Rollin', Rollin', Rollin', Though their gums are swollen, Keep them babies rollin', on't side

[LackaDAISYcal]

Here we go then

roll up, roll up for the six month food fest.

Better night here, only two feeds at 1ish and 5ish, but at one point bumble was having a real chat to his blankie. DH was on the sofa and said he couldn't figure out who was talking and thought it was DD until he heard me say "shut up bumble". I have no recollection of it

We've given up with the porridge for a bit as it might have been that upsetting his tummy. He's certainly more cheerful now it's cleared his system.

Glad its worked out emma at least you can have a drink this weekend

Fin v funny going down to sleep tonight. He fights sleep so hard, it's like we're having to convince him that sleeping is nice! And yet he wakes up so cheery, full of the joys of spring and raring to go.

He has started doing that ace jumping up and down without lifting the feet thing when he stands on my lap. Scuse me, I just need to go and breathe pinot grigio fumes over his little cot and watch him sleep for a min...

Em?

Lol at Pinot Grigio fumes rutho! need a stiff drink myself after this evenings events!

Cross posted, never mind, Emmanj. Ellie, PMSL at your comment about having a drink following Em's vow never to have drunken sex again!

Honeymoonmummy, you have to be invited by an admin (I'm not one and can't remember who is but I bet Lacks is involved. Hang on, I will just check.

Back in 2

Honeymoon I think the group is private so won't show up but ladybuzz or dozy I think it was can access it for you.
Glad test was the outcome you wanted emmanj

Ah rutho, those are the best holidays when you have nothing planned just taking each day as it comes

Right really off to bed this time, was just waiting for news from emmanj!

Pleased you got a happy result emmanj

Admins are Ladybuzz, Chocorange and Dozy.

Nighty night y'all, off to cuddle DH and try not to give him ideas...

PS, Em, you KNOW what a stiff drink leads to. Careful now, down with that sort of thing, as Father Dougal would say.

oooh, have just been catching up on this evenings thread, and was tempted to go to the end first (just like witha book) to see what the outcome was for you emmaj, but I was a good girl and read the posts in order for full effect and build up!! Hope you're ok about the result.

rutho hope the doing nothing does stretch to munching through copious amounts of easter eggs!! I had a major shopping fest at our local Home Bargains store, and our spare room is now bedecked with chocolate - can't wait!!

dozy commiserations on the tonsils, hope you feel better soon

Very interested too in the facebook group if that would be ok. The weird thing is, I have you all in my mind looking a certain way , in manner you used to do with radio dj's before they were celebrities!!!

Hopefully ladybuzz will be on tomorrow and let everyone know how to join group! Everybody looked completely different to how I imagined!

Am now waffling, night night ladies

Bloody hell, I forgot to buy Easter Eggs.

FFS.

A good job Finbo is only 5 months old.

And I ate a pack of mini eggs almost absent-mindedly last night.

FFS again. Also waffling, must be the lack of chocolate.

hehe rutho didnt realise again what I had written!!
I too would like to join in on FB if its ok!!
I have 3 sleeps till DH comes home and am practically giddy, I love it when he comes home, it feels like being a teenager in love again, get that fluttery feeling and everything!! I am now waffling aswell haha

It's late. I am too irritated at dh to sleep. Stupid, pointless arguments, but feel less than enthusiastic about a long weekend with him. Duh. I should be grateful, I know. Lacks, I know your dh is working .

cornettos. oh barbs don't beat yourself up. Just 2 days ago I was thinking "these are the best invention ever for 3 year olds who eat ice creams slowly"! . Gave ds1 one and he adored it plus it took him about 30mins to eat it and didn't melt all over him like the icecream van ones. Was an Easter hol treat and I am glad I treated him, so no beating yourself up. I only hope he is not permanently allergic.

rosa, I am not weaning yet and mine were born 22.10 (not sure how many weeks they are!). They have tastes of stuff, but I have not made anything specific or given more than a taste on the tongue. They're not big babies anyway, although I think they are gagging for food. Horrid Mummy. I can't be bothered and Judo is not sitting well, although Baby Wiss can sit beautifully straight-backed! They def lost the tongue thrust though.

vbab. Anger can be a symptom of depression. It affects me like this too. Some people cry, I get super irritated, like really bad PMT all the time. Exactly what you describe really, getting really angry and it lasting. My therapist before said that it is more common for it to be like that in men, but there we go! Poor dh. Everything he does WINDS ME UP something chronic. I try not to say anything but then it gets to a point where I just can't keep my mouth shut anymore and then it comes out nasty. Cue big rows etc. Not good. Anyway, may be worth chatting to GP although I'm not sure they would know a lot. Maybe try out the bit of mumsnet where there are other people with PND etc., more experience.

Emmanj, well you have left the door open for someone else...can't wait to see who's gonna go first!

barbs - Dont beat yourself up about the cornetto.
lacks - No FB account. Just didnt get around to it and all me info on mumsnet now. Not got energy to do FB too even though everyone I know has accounts.
emma - Glad you now have your result. Hope it was the one you wanted.
Anyone else find that sometimes when they are exhausted they cant get off their arses and go to bed?! Poor DS been up screaming for me twice. Bless. After our fall out this aft he still wanted me [tears in eyes whilst smiling emotion]. Couldnt get him to tell me what was up the 1st time. The 2nd time he said it was his legs hurting. He wouldnt let go of me.
Going to Scarborough with DH, DS, Alyssa, my mum, dad and sis tomorrow. Wish me luck as the weather is forecast as s**t and the traffic will be murder. But still looking forward to the fresh air .

vbab "Anyone else find that sometimes when they are exhausted they cant get off their arses and go to bed?!"

I am here for that very reason

Ok joined the FB revolution. Look for Ann Wymer. Will make my page fancy and add photos at some point ?

my depression manifests itself in out and out rage as well.......mainly brought on by panic and anxiety, but try expalin that to a six year old

phew emmanj, relief , what a roller coaster for you though!!! (I give it a week before you and DH are thinking "hmmmmm would have been nice though" )

merry, aldi do mini choclate covered cornets that are just the right size for a three year old!

My it's been a busy old night. DH is chasing me up to bed...and NOT in a good way; he wants his sofa

elie, I love fuzzis; very slim fitting but not the most absorbant with the microfibre insert. I just change them more often and have more inserts than pockets so drying isn't a problem. they do a one size now, but not sure how it works as the legs have elastic in them which sounds like the elastic in kids and maternity trousers.....sounds uncomfortable.

also another one here who is nackered but not going to bed!!
IKWYM about people looking a certain way, like radio dj's fudge!also would like to join FB, i spend most of my eveings shifting between FB and MN! (no social life and DH works till 9.30pm)

Vbaband merry - sorry your feeling rubbish and angry. I can relate...usually just because im ratty and irritable due to lack of sleep. DH gets on nerves too.

Have a lovely time away all those who are off outta here this wknd, will keep fingers crossed for weather and traffic!

LOL at 'who's gunna go first',merry!!! deff not me now i will make sure of that!

vbab, you aren't coming up in a search?

Morning!!
Well my long lie yesterday was a one off! We have been up since 5! Knew that was going to happen as we were playing catch up with milk all day yesterday!
Me and DH lying in bed whilst DS in bouncer on floor beside us giggling & chattering quite happily!
We are heading to ikea today, I can taste the meatballs already!!

Merry hope you got some sleep and have a good weekend with your DH.
Vbab, daisy and emmanj all late night owls last night!

Hmph DH now snoring!!

oooh, you brave soul choc daring to go to IKEA on a bank holiday!!

bumble was up partying from 4 til 5 this morning. Kept rolling over and then getting cross. He would sleep if in my bed, but as soon as I shuffled him over into the cot he woke up and started rolling.

He's rolling and getting cross again this morning, so I have his tummy propped up on a cushion and the potty mat to look at.....it worked for 5 minutes

this is a really trying age as they don't want to lie still, but can't really entertain themselves.

Morning all! I see that the weather has heard it's a bank holiday and has brought cheery Easter rain for Sheffield this morning. At least I won't have to bother with sun cream!

Vbab and Merry, IKexactlyWYM. I talked to my GP cos I was just so furious the whole time and she was v sympathetic and nice and I'm seeing her again in a couple of weeks. I started feeling a bit better the minute a Professional Health Person said "No, you're not a rubbish mum, you have mild PND", and realised that whatever is going on in my head it's not that I'm a horrible person or that life is actually really, really shit, it's a combination of tiredness, isolation and bad brain chemistry (or something). The GP gave me a mood assessment questionnaire and a second appointment a couple of weeks later to see how I'm doing.

The questionnaire made me think about anger - I get incredibly overheated about things like DH leaving a mess in the kitchen, or being late for things, or other drivers being rubbish and I really have to try and keep a lid on in as (for me) anger breeds anger and the more I let rip the more often and worse I do it! So I am forcing myself to say "Goodness me, Fin, isn't the driver of that red car silly" instead of "Get out of my way, wanker - and the scooter you rode in on! Gah!". It isn't as satisfying but I am finding myself exploding behind the wheel less.

Right now I am trying not to be angry that DH is only just in the shower so Fin is having his nap in the cot rather than on the way to the in-laws... It is DH's holiday as well and he works really hard all week, plus he got up in the night to shush Fin. I am trying so hard to develop a sense of proportion and pick my fights so that when I am angry it means something but it is sooooooooo hard not to just snap sometimes.

Chocolategal, v jealous of meatballs. I have a massive IKEA list of things I could probably also get from other shops but I needs those meatballs. Neeeeeeeeeed. Not want.

Okay, DH has stopped stomping around in the bathroom, so I am going to make us runny eggs with soldiers as a Finlay-free treat. Hope everyone has a really good day and that your families are super nice to you and provide rest and choccy eggs!

Morning ladies

Rutho I so think you are right about sometimes biting your tongue and thigs being in proportion. Sometimes I get so cross and wound up about silly things. DH says he can never win with me. If only has realised years ago

Where s this meet up your having? Is it an hour away from me or further? I can do meadowhall in just over an hour?

Anyone bored of their pram and fancy a change. I keep looking on ebay but I really shouldn't as I don't need one!

Have a good day at Ikea Choc. Sorry meatballs Bleugh, now one of their Bacon Ciabatta's no were talking. Rutho take it you go to the nottingham one. So do we!

Off to make butternut squash. Never done it before!

morning all can't speak and in pain as friggin' tonsillitis is back. Discharged myself from hospital yesterday with lots of antibiotics and painkillers as no way spending easter weekend in. TBH, am shattered and only up for a few hours at a time. Luckily my parents are on hand, have taken the 2 DS's to easter egg hunt whilst DH is looking after Tiger. Am deffo going to have them out asap now, but I need a month of no tonsilitis before I can sort that out.

Have skim read, Emma good news on your pregnancy or lack of, was a tiny weeny bit of you NOT disappointed?!!! I know that Tiger is my last but still am feeling very broody!!

I wonder who will be the first now? Shall we take bets??!!!

If anyone wants to join our FB group they are best speaking to Chocorange as I have no idea how to get people to join unless I have your RL names, then I can invite you!!!

Off now for a lie down....

Happy Easter all

Glad to hear your home dozy, make sure you get that rest if u can. You'll prob be so much better if they whip the tonsils out.

rutho - glad things are better for you re: seeing your GP, big step! I have road rage too, nothing winds me up more!

Weather here in Southed is absolutley lovely. DH is mowing lawn in garden with DD in Jumperoo out there.

Think we're heading down to the seafront later. Have a good day all.

I feel like a weight has been lifted IYSWIM, after the whole pg saga, im very relieved...no Dozy, didnt have any wee regrets! (despite being a little broody last week in Mammas & pappas!) its sooo not the right time!

Be back later
