Turns out mrj has an awesome duster with a handle so cleaning was actually fun and DD was enjoying being home for once!

Feel ok now. Hoping she'll go down soon then I will follow!!! Hope everyone's days got better. Thanks Thanks

Evening viroids!

Eek Zyla - congrats on imminent mummyhood!

Hope everyone's days got better and no one was ebayed... Grin

DH is back at work tomorrow... I am shitting myself!!

willywallace · 26/01/2015 18:51

God Popz that's terrifying! Hope you have lots of chocolate in to see you through.

Eek Zyla, how exciting.

Think I'm going to have to crack out the infacol, this little monster is so windy.

Minion · 26/01/2015 20:13

Ooh zyla! We'll be seeing you soon!
I was like that popz, feel for you x

Well R is being our angelcare guinea pig tonight. We're trying to put her down in her moses, in her room and then transfer the whole thing when we go up. I hope this works.

I cannot do another night like the last.

I've nothing but admiration for single parents And parents whose partners work shifts. It's a lot to ask of one person.

Nessalina · 26/01/2015 20:16

Alreet viroids Smile
Sounds like everyone is in the dark place Confused It's not this bad all the time Zyla!!
James has had a good couple of days actually, but I've had a cold & sore throat so it's been a bit tough. I really need a day in bed, but that ain't happening!!

willywallace · 27/01/2015 01:53

Me too Min, I'd be useless by myself.

Ah Ness the joys of child free sick days are no more I'm afraid. Hope you are less snotty soon.

cookielove · 27/01/2015 09:29

I was thinking that too, about how single parents survive these nights. Not that dh is terribly helpful but if I really need him he'll help!

There is no way I could do this solo! Shock I'm already very jammy coz DH only works part time. We're poor but happy!!

RPopz · 27/01/2015 12:58

We're up and dressed! Shock It's a miracle!

JuniDD · 27/01/2015 13:52

Skills popz.

Currently sitting in my bra on the sofa with a sleeping dd on me. Don't ask!

willywallace · 27/01/2015 14:14

We went out this morning! Just me and the littlest one. And only because I have two other adults helping. But still, it's a start. Knackered now though.

Minion · 27/01/2015 14:34

Nice one girls! Feels good to know something so scary can be done!
Well, I think we have our sleeping girl back!
Thank fook.
She now happily sends herself off to sleep in the Moses, so it's box set time for minion!

RPopz · 27/01/2015 15:24

Well done Wil! Where did you go?

Apparently getting dressed was the real high point of the day... DS hasn't left my boob for more than 15 minutes at a time without screaming since we got up... The poor dog is climbing the walls! 5 hours til DH gets home!

Nessalina · 27/01/2015 18:55

Good day all round then! I planned birthday stuff for next weekend - my darling parents are travelling over from Liverpool to babysit see me and I'm going out for a curry with DH!! Grin

Nessalina · 27/01/2015 18:56

Lol, sorry Popz, I didn't see your day has gone downhill Confused Hope you got some peace??

RPopz · 27/01/2015 19:23

Whacked him in the sling and got an hours peace... and the dog got a little walk haha.

Mmm curry!

willywallace · 27/01/2015 19:30

Good times Ness. My breast pump arrived today so hopefully I can get out for a child free hour at some point in a couple of weeks.

Just went to bf group Popz. The only place I can go as haven't remembered how to feed without getting my whole tit out yet Grin .

Minion · 28/01/2015 06:29

Made the mistake of not swaddling last night. I'll not do that again!
Blimey this girl can shift!

I'm off out with the slung today popz, what an invention eh!

FurryScoob · 28/01/2015 09:14

I got 5 hours sleep all in 1 go with DD co sleeping! Grin Also had a massive row with DP Sad

Where do you all find these groups to go to? I've tried googling in my local area but nothing comes up. All the local sure start centres are shutting down.

JuniDD · 28/01/2015 09:46

Aw sorry about the row furry, hope things are ok now or will be soon.

I joined a few FB groups in my area "bristol parenting" and people advertise loads on them. Or look at the schedules for community centres etc. It's quite nappy valley here with loads of play cafes etc.

Horrible day here and gotta go down the motorway to a sling library. Wish us luck. DD has decided to feed and sleep like a newborn so a bit at a loss right now as this is the longest she's napped for weeks!!

willywallace · 28/01/2015 10:09

Three month growth spurt Juni?

Hope all ok with MrScoob. Netmums local pages advertise a lot of classes. HV should know of some if you ask them and fb parenting sites quite good as well. It depends what type of thing you're looking for. If you want a baby class try googling Baby Sensory, Jo Jingles, Waterbabies, Hartbeeps, Laisy Daisy, Baby Massage etc and see if they have anything in your area. But a more general Mother and Baby group will probably be easier to find through local word of mouth.

I should get up for midwife coming but really want to nap.

willywallace · 28/01/2015 11:04

Also check the libraries - they usually run sessions.

Nessalina · 28/01/2015 12:05

I have mastitis Confused Feel like death warmed up. Left boob is killing me!!

willywallace · 28/01/2015 12:56

Oh no Ness Shock . Have you been to the doctor?
