March Chit Chat

You look great DM. I love the carseat cover. I have been debating about buying one of those. I did not have one with my other 2, but I am considering it for this one. Unfortunately I can't sew or I would make one myself

Z I hope all goes well with your heart monitor. A friend of mine had to use one of those a few years ago, but fortunately all turned out fine.

Mocha my husband has never gotten up to help with any baby stuff at night. I have a friend whose husband gets up and changes the baby's diaper and then brings the baby in to be nursed. I guess I should have trained mine better

I'm sure my husband thinks the biggest benefit of me breastfeeding our children is that he doesn't have to wake up during the night! If he changed the baby's nappy he'd only come and ask me a dozen questions about how to do it anyhow so it's much easier just to do it myself! He does other stuff instead though so I really don't mind. He'll do most of the looking after of the older children when the baby arrives and take them out for lots of walks so I can rest and he's pretty good at doing the washing and ironing - he does the boys' school uniforms every morning

Thanks lobella x

lobella - yeah, I always tell people you can't teach old dogs - or old husbands - new tricks. I should have gotten out the whip and made him help back when my twins were born, but I didn't. Now it's too late. It didn't help that with ds3 I used cloth diapers - he had a perfect excuse not to help with diapering since he had no idea how to use them! He'll be even worse with this little girl because not only will she be in cloth too, but she'll have confusing girly bits he'll be afraid to clean!

Z - my dh is like that too the odd time he changes a diaper. If (heaven forbid) there's a poop, it's like a major emergency. He starts calling from the nursery for me to bring plastic bags, etc. and often dumps ds into a bath to clean because he finds wiping the poop so daunting. Um...I clean 1-2 poops a day and can do it blindfolded with one hand tied behind my back!

That cracked me up Mocha, my DH is exactly the same shouting for the bags etc!
