Hi all , I don’t know if you remember me as I don’t post very often more of a reader , I lost my firstborn during child birth and now have a one and a two year old life is certainly busy , I was just looking for some advice from anyone with more than one child do you find your youngest is harder work , my Freya bites gets so pissed off doesn’t like to be told no , she still not walking at 14 months, I know all children are different and develop different, thank you in advance x
Hi Fiona I don’t remember you but my memory is appalling so don’t be offended. I’m sorry to hear about your first child my heart goes out to you xxx you’re two daughters are beautiful, I also had mine close together one is 4 and one is 2 and I would agree that the youngest was more work than my oldest maybe this is because we already have the added stress of a child already I don’t know but he didn’t sleep and has only just started to settle during the night. In regards to your youngest not waking and her temper have you spoken to your health visitor sometimes children do develop at their own pace but they’re obviously qualified to give you that advice
Hi mummy to olly and Charlie, thank you it’s still sometimes hard as I think I should have a one two and three year old driving me crazy and thank you for the reply that’s ok I don’t take any offence I wasn’t actually in your group I was on the June 17 but always warned more to July 17 as I thought you where all more supportive, yeah maybe I will talk to the h/v about it , I think my problem is I’m comparing both girls and there milestones and I probably shouldn’t, ah bless you with the sleep thing sometimes I think I good sleep is all we need to get us through the day , I have been really lucky both my girls was sleeping through the night from 10 weeks old but they are bad at other things ha ha
I think there’s a lot of pressure on children to hit milestones and when they don’t do it at the ages HV say we panic but it’s really only a tick box exercise children develop in their own time and 14 months is still only young my youngest walked when he was around 14/15 months old and as long as she can crawl etc she’s getting herself where she needs to be lol so she’s probably not any rush to start walking. Im glad you feel able to join our thread it is a fantastic group and you’re more than welcome to be a part of it we’ve all supported each over over past 2 years and they’re a great bunch of mummies to be able to confide in. I had a miscarriage In September 2016 and was lucky to catch with Charlie in the October so I don’t really understand how devastated you must feel, every year must be a reminder of what you haven’t experienced With your child but just think of your daughters as gifts from them and although their sibling is not here they are very much a part of your family and should be spoken about regularly xxxx
We had ollie two year review before we came away and he’s a little behind in a few areas so they are going to arrange a child play and speak specialists to come and arrange some activities with him but she wasn’t really concerned. She said after having a long illness like he did there’s so surprise he’s very slightly behind but she said he’s got very good understanding.
We we are in Spain at the moment with my family ... I thought I ovulated early this month so I’ve been expecting my AF for a week now And even if I didn’t ovulate early I should have started by now.... I had a few hints of bleeding but after me and hubby DTD (sorry TMI) .. I’m hoping to get a test from the pharmacy later but kinda hard when I’m with my family .. we shall see
Wow that is a good strong positive. Hubby had the snip Friday and I’ve been in mourning ever since 😂. Can’t wait to follow yours and Charlie’s journeys xx
