Just an update

Well for those of you who have been reading my posts and what-not, thought it was time for an update ...

We've finally had our baby boy - 24/07/11. He was tiny (2510g) and had 2 knots in his cord ... but was fine and healthy after he finally got breathing after birth ... The nurses and my SO thought we were going to lose him, due to him being so blue and not breathing. We've also had to go to formula feeding as I dried up with breastmilk Sad

Update ... For those who are interested ...

Last night, SO and I were talking and he said in our conversation, that he needs someone to "push" him with helping to discipline his kid. He does understand that his kid does need it ... He has no discipline at SO's parents place (which is where he goes Thursday afternoons and Fridays (when SO works)), from what we can gather, he has no discipline when he's with BM/on BM's time.
He keeps saying he is greatful that I've helped him with a few things, namely, getting him to sleep in his own room (which is what WE got him to do when we first got together).

I want to try and work this out ... I NEED advice please .... ANYTHING!!!!

I really want this relationship to try and work between SO/FDH and myself. Not only because of the kids, but also because I do love him...

He has been trying hard lately to try and understand everything with all the stress he's been under at work at such. I can understand that, but I'm sick of being put last and the last 2-3 weeks, I have really been at him!

No counseling as yet, as we cannot afford it right now ... But I do see a psychiatrist every baby appointment, which are every 2 weeks.

Update ...

Well, the weekend went ok ... He came out to mum and dads (half hour away) on the Saturday, unfortunately, he brought with him the only person who I didn't want to see - his brat. Mum was outside and saw them drive in, so she came up the front stairs and knocked on the door - I opened it and mum said someone's here, so I said "I don't want him". The whole morning and basically the day, I didn't talk to him or anything, I didn't find him worth it, I was over everything.

Update on my weekend "away"

Well, mum and dad came to pick me up yesterday - but little did I know that SO was going to come home for lunch and stay home ...
I didn't tell him I was planning on going away this weekend, I was going to wait till I was gone then text him so he could ring me when he wasn't busy at work (thought he would appreciate not being told about something as much as I "appreciate" not being told certain things).
