its so hard to watch them in so much pain knowing theres nothing you can do about it, it sucks he's really perked up now though and hes not half as hot as he was earlier

must get down to some serious house cleaning today. the swine flu is back in our town so we have stopped going to all of the baby & toddler groups for now, so i have no excuse for not doing it!! cleaning is so unnatural for me lol, i think im going to have to devise a rota and stick to it! i love having a clean tidy house but obviously not enough to actually clean

i had ewcm yesterday but it's almost like my body is gearing up for ovulation but never quite gets there

maybe you should start temping hun, that might give you a clue?

i had it for a few days before i got the +opk.... but its gone now... no more since yesterday, i really hope this was it, i am assuming it was, as i had the ewcm and the pains i get....

i cant do the temping thing, cos i dont sleepwell enough....i am up and down all night..since i lost baby in july..... my nights are too disturbed.....

i have a few friends, whose husbands do thier cleaning and laundry etc...AND go out to work etc.... and these women have the cheek to tell me they need a break.....grrrrrrr...
i am glad little fella is perkingup a bit , poor little man...its horrible isnt it?


brrrr..the wind is whipping up a storm here, its really cold....... not raining yet, butit was a little while ago, and the raindrops are like ice cold......i dont mind the cold weather to be honest, but the rain P***es me off......

right here i go , gonna make a

Erin...how was your "potta" earlier... i havent had a real cup of coffee for yonks, i dont really drink it much, more a tea girl.....

bye bye for now girls

btw that means that the husbands go out to work as well as doing the housework..... personally i think thats bad....xxxxxx butmaybe i am old fashioned

^it is a little old fashioned BUT that doesnt mean you are wrong! I do think the housework should be divvied up by who is most available to do it, and its more traditional for the man to work full time so it seems fitting that the lady does more in the house. In our house, i work 20hrs a week and he works 50 so i do the majority of the cleaning, hoovering etc but he does but he does bits and pieces like the dishes on the weekends and he always tidies up in the evening whilst im putting jack to bed. Because he wants to pull his weight it makes me want to do more for him, you know? He appreciates what i do which is great

oh and my poor little man is just in such a state now keeps flushing hot and cold and didnt want his lunch because his mouth is so sore. hes just fallen asleep on me for the second time today, he never has more than one nap! poor little soul i so wish i didnt have to work tonight, i dont want to leave him

ah no poor little soldier... i hope he feels better tomorrow, looking like you may be in for a bad night ay???

hope everybody is ok...its fierce quiet in here today....
i think we have a lady or two that joined us almost ready to test.... how's it going girls???

you are right... what i said is a bit old fashioned, but these women are at home all day... i dunno.....

i would love someone to help me out a bit....

right i am off to have alittle sew for the evening, theres footy on, so dh wont miss me....

bye bye for today


IM_MI... i hope Jack is ok and you get some sleep....

Hehe laura if you are old fashioned then so am i! i like it when women are confident enough in their status to be able to slot into a more traditional role without feeling like they are 'letting the side down'. Women and men have their own individual talents and not everyone is the same. Our family would fall to pieces if i was the main wage-earner and dan was the house husband! I couldnt take being away from my baby and my home. I think its really slack that those women dont do anything around the house when they dont work and their husbands do, i mean dont they want to look after them? DH works so hard and never complains about it, i like to cook him a nice dinner when he gets home and look after him.

Jack is much better now and sleeping soundly. checked him when i got home from work and he doesnt feel feverish at all! i think i might sleep in his room tonight on the spare mattress, just so i can keep an eye on him.

hiya..
im_mi...how did your little soldier sleep??? hope he ( and you) got a restful night...

well, we were pleasantly woken up at 5.30am, with dd singing happy birthday to herself at the end of our bed... very early, and i wasnt ready to wake up..but sooo cute..blesss her, cant believe she is 6.....

just had alovely little chat with dd in OZ... on skype, she is doing well, its getting very hot over there, i dont envy her the heat with a pregnant belly....

well, it looks pleasant outside.... not surebout how hot or cold it is, althogh i had to put my big old fluffy dressing gown on when i got out of bed this morning, it was chilly, but, on the other hand, it was mega mega early....
gotta make a choc button cake today ..... i love baking....oooh i found a great cookie recipe the other day..gonna try it out after i havebeen grocery shopping, will let ya know how it goes... i always make the teachers presents at xmas, last year i made some lovely coconut truffles and so this yeari thought i would do cookies or shortbread.... will taste test this recipe and see what i decide...

sorry hear i go again the boring old laura waffle.... where did our new ladies go??? i scared em away....

hope evrybody is ok...

lotsa love
