We can't win!! xx

 

[Eryinera]

Nope! So hubby just got home and we both were dying to tell each other what the other said in their sleep last night.

My dream had another staring role for vegetable soup. where I shouted out "the vegetable soup!!! but you don't understand!! We paid for it! WE PAID for it!"

Whilst hubby said "that's a good point. if I build the wall to escape the assassins then I'll be 3/4 the way out the door"

I think he wins for "dream I'd most like to have!"

 

[Eryinera]

I feel really bad coz I don't feel well enough to take my son trick or treating. Hopefully it will be his last time as an only child! Its also the due date of loss number 2. I feel like I should be doing something. but all I want to do is lie on the sofa.

 

[lisey]

Don't be hard on yourself ery. Just do what you can manage. Due dates are always hard. I never do anything in particular on those days. Just think of them lots xx

 

[snowbee]

Hope you are ok Ery, maybe you can hide some sweets around your house instead of going trick or treating?

Flu jab done.

Nikki, sorry you're going through all this now, but it sounds like you are better off without him and his family.

Hot chocolate has been my go to when going to a coffee shop. But I need whip cream in mine, otherwise it's too chocolatey for me.

I really hope you sick ladies start feeling better soon. I don't know how you're managing. I've gotten lucky inthat I'm finally getting energy back and I'm now more able to eat a variety of food. I even made French toast this weekend and cooked the Mexican food for our theme day at school. I can't go non-stop anymore, but at least I'm getting spurts of energy. I really hope you get there soon!

Sickness is getting better from 7/7 days feeling sick I went to getting 1 day off I'm now having about 3 days off in a run. So I can see it getting better. I managed to take him to two neighbours and then he's answering the door dressed as a grim reaper he seems happy with that responsibility and all. LOL

 

[lisey]

Oh I can't wait. I just took my dog for a walk and managed it so that's a bonus. My OH has been taking him.
I am a bit annoyed with my OH (prob hormones). I suggested a few days away, just me and him. My mum said she'll have my son for me. Not abroad or anything, just somewhere that I can relax completely. I prob wouldn't be able to do much but a change of scenery and just adult time would be nice. I found a nice place for a good price and he was up for it and now he is saying he is not sure as he only has 15 days holiday left!!! 15 days is a fair amount and I only want 3. I have been suffering so badly and thought he would want to do something to cheer me up. I know it wouldn't be an adventurous break as I can't do much but would have been nice still. We are not the outdoorsy, trekking type people anyway. Just a bit hurt as I feel he wants to save the days to go to Spain to see his friend. He would still have enough days anyway.
You would think after 7 weeks of relentless sickness and nausea he would do anything to cheer me up?! Xx

 

[kabuk1]

Lisey, you so deserve a pick me up holiday. Maybe your oh will come around. Someone needs to have a serious word- oh should be jumping at the chance to give you the relaxation time you want. Maybe you could go with a friend if oh isn't up for it? Take some relaxation time for you one way or another. You deserve it!

 

[snowbee]

Sounds fair to me lisey, he will still have plenty of days left over. What is he planning on doing with them anyway? When does his holiday year start? My oh has already said he would like to go away before baby, we usually have 2-3 nights away for our wedding anniversary, but as my due date is the day after he said lets go earlier in the year instead. My oh only has 15 days off in total all year, he gets no weekends/bank holidays off either, that is 15 days total. We usually take 10 days holiday, then the 2-3 for our anniversary and the other odd days are for visiting my parents who live away from us.

 

[lisey]

Thanks ladies. I don't feel as unreasonable now. Part of me feels like just going on my own. None of my friends would be able to come with their own family commitments.
His holiday starts again in June I think. I am guessing he wants a few days over Christmas, he wants to go to Spain to see his friend (which I am fine with, but I think I should come first. I did all the injections for IVF, I was poked and prodded etc and now with the constant exhaustion and nausea, I think a break would do me the world of good). I am assuming he may want to factor in days once baby is here too but i still think he could work that all out with the days he has. He will get 2 weeks paternity and he is able to work from home when needs be too.
He is going to 'think about it'. That annoys me and makes my stubborn side kick in and think well I don't want to go anyway. I think he gets 27 days or something in total so he should count himself lucky as like you say snowbee, your OH only gets 15 to begin with. Plus he gets bank holidays etc xx

 

[snowbee]

Christmas falls with loads of extra bank holidays this year so he will be getting extra days then anyway, maybe try that tactic...

 

[nikkix86]

hi girls just got back from trick or treating knackered now but kids had a great time lol did anyone have scans today?

 

[snowbee]

Has anyone else not told anyone yet? We still haven't and are still debating what to do about my parents. He is reluctant to tell his dad anyway (he is an alcoholic and random things send him on a drinking binge and my oh is worried it may set one off). I quite like having it as a secret but not sure how long we can really keep it for!

Anyone done any more shopping?

 

[lisey]

We will see I guess. I haven't mentioned it this eve.
I only have the sleepsuits I ordered yesterday. They arrived today, too cute for words. I want to buy more desperately but I have a habit of going overboard with these things xx

 

[nikkix86]

I've bought one vest so far that's it lol I want to buy more but not sure where to keep it! lol

are you girls finding out the sex?

 

[Emily0505]

I've not bought anything yet but might buy a little something soon.

We are def going to find out the sex but not sure if we'll get an early gender scan or wait until the 20 week scan.

XX

 

[nikkix86]

do you know from how many weeks you can do the private gender scan?

 

[Emily0505]

I think it's from 16 weeks onwards

XX

 

[lisey]

Yep, pretty sure it's 16 weeks. I can't wait to find out what you're all having xx
