[HumphreysCorner]

We have run out of space so thought I would start a new thread.

Pavlov-hope you are OK today hun.

kayzed-well done to Roshi

Gave Sophie some SMA (5oz but she only glugged 3oz ish down) she zonked out immediatedly on her gym mat. Poor girl must have been starving the way she uh, uh, uh when she saw the beaker.

Mum and dad coming in a mo. Dad is tiling and mum and I are going to paint the ceiling. DH doesn't know so watch out for me on the relationships thread later.

Bloss-get you on the homepage! How do you do tips?

Better go-love to all and will catch up later.

blimey can't keep up with this

He's lovely Twinkle, what a sweet face!

btw an ex-neighbour we bumped into guessed Emma's age as 'a couple of months old' not long ago (and he has two children of his own, so no excuse)!!!

Pretty - that vanilla nourishment and rum sounds lush, bummer about the pear!

kayzed - nothing but maths, for 3 years... >

pav- glad you enjoyed your wine

Sleep tight! Was just wondering myself what the hell I'm doing up at this hour.

i'm off too, night all xx

dps back home so gonna drag him to bed soon goodnight ladies

Night all. Talk soon xx

Wow - you were a chatty lot last night - must have been something to do with Friday night alcohol

Thank you for all your birthday messages - I had a lovely day. The zoo was fantastic (will post some photos when I get a chance). Josh kept waving at all the animals - it was very very cute! Then had a takeaway last night and a 'little bit' of white wine!

Twinkle - Aidan is scrummy isn't he?

KZ - really hope everything is ok with DS - Googling really does fire up the imagination but {{{{{hugs}}}}} What an appetite Roshi has! I struggle to get Josh to eat half a jar of Stage 2 (and it usually makes him choke and puke everywhere!) - never mind a whole one!!

Bloss - Josh does the passing the toy from one hand to another whilst I am dressing him and putting his hand through the sleeves - it is cute isn't it?

Jeanie - thanks for the vouchers - might be going today (yummy!)

Annie - no the puking in the restaurant did not put me off my guacomole - it would take a LOT more than that to put me off my food

Anyway, gotta go and give Josh his breakfast (the only meal he eats with gusto)

Hi all - what were you all on last night??? . I of course had half a bottle of red and was tucked up in bed by 10pm, I can even remember the exact date of my last big drinking night out - 21 October 2005 . It was the first day of my last period before getting pg and we all went out after work for a drink that turned into many that turned into raucous meal etc. However, sleep is going better, 5 good nights on the trot, plus I am following the 'dump and run' school of day napping. If he's still really yelling after 5 mins or so I go and get him up and we do something else, but mostly he goes to sleep.

KZ - try not to google too much hun. My mum had to deal with lots of medical issues with my 2 little bros and she said that it was really hard to accept at first that there was anything wrong with her 'perfect' babies. They are both fine young men now (we still wind each other up tho )

Cripes, can't keep up with you lot. Just want to share this with you. Thomas has just started to have just one really long nap each day. And when I say long, I mean up to 4 hours. Yesterday he was up at 8.30am, he had a bf, then got grizzly at about 10.30 so I put him down and he slept til 2pm! Then had to fit in lunch, dinner and 2 bfs before he went to bed at 8.30.

And today he woke at 9.45am (), had lunch at 12.15, I put him down at 1 and he woke at 5! He's been back in bed since 8.15pm.

Not sure why this is, or how long it'll last. He's his normal chirpy self when he's up, so I don't think he's coming down with anything. He's just started sleeping on his side, maybe he's just all comfy and cosy like that?

Lordy girls-how many posts?????

Pavlov-v about your night out to see the lovely Paulo. Hope DP feels better soon.

kayzed hun-you are so supportive despite your own troubles. Echo the others in suggesting that you don't Google-tis difficult not to though. (((((xxxxxxxxx))))))) P.S.-you are so, so clever. Have utmost respect for anyone who excells at maths.

Ceebee-how lovely going to the Zoo. Pleased you enjoyed your day.

Twinkle-your pics are lovely. Have you noticed a squint-surely at this age the eye muscles are still a tad weak Tongue tie broken eh?

Lysettes-don't forget about us when you start TTC-so excited for you.

Well, have had another shite day and ended up backing into another car at Em's dance class. The lady was so nice about it and ended up comforting me as I burst into tears. Luckily DH has persuaded her to come in to his work for an estimate so we may not have to go through the insurance company. My excess is £350 I think. When I got home I couldn't stop crying and DH just asked what was wrong as it was a sunny day?!?!?! Have shouted at Em too much again so think I will have to go to the Drs but don't know what to say when I get there. That I cry most of the time, am permanently tired, have a short fuse. Perhaps I could ask the Dr what he/she recommends that I can take to be able to 'cope' better. More 's.

Byee for now and love to all.

Oh HC {{{{hugs}}}} Don't know what to say, except that it must be awful for you hun. I hope your doctor can help.

hc- lots of {{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}} hope the dr can help so you feel better soon xxxxxx

frenchleave- i wish both my dc could nap as thomas! he seems fine, he just has all his naps in one go junior has around 3 naps, usually because dd ends up waking him up

maewest- the last time i got out of my head was just before dd was concieved me and my bestfriend started drinking wine very early and by 9pm we were gone. we found ourselves in the pub toilet in and out of conciousness and next thing we know we're in an ambulance! and in middlesex, and we live s.london!!

HC {{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}
Say to the doc exactly what you just said to us "I cry most of the time, am permanently tired, have a short fuse"
You must go, you can't go on like this can you? Docs hear this all the time from all types of people.
We are all here for you and you can talk to us about anything xxx

Agalch- How did your boys get on? You must be so proud of them, I love hearing about your family.

Pav- Congrats on the "ma"

Lysettes- TTC?!! Wow! Good luck x

Annie- Your toileting with an audience made me larf

Mae- It's awful when they hurt themselves isn't it? I always feel terribly guilty but I can't be there ready to catch him all the time.

Bloss- "actively discouraging it" (crawling) It won't be long now- ha ha!!

KZ- I definitely need to get to the hairdressers for a colour!
I hope you're not worrying too much, difficult I know, sending love for your gorgeous boy x

Sleep- Has the teething calmed down? I hate hate hate teething, my beautiful and fun little boy turns into another child entirely
We're doing ok, thanks for asking. Both making an effort, I'm sure things will work out in the end.
How are you two doing? x

Pretty- put in some serious speech training "MAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMA"

Twinkle at your Tesco encounter. Bless the old couple but what were her parents thinking?
Really lovely pics

French- at your naps. LOL at you being suspicious, "there must be a reason, it won't last, I'm going to pay for this somehow...................."

Have had a busy day visiting family, Zack put up with it all in very good spirits- bless him.

Have found some ready made foods that he enjoys-yay! Really makes life easier when out and about. They are 'Plum Baby' and 'Ella's Kitchen'.
A new favourite is garlic bread

HI all,

KZ- I know exactly what you mean about the idea of your perfect DS and know from experience what it feels like when there is, or seems to be something different with them. I hope that this doesn't sound harsh. I just wanted to let you know that I can sympathise with you. I felt like you do when Ross was being diagnosed with Aspergers. Fingers crossed though, that Chili will be fine. xx

Hi Jeanie

Hope you're well and haven't had anymore trouble from your ex's gf? Grrr- silly woman

us-hiya. Apparently they are not giving me any money at all now!! He has told me that his company is in financial difficulties and he can't afford to pay me. He then asked me if Chris (DP) can't help more. Erm.. he is already bringing your children up, keeps a roof over their heads etc and has done for the last 7 years. What more does he want? Thing is it's DS and DD1's birthdays next month and I'm going to really struggle to buy their pressies. I'm currently trying to find bits to sell on ebay.

Abbey still has no teeth and also really doesn't like my cooking. Cheek!! Can't blame her really I am pretty crap.

Sorry girls, that post was really random.

Bloomin cheek! Are the CSA involved or did you sort it between yourselves? Children need to be clothed, fed and bought b'day pressies!

DS waking -grrrr, best be off. catch up tom x
