March11, glad you're feeling a bit better! Yes I too am still in a state of disbelief. I don't think it will hit me til he's in my arms.NyquistFreak wrote: »So with all ye'r talk of home made knitted things, I got out my needles and some multicoloured wool that's so soft it's probably made of clouds...making a little blankie for the baby, its not particularly not-girlie, but I actually don't care. Like baby will care less either :cool:
This really makes me want to start knitting again (haven't done so since I was 11). I may have to re-learn it though. Anyone have good tips on beginner books for this?I felt like a right nonce, but it saved me a load of time and a lot of discomfort. I, of course, hammed up the hobbling once I got off
There's definitely no harm in asking
I was wondering if I make a big show of huffing & puffing around the place will a cart guy notice me. I should probably seek one out.kildareash wrote: »Have a great time with your sis, hope your spoiled for your birthday. Imagine, on your next birthday you have a 9/10 month old baby!
:eek: I realised today that being pregnant & having a baby makes me feel more of a grown-up. Now I know there's all these 16 And Pregnant young ones but still.0 -

Saurelin you have what's called a passive aggressive boss - also known as a tit!
No point quitting before you get your maternity leave but might be worth looking at alternative job prospects for when you are due back as he doesn't sound like someone anyone would want to work for esp with a young baby at home! 0 -

Back in the bloody stupid horrible hospital I hate the hospital and I do not want to be here (and yes I know I sound like a petulant child!!)... I fainted I think and woke up face and belly down on my bedroom floor so I'm just being observed over night... They did a trace on babs and she's flying it so I'm not worried in that regard. Anymore. Obviously earlier I was inconsolable before I heard heartbeat.
March I'm delighted your feeling abit better... You must have got such a fright.
Saurelin how you haven't killed your boss is beyond me!
Also Tralee is suffering with a fly infestation and there are flies everywhere including the hospital... Very irritating

Oh Cyning that's crap...I know I would have been upset if I needed to be observed overnight! My partner packed PJs for me just in case when I had to go in but I'm so glad I didn't have to stay in!
Add flies to that & it's a nightmare!
Glad your little one is doing well though 0 -

Hey Java, try a hot compress over the ear for a minimum of 30 minutes. I find the easiest way is to have 2-3 damp flannels, and keep heating them in the microwave and swapping them over.
My mum swears by warm olive oil and garlic, but personally I've tried to avoid putting food in my ears since an unfortunate incident with a pea when I was 4
Cyning, delighted to hear babs is doing well, you must have got such a fright.
I can't imaging waking up on the ground like that!0 -

Javagal do you have one of those pregnancy pillows? My doc said if I have trouble sleeping to at least put a pillow between my legs & under bump as it should help. At the moment I'm sleeping ok...better since the little one moved from transverse to breech
Cyning I'm sure you are delighted to be away from the flies aside from everything else! That's really not great esp in a hospital :rolleyes: Delighted your little one is well...you have a great little battler there 0 -

Doesn't help my oh has severe sleep walking and nearly every night he tries to find where the dog hid zoe lol!

Oh java, that did make me giggle! Hope ur feeling better soon.
R you tired and can't sleep and cant get comfy or just can't sleep? Maybe it's your body preparing for night feeds! Although I'm not sure if I believe that one myself.
I wake every time I turn in the bed with the pain in my back and pelvis! But it's just a short pain and I do go straight back to sleep.
Cyning, glad your ok and home. Must be a relief. Fingers crossed you can stay away now
Going to have a look on the M&P website now (anything but work!)0 -
Bought our crib and mattress in the M&P sale so saved €30ish - been meaning to buy it for ages so delighted I was a lazy ass until now can pick that up next Friday when we are in Dublin so at least the baby will have a bed! Now to get some sheets, blankets etc :rolleyes:
Bed, car seat & buggy & a few clothes...what more does a baby need Seriously need to get moving on the other stuff but feel better that the sleeping situation is sorted

Sounds like your getting there, sure when you think about it babies used to sleep in the bottom drawer years ago!0 -
Getting there slowly bonus in that the soon to be in laws are paying us for it so I'm just doing the shopping that's the best kind!
The bottom drawer used to be a lot more stable than the bottom drawer we have need to get a set of drawers with possibly a changer on top so that we have somewhere to put the increasing clothes pile
Has anyone looked at a tall boy unit? I imagine it would be handy for diff sized bodysuits/sleep suits. Must try have a look at one in person 0 -
