I find I wake more tired if I doze off at all.
The OH had to be up for Work Exp today at 5:30am and guess what gombeen was up with him cooking a proper breakfast and a good lunch for him. And what time did I get to sleep last night you may ask? AFTER 1!!!!! I kid you not. I was up until 12:30 scrubbing wellies. Yes, that's right wellies. Leaning over into a bathtub. Then when I finished that, I had to obviously disinfect the bath! But then he went to sleep and I wanted to, but the vein was killing me and I had to try and go to the bathroom, so then I spent ages waddling around the hallway willing it to decrease in swelling so I could go

My own fault, he said he would do it all himself this morning, but I couldn't leave it be. Damn nesting
But I know the feeling of wanting to go to sleep and not being able to. I usually (if I even get the chance) wake up more tired and feeling terrible. So I will wait until a respectable enough time tonight (bout 10ish) and go to bed then, but it will be so hard to get through the day, especially with the warm weather!0 -

I feel so uncomfortable today i think the realisation that i'm anemic has had a negative effect on me, i feel so much more tired today than last few weeks - but that also could be the relief from worrying over the weekend. The ticking/pulsing in my stomach has returned and it's annoying the hell out of me. If it's baby lying on a nerve, i can't move it, if it's baby hiccuping, i can't stop it. If i lie back in my chair it doesn't seem as strong, but it's still there, and can't really be lying back in my chair in work. I'm sunburnt and itchy. I am wearing non maternity tights that are sticking to the back of my legs and creating a worse itch. My maternity tights ripped this morning, this was my first time wearing them. I feel so full yet i have barely eaten anything and i need to keep eating to keep my energy up. I just want to go home and sleep, but i know if i tried, i wouldn't be able to. Is this what it feels like when you start to feel fed up of being pregnant? I feel so bad saying that because of all the worry. I feel like i should want to be pregnant for the next 7-9 weeks so she gets the best nurturing. 0

My ankles are so sore and I am terrified if I go pushing it they will swell. Damn it. I will give it til 3:30/4 and go out again. It is wrong to be in on a day like today!
Can you sit outside? If so, do that!
if not, just take it easy when you walk! Don't worry about walking fast, just go as fast as you can! I think I read here if you sit with your legs/feet raised, the swelling can go down??
I'm going for a pregnancy massage tonight! Can't wait!0 -

I was out for a while, but we went out after the 12-3 window that you shouldn't really have kids out in. But had to come in again since I couldn't stand with the pain with the vein again. So I am sitting down trying to will it to calm down so we can go back out. It is so annoying not being able to stand for too long.
It's only for another short while and hopefully we'll still have the good weather and you'll be able to go on lots of walks wh your boy n little newbie 0 -

Went out in the end when daddy came home. I sat while they ran around. I miss being part of the fun, but better than nothing, just glad to have gotten back out, it is too nice these few days!
My rant is a weird one. My cat was outside my apartment, chilling on the wall. Then some brats who don't even live in the complex shout up to their friend in a high apartment to come out and chase him off the wall. Then they were talking to their friend about why he wasn't running off and said she would hit him with her soccer ball and actually had the nerve to aim it at him!!!! :mad: It took every ounce of my self control not to roar profanities at her. I merely said "what do you think you are doing? Don't you dare hit my cat with that ball" I was thinking a hell of a lot worse. Some parents couldn't raise bread with the baking powder, let alone a child!0 -

I'm not feeling too good. The father has contacted me again saying he will stop asking me for a relationship n thst he wants to meet to discuss the baby. We have discussed some things over text but he says he wants to meet up so he can have his own say. I know that is only fair, but I am just scared of what he wants n what he will say. I will be bringing a friend with me as support. I want to believe him, I want to let my daughter know her dad but I just don't know if I can ever trust him. My head is so confused because I'm trying to not let my guard down and still be wary but at the same time, I'm trying to decide whether to give him the benefit of the doubt again. I think as well I was thinking that she'll be all mine, but if he's voluntarily making an effort, csn i really ignore it?
Just needed to get this of my chest!0 -

Bring a friend that WON'T be taken in by his guff, and discuss maintenance payments by him as well as access. Make it clear that any access handovers will be done in the company of another person (ie, you will never be alone with him) If he genuinely wants a relationship with his child, maintenance shouldn't bother him. If he's using her as an excuse to get to you, he'll back off. Tell him you will go to court so that maintenance/access will be formalised; and tell him that's the only way you can move forward.0 -

While my MIL is a bit better than that I can see where you're coming from. Mine does a lot of those things and gets this awful pinched expression if I disagree with her. Doesn't argue, probably doesn't even mean to do it, but you can see the thoughts going through her head. "Well, I wouldn't do it that way."
We're moving into her house - she's taking a flat - after work has been done on it, and despite the fact that we agreed together which rooms the kids would be in, himself up and forgets after a word with his mum. "She(baby) would be better off in this room. And soandso should go there..." I tried saying that the way she was designing it, the baby's bed (once she's in a bed) would be up against the radiator. Went right over her head. She just replied that it was going to be a much smaller rad.
That kind of a thing annoys me.
But what I really came in here to moan about is the heat. I'm fine during the day. I've been v sensible. Sun screen, hat, both for me and the little one... But to get a full nights sleep. Both because she has the blankets thrown off and wants them back half way through the night, and because I'm so hot I can't sleep... I had a melt down yesterday I was so tired. Then I had a nap. And I was much better. 0 -
