A thread for those of us who have realised our partners are not so bad after all....

[Janni]

..so we would like to practise being nicer to them! I managed a week without saying anything sarcastic or critical to DH.

This week I'm also trying to be more affectionate to him, rather than just hugging the kids!

I feel happier and the atmosphere at home is much better.

Hello everyone... I'm not sure how I'm doing to be honest, we aren't bickering and falling out, but I feel myself getting so angry and frustrated some days. I don't think it helps that I'm stressed out about my mum, DP was very sweet last night when I lost it and bawled my eyes out..but I feel cross that it gets to that point before he realises I need him. I know he's not a mind reader, but a bit of empathy wouldn't go amiss sometimes! Other than that, things are ok, DS doing really well in big boy pants and at playschool...

jrocks sorry to hear you have been so down

glad ds is doing well we havent managed to stay in pants here yet as sppech delay he doesnt talk at playschool so still in nappies

but doing well at home

hope all feel better soon i have been up all night being sick ds has been up all night wanting to be sick and dp is home day early so not going to get the reception he was hopng for and i could of done with that extra day of peace

as now im going to have to be more aware of how im acting when i feel like poo xx

Oh blimey bubblagirl - you poor thing. Hope you and DS feel better soon.

i feel completely shattered just managed to get ds down to bed he has come out full of cold poor thing

no sickness for either of us today he did have diarrhea this morning but nothing since ate well at dinner so im praying will sleep well tonight i dont know how i made it through the day

he napped for 10 mins and woke up screaming in pain with belly ache lasted about an hr then he was back to normal self but no sleep hense the really early night as im not functioning to well now so need to just lie on the sofa and wait for dp to come home

and just hope i look convincing when i tell him im happy to have him back lol

Hi if anyone is still around on this thread.
Just want to say I've realised I need to do a bit of an overhaul on me and my life and that that will help my relationship with DH, because it's really not good at the moment. So I'm going to start a self-help thread in the 'feeling depressed' section of the board

Janni I hope you find a way through your problems, best of luck with the overhaul, Hope to see you around the boards still x

Just when i was thinking,oh god i wish i had listened to my mother - he bought me coffee in bed

Thanks, JRocks - i'm still very much here!
jumpingbeans - we're suckers for a bit of attention, aren't we?

im back computer crashed on me had to get new monitor

sadly all hasnt been so good me and dp really was not getting on

i stood firm for a change and said how i would like him to make effort to as really trying hard and efforts, unnoticed and he was being a pain in the ass

he now thankfully is trying harder too although still stressing me out

hope all well x

Well done Bubbla, hope things start to improve for you x

what a great thread

well i would like to say thanks to my efforts me and dp are getting along great

but i am also excersing more at home and feel so much more confidant with myself as much as i can do considering i still have bald patch and tablets dont seem to be working

but at least me and my dp seem more like a team now ds has his assessments tomorrow so really worried about that and wont see dp at all tomorrow and his been working all day and will be at work into the night tonight

but hey get it over and done with and at least fingers crossed we'll know where we stand

well i9 hope every one is ok and not deserted us completely things still good this end my ds was diagnosed with HFA on thur so been a bit up and down but ok now

dp still annoying me but thank fully were getting on still i hope every one else is ok i miss hearing from you all x
