Hi Girls - sorry not been on for a while, it?s been quite a full on week (went back to work) and my brain has been a bit scrambled! HC ? thanks for new thread, Sophie?s not the only non-roller, Emma?s STILL showing no signs, though she does do quite a cute thing where she arches her back and throws herself sideways like a crab!
Happy birthday kbaby , hope the day picks up for you and you manage to get in a birthday drink somewhere along the line! You are good staying on diet coke all night.
Ceebee I have that same dream about the exams on a very regular basis ? have done for about the last 10 years if not more. Must be anxiety based, almost certainly work related ? boo! Hope work?s going okay for you, have been reading your thread but not been organised enough to post yet!
Kayzed ? Roshi is so sweet, bless her with her toast! Hope you get an answer to the tongue-tie question soon.
Welcome back bumpybel ? I don?t think we crossed over much before as I only started posting at the beginning of July but know you were there lots before by reading back a bit.
Us ? Thanks for the reassurances about the nursery, I think you are right about it being worse for the parents at this age, she seems quite happy when being dropped off or picked up.
Re being in labour at the same time, yes it would have been very comforting if we?d known. Imagine if we?d been able to chat then ? the conversation would probably have gone something like
F@F - ?ooooooowwwwwww?
Us - ?aaaaaaarrrrgghhhh?
F@F - ?bloooooddddyy helllllll ? ? internal stitches? ffs ??? ?
I?ve uploaded some pics of Emma ? will try and do the link in a min.
Weighed her on Friday, she?s 12lbs 7oz at 24 weeks, so although she has put on a bit she?s in the bottom pink percentile, whatever that number is. Still seems chirpy enough though so am trying not to worry too much about it.
Well back to work this week, I haven?t been so tired since I gave birth I don?t think and I?ve only done a day and a half Still being woken up two or three times a night which doesn?t help obviously. Very emotionally draining (and quite a shock to the system) the whole experience. At least I can go and feed her at lunchtimes at the nursery (it?s about 10 mins drive from work) which takes the pressure off the EBM a bit and means I can see her, but does make the day even busier. Bit too early to say how it will go in terms of being able to cope, but I certainly hope it gets better or I?ll be a right mess.
Weaning?s going slowly, just very watery smooth baby rice mixed with apple and pear juice at the moment, but she seems to actually be swallowing some now so it?s a start. Will try carrots again today I think.
Have good days all xx
