saralou100 · 23/04/2007 23:09

debs just seen your thread.. talk to us if your still their??

your friends gonna be good... i see people go through this every day i'm woking and people cope because thats what they have to do, and people are amazing at doing that... i can have the best laugh with people who are terribly ill, they keep a positive smile on their face.. go visit her in hospital after, give her a gentle hug and make her smile... forget she has cancer, she's your friend!!

i wish her all the best.. it's not fair and it's often the nicest people!

Morning all

Debs, I haven't found the thread yet but will do when I get back from school run, just wanted you to know we are all here for you, and you have my email ([email protected]) I am nearly always at the 'puter even if I'm not on MN (until DS1 comes home at least)

HC if you gave her strawberries, oranges, bananas, peas, blue berries, plums, and something that give violet poo, you could make a rainbow poo Now that is something to put in the baby book

I am off to school now I have exhausted my brain of what makes what colour poo xxx

HappyCatandIzzy · 24/04/2007 10:08

I feel a bit better about the poo thing now. It's good to know that it's normal. I would have felt silly ringing the HV to ask her about poo, especially if it's quite normal for this to happen during weaning. Thanks guys!

saralou100 · 24/04/2007 12:46

hellooooooooooo!!!!!!

so ds1 can hear, been for his hearing test today... dr doing it was lovely... she listened to his babbling and saw my (very short) list of words he can say and is gonna refer to SALT... kind of hoping we won't be needing it, but at least his name is in the system rather than waiting to see if he improves... it's kinda breaking my heart to see other kids his age coming out with words/sentences and all i get is adults saying things like i wish i knew what he was saying or asking me what he's saying when i don't have a clue either.... so thats my toddler talk for the day!!

NJ - rainbow poo???? You need to get out more girly

mygirllollipop · 24/04/2007 15:15

We had a good time up north bar one incident, hoping to go up lots and meet SIL and the kids more.
DD4 had her appointment about her feet and all is well, feel more reasurred by this Dr. He examined them thoroughly and her hips and knees too, said it might take 'til she's been walking a year to be normal.
We looked at a house and can't decide whether or not to put offer in.
But we're all well, hope everyone here is too. Heard abuot Charlle hope all is well with her and her DS's.

mygirllollipop · 24/04/2007 15:55

Oh and DD3 had her second birthday which went well.
Debbsy please come back [we need a plead face]

NatalieJane · 24/04/2007 17:53

Welcome back Mygirl Glad everything is OK, link to house please, we'll make your mind up for you

Well today I have been mostly sat watching telly and feeling generally pissed off, don't even know why! I snapped at DH on the phone not too badly mind, there was only about 40 swear words in the two sentences I chucked at him

I am going to sulk over a glass of wine I think G'night girls xxx

Bethbe · 24/04/2007 19:11

What a rubbish day it has been - must be the hummidity!

staceym11 · 24/04/2007 20:09

oh welcome back mygirl!!!! we missed you lots!! theres a thread somewhere about donations for a holiday voucher for charlee if you'd like to contribute. (dont feel pressured, you dont have to!)

lol at njs rainbow poo, hope you feel a bit better tomo tho love!!

well dd has regressed and is now wetting ! argh, hopefully she'll stop quite quickly!

ds has started being sick again! the gaviscon worked for a while and now hes pretty much abck to normal! wish he'd just eat!

went to the 2nd baby massage today which was great, he really enjoys it......acctually he just enjoys having his clothes off and being able to play with his willy but thats not the point!!

NatalieJane · 25/04/2007 09:17

Not just me then Beth?

I think I have worked out why I am so pissed off, I think all of this talk of moving to Spain has made me realise just how bloody miserable I am here, I have no friends (Bar my 60 year old neighbours, who are great but they are old!!) Everyone around here has their own little group of friends that they have known all their lives and no room for me (Though most of them are quite welcome to give me the cold shoulder!) The only one person I have 'clicked' with that goes up the school is moving at the end of the school year so won't be around. My family is all down south, DH's family are about 40 minutes drive away (and no bloody good anyway) except my neighbour and one conversation on the phone to my sister and one to my mum I haven't spoken to anyone since weekend before last, and that was only my MIL, which as I am sure you can all recall my ramblings of her when I was pregnant, well lets just say she isn't exactly my favourite person! I am fed up of being made to feel like a snob just because my DS's always have clean clothes on and I don't F and blind all day long about the lastest bloke I shagged in front of the kids.... GGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

God we need to move!!

Sorry rant over!!

NatalieJane · 25/04/2007 09:19

Just to clarify, they don't shag the bloke in front of the kids, they f and blind about it in front of them!!

staceym11 · 25/04/2007 09:43

i did have to read that bit twice nj but got it the second time! lol

poor you, its hard being in an area you dont know anyone, i find that here and im only 20 min away from my mum! it looks good that dh is considering moving to spain tho, apparantly the locals are lovely out there!

to you!

NatalieJane · 25/04/2007 09:49

Well he isn't going to like it but even if we can't pull this move to Spain off, we are going to have to do something, even if it means moving back down south. We have lived up here nearly 4 years, by the time the fixed mortgage is up we will have been here 6, and if things haven't gotten any better by then, we are off, he can't say I haven't giving it a go after 6 years, can he?

staceym11 · 25/04/2007 10:15

no 6 years is long enough to be unhappy osmehwere isnt it? poor you! wish i was somewhere near to help but being in surrey isnt much use to you!

saralou100 · 25/04/2007 10:20

agreed... yesterday was a vey sucky day! dp came home to find me pulling my hair out and nearly in tears! ryan cried from 4.30 - whilst doing ds1's tea - till dp got home at 7.30... i can't handle 2 when their like that!!!

nat you have my sympathies... we live away from our families too, their all in london and we're down on the southcoast, although i've made friends, their not close like my girls at home are! and it's my family i miss the absolute most! i've been conspiring though to get them to move to me! mum and dad are just in the process of selling, so i'm very excited about that! but it is hard not knowing people, theirs a whole support system that you miss out on! must be even harder as a sahm!

Well hello all (sheepish emoticon)decided to stay,only going to post on this thread and my beanie thread though,just feeling a little fragile at the minute, lots going on dh still not pulling his weight and we are argueing all the time,my mum not well again,my df op yesterday (she is ok we all had a terrible sense of foreboding that they were going to operate and find more cancer) but they didnt thank god!!! so im going to see her and her new breasts today she is off her morphine drip already and was sitting up waiting for her breakfast when i rang lol thats my df!!and going back to work,
Sara hope you have a better day today hunny ((((hugs))))thanks for the cheque i got it yesterday xx

oh sod it seems like we could all do with a big hug.
(((((((((((for us all)))))))))

NatalieJane · 25/04/2007 10:32

I am making it sound like it is pure hell living here, it isn't, we have a nice house and DS1 loves his school (even if I think it's shite!) DH is doing well in his job, it is just me that isn't getting on.

Thing is I don't think we could afford to buy down in Bedford now, so we would be giving up the security of owning our own home, and I haven't checked recently but I don't think we could even afford to rent a nice house big enough for us either, so it is probably a no brainer...!

I think we really need to pull our finger out for this move to Spain.

NatalieJane · 25/04/2007 10:37

Oh Debs hello Glad your friend is doing as well as can be expected, and that nothing else was found, how scary for you all.

We will have to sort out meeting somewhere, if only so we can moan about our respective other halves

debbsyandsonn · 25/04/2007 10:40

i think thats a really good idea we should ALL meet up for one day that would be lovely xx
