Bigger wings with sparkly bits

I can't beat cuntworms it just makes me want a glowworm again but they die when they mate...

vq you would be a fucking amazing hv!

fatima hope tonight is better than you think it will be.

pass I struggle with it too. Well I did when he was eating. Still, he is drinking bottles so will not starve. I am now wobbling over the df. Surely if I am worried he won't eat solids I shouldn't be taking milk away too? Tonight we are down to 4oz 3 scoops. Means I'll have only offered 35/36oz today depending on how you look at it. He is capable of over 40oz when he doesn't take solids, so I feel quite awful and am struggling with it all. Having said that the slight bit of logic I cling to tells me he will not sleep through if he isn't getting enough.

Have a major fucking headache

You do have awful luck with cars mm :( you are well overdue some good luck in the car department!

Look it how long I managed to fuck off for

Thanks vq, I need a huge slap and some magic to fix the boy I've broken

Cuntworms sound most unpleasant! I may have to use it as an insult in the future

pikz I read 'bigger wings with sparkly tits'

Cuntworms is used (sometimes) on MN to describe children which I think is just horrid.

I thought she already had sparkly tits

Vajazzle anyone?

Night night my lovely interweb friends x and no I am not pissed. Just warming up for thankful Thursday

And on that note off to bed... Night night

I throw down the gauntlet!

Arsegobbler!

Evil I love the way you sign off your posts with Evil (apart from the last 2 but I'll let you off!). Makes me smile everytime I read your posts. And I also wonder why you've called yourself Evil when you are anything but! (I'm not a crazy post stalker honest!!).

E's tube came out whilst at the in-laws this evening so I did it myself with DH's help. Was very painless and E didn't even cry whereas at the hospital she screams hysterically. So am very pleased with that. I'm sure it won't be like that everytime but it's given me confidence in that it won't be that bad an experience for her or us. I think it helped that DH was holding her and talking to her rather than a stranger pinning her down.

hello everyone :)

I worked a whole week last week and then 3 days this week, and i don't seem to have had time for anything else! I haven't even read the thread let alone posted. I've missed pretty much a whole thread. I just scrolled back up a bit to see the last few posts and it seems I'm posting in the middle of a chat about nipple tassels and cuntworms - I'm not sure I have anything to offer on that topic

Hope you are all doing ok - apologies for not keeping up.

First wake up, that's a 5 hour stint . Good boy.

How're you doing?

Good work chasing. I agree with others lo slept better in his own room. Hope he settles quickly and for another long stint.

Just checked on lo and his temp, well from touching his forehead has gone down

I never said. I didn't realise my neighbours and his wife had twins! I saw him with her last week at weigh in clinic. Hmm I assume its his wife? And his kids? I've never actually seen her! Only in London can you live next door to someone and not be able to pick them out of a line up

Looks like there won't be much sleep here tonight. J has been crying and crying. Does that mean the sharp fang I can feel in his gum is coming through at last? I wouldn't mind so much but DS1 and DS2 have been awful today and both had to be grounded so I feel like the three of them are ganging up on me while DH is away.

How come Ted can sleep for 10 hours straight in an unfamiliar rustly hard-mattressed travel cot in a freezing cold unfamiliar noisy caravan, but not here in his lovely warm comfy own bed?!

Would love to know why S thinks its playtime. She'd been rolling round her cot, banging her dummy off the bars and chattering away since 2am. She's asleep again now while I'm wide awake.

And again...

Stunt - big hugs. Hate it when that happens,

Dixie -- just a thought, any way he could be too warm? Othtwise maybe all the fresh air helped?

Well done o. Good sleeping.

Eliza - when r was a baby and needed regular blood sugars testing I felt much better when I could do them myself. She still hated it, but I knew I was being really careful every single time and I'm sure she cried less. I am sure she will get used to you going her tube - and I very much hope she won't need it too much longer.

Gt - you should say hi! Even in
London...

We had a massive, massive win this evening. R scooted along on a ride on toy all by herself for the first time ever. Dh and I were beside ourselves. She has tried before but never managed it.

G has been a pickle all evening - but inspired by all the own room chat I left him by himself. 6hrs - double his usual. He really needed that - have been worried he isn't getting enough sleep. Hope it isn't a one off.

The ride on toy thing sounds silly - but it has been so hard seeing her not manage it for so long. It feels like her physical strength and confidence are really starting to build - and most importantly she was so happy.

Lovely too see you kirrin - don't worry about having to read it all - just tell us how you are doing from time to time. I think working and having a baby is really hard and have a lot of respect for those of you managing it. Hope you are enjoying it though at least a bit? Working a whole wek must be really hard though.

I hate being awake for no reason. Why can't I sleep?

Chasing hope o slept well. Hoping lack of posts indicated this.

I'm hungry :(

Lo has taken to sleeping on his side. Looks so cute as he is all scrunched up in a ball.

Forgot to mention I'm hungry. Glad in onto the stage where I can eat a decent meal n ms is largely over. However not enjoying the hungry periods in between which seem to be constant.

A bit at being 24weeks. Keep forgetting I'm quite far along, and the size of my bump keeps surprising me.

O kept whinging every time I put him back in his cot, think he is just uncomfy through laxk of poo. But I jumped at the chance to bring him in bed with me where he slept 12.45 - 5.30 and has now gone back off after a feed. He is sleeping with his arms around my neck
