oh dear kelly...do you think you will have another? i cant afford another one, im really up sh*t creek financially. so i will just hav to go insane with bump envy and broodiness.
good luck anna! you did well to work til now! i know what you mean, i find myself often only having contact with jamie and freyja for days sometimes, you should join baby groups. i say that, but i havent joined any myself. im too shy.

I do definitely want more, but I'd like to wait at least 2 years - it wouldn't really be fair on Oliver to have another now, I want to be able to give him all my time and attention while he's little.
i have to agree, i think its good to concentrate on the one baby, and try to hold off til they a wee bit bigger. some of the girls on one of my preg forums who were due in the same month as me are trying again. i think they mental, but im still jealous lol.

yeah, i was told the pain is good as its contracting back to normal. its amazing how quickly it returns to its original size. it does hurt, i wont lie to you lol. but maybe u will be one of the lucky ones.

that was the part i hated about midwives visiting at home btw....they feel your belly. so say they come every day for 10 days after birth...every day they want to feel your belly. and they often bring students...who also want to feel your belly. and you just want to say...
F*CKIN LEAVE IT ALONE!!!

No bump envy here, haha. Perhaps we'll have another in a few years though maybe.. Tummy muscles are different for everyone but pilates are apparently very good for them ladies. Anna, enjoy reading once you're off work? How To Be A Happy Mum is a lovely read :)

My heart just needs his smile, that i can't forget, like so melancholy a kiss.
i need to do something about my tummy im beginning to look pregnant again. i took part in a thread on another site which was basically 'come on girls lets see those post preggy bellies' and i am tempted to post a couple of the pics here but i dont want to upset the pregnant women and im not sure i have the courage anyway LOL. i look in worse shape than i did a week after birth which is weird...i actually look like im in the early stages of pregnancy again which isnt cool. jamies like well i did tell you to go swimming. yes jamie, il just leave freyja to fend for herself at home while i go out for a swim. men. i told him i didnt have the time, he said i have plenty. i think he doesnt quite get how time consuming and how much work being a mother is. and breastfeeding is hard too. but he wouldnt know about that when hes snoring his wellies off at 5am when im feeding her bleary eyed!

or 2am as was the case last night. i dont know what happened, but i hadnt even got off to sleep yet and she was wanting fed. he was working away last night, blissfully unaware, doing a sleepover shift.

i think your probably right hun! i left her once with him from 4pm and when i came back at 10.30 she was still awake and he was feeding her. he said he got on fine, except for when she screamed in the shop when he was buying beer :-|
the second time i left her with him, i went out bout 6.30 and she was due a bath at 8pm, in bed by 9pm so he didnt have much time to get stressed or that. but then i had left him instructions.
it is hard though, he was climbing the walls in the 2 weeks he was off work and we were waiting for freyja arriving. how did he think i felt!!! and its much the same now, there are times when i can go days without contact with anyone but freyja and jamie. that isnt easy.

I know I shuld go to baby groups so that I'm not too alone, but I am really shy! I couldn't even bring myself to go to ante natal classes which is probably a bit daft. i think Ernie has the intention to help but at times he's not that practical. Like it can take him a few hours to clean the kitchen floor. Also, he loves his sleep so night times wil be interesting!
Sorry, i didn't mean to sound rude or anything.
All i've been hearing the last couple of weeks is people complaining about there blokes not helping out etc and it's just rather annoying, especially when you have to do everything yourself because you're a single parent.
Sorry.
It's so easy to get lost in constantly having to present
whatever face you believe a person wants to see rather than your own
its round 2 with freyja tonight. she had me up half the night last night which is unusual. i finally got her to sleep some at 7am by feeding her on my side, we both fell asleep and didnt get up til midday. i thought she would be ok tonight as she seemed happy today not unwell but its happened again. crying when put down, passing wind and crying, even when shes fallen asleep and i have put her down she wakes up and cries. a long night ahead and not feeling too chuffed about it.
