Seems as though we move from one crappy place to another. My last apartment was nice, but it was 8hrs away. We moved back to our hometown and got settled into a nice big three bedroom house [it's almost 60 years old... yikes!] but everything's been going wrong since. Our heat didn't work from September-December... and boy does it get cold here at night. Now that we got that fixed, there's a major leak in the ceiling in the upstairs master bedroom. The nursery would be right beside that room and our landlord said he can't fix it until the spring as he needs to get onto the roof, which is covered in snow.

DH and I both agreed that it's time to move out into a new place because we don't want the huge wet spot in the ceiling to start molding, our baby shouldn't be around that and it has already ruined the floors. Grrrrr!!!! I hate moving--- it's just such a hassle. But, I want to do whatever is healthier for our little girl.

Do you ladies ever notice that ALL the bad things happen at once? lol... that isn't fair, is it?

We had a nightmare within a year we have lived in 4 houses now (this being 4th) this one is 200 years old - nice but for a couple of reasons considering house 5 only if we do we're seriously thinking of getting our own place now!

eek!! four places in a year? that's a lot of moving! poor you lol, I hate the packing and the unpacking. hopefully house five will be the final for you.

did you move when you were pregnant? how was that-- did you find it more stressful or more difficult?

Basically landlord was selling (house 1) but we wanted to move areas (from staffordshire to wrexham). The house we were moving to and broke our neacs finding screwed us good an proper and had to find somewhere else quickly which wasn't easy so we moved into a house for a short period (house 2) in the area we wanted to move to only that short period lasted 2 months in which the guy now wanted his house back (which was fair it was not suitable and really was only short term and only got to move near because his parents lived in it before us) so we had to move again but with finding no where in 2 bloody months we had to accept a house that we didn't want AGAIN but unpack this time which was house 3 and intended on not moving again until after Caitlin some time this year only our landlord knew we wouldn't stay there and they rent other properties this one came up (3 bed) and they offered it to us first so we thought sod it and moved (now in house 4). It was hard esspec as I couldn't help much and the packing alone wasn't easy for me it was exhausting *but* I can say now I am VERY glad we did it when we did ...it would be worse now!
