I've just found out that going to Glasgow from Luton is a £60 round trip by plane, but I've been driving there for years filling up four times at £50+ a time, why did I not know this? so pissed off at myself. 
Fire sticks, they're so bloody expensive and only really last about 2 years.
My throat is sore AGAIN. Give it 2 days I’ll be drowning in snot
Yeah, Mr Lolz gave me a bug last wkend and yesterday I thought great’s cleared up but now I’m coughing up great big phlegm balls
Take loads of echinacea and vitamin c, you might be able to reduce the symptoms.
Thanks I have never heard of echincea but I will google it right away. I hate feeling ill

husband gets ill so I can guarantee everything will come to me too When you write a comment on a thread and tattlers don’t read it properly, then quote you back ‘yeah but xyz’ but you’ve already addressed that in your comment.
Anyway, I’m in a mood
Anyway, I’m in a mood
I have a five year old and a five day old baby. Husband is great at pulling his weight and helping out but for the last two days we've had people just showing up unannounced to see the baby. I'm already exhausted with lack of sleep. Husband steps and does all the running around making tea/coffee and snacks for them but I'm not in the mood for socialising and I'm left to chat with them and answer endless questions about how the birth went. I'm currently locked in the bathroom crying because his uncle and the girlfriend have said they'd pop in 'later on'. Just 'later on' , no specific time. Husband messaged back saying we're having a terrible day settling the baby and could they come another time. Response was 'we may as well come today as we're in the area' Wtf??!! I wish everyone would just leave us the duck alone.
Please, please be firm, get your husband to tell them no, and don't worry about appearing rude or antisocial. They're being selfish twats for not realising that today is not a good day for you.
If you need an excuse, tell them the midwife is coming round to do the baby's blood test and weight, and you don't want anyone else there at the same time as it's upsetting enough for the baby (it really isn't, but
) Try to get some rest, take the battery out of the doorbell, and if they turn up, take the baby upstairs for a "nap" so they don't get what they want anyway!
Oh you poor thing. Definitely make your husband push back. Not convenient today etc, remember no is a complete sentence!
I hope you and baby are doing well.
I hope you and baby are doing well.
Those annoying fuckers who stick their nose in your business.. like duck off! Focus on your own tit show of a life.
Firstly, congratulations on your new baby.
Why can’t people take no for answer? It’s not convenient is another no, today is not a good day is a no.
I'd message back and say ‘aw that’s a shame, let us know when you’re back in the area’ It really irks me when people think your time is their time.
Urrgghhhh soo sorry people are doing this. You really should be firm here. You can’t do something to suit everyone else especially at this time 5 days post birth!
Thank you

I think its just the tiredness getting to me. The uncle isn't coming now which is a relief but you're right, we do need to be more firm with people.

Congratulations on the arrival of your little one. That is definitely the last thing you want to deal with 5 days post birth. Why do people find it hard to accept that you don’t want any visitors right now. I
Really hope you get some peace from the visitors.
I really for you with this, I had so many visitors it broke me. I know people mean well but honestly I was at the point of tears when people dropped in. Second baby the door was locked and we were really firm, no visits until we are ready and we’ll let you know. You and your husband need to protect yourselves and your own energy and sanity right now.
Tell them simply you will not be having anymore visitors over for now. When you are ready you will let them know when they can come over.
People being loud in the morning. Some of us are trying to have a lie-in as we’re not at work!!
