A thread for today....maybe csws can do us a proper one when she is better

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Set a reminder

2boysmacca · 12/03/2007 21:14

Yes I looked at those. If you google play houses then that website is returned. I fell in love with them but not the prices!! They are truly amazing.

I did ask if dh wanted one, and I'd go live out in it

Flamesparrow · 12/03/2007 21:50

Oh don't say that Macca - far too much to do

Finally finished care leaflet, battery nearly dead... methinks bed beckons.

Flame - hope your DH and DS are ok and not suffering too much.

at the playhouse!!

Well having a crap night again, I asked DH to come here to talk which he did and I asked him to come home and try again and he said he doesnt feel the same way I asked him why he sent me this valentines text saying he loved me if he didnt and he said he does love me. He also said he misses me. I'm so confused. I said to him if he was having an affair I could deal with the break up easier but he said he isnt having one. I said to him not to throw our marriage away unless he was 100% sure it is what he wants to do and he cant do it. There is a part of him I think that wants to try but he said he is scared it wont work and then we will have to go through all this pain again. I think he owes it to us and to DS to try if there is still love there but all I got is "we'll see". He looked teary when he left, probably because I blubbed for the whole time he was here and then for two hours after. I'm so fed up. If I didnt have DS I honestly reckon I could have done something stupid by now as I feel THAT low, HV is coming tomorrow to check up on me as I mentioned it to her last week. I'll look like a frog in the morning with the amount of crying I've done tonight, I have survived on a sandwich all day too and cant stomach anything else so just having a milky hot choccie to give me something before bed.

Oh 3k -I really feel for you. However hard it is, you can't make him want to come home and try again.
I know from my friends recent similar experience, theat her xh still cared and when he was her upset would try and make her feel better (the I love you text, a cuddle etc) but ended up giving terribly mixed messages and left her feeling worse, as he didn't want to try again either,

Please eat today, talk honestly to the hv, and try and get out for a bit... we are all here for you anytime.

csws I need to eat all the same stuff for iron that we has when pg. green veg, dried fruit, dark choc things with vit c to help absorbtion.
I bought a pregnancy multivit (No I'm not, but it was veggie and had all the things I need) as well.
Basically she has made me think I do need to eat better. I do one meal a day in the evening with the kids, don't eat breakfast very often at all, and snack on rubbish for lunch And drink tea all day. I'm reintroducing breakfast (fortified cereal) today.

macca - love the play tower. I wish our garden was big enough for something like that.
That night out sounds very expensive for something you don't think you would enjoy. Flame is right, surely your friend will understand.

Morning, just a quicky.

3k sweetheart just wish there was something we could all do to help, would give you a real hug if I could. Try and look after yourself and eat if you can, if not for yourself then for ds, he needs a well mummy.

Frizbe, I also have school runs 10-15 min each way plus other things in the week. To be honest I have a lot of stuff going on that I don't really feel able to post on here about as is DH's stuff really more than mine but I can't talk to anyone in RL about it either for the same reason and being tired makes it harder to cope so I get like this Might try those bananas Did feel a bit better after sorting the houuse a bit but had a crap evening so need to do some more to make me feel better today.

mustrunmore · 13/03/2007 07:37

Sorry, in a hurry.. but I have read the postings. Am getting increasingly worried about everyone
Jelley; going to look for your pram shoes when ds1 is in nursery. If none in Boots left, they had nice ones in Woolies too the other day, although our Woolies is a bit sporadic with its stock!!

My nursery run takes up 2 hours a day Half an hour each way, even though it's only be 6-7 mins if I drove!

Flamesparrow · 13/03/2007 08:03

I'm going to town today, so will have a look about for nice boy feet stuff too

MRM... have lost your address, and I need it

3K - I know its not the same, but I remember many times trying to break up with DH when we were first living together... we were going through a very bad patch (I know now due to my depression), kept arguing, I was always crying. I kept trying to finish things because I was convinced it would always be like that, and that it needed to end then or it would be so much more painful the longer it was left... could your DH be feeling like that, or do you think that he is upset with hurting you so much and it is sending the mixed signals? (Trying to be honest, but not wanting to upset you at the same time). Huge huge hugs.

Back later

Flamesparrow · 13/03/2007 09:44

Quick question for nappy ladies (don't wanna stick it on the ad thread as it is just a pondering...) - wacky wraps - would you be interested? (Thinking back to the pretty bums, poppers conversation)

PhoenixGirl · 13/03/2007 09:48

Yes deffo. I want one

I've put some Lew in nappy pics on my profile

Flamesparrow · 13/03/2007 09:54

Emrys really is a midget compared to the other babies isn't he? Lewis always looks so grinny in the pics - tis lovely.

Flamesparrow · 13/03/2007 10:28

damewashalot · 13/03/2007 10:29

Jelley · 13/03/2007 10:29

PG pics are lovely. It makes me smile when I see the total nappy convert in you. Flame should be proud

Back later, gotta go get tonights tea in the slow cooker.

OP posts:

Flamesparrow · 13/03/2007 10:34

Then we'd just get invaded Dame by the anti-club people.

PhoenixGirl · 13/03/2007 11:11

Bad mummy alert. When i shout 'No' to Lew he looks at me and smacks the back of his own hand. Maybe i've tapped him a few times too many

damewashalot · 13/03/2007 11:22

Well I know that flame, I'm far too scared of all the mean people to really do something like that

Flamesparrow · 13/03/2007 11:31

pmsl PG Choked on my biscuit reading that!

3k · 13/03/2007 13:53

PG that made me laugh, bless him for tapping his own hand. Ben has learnt to blow kisses now which is really sweet.

He has a cold today all green snot and moany, have given him some Calpol and he is napping at the moment.

Flame- DH did say a while back that he felt very depressed and HV thinks depression could be what he is suffering from by what I have said today.

Thanks for all your support, I have eaten a roll today and a packet of crisps but still look like a frog. I text him this morning asking if he had thought about what I said but no reply. Think I do need to accept it is over but my gut feeling is that there is something still there.

Flame - I have two wacky wraps- they are cute so list them on your site!!

CantSlimWontSlim · 13/03/2007 15:05

Have started a NEW THREAD - hopefully the title is uncontentious!

Flamesparrow · 13/03/2007 15:05

He needs to get the depression under control before making any big life choices Your brain really doesn't work when you're dperessed.

Will try and sort out the funds to do the wacky wraps.
