Argh. Having a shit sry for myself evening
Ready to give up bf. my boob hurts n I'm tiered. Been feeding all evening n don't see how there is any milk left to drink.

FH has a few days off now. Really hope it gets me through this 6week thing. I have no idea how many weeks A is my brain won't work it out. But feel like I'm well over 6weeks.

Can't even remember what my nxt goal was.

I'm just eating my dinner now. A crappy sandwich. I'm saving the rest of the choc fingers box to have with my milk before bed.

I don't think I could hide behind a nc. It would be obvious with me typing n and u. I do go back n re type and and you. But always miss them.

How did I become a teacher?!

I was just wondering the same thing GT

Who am I?

So fucking tired I can barely remember.

J has had a mixed day. No vomiting until after his nap, then he has done nothing but vom. DH comes home and I go to sort bottles and washing, and follow a shit trail from the kitchen to the lounge and a little boy up to the ears in the stuff sitting by his daddy.

He didn't notice. He didn't notice when he vommed either. I heard him from the utility. Again he was sat by DH. The man is a twat.

Anyhoo, night night all

Thanks for the link Pidj, I've just ordered a Santa letter from the Stroke Association for DP's nephew.

GT you are doing brilliantly. I remember being at my parents at Christmas so LO must have only been 5/6 weeks old, and for several evenings all I did was have her attached to me feeding. My mum questioned the fact of how hungry she was, but I just had to trust in what she was doing and that I could sit and do it. It was hard as looking back I wasn't at all prepared for the realities of bf, but now I'm so glad that I stuck with it as it was the right thing for me to do. Only you know the right thing for you.

So much to say as usual, am nackered from party preparations

A massive happy birthday to quichesters and quichelettes as I know there's been a few

Need sleep now As up at 5:30 to sort food bits out

Love to all

This nc game sounds silly. Count me out.

For fuck sake stop name changing!!!

Bloody insomnia and I'm baby free. Typical.

Happy birthday to all the birthday peeps.

Who's up today?

Great time yesterday. Knackered today, we have brought both boys in bed with us! Family snuggle. We never do that.

A tinsy wincey hang over after burning midnight oil with SIL. But nothing paracetamol and eggs and bacon won't cure!

Up since 6. Not too bad. Still exhausted as up to DD2 in night.

GT R was 5 weeks 3 days the day dp had his stroke. I did the 6 week growth spurt while staying at MILs not knowing if he'd ever come out. I had 3 days worth of clothes, lumpy ancient pillows on the bed, a thin rustly duvet, no curtains on the window, she'd barely moved in so the heating wasn't on enough especially at night, no travel cot so no way to put him down and dn visiting regularly - she has autism so is upset by crying and was going through a destructive phase so i spent hours literally locked in that room feeding.

You can do this.

Morning! On my own with the girls today as DH working til late. Sodding project should be over in a few weeks. It is pissing it down too.

Morning. Feeling sorry for myself this morning. Stoopid Christmas adverts and their sad songs. Need to snap out of it. Hairdressers in a couple of hours which should help.

Oh fuck. Got the wrong date for my sister's baby's birthday. I would have bet my house it was 10/11. It wasn't it was 9/11. Oh buggery bugger. What an arse.

Argh bad night. FH and drinking related. No hospital visit. But I'm drained sad, angry and confused.

Thanks penny, night try a morning snack.

Sry Pp, I know I've had it quite easy at times with the amount of help I've had.

Chasing hope you enjoy getting your hair cut and the post cut hair toss is great. Lol

GT it's hard with one baby it must be v tricky with two no matter how much help you have. Just stick to what is right for you and feel proud at how far you've come and if you want to go further - do. We're all here for you either way. Poor Pidj was an extreme case and I can't imagine it the 6 week spurt was the closest I came to quitting and I'm glad for our personal situation that I persevered but it's not a competition and just figure what's best for you.

Sorry to hear about FH

chasing hairdresser envy

I too can not watch JL ads the music makes my heart break for missing the DDs. Have not seen it yet.

I absolutely hate the faux nostalgic soppy Christmas adverts that seem to be fashionable atm. Make them funny, or celebratory, but stop trying to make customers cry. It's all marketing bollocks and should be ignored.

GT it's when you say things like that I am glad you have a house to go to if it all gets too much.

I quite liked last year's Boots ads. Not the pissed xmas parties it was one that was realistic and inclusive.
