I am okay. Just back from neighbour's party. They aren't as wankery as I first thought she is a total golddigger who cant handle her drink . It was a good distraction. He is back. Crawling, tail between legs, etc. I am sooo pissed off but too broken to fight him just now. So I am playing it cool and he is sleeping in my office for the forseeable. He knows I am angry and spent all evening avoiding me/glowering at me when I spoke to anyone male. Prick.

YW I am keeping everything crossed for you!! Must catch up next week xxx

Apple big hugs, I hope C makes a speedy recovery.

Chasing I am super proud of your flatpack skillz!

Awww Mm you've got yer head screwed on, you'll be fine with or without your fella.
So yes hope everyone is Ok
Guess a lot of mummies have gone back to work now :(
Hope they all coping with the juggling, I've been there, you get on and used to it but its still a huge pull
Big waves to everyone

Argh. My antenatal thread has got faster moving then this one! I can't cope with two chatty threads SPD and a 10month old! Lol

Found out the cottage now has wifi, woop woop although I will not sit on my phone mumsnetting every night, no siree Me and DH have actually been having conversations and I'd like that to continue!

Won't waffle on but having a great time and both girls behaving very well, so far but we all know how quickly that can change so not counting my chickens.

Just briefly:

mm sorry to hear you are in the same position as you were a couple of weeks a go. He seems to have a very poor memory. I hope you do not. Glad to hear you're ok though.

chasing congrats on the house keys.

I echo others sentiments, I miss pr and pass. Hope that it's just cos your busy working/having fun pass and that there's no underlying reason why you're not posting.

yw goodness how exciting. Will have to keep checking in for poas news now. Glad you had a lovely hol.

sophia to say I love your kitchen is an understatement. It's absolutely amazing. Am v

waves to other quichettes I have failed to mention. Offski to bed. Much sleepy dust to all.

GT I've not bothered joining an antenatal Fred this time, I would neveeerrrr have kept up!

In case anyone's wondering why I'm up , it's not because of baby inside nor outside, it's because I've just collected 16 year old DS from the train station, he has been Alton towers today and missed last bus, so my ladies you have all this to look forward to! :)

(Blood shot sleepy eyes emoticon)
Lo is having milk. Growth spurt?
Rocking wouldn't get him back to sleep. At this time of night crying is to much so I gave in quickly.

He looks very awake tho. Pls pls pls go back to sleep. Can't even co sleep incase I fall asleep and he crawled out of bed

Went to bed at 1.30am after a nightmare trying to get organised for our holiday today. DS woke screaming at 1.33am, inconsolable, back arching, angry mess. I told DH to sleep as he will drive us to airport and to collect my aunt who were going with. Came downstairs for more of the same from J. Have calpol and he eventually KOd. He's now asleep on the couch and DH is up moving about for that read fanning about. I need to shower and wash my hair and panic about all things I've forgotten to pack.

Add to that I got my first period since jan/feb 2012 on thurs and the fact I can't use tampons cos of my wrecked pelvic floor AND the fact I'm loaded with a horrific cold and hayfever I am one grumpy izzy!!!!

BUT....at 7amish I will be on a FUCKING PLANE TO SPAIN!!!!!!!!!!

GT J has just had a bottle. A full 9 oz on the space of an hour. He is eating like a sparrow though and full of snot, and SO near crawling.

DH is driving 400 miles or so today to get MIL who is coming to stay for a week so her kitchen can be replaced. We cannot afford the petrol so I hope she will help out. I could really do without this as J starts full time in nursery but has not been well enough for the intro visits.

YW I would love to meet for a and a blether but not sure how I would achieve it at the moment and need to prioritise getting J settled. Do you have a Poundland near? Buy their cheepies and you could pee on a stick every day if you want. They are just as good as anything else.

I hope you have a great time Izzy x don't forget the formula, bottles etc, pouches, meds including calpol, nappies, passports and children

Oh no izz n VQ. Lo managed 7oz. But was a cute cuddly sleepy boy after. So I decided to enjoy the cuddles. I put him in his cot awake and he hasn't complained yet. Hopefully he falls asleep soon.
He was a fussy eater today at breakfast n lunch. Been grumpy all day. But had an extra bottle at 4. Then ate all his dinner. N seemed happier until he saw my sis eating a cup cake then it was tantrum city. Took ages to get him to sleep.
Maybe he was hungry all day but didn't like the food I gave?

Hopefully no posting until morning now.

Ok DH did get up after alarm went off, he went to loo, then went back to fucking sleep!! If I'd somehow Fallen asleep down here we'd be screwed as my phone and alarm was upstairs!!! Twat!

Hope you get some sleep vq and gt.

I will hopefully remembered all I neeD!

Quick check in here as J has just had a feed and gone back to sleep. We actually had a good day today - went to see DH's friends six day old baby and I wasn't broody at all. They slept until 9:30 a.m. with their newborn grrrrr! Anyway J accidentally got baby food with egg in so we have been watching him like a hawk (plus dosed him with antihistamines and extra gaviscon). He seems fine so far so hopefully he didn't get too much before I realised and stopped DH feeding him. He reacts so strongly when I eat egg that I was expecting a bad night but FC so far so good.

Morning all. Hope you are boarding now izzy

yw hurry up off to POAS with you, can't stand the suspense!

mm more hugs, hope you are ok. As the others say I think you will be, whatever happens but you know where we are for the moments when you don't feel it.

stunt glad you had a better day hope the egg doesn't take a hold!

I gave up on boxes yesterday and had a kitchen pottering afternoon, after we had been to Tesco and done a massive stock up of basic stuff. I have never spent so much in Tesco in my life.

I made Chana Masala, cardamon chicken kebabs and my own nan bread. Which were dead easy and much lighter and nicer than the ones you get in the supermarket. I also made a vat of bolognaise sauce for the boys, which they loved

Oliver's second top tooth is coming through and he is prone to grouchy moments. He is trying to stand up and falling over a lot, I following him around with cushions to out behind him! His eating is brill though, he eats anything. He had the bolognaise yesterday and I couldn't be faffed to do two different pastas so he had Penne like DS1 I just chopped it up small, he ate the lot. as well as half DHs cinnamon roll yesterday morning

Today I must weigh myself. I haven't been too bad in the snacking department, but we have had a couple of takeouts over the move in process and although no wine at all the first week we have had a bit every ginger this week. DH starts work tomorrow so we have to develop our routine now.

*night

Morning,

I need breakfast ideas. O refuses weetabix, toast, banana. She eats a yoghurt. Not sure what I can offer which is quick and easy.

sophia so jealous of your kitchen. Mine is shameful but it will have a dishwasher in hopefully next week.

izzy have a great holiday.

I miss pr too though she beats me most of the time on wwf so I know she is alive.

Yoghurt and fruit lily or porridge?

Popping in to say good morning.

I managed to get C to take some fluids last night and the ibuprofen and paracetamol combined brought his temperature down to where it should be. But once it wears off his temperature shoots up again, he refuses fluids and we are back to square one again. No fluids taken this morning so far. He seems to be in a lot of discomfort and cries a lot which is so unlike him. DP is at work today and I have to go in tomorrow and Tuesday. The only two days all month where I absolutely have to be in. Why oh why did it have to be this week?

yw POAS damnit! We want another quiche baby! Good luck.

apple poor C, I hope he gets better soon!

Enjoy the bubbly tonight chasing I bet you didn't think when you moved into your dads that you'd be celebrating your new life with a cute non date guy did you? See how things have changed so much in such a short space of time, things just keep getting better and better for you

That wedding sounds ace yw gonna make myself sound a bit thick here nothing new but what's a 'wegy'? Oh and POAS!!!

pig F must be eating S's share, all S done yesterday was have a little sniff and a nibble and throw everything I gave her on the floor, apart from the cheese, that girl luffs cheese, just like mummy she made up for it with 2 extra bottles though, I'm blaming teeth. But glad you survived the bus journey.

Did you enjoy your leaving drinks pennie

gt leave the antenatal thread and just talk to us haha!

izzy enjoy your holiday, I'm not jealous one bit, oh no!

How is J this morning vq ?

We had our first good night in over a fortnight - wahoo - 8.30 til 7.40 with a couple of settles by DH early evening. Well chuffed. It's gotten cold here so put him in a sleepsuit in his bag last night for the first time in months and he looks so cute!

He's currently emptying my handbag after commando crawling / rolling and bum shuffling across the lounge. His language has come on so much after the holiday after having 15 rellies constantly chatting to him. maybe I don't talk to him enough at home? Everyone is getting 'hiya' and big waves and Daddy and Nana get their names too. Well jel? moi?

Will POAS this pm and update. I really doubt I am as it doesn't feel like last time and have rationalised the absence of my period as due to regular night feeds during this regression. It returned in July because we'd had a month of v good sleep.... Hurry up DH I want to go to Boots!

MM you'll find the strength for M. You will. It's happening every couple of weeks now and Tilly is hearing him hurt you. You can't let it go on just for fear of what people will think if you leave. Fuck em! If this was happening to Tilly in the future you'd be begging her to leave. (Like your Mum at the mo' you'd be tortured and helpless). The longer you stay the greater the chance it will happen to her as she may find that abusive relationships have been normalised for her . Sending lots of love but I am intent on being an irritating bitch who won't let you try to ignore it all and let yourself be treated like shit. YOU DESERVE BETTER

I'm not feeling the freshest this morning, we went to a party last night. S has decided to take extra interest in her xylophone today

Ouch fruit that sounds tough after a party! A 'wegy is a Glaswegian

Oh haha! It makes sense now

J is ok thank you just very snotty but full of beans. His favourite toy is the changing box. He keeps trying to unlock it. The girls also loved it. He slept until 8.30, but the girls were up at 6 as usual. Still, having just the girls to deal with is a piece of piss I fell asleep again

DH arrived at his mums house at 8am. She never gets up before 10, and Sunday is the one day SIL does not have to be at work at the crack of dawn. I must admit I found that very pleasing

Apple J had a dreadfully high temp a few days ago, just a scratch under 40 so I really empathise. It passed really quite quickly so I hope it does for C too.

MM I agree totally with YW. I think if this were happening to someone else in the quiche you would be really quite horrified. Lobster, fancy wine and petal trails leading to a bath are not what make a good man.

Have a fab holiday izzy

How was your night out pennie ?

I was going to ask that fruit !!

We went to the beach yesterday and today DD1 slept 7.30 and N til 8.15! I'm going to go to the beach everyday
