We do have a nice postnatal group don't we- can't believe it's still going quite strong. Think most fizzle out. Maybe we should try to arrange a meet up one day- to make it easier maybe 2- a north and south one but think actually most of us are south? Know spotty and wlmum you guys are close to me.

Hi all, glad to hear of all the nice weekends. Hope H is doing much better Hales.

Hopefully it's a phase Mama. DS is starting to lengthen his nursery naps now he's used to being there.

I went to a spa for my mum's birthday on Saturday, it was amazing!

I'm sad tonight, I filled in my CTC form and started packing for the move. I'll be moving mid June and have to move in with mum and dad as still trying to sort a mortgage on my own. I miss being a family and spending bank holidays doing fun stuff. I miss being happy and carefree and loved. In just so bloody sad. I cannot imagine leaving this house, we were so happy here.

So sorry willyou. It must be pretty shitty. A friend irl is going through a similar thing atm. At least I can visit her and take pastries and flowers - have to send you virtual ones. She knows, as I'm sure you do, that it's short term pain for long term gain but doesn't always make it any easier.
I was talking to a friend last night about how one of the reasons I need to get back into proper work is to ensure that I would be ok financially if something ever did happen.

On another note - anyone remember the massive spider DH let loose in the car? He made an appearance tonight!! And DH failed to catch him so he is still at large in the feckin car. Shudder.
ddas def let's try again for a meet up.

MaMaPo · 06/05/2014 03:49

Willyou, that sounds unimaginably tough.

Ddas, I'd love a meetup! Sadly, I'm quite far south :(

Thanks for nursery nap tips! She has a sleeping bag and lovey, she gets put down in a cot etc but no dice. She started there in Jan and napped for a while, but stopped about 3-4 weeks ago. Occasionally she will nap there but it's less and less frequent. She just has a severe case of FOMO - fear of missing out. She hates to think anyone is awake without her. Pesky baby!

Barbeasty · 06/05/2014 06:07

WillYou I know it's tough on weekends like this, but don't forget why you're doing this. And make the most of your parents while you're staying with them.

Hales glade H is being sorted.

DD had a brown inhaler for a bit when she was about 18 months. Went with the spacer but was a pain to give her!

MamaPo do they put them all down for a nap together? At the DC's nursery they have to lie down for quiet time even if they don't sleep- so most do drop off.

Ddas funnily enough I looked back at DD's postnatal thread this weekend. The last posts were around when A was born, and there have only been a few hundred posts since it started in 2011. I think it fizzled out when they turned 2.

We put the DC to bed last night and a short while later there was a huge commotion and screaming. DH and I both thought that DD had been helping A to climb from his cot or something. But actually she was on her potty and a big spider crawled across the floor in front of her. She'd jumped into bed! Both needed calming down!

WLmum · 06/05/2014 14:28

Poor dd beasty. Oh no, that's just reminded me that I've to get in the car to collect dd1 shortly - the spider infested car!

WLmum · 06/05/2014 21:24

T had a silly short nap this morning so ended up with a lateish one too and then wouldn't go to bed. After over an hours battle she was sick - don't think I'll, think just crying and snot (most of the time I was trying to settle her she was crawling about lively as anything). So she's been down having stories and now we're trying again. She bloody better sleep through after all these shenanigans!

Looks rather like I'm talking to myself!

WillYouDoTheFandango · 06/05/2014 23:04

I'm here WL. Hope she's still asleep for you.

My poor timeshare baby is at XP's tonight. I miss him (DS not so much the other one today). I got my mortgage in principle today and have put in an offer on a house. Hoping it all goes through okay. Bit scary

halestone · 06/05/2014 23:44

Willyou i hope your ok.

I'm sorry i'm struggling to keep up at the moment due to lack of sleep and work. I hope our group doesn't fizzle out. It feels like your all a group of friends now.
