Lockdown, Day 91

Getting Mikey to sleep last night was a minor nightmare! I think he eventually fell asleep just before 3am! But he seems to be coping fine so far today; maybe he will actually sleep tonight!!

He struggled up at 9ish, he was actually dressed at 2am for some reason! But he did get changed again once he had attacked all his presents and recorded his first video with his new tripod! He is determined to be a blogger of some kind! Or is it technically a Vlogger?!?!

I am feeling very proud of myself as I drove to Mums even with all the helpful comments from the co driver in the passenger seat. Mikey and I are threatening to duct tape his mouth if I drive again! I can cope with all the questions and stuff from Mikey, but really do not need the sarcastic comments from my loving husband! I let him drive home as my neck which ahs been painful all day is getting worse. I spent the trip home playing with the screen in my car to connect the bluetooth in the car to my phone! I appeaer to bot have to communication book in my set so I randomly hit bits of the screen until I connected them! Another reason to feel proud of myself I think! But Spotify refused to play whatever I tried - so I guess I need to press a few more bits of screen either in the car or on my phone! There can't be many bits I haven't pressed so far!!

Mikey's request for dinner tonight is KFC, at one point it was McDonalds which, if I'm honest, I would prefer! But you are only 10 once so I guess it is going to be good old, greasy KFC..Right now my head is thudding and my neck is sending shooting pains down my spine. I feel like going to bed as I didn't get to sleep until 5am and woke up at 8. At my age I really need more than 3 hours sleep. I'm also getting a tad peckish as I had a tiny sausage roll and a scone for lunch. I need feeding sooner rather than later!.

Mikey and I 10 years ago, he was a quiet little thing until we got him home; then he decided to exercise his lungs at full volume. My problem is they didn't send a call button for a nurse or midwife home with me! Someone really should invent one to take home with new Mums! And if it could reassure you that a screaming red baby is perfectly normal it would help tremendously!!

How Do I keep Going?

 This week I have totally reached the end of my very frayed tether. I am more exhausted than I have felt for months and I am also feeling isolated, un-needed and unwanted. |Mikey is settled at school, is doing well and making new friends and finding new interests. All I do it listen while he frantically searched for reasons for him feeling f=depressed. When he does come up with something you can guarantee that there is nothing I can do to cure or solve whatever he is worrying about. He also has new people he can talk to so I am certainly no longer needed. I've also had my latest lot of blood tests done. I can't remember my access thing for my results so I can't look at them. My memory is failing even more than usual and I hate this. I'm also in constant pain and I can't do anything that is part of my usual way of living. I really just want all this to end. I have no energy, I can't sleep and even cooking something simple leaves me feeling dead on my feet. All I

Lockdown, Day 90

Definitely thinking backwards today!! 10 years ago Andy had to take me to Hospital for monitoring as I couldn't feel the baby moving and a friend in Scotland (who was also pregnant) told me to get checked! I spent all of the Friday afternoon on a monitor and having blood samples taken. The original plan was for me to go in on Sunday for my induction so I was sent home as they were happy my bump was doing OK and there was nothing to worry about! That was my first experience that I remember of how tired hospital tests make me so I was not in a cooking mood! Dinner ended up being KFC and a tub of Ben & Jerries as I had decided that the bump couldn't put that much weight on in 2 days!  Just as I curled up with my tub the hospital called me and told me to go back the following morning as my blood tests had shown a problem. She did tell me what it was but I honestly can't recall what she said! The plan at that point was to do my induction as soon I arrived, so as I thought I

Worried

 We are now the day before Mikey starts at The North School....all they have done today is worry me even more that this is the wrong place for my son. I know all parents are protective - but he took so long to have and I really do not trust them to look after him properly. We have been provided a timetable which states that his first lesson is PE - Yr 7 parents have been told not to send PE Kit in tomorrow.... Also, he is in group 7x3....but the timetable has him in 7x2. If they can't send the right timetable how can I trust them to look after the most valuable thing I have? The chair of Governors has also sent a letter about the school joining the Swale Academies Trust. From what I have heard about this on local news I do not want my child at a school under their control. How can I get him out of there? Since I started writing this |I have e-mailed the Head asking why everything is so disorganised the day before they start and have said it will not help kids with autism as everyth
