That does sound bad detextive really hope someone listens to you soon!

hug zcos

Wow catbag I agree you are indeed superfluous! I have never thought about a will or life insurance. I think I've been awfully naive in assuming nothing will happen to me. I don't even know how you'd go about sorting a will. I'll have to look into it :/ and add it to my list of stuff to do which includes opening LO a bank account and sorting out passports!

fruit and soph my gland moves as does P's. get it checked out but I was happy that her lump and mine are the same thing. Better safe than sorry though.

I was shat myself in an ongoing dribbly manner as a student teacher.

I had a sore stomach and had wind. I was walking round my class letting out tiny little riffs every so often hoping that noone would notice. I did think that one child smelled bad though. At lunchtime I finally got a chance to go to the loo and realised that all my farting had actually been dribbles of bright orange liquid poo! It was a bit like the grease you get on top of curries. I had another class period 5 and was too scared to ask to go home. Had to sit on the bus like that as well.

If any of the children noticed then they certainly never let on.

bloody pages13 already???!!!

well I was on the new year catch up.

I'm a dragon, (77) Dh is a dragon (76) and ds is a little dragon too :)

nightmare wknd with breast refusals :( hoping a combo of post jabs plus growth spurt plus we thought 3 drops of coilef ok. it's not. at one point would only feed if I walked about with him had a nice bath though with a lovely feed and done well this evening fx. will attempt to catch up......

Does it pass? It's probably nothing then, I need to take S to the doctors anyway, I think she has eczema (sp?) so might as well get them to look while I'm there.

lol pass!!!!!

I played flute accompanying y2 on a song while y6 got ti see my skirt tucked up into my knickers.

I shart myself like that pass but thankfully after school when tidying my room, so just picked up my stuff & ran!!

In the embarrassing story vein, we were camping when I was about 11-13yo. Went swimming in a normal swimsuit. Sat near some maybe slightly older girls in a small pool & wondered why they gave me a funny look then left. My right tit was poking out the side of the swimsuit. At that age, I was mortified.

I am now sat with my right tit out & couldn't give a shit....

oh hugs to so many people.

we swim with our kids as sen - tits often escape during 'incidents'. I wear a teeshirt for this reason! not sure I don't have spiders legs though

On the mental health thing, in my area now they prioritise women who have had babies in the last year and they basically jump straight to the top of the waiting list for counselling/CBT. Don?t know if it?s the same elsewhere, but if anyone is dithering about asking for help, is worth doing so now just in case it is.

We went swimming when on holiday in a hideously busy pool. Dsd announced she needed a poo (now) so I lifted her out the pool and jumped out the pool, bypassing ladder. Unfortunately my bikini bottoms stayed in the water. My bottom did not

Dsd has also done a floater in a little beach stream i pretended she was nothing to do with me

And to complete the hat-trick, on a school camping trip my best friend went to the loo and returned to announce that she had somehow managed to get actual rabbit droppings inside her knickers, presumably on the previous toilet trip

I have a particularly childish sense of humour. Am very much enjoying the poo stories

I've started getting a bit of bleeding I presume from my epis / where I had internal stitching esp after DTD - should I give my doc an exciting change from reflux consults?

Gosh... lots of hugs to all.

DS just slept from 10;30 dreamfeed to 6am

I was just going to bury my head in the sand. I have a clinic appt on 7th March, after my demanding a second opinion. So I will wait til then I guess.

Hey, at least we aren't alone YW! I'm assuming it just isn't healed yet. But who knows.

Just read all the way back through the thread and nearly snorted at

zcos
Cat soup recipe please!

I mean I know we are all getting used to eating horse but really...

Anyway I won't say I pmsl as that is a sensitive subject but I came close. Personally I find my problem is more with accidental trumping than wee, even harder to cover up.

L has one of those little lumps, the GP said it was a gland.

Just felt so sad this evening. On the verge of tears. Not sure why. Had dinner at Mum's and the atmosphere was really weird although I don't know why. Then they all started quizzing me on 'why I looked sad' - you're not allowed to look anything other than blandly cheerful in my family. It was a bit much. Anyway. It's been a nice weekend and I feel sad DH will be back at work tomorrow. But it's not just that. Maybe it was the small g'n't I had before dinner. Dunno.

ARGHHHH!!!

This is what happens when you are stuck bfing and have a toddler.

DD came in just after I last posted. She had a toothbrush in her mouth that had NOT been used yet, holding her toothpaste and asking to brush her teeth.

The toothbrush was DRIPPING wet.

There is only one source of water in the bathroom that she could have reached.

blonde G&T can make some people a bit weepy. ((((hugs)))) to you too.

blonder you can't be full of the joys of spring every day! I know what you mean about blandly happy. I was always getting aske what was
Wrong with me as a younger woman. Nothing really - sometimes just feel heavy shouldered. Tomorrow is usually better

I have such an adolescent sense of humour. I love stories about poo and pee. If you can't laugh . . . Seriously zcos I would cry in your boat too. I hope you are feeling a bit better. I think none of us are as quite as toned as we used to be.

cat you are very strong

comrade think of it as strengthening the immune system :)

Glad you had a lovely day horsey

dondoon the Facebook group is Nov 12 babies (picture of a bump with a flower on it)

Can I put in a request for Merry Monday please?! Wills etc are very important but too depressing to think about for too long! And I couldn't read the drawers story on facebook as I just cannot cope with that sort of thing. I can't decide if that is a normal part of being a parent or if it's going a bit too far with me. I am constantly anxious about something happening to the girls, which I know is normal, but it's all the time. And if I hear an awful story I can't stop thinking about it and I get a bit panicky. I lost my Mum last year so have just learnt that horrible things don't just happen to other people

You just need a solicit it's appointment Fruit. Have an idea about who you want as executors (who oversee the execution of your will which basically mean instructing solicitors), trustees (look after the money until your children are 18/21/25 whichever age you pick) and the guardians you wish to look after your children. You can give then a list of bank accounts, life insurance policies, etc. if you want but this doesn't have to be done as part of the will, you can add that to the solicitor's copy later. If you have any valuables or heirlooms you can either specify who you want them left to in your will or you can add a note in to go with your will as instruction to your executors. It's about £90 for a single will or £135 for mirror wills for a couple. If you want to change your will in the future, e.g. when you win the lottery when your children are adults, it costs £40ish to write a codicil. Easy peasy so don't delay.

Another day missed. And another day ill never catch up on

So instead ill bore u with my day.
Nieces bday yesterday. So late one. Gave LO feed at 12 and he slept till 10am ! The darling must know mummy is working hard ATM n needs rest .
So then lounged around till 1. DH took over n I came bk to bed. Lol. Went to mums for dinner. N bk to bed I come.

Keep thinking with dc2 on the way I must finish dc1 blanket! Must dig it out and start knitting. N only then can I think about nxt project. Which I think will be a crochet blanket for the new fraggle.

Can't believe ill be able to say I have two under 1... And they ain't twins!

My mum : are you OK? (With intent staring)

Me : I'm fine.

My Mum : have you got a headache? (Leanimg towards me and staring intently)

Me : no. I'm fine (agitation in my voice)

My mum : you look like you have a headache (frowning with hands in lap)

Me : I am just tired mum (trying to take her words as caring)

My mum : you don't look well dear.

Me : (perhaps too loudly) I have not slept for 15 (fucking) weeks so I think I am allowed to look a bit tired.

My mum : should you see the doctor?

Me : not unless he can make my baby sleep.

Every fucking time I see her. Drives me potty!

DS slept 2.5 hours. I woke him with my cough I think, then he started coughing.

GT a summary of todays chat :

Sad stories to encourage writing of wills and sorting life assurance.

More sad news items to remind us to secure all furniture to the wall, and give our LOs an extra closer cuddle.

And stories of incontinence.

We plan to be more upbeat monday.

Btw. I still have discomfort and bleeding from epi nearly 7 years on.

Fuck VQ that isn't normal. As in you shouldn't have to put up with that. Have you spoken to your GP about it?

I will not put up with the pain. I'll be the pain. In my GP's arse. See how they like it...!

Fartalot here also. Literally just let rip the most loudest embarrassing fart ever. And I'm lay in bed next to DP who has learned to just ignore the terrible noises. I lost control in that department when pregnant and clearly havent regained it!

I have to go to the GP tomorrow now. They will be sick of the sight of me. But I have to. Just had a split condom on ovulation day. Frickin' great. DP's speciality shredding condoms. MAP here we come. No offence GT but I definitely don't want to be able to say I have 2 under 1!!!!!

How many times are you allowed the MAP in your life? I reckon I've had it about 6/7 times in 12 years now. Is that bad??

Clearly need more reliable contraception. But nothing works well for me. Have the combined pill, took 1st one then forgot for 2 days. As you do when you are so busy with a baby!
