June 07 - Happy New Thread

[thisisRialifebaby]

A new thread for the new "us" inside

Ria, if it makes you feel any better I have more to lose than that . I think I'll leave it at that if you don't mind.

Anyway, on that depressing note I'm off to bed.

FWIW you look great in your photos jammy.

(and I'm only looking at the top-end maximum weight on my "ideal range")

AND, we're all only human with 6monthold LOs to look after. We're not slebs with staff to run our lives for us leaving us to just exercise and not eat

Nite jammy.

Would second that Andie.

And would second that as well Ria

what no one else has a butler what sort of wimmin am I mixing with

I've also got rather more than a couple of dress sizes to lose

We've spent the evening trying to think of something to do for my 40th.....got to be relaxing and involve DD....no parties though....

All I can come up with is 2 weeks in Scotland....

Any ideas ladies?

right off to bed....work in the morning...nite all

we went to bath stayed in this hotel twas lovely within walking distance of everything with lovely restaurant only went for the weekend though 2 weeks might be a bit pricey!

I've killed the thread with my hotel suggestion
off to bed now too see yall in the morning

what've I missed about butlers andie?

norty, what about something like this, or similar with a nice champagne picnic on the lake shore. There used to be a company on windermere that did dining cruises but I can't find them. this company have a timetable for evening buffet cruises with music.

When is your birthday? I'll have to start thinking of a treat for mine - I fancy something like the above actually. I would also like to spend our WA on the top oh Hellvellyan as the sunrise is meant to be spectacular, but it won't happen.

Was it just me or was Echo Beach a let-down, made more so by that daft programme before it?

Morning All,
DS still v bad but I have managed to get him to eat a little bit of milk.
He is currently on about 9oz a day - not much.

Off to GP now.

Morning.

Hope DS gets better soon Fury.

Can I have a wee rant please?
At 5am this morning when C woke crying, I found my hip had gone totally stiff and sore and I was having problems getting out of bed. I didn't want to push it too far and end up in worse trouble, so said to DH that I needed to lie back down for a few minutes and try to loosen it up. He said OK and then just rolled over, leaving me listening to C crying! After a minute or so I said "Well are you going to do anything, or offer to do anything?" and he got cross with me, saying it wasn't his fault that he didn't know what I wanted him to do. I know it was very early, but was I being unreasonable to expect him to at least ask? (I asked him in the end to go get C out of her cot while I got mobile to go through to feed)

Morning Fury and Jammy.

Fury, I hope DS feels better soon. It sounds really miserable for you all.

Jammy, yanbu. Dh could have got her up for a cuddle while you got yourself sorted. Unfortunately I think men are far more prepared to 'ignore' the lo's in the night, as they seem to be able to tune it out. I did read somewhere that it's some sort of biological mechanism as they generally can't feed them - but I think dh showed me the article so .

Morning all

Jammy - sympathies {{hugs}}....i was told my "problem" is that I don't leave K to cry when things need doing which is why I get stressed out that nothing gets done .....

Fury....hope GP sorts things out for DS...

morning all we were like drowned rats on the school run this am

fury really hope ds is ok and the gp gets you sorted

jammy I have similar ishoos with my dh in the night so now I am very specific like this morning when I had been up 4 times and lo woke at 6.30 I said you'll be taking him downstairs now then
tbh I think they just don't think

If I have to watch Peppa Pig one more time I think I shall kill myself! I accidentally bought dd a dvd box set for xmas and any moment that she is not watching it is a moment wasted as far as she is concerned!

Fury, hope your ds is ok and hope a mummy day makes him feel better x

My dp wouldn't think to get up in the night either. He quite often half wakes up and is talking to me and 2 seconds later is fast asleep again. When he wakes up in the morning he can't remember the convo we have had. It's as if he is sleep talking. I wish I could do that!

Holly, why don't you jump on a train and come to my house for lunch? I'll pick you up at Clapham Junction

Jammy, perfectly reasonable rant imo! Its not just about the baby crying, its about concern for our welfare too. "Are you OK?" would have been the appropriate response, followed by "what do I need to do?"

I also think they don't know what to do, but don't like being told either.

My DP doesn't seem to want to hold lo - I hand her over and say 'hold her a min please' he says, 'put her in her chair'. I can't understand why he doesn't want to cuddle her at every available opportunity! Its not like I hand her over unless I have to .

But he is back tomorrow. A mum in the playground today asked me if I was 'waxed and lithe' ready for his return? my response was, 'no, I'm knackered and shattered'.

waxed and lithe what planet is she on foxy not mine
milky and blobby rules in our house

Waxed and lithe!!
BRILLIANT ROFL

hi all fury hope all goes well at gp!

jammy you rant away my dh is the same and one of as to stop up wi dd but guess what it always me, but he does stop up till 12 30 so i get a little sleep.

anyone herd from daisy?

chloe going to phyiso today, and now shes full of eczma too gp thinks shes going through meds books to keep them all on there toes

Poor C, trace, I hope it goes well.

ROFL at waxed and lithe - definitely blobby and stubbly here

And I'm with you on Peppa Pig Holly - I swear I know every episode off by heart now.

dd love in the night garden, and tubbys

oh she dont do much moving but she lets us know what she wants brr for milk and dinner lol

Hope everything goes well with Chloe Trace xxx

Fairy, it does make me laugh, especially when Peppa tells Daddy Pig how fat he is, but it does wear really thin after a while!

Foxy, I would love to come to your house...if only I lived a little closer. Shall we can arrange a meet up in London soon? Maybe a little shopping in Covent Garden or to the Science Museum perhaps?

Waxed and lithe? Interesting! More like stubbly and stiff!

LOL foxy, parallel universe, obviously.

rant away jammy. especially when "those beings" expect us to magically appear with the lemsip if they so much as groan.

My problem (aside from groaning) is that DH won't put baggins down, hardly ever, so that is why nothing gets done here. I am harsh, I can stand a little whimper for a few minutes, but DH is hopeless.

good luck with the physio trace.

how did you get on with the GP fury?
