Rudely awoken at 4.30 by Thomas! Serves me right for putting him to bed at 8.30! All of a sudden the house seems much colder, he was in a vest, sleepsuit and 1.4tog bag last night and his hands still felt cold when I went to him.

luke was in a sleepsuit, vest and 1 tog bag -it was 22- he slept until 70 when he woke up and decided to have the longest conversation with his toy hippo (Mr Kietel) that you have eevr heard lol he got up at 9.

we went out last night and left luke at mums for the evening (she was working today she couldn't have him overnight) and he was good as gold! brought him home 110ish and he went back to sleep within 15 minutes after a conversation with his hippo lol.

we ssaw guardians of the galaxy and although i wouldnt usually watch that kind of film it was hilarious and excellent!!

going out with my 2 friends and luke today and my friend and her daughter - if she makes it, she almost always cancels.

Omg, I had the worst night with Emma since she was born! Went to bed fine at 7:30pm after having some calpol for her sore gums. I've got a bad cold, Chris has some viral infection. Emma now caught my cold too. So she's was up all night screaming either with sore teeth, or couldn't breathe through her nose, so couldn't soothe to sleep with a dummy. Then she decided now is the time to start sleeping on her side, but kept rolling on to her tummy and startling herself. Changed and fed her at 11:30pm, which kept her asleep for 30 mins before the screaming started again. By 2 I was a zombie so ended up putting her in our bed propped on a pillow on my side, then I slept across the bottom so I could hold her from rolling over. Think I got about an hr and a half sleep after that. Flippin af decided to turn up too. Arghhhh

For the last 2 nights Hayley keeps waking through the night. She was up at 4am last night, kept giving her her dummy and she eventually went back to sleep until 8am. Had her jags today, heres hoping they don't affect her too much.

Got a copy of the letter sent to my ex by my solicitor, so will see what move he makes next

Ruri was the exact same when he had a blocked nose the saviour of the dummy didn't work at all.

Well had my colposcopy today - high grade changes and back in two weeks to get rid of all the bad cells not really what I expected!

 

[Jojo84]

I'm sure it's all done. I know
A few people who have needed to have cells removed and they were done, just jad more regular smears after to keep an eye.

We went out today to a kids cafe and it was good, a little area with walkers and mats for Luke andy friends daughter went I to the soft play - she kept going "baby!" And patting his head lol. She's 2 and a half. She even helped Luke play with toys which was nice and they got on well.

She's potty training her daughter at the moment and she says it's awful!

 

[hayes]

I've has that too hun, had to have them lasered off twice niw I think n many smears etc, but I'm all fine now n back to the 3 yrs like everyone else.

[Kaedin]

I've only had 1 smear when I turned 20, im now 23 and not heard anything about my next one. Asked my GP and she said I "should get a letter in the post"...if not I've to phone, but only just registered with my new doctors so don't want to be asking for smears heh. My new midwife is coming for a home visit next monday, she said she'll weigh hayley and let me know of local stuff to do with hayley ect...which is good as i hope she knows of a childsmile dentist nearby. I'm clueless

 

[T84]

Aw toria, hopefully you have a better night tonight, it's one thing after another for you since you came back! When are kids back at school?

That's rubbish too douglas, not pleasant but you will be fine. You would think that after childbirth we can do anything but I'm shitting myself for my gynae appt!

Kaedin defo get yourself for a smear. They are never as bad as what we work them up to be

Sound like a lovely day too jojo. We had our baby group then massage, and did some last minute holiday shopping. Defo no money left for anything else!

How are you today Bex? Anything sorted with hubbies work? x

 

[Kaedin]

The first one was fine and I've had a baby since, nothing will be worse than childbirth haha!

My ex showed up at 4pm to take Hayley, I assumes he wasn't going to turn up as he basically told me to shove it in previous texts. So he was shouting and swearing at me in the street. He brought her home (4 mins late). and she was asleep and he hadn't even fed her. So she's now sound asleep in her moses basket and hasn't been fed since 4pm so god knows what time she'll wake. This is totally going to mess up her routine and now im going to end up shattered. It's like he walks in, messes everything, im left to clean up the destruction - get her back to a routine then its time for her to go back with him and it all starts over again.. Nightmare

 

[Pumpkin9]

how can he not have fed her? what time was she last fed, and what time did he bring her back? surely she'd have screamed blue murder!!

 

[Pumpkin9]

I've had about 3 smears, can't say i enjoy them but was lucky enough to start having them when I was 20 before they changed the starting age in england and so far (touch alot of wood) i've been clear everytime.

I'm not looking forward to the next one - they always tell me to relax but my muscles turn into a vice as soon as I get the hint they are about to do it.

 

[Toria111]

Well my evening isn't going too bad. Emma's only cried once cause she's rolled on to her tummy. What do all your babies do? I'm tempted to put a blanket over her sleeping bag to hold her in place.

I don't mind a smear. I'd rather know all is ok down there than worry about it. Hopefully after they laser the cells, all will be back to normal for you.

Kaedin, does Hayley take a dream feed? Maybe try that?

 

[Toria111]

Jojo, was that your friend who always cancels?

 

[Kaedin]

how can he not have fed her? what time was she last fed, and what time did he bring her back? surely she'd have screamed blue murder!!

I've not idea how he didn't feed her, she was fed at 4pm and he brought her back at 7:14 sound asleep. And she's still asleep. I'm sitting her kinda hoping she stirs now Would prefer that to another 4am start to my day I've never done a dream feed

 

[Toria111]

Jen, they aren't back to school for another 3 and a half weeks.

Kaedin, might be worth trying a dream feed. Just gently pick her up and get her ready like you would a normal feed. Then put the bottle in her mouth and she should just start sucking. The. Gently burp her and back to bed. Otherwise like you said, she'll be up at 4.
