just wondering did any of you get a chance to see what my little girl looks like yet?……

congrats on your pregnancy,i hope you have a nice easy pregnancy & sail through it.the women on this site are great for advice,im always picking their brains!.

i wish i could go to baby groups but doctors said im not allowed to take Hailey to places that are enclosed with lots of people, (i cant go to a shopping centre or anywhere there are people really) we have to limit her contact with other children etc….i mean its my nephews first birhtday party next week & we cant bring her to that,which is…[Read more]

dogs really do become part of the family & it is heartbreaking when they die,even when you get a new dog they can never take the place of the old one as they all have their individual personalities & can be such characters.

I hope you have many happy years with Joey

if you are planning on breast feeding to begin with I know they reccommend tommee tippee as it is easier for the baby to go from breast to bottle as the teat is boob shaped.the bottle is also handy to hold as it has curved contours where your hand goes.the tommee tippee electric steriliser is big & a lot can fit in it aswell

saying all that Avent…[Read more]

That sounds like you had a really stressful week.i know that all my friends said that as soon as their kids went to creche they had a new bug nearly every week as they are surrounded by so many kids,so maybe thats where your child picked bug up.in saying that all my friends whos kids are in creche say that they love it so maybe in a week or two…[Read more]

thats great news lynn,delighted to hear she is on the mend.it sounded like a scarey experience for you all.

Sabbi i dont think you sounded like you were moaning just telling it how it is,your daughter is having a bad few days & i totally feel your pain it is completely exhausting when it seems if they are left alone for more than 5 minutes they have a melt down,i have to say DEEP BREATHS help!!

Myself & my partner are going to go out for lunch on…[Read more]

All my positive thoughts are being sent to your sister, her baby & family.hospital staff are very skilled and im sure they will have her better & home with her baby before too long.

Hi, I have had a mixture of good & bad days with Hailey since i posted last.Shes having quite an upset day today,crying & feeding a lot,i think maybe she is going through a growth spurt.But i feel able to cope with her as before my partner went to work for the day i went for a walk on the beach for an hour on my own &i think the fresh air…[Read more]

thanks for all your tips and advice,i will act on them.it just really is so up and down at the moment,nearly from hour to hour,sometimes i feel im on top of everything then in the next hour i feel like im a complete failure.i spent a few hours yesterday away from hailey & my partner took care of her,i just really needed a break from her,i felt…[Read more]

Hi Libby, thanks for your enquiry about Hailey,its nice of you to think of her.all the health professionals are happy with her progress,so far her weight has gone up at every weigh in so thats positive.we are to go back to temple street next week so we should know more then.

i hope you get an appointment soon with accord & that it helps you work through your problems & that you come out the other side a stronger & happier couple.

look after yourself,remember you are a very important person to your family & friends & things will get better,keep your chin up & let us know how you are getting on

sorry to hear you are having a hard time,i agree with the other ladies about you talking to aware or the samaritains as especially with depression if you let something like this get in on top of you it could make you very ill,you need to try and stay strong & talk to a good friend or family member if you dont feel comfortable talking to a…[Read more]

the thing is temple street are only letting parents in at the moment,due to all the flus & winter bugs around the place so no one else can sit with Hailey bar me at the moment,hopefully my partner will be better next week that way at least i will have someone with me,its very tough being there alone with her when things are going wrong.

am so so sorry that you are having to go through this at the moment,my thoughts are with you and your partner at this very difficult time xx

Thank you so much for all your offers of help,its much appreciated but we are ok, family & friends are helping out with meals,washing & lifts.

hey ladies,by looking at all your replies to my post looks like i am far from alone with this problem occuring during pregnancy.

had a really long day in the hospital was there for 6 hours & had blood pressure,urine tests,trace was put on the baby,then had a scan to check the fluid around the baby & also had to have an internal examination to…[Read more]

Thanks ladies for posting all the positives on becoming a parent,we are both so excited & probably nervous in equal measures about what lies ahead of us,we have both wanted this for many years & in a lot of ways i cant believe its actually going to happen,even though it feels like i have been pregnant FOREVER!!….anyway the countdown has…[Read more]
