Evening ladies
Kayzed ? sorry to hear about the rotten time you?ve been having, hope both of the wee ones are on the road to recovery very soon. xx
Usand ? yes I?m definitely broody atm too! If I am going to have another one I can?t hang about given my age so not using contraception (apart from sharing a room with a 5 month old?) but since it may well not happen it doesn?t really feel like I?m committing myself to anything - if that makes sense!
Am now on my 3rd AF, had them at 16, 20 and 23.5 weeks. And yes, so far they have been easier than previously, practically no cramps or pmt. First one was easiest of all so I guess they will go back to normal at some point.
Sleep ? yes we?ll probably be doing the same on NYE ? rock ?n? roll indeed lol. I?m taking comfort from the fact that as we will not be leaving the four walls we won?t have to take out a mortgage to afford the cab fare home nor dodge the piles of sick on the pavements.
Well Christmas was okay, visited the PILs which was fine, felt sad when we left as I know my MIL would love to see her only grandchild more often but it?s about 4 hours away so not that practical. Also racked with guilt about my mother in Oz ? but there?s no way we can keep everyone happy And having them round the corner might just present a whole new set of problems?!
Emma actually swallowed some baby rice this evening, hurrah. After a few failed attempts at strained carrot and baby rice with milk I tried baby rice with apple juice (from stewed apples) and she ate a bit of it, hurrah. Was relieved as she starts nursery next week and still having no luck getting her to drink formula.
I saw a baby the other day who didn?t look much older than Emma scoffing away at something he was holding in his hand. Ooh I thought, wonder what he?s eating, and was overcome with disapproval when I realised it was a chocolate bar! I?m obviously turning into middle class mummy like the ones on the Catherine Tate show!
