June 07 - Do we smell? Yes bumper, I'm talking to YOU!!!!

[LackaDAISYcal]

Natty, that is a bit like talking to one of my boys

Well done Norty. A braver woman than I!

I don't think the food battle is really worth it at this age. Omlettes and fish-fingers are fine,better than fine actually IMO. Not keep on spagetti hoops myself, but as a side they're fine (not a bowl of them as my MIL gives them for tea. That's not a dinner in my book).

i dont bother battleing either.
but i do have a dont eat dinner dont get puddign rule.

i have found with tom this rule works brilliantly. for how long i dont know, nothing works for long with kids does it

I agree, don't eat fine, but don't ask for pudding. I don't get angry about it anymore (well, I do, but no as bad)

The meatloaf is going back in the fridge should anyone ask for a bedtime snack.

(They really do need an 'evil' emoticon, don't they?)

It gets worse when they get older and tell you what you've slaved over is 'disgusting'.

(Which it isn't, the girls scoffed it, but the boys arsed around)

Helllloooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
I'm back We came home half a day early - not that we weren't having a great time, but we have friends visiting on Sunday so thought it would be good to get washing done and be a bit sorted out for them.
Will catch up in a bit, just marking my place for now, but must say THANKS HOLLY for organising the duplo testing. It was here when we got back (the police station set) and Jamlet loves it .

wb jammy

i feel odd again.
its def coming on in the afternoons, maybe i am doing too much and im just really tired.

no docs appoints till monday so making do till then, but DH is off all day tuesday so i can take it easy if docs tell me too

oh and foxy, tom tells me his dinner is disgusting quite often, and that i "stink" if i happen to break wind...

I was wondering if it could be pollen/hayfever Natty, given the time it comes on, causing the tight-chestedness. I get it at this time of year, and only in March.

thanks Natty. Haven't read everything yet, but saw the post about your scan being OK So glad. Bedtime to do now, then will finish catching up later.

Hello all!
I am well!

Updated other thread - not typing it again

oh foxy thats a good idea, it might well be, that can cause nosebleed cant it?
i have increased allergys when pregnant, like my skins is stupidly bad with ecsmatha (sp?) when normally a few drops of emoliant gets rid of it.

ill add it to my list

can i take antihytamines in pregnany?

oh fury thats good news (well u know what i mean)
are any of us near you to give you a hand?

Glad you got on OK fury....sounds like they were very thorough.....you're going to have to take it easy. Hopefully it wasn't Oncology where you were seen (cancer) and it was gynaecology (women's bits!).

See your GP Natty....can't take antihistamines when pregnant unless advised to by a GP.

Good to see you Jammy - good holiday?

Right off for scampi and chips

Haha!
No, so not oncology then!
Gynaecology then.
They were thorough. I was relieved. Despite the hanging around for HOURS, I was relieved.

sort of good news bad news Fury. Yay for baby fury , but for poor you. I had SPD and it was bad enough, but I'm wondering if there was wnything more going on as I still have continence issues and If I sit down for any length of time, I'm practically bent double in pain when I stand up. I also have a mild prolapse going on..yay!!

Had a shite morning with DS1, but then me and the other two went to Temple Newsam to meet up with one of the knicker checkers and her PN buddy (their LOs are 15 months) and had a lovely day, although it was really misty and cold. The sun came out as we packed up to go home....

then DS1 has been a wee shite since we came home from school . I have no idea how to deal with him.

Daisy seems weird that you are still buggered. What does doc say? Have you BEEN to doc about it?

But yes, good news bad news. My mother had 5 and has a better body at 60 and 5 kids than I do at 30 with one, so she's bleeding useless and thinks I make it all up.

ahh, Daisy's probably waiting for it to go away Fury

Really glad you're ligaments are fucked and its nothing more serious.

I have been seeing the postnatal physios since Fin was born and am going back at the end of April to be hooked up to a pooter to test the strength of my pelvic floor. I may need (yet another ) op!

Thats's crap Daisy

Hello Jammy! Sorry, ignored your return

Fury, just read about your troubles. Glad it's "just" SPD and nothing wrong with babyFury (want to say foetusFury to be all alliterative :0). Sorry you had such a hard time on your thread. And Daisy, sorry to hear you're not out of the woods regarding pelvic issues either.

I'm scared to get on the scales After soing so well the past 2 months, I ate far too much on holiday. And just had a HUGE take away curry tonight . Feel like a right fat old cow

Hols were good though Jamlet loved spending time with her grandparents, running around everywhere and playing lots of games with us all. Each night at bedtime we would tell her to give Granny & Grandad a kiss goodnight and she would run over all excited, give them a kiss and then her lip would tremble and she would start to blub as she realised she had to stop playing. And she's got so much more confident with her walking, especially outside and on uneven surfaces Hope to get some pics on FB v soon.

Bless The Jamlet! That is soooo cute.

Wait until the morning Jammy, weigh yourself, brace yourself, and carry on Actually, it probably won't be as bad as you think as I think it takes a week to show, so crack on this week and you might be able to avoid the shock. Alternatively, you may have been a lot more active than you think when you aren't doing 'formal' exercise, but walking a lot more. Anyway, sod all you can do about it now. Enjoy your evening and tomorrows another day

I am now on 28 discussions, after a day of MNing. Not had one for a while, so I am signing off now

Good advice Foxy. Cheers. I am going to the gym tomorrow and swimming on Sunday and hope that will get me back into the way of it. I am sure it was the lack of activity on holiday that eroded my willpower to resist the beer, crisps, biscuits...

Hi Jammy, and bless your little jamlet, she sounds really sweet. Glad you all had a good holiday.

I would avoid the scales this week, work like a trojan through the week and resume your weigh in as normal next week. Actually who am I kidding? I weight myself on a daily basis

It's a real PITA actually, especially now my period has returned.....I have no fecking clue what sort of pads to use now ....ahhhhh more gin nurse

Jamlet can be really sweet. Like when we went round the wildlife park and she put her Fizz doll in the pushchair while we walked. Fizz had to be properly strapped in, and every now and then Jamlet would go over and check she was OK. And when we stopped she would give Fizz a drink...

DD does that too now. If I want to put bumble in car seat/high chair/bouncy chair/buggy, I have to vacate teddies or dollies first.
