Hi. My darling mother came up today delcaring she is worried about me and she spoke to my sister (who is a childrens nurse) and they both think i have depression! Their reasons being, because since the birth of my son 18 days ago, ive been rushing around like a blue @rsed flie. Yesterday i didnt stop working untill 8-9pm. Admittedly i have also lost my appetitie, and ive gone to a size 10 already. Now my justification is that i am now a single mother of 5, ive had absolutely NO help whatsoever (ok mum a tiny bit), and since i came home from hosp my house has been over run with fleas! the kids have been stressed and ive had to basically get over the C section asap and get on with it. So yes perhaps i am stressed, but depressed? so now ive been worrying about it all day and am close to tears. Im already on anti depressents as i have a history of PND when i have boys, so planned ahead and have been taking them for 5 months or so. To be honest i feel so resentful as ive had no time to rest and be pampered the first 2 weeks or so of his birth-ive had to get up and carry on like nothing happened and then im told im depressed. lol perhaps i am..help?? xx
oooooh that's it then off to the funny farm wiv you did she like her cold cuppa tea?? haha, anyway i know what u mean wiv detting a diagnosis it's not that u want to put a giant label on them like some people think but it would just give you an explination wouldn't it and then u can get the right help for everyone's sake, perhaps if the school start to realise there's something going on wiv max they might be able to push it a bit more the drs n specialists seem to listen to the schools more than the parents as if the teacher knows more about your child than u do !! it's probably pretty normal for your period to be very heavy this time but also very uncomfy kinda like the flood gates have opened. lol!
luckily i notice kettle was luke warm before i gave her the cup lol..felt such an idiot! my brothers lil boy is 2 months younger than max and max hates him with a passion..the only reason i can think of for this is that lil harry used to crawl after him when they were 1!! max never forgets and now has an obsession against poor harry. consequently max cries and whinges whenever harry comes up and his parents think max is a pain and dont like coming over. i KNOW max has problems but because he hasnt been 'labled' my brother just thinks max is a baby. So now me and mum tell everyone that max does have problems as the kids dont understand him. gosh its hard!
its annoying..when you need help with a childs behavior-there is no one there. when you dont want help, they dont leave you alone! if i were you id keep banging on about Ollie..for his sake and yours. wish someone would aknowledge max's probs instead of saying he's introverted! sister turned up early-prob hoping to catch me out lol..house was a dump, i looked a mess and i made her tea but forgot to boil kettle which just 'proved' im losing it lol!!! but i know im not..in fact i flipping came on today, so no wonder i was losing plot last week. only thing is its soooo heavy!! hope thats normal? replied to ur induce post..i might do the period post next lol xxx

hi hun hows ya day been did your sis come n assess you?? lol!!! don't know about you but wen i tell people about olivers behaviour i always feel slightly guilty cause i don't want them to think badly of him as he isn't a horrid boy (well not always!!) i finally decided enuf was enuf last yr and asked dr and health visitor for help only to be brushed off and offered nothing it took me ages to ask cause i felt a huge sense of guilt and it just got me nowhere so we just manage now but he's so hard to deal wiv and even though i feel terible for saying it if it wasn't for ollie the house would be so much calmer and relaxed, oh well he might grow out of it soon i hope! by the time he does i might not have anything left though he's broken my sterio this weekend by kicking it wen he don't get what he wants and already had to replace the telly wen we only had it a couple of months cause he smashed the screen luckily insurance covered it but lifes a constant battle wiv him. Anyway sorry for going off on a moan!! anyway i don't suppose you've eva been induced have u cause i aint and i'm wondering what it'll be like they said they'll probably just break my waters instead of using the gel but i thought u had to be in labour b4 they cud do that huuuum i feel a new post coming on lol. speak soon. xxxxx
