Don't forget to give us a brief update on your baby: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/postnatal_clubs/1733466-November-2012-Please-come-back-and-give-us-an-update-on-your-November-baby

Oh already done. That was fast of MNHQ :o

Olivia MNHQ must be on duty. She's fast :o

Jeez that was quick! Nope I am not, I didn't mind others reading it but I'd used RL names etc so didn't want to expose any of us in a public domain!

And nope, I am not part of MN. I can barely work the forum let alone manage it

No offense to Other MNHQ Of course

I read it and will be outing Rebecca as soon as I can :o

Glad it went well wanna fingers crossed you get it.

9 miles is great going YW I've abandoned my pedometer for now as it just depresses me And the other day the battery ran low and the alarm to tell me that was so loud I thought it was my car alarm! In the middle of the High Street. And the only way to silence it was to take the battery out. Which needed a tiny screwdriver. Luckily I was with a friend who wears glasses. It would have been embarrassing if I was that way inclined :)

Glad the tax shit is sorted pidj What a relief.

I've nominated DP for the night shift tonight, so after a nice hot bath I am off to bed. Hopefully DD1 won't choose tonight to wake a million times like she did last time I had a night off!

Its been one of those days

Yaaaay pidj

Cannot remember what else, really can't :(

I'll be around tomorrow, for sweary fucking Wednesday need a good fucking swearing session

I have no reason to swear. Tomorrow is a bank holiday here so DH will be at home. Any swearing tomorrow will be right at him. Or the kids if he has been looking after them while I nap.

Ha! Fat fucking chance.

But all the same finding it hard to believe a sweary Wednesday baby related could happen after a lovely day like today. So permission, quiche, to swear on politics tomorrow? Or other stuff?

If there is PM questions tomorrow I'll swear after the crap they have been putting in place during their holidays.

My baby has an inbuilt mummy sleep detector. Literally 2 minutes after my head hits the pillow he's up. Good thing he's so cute.

PR, surely swearing is open to all subjects. Go ahead.

Oh and I oly ever use reusable swim nappies, yes they work like disposables, only catching poos. I've oft been weed on, on the way into the pool. I don't know if anyone else has ever noticed the large wet patch on my cossie before I've even got near the water. I give a good no-wee poker face. Across two kids, only ever had one poo incident, and it was before we got in the pool, so haven't fully tested their poo-catching abilities. I guess you just need yo make sure they're on tightly...

I have completed all the free levels on Candy Crush. Twice. What can I do next?!

They are all free Dixie!

If you need more lives, when it asks you to request them off friends, click the x to close. Keep pressing on the level you are playing, and pressing the x until a pop up comes up to watch an ad. You get a free life. And the ads barely work! The most I have had to click the x is 4 times. Usually it is 1 or 2 .

If you want free lives you can set your click forward a day, open app, close it, put clock back then open app and play
I don't know about free tickets though, I had to request them on fb

Despite being out of action all day I've still not caught up.
Got a wheelie desk chair from next door! Has made last two trips to loo alot easier. Also my posture is better sat on it. But will it b as good when I go home n try rolling on carpet

DM spoke to DH. Had a lil word about my emotional state. N how it was important that I am happy n comfortable. As my state of mind would effect my recovery. Well done mum.

Feeling lazy. So going to gaze into thin air for a bit

Mine works for pc, fatimas for phone app!

GT I broke my back a few years ago and the wheelie office chair was all I could cope with once recovered.

sweary weds??

fucking lost my post earlier!

good news pidj!

so sorry to hear you're suffering GT - even harder with a lo, hope you get better soon.

tits glad docs doing full screen and hope you get answers. keep up with extra vitamins though as I do find, after being hypothyroid since the age of 21, they do help. iodine such foods too - dairy, fish, eggs (and randomly strawberries!)

sorry some are still struggling with sleep. really hope it improves soon.

bplp lol

been awol few days - lots going on. mainly that lo definitely has reflux issues as sleeping on a pillow has been a revelation. he actually just slept nearly 4 hours. plus chatted to friend whos lo is on ranitadine - they accidently missed a few doses and she described exactly the nights I've been having with g, specifically the writhing etc. bloody doc was supposed to be showing last 2 days but never did so I'm just going to ask for repeat omezeprole prescription in the morning. feeding has gone down hill again too, gavisgon has helped a little but really hard when they're ebf.

someone said mums of reflux babies seem hypochondriac/ munchhausens - I completely feel like that. for so long I've put the writhing down to wind - due to air swallowing from tt and then the antibiotics. but - on a pillow he cranks them out no probs. all the lifting of legs at night and twitching, comfort sucking, writhing and always waking up in tears (always) has been reflux. last 3 days has woken up and given me a smile however, pillow sleeping not great.

small accident in cafe today. aforementioned friend went ti sit in bench we were on. g was lying next to me on it as he gets fractious sometimes being held. she sort if sat on his head, well top bit. cue hysteria. he was ok after going outside (he'd already been crying from it being too hot so didn't take much) and has seemed ok since apart from rather grizzly from crying plus hungry but fussy but that's fairly normal at mo but I keep worrying. she was soooo upset I kept reassuring her he was ok but when I got home I did get a bit worried. I suppose it's the first time something has happened to him.

then the little monkey went to sleep in cot (on pillow) practising his m sounds whilst we made loads of noise as dh knocked my tea all down side of bed. I usually rock him or feed to sleep so that worried me too! and he's just slept 4 hours! ffs! this mothering malarky! I'm not used to a baby being normal!! am I being over worried?! (aibow)

What the fucking fuck? J is up for the third feed of the night. DS2 is just back in his own bed after a bolloxy nightmare. DH is in Switzerland and I have to clean my entire wankbadgerly house tomorrow for a bloody viewing. Srsly go da fuq to sleep a-holes.

Apologies for incomprehensible sweary post peeps.

Sorry to people having bad nights but, woohoo, first waking now since 11! That's 6 hours! And he wasn't even crying, just snuffling and trying desperately to suck some milk out of his hands! own room beckons, then even that wouldn't disturb me... That's the longest stretch if sleep I've had since, erm, about 16 weeks preggers..?! Now, can we sneak in another hour I wonder?

On Candy Crush it's not lives as such but getting beyond level 35 or whatever, where you have to request something on FB...can't be doing with that. Will see if yr suggestions work though, ta.

That's the point I deleted Candy Crush Dixie, I didn't want to get sucked in to harassing my friends on FB with constant Candy Crush updates and requests for tickets.

Fourth waking here. This time with added screaming, back arching and leg kicking. He's now restlessly asleep on my pillow. I have had approximately the square root of fuck all sleep tonight.

Haven't slept a wink. Why can't I sleep when I have the opportunity to sleep? Happy sweary Wednesday everyone.

Going to attempt to go home today scary. Noone at mums to look after me after today so will be the best move.
Don't worry folks. Pil still in India! So that's not an issue.
Also thinking I will have to do stairs to get on bed. Will b easier once I have a bed. I can just turn. No trying to shuffle my pelvis in one spot if that makes sense. Thinking going up back wards on my bum is best? All fours won't work as ill have to separate my knees. Also thinking about tying a large band around my knees...
Currently sat on wheelie chair n can't be bothered to get on sofa to lay down.

Reflux seems to be very common. N the information made available to parents seems to be very SHIT. Lol. Maybe there should be a MN campaign to enlighten GPs n HV? Also the crying is normal in babies myth can be dispelled? Babies cry for a reason!

PR I have same problem. Even when I am in good health.

Really need to do my fucking nails. But can't be fucking bothered to get nail file.

I want a cuddle with LO poor thing is going to forget I'm his mum. This is a serious worry n I know if I tell FUCKING H he will laugh at me. Well you know what. Now I have crutches. So I can hit him if he has the guts to laugh at me.

I heartpasties was part of our quich right? She's on another thread asking about baby names. Wonder if she too is PG. or just bored?

Fucking bastarding cunting 6 month sleep regression. Fuck fuck bugger arse and shit. Back to work a week on Monday. This had better end soon.

GT H won't forget you are his mummy.
