck all!

TheDetective · 06/02/2013 12:28

Is it wrong that I know what we will earn roughly this year and next?!

Anal annie when it comes to finances! Blush

TheDetective · 06/02/2013 12:29

And of course £30k of that was probably spent on car repairs.

PetiteRaleuse · 06/02/2013 12:30

If it is bright red blood then he's not bleeding from his stomach VQ what you are describing sounds nothing like what brufen could cause. Please don't worry, as I said, I'm a freak !

Plus what you give to babies is in liquid form. They think that what happened to me is that one or more of the pills kind of lodged itself in the stomach and gnawed its way through. And as I said yesterday to glenda there would be other symptoms if the bleed was due to medication.

TheDetective · 06/02/2013 12:44

VQ probably teaching granny Grin to suck eggs, but have you checked for an anal fissure?

ValiumQueen · 06/02/2013 12:55

How would I check detective it is a very little hole. It was mucousy blood. It was bright red PR so not tummy as you say. I did check said hole, and it appeared fine, and there was no blood on the wipe. I thought it would be easier with a third. I thought I would worry less, but I guess he is my 'baby' and he is being more 'interesting' than the girls were, from a medical POV.

TheDetective · 06/02/2013 13:03

I didn't mean check as such as considered lmao! Bad wording!!!

Though DS1 had one right at the anus so you could actually see it.

I had a google and thought this might be of intrest?

ValiumQueen · 06/02/2013 13:06

Thank you detective I will keep an eye. He gets a bit wriggly and angry before a poo, as i think we all do, then looks relieved and sometimes laughs when he has done it. I think a fissure may result in a less grateful expression.

ValiumQueen · 06/02/2013 13:09

DH has been driving with the lights on full beam Grin He is doing really well actually- he collected DD2 from Nursery last night and took her this morning. Such a help.

TheDetective · 06/02/2013 13:14

Wait til he leaves the side lights on VQ and you have to rescue the bastard! Grin

ValiumQueen · 06/02/2013 13:22

Thankfully we have a car wot beeps if you leave anything on. Also as we have the one car, I could not rescue him. We have got breakdown cover though.

Passmethecrisps · 06/02/2013 13:57

Hallo.

Fuck blood VQ. I hope the wee man's bum is in one piece so to speak. I don't think you can ever worry less. They are always your baby.

Fuck the housework PR. Just that

Get tae fuck mrdetective!

Would anyone else like a swearing at?

Passmethecrisps · 06/02/2013 13:58

Checked the pocket horsey very cute. That will aid me in moments of shy nae matesness

Feel sicky. More with nerves than anything else. Daftness. Decided to drive to parent to stay two nights. It feels inevitable that I will forget something utterly vital

MissMummy1 · 06/02/2013 14:05

Fuck it I bought it. If we only ever use it for a couple of flights it will be money well spent. Might leave it at my mum's house the rest of the time as my big pram is a bugger in her car.

GTbaby · 06/02/2013 14:14

Go away MrDetective!

Need to start research h double buggy.

Had my first bile puke session this morning.

DH keeps saying a small gap is good. We don't have to worry about child care for another year.

Oh dear crying baby.

horseylady · 06/02/2013 14:29

Cute isn't it pass lol

Pr - your story was kind of my point. Most people can take them, but some people have a hugely strong reaction to them which nearly kills them. I know a chap who had a similar issue.

I've just bought a 2nd hand ergo. Genuine one. Looking forward to it arriving!!

Oh and they're little play date cards in the zip lol

Just waiting for the hv to call me back, I think ds has reflux.

horseylady · 06/02/2013 14:37

Just read my post back and realise I didn't mention the people who can have issues with small doses. I thought it.

Pikz · 06/02/2013 14:45

Fucking 12 week growth spurt at 11 weeks. 42oz milk yesterday heading for new record today... Mummy and pump on her knees. He will end up on formula at this sodding rate.

Now for bcg and then to pick up shitting car from service which is costing the price of a holiday to do all the bits.

Fuck fuck you Wednesday

StuntNun · 06/02/2013 14:57

Looks like this is the sweary thread today so fuck shittity bollocks we got turned down for our mortgage. Off to download credit reports. Hmm

to you Pikz, the growth spurt won't last long. Could you have a bottle of cooled boiled water on standby for if you need to catch up on pumping?

Pikz · 06/02/2013 15:02

Set pass on them stunt :( we got turned down for one as we had no active loans or credit card debt. Flipping ridiculous big hugs xxx

horseylady · 06/02/2013 15:20

Booooo effing reflux. Drs Friday for gaviscon.

Right what else can I do to help him??!!

Poor little mite (and my poor washing machine).

horseylady · 06/02/2013 15:21

Stunt - hugs. I never get why some people get approved and others don't.

What will you do?!

ValiumQueen · 06/02/2013 15:29

Hugs to all needing them.

pikz give the odd bottle of formula if it will help your sanity. You are doing so very very well. Remember you are a Legend!

PetiteRaleuse · 06/02/2013 15:39

Bugger stunt , that sucks.

I have had a nap and feel no better. DH looked after the girls. Who slept throughout my nap jammy sod He's now gone out and LO of course is wide awake and whiny.

Jst received a huge box of ebay clothes for DD1. She's sorted for the year. I love ebay..
