    Oooh... Poor Joshua! I'm betting he's not so happy about that!
  • Jan 29, 2007, 10:47 AM
    JoeCanada76
    Nope, Was not happy at all. Even before the needles as soon as we undressed him and laid him down on the doctor table he started bawling even before hand. I think he knew what was coming up. We gave him a little bit of tylenol before the shots.

    Well, that table was COLD! Jeesh! I wouldn't have been happy either!

    Hope he feels better soon!

    Ya, he is kind of cranky right now but he will get over it. My wife fed him right after the shots as a way of calming down which worked pretty good. Oh, you he has started his teething process too. Double wammy.

    Well I am going for a nap before work.

    That was pretty bad CBW. I wish to heck I never looked at that darn one. I was at work, and I have mounds to do, but I felt I couldn't just walk away from it.

    All I kept thinking about was those 3 babies. Just killed me.

    I worry sometimes how stable these people are. Oh anyway, had me shaken just a bit.

    Many hugs to all.

    You know... I don't have a problem with abortion. Every person's life is different, and so are every person's choices. I have no right to judge (I'm not God, after all!) someone else's choices.

    I don't condone the use of abortion as birth control (three abortions is obviously birth control)... but consenting to sex does NOT mean consenting to pregnancy.

    I've faced the choice, and decided that it wasn't the route I could go... but I was also extremely grateful that I had the right to choose or not to choose.

    I think that anyone who hasn't faced that choice has no idea how hard it is to make (for MOST people, anyway). Regardless what you decide to do, you've scarred yourself for life.

    That guy did take scum to a new level, though.

    Hi Synnen,

    Exactly why I couldn't say what I was thinking, because I was never in that situation. But boy, one word did come to mind when I was reading it. And see, it was drilled in our heads both at school and at home... judge not... and I do live by that, I try to, that's why I had to switch off to what I was taught. Oh boy. Just awful.

    But here's a hug for you. {... }

    Hi honey :)

    Tell it like is girl :). Oh Laura what a mess and that saddest part is, he didn't expect that from us at all. I don't think he got how vile his actions were. He does now though, or at least I hope.

    I got so hung up on that stinkin smile face on his post, I'm laughing about it now, somewhat, but it was driving me crazy, reading those words of his, and that stupid smiling face on his post!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. I honestly think my brain did that on purpose, because I couldn't handle what I was reading.

    The BEST thing for his wife is to get away from him and start a fresh life. Oh boy.

    Now every time I see two bricks together, I will LMAO and think OUCH! LOL. The best way is the Laura way!!

    I have this gut feeling, don't ask me why, that is wife will be glad to be rid of him. Just a feeling I have. Maybe it's just a hope that I have that she won't be hurt. I can be a DUH sometimes.

    Lots of love and hugs

    If I were her Christine id be thankfull I was in a different country and the kids didn't have that much contact in the first place because as far as I'm concerned that man doesn't deserve her or them.

    Gggggrrrrr darn men huh
  • Jan 29, 2007, 03:19 PM
    Allheart
    And Laura she may be. He may be so disillusioned. Maybe she wants nothing to do with him.

    And hey, he wasn't alone, he had help from that girlfriend of his! The whole thing is just so stomach turning.

    Like they say, you think you got troubles. Cripes!

    How was your day otherwise!! I did okay with the urges today (until I read the smiley face post), but the urges are lessining a little. Not as fierce.
  • Jan 29, 2007, 03:24 PM

    Keep it up hunny your doing wonderfully do you feel proud?? Because you sure should be you are amazing you are wonderful and special and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!!

    Thanks Laura. So much. Smiling hugely.

    Your very special to me. :)

    Proud? Well, I shouldn't have picked the darn things up to start with. But I am glad.

    Thanks so much.

    Lots of hugs to you.

    As far as Joshua goes he is still not himself. He has been crying a lot since yesterday. My wife said there was a bruise on his leg, and when I came home this morning big swollen and red and it is huge. I was very surprised this happened because never had any problems with the first shots. These shots are exactly the same. The doctor used that bacterial stuff before giving the needle. Never seen that used instead of alcohol. Another thing the doctor asked is how much we bath him. Both my wife and I were curious why he would ask that question. His outfit was wet, but not dirty. Wet from all that extra syliva from teething. Anyway, I am sure he will be all right, just curious on why he has such a bad reaction this time and last time had no problem.

    I will be on later. Take care everybody.

    What the heck did I miss yesterday? Joe I'm sorry to hear about joshua's day at the doctors. I' d call the doc again and have him check the red bump. Especially if he's had the same shots as before. You could try rubbing it with an ice cube wrapped in a wash cloth. That might help. I'd give him tylenol again to help soothe and comfort him. It'll help with the teething too. Poor little guy.
    My 11 year old son had a tetenus shot 2 weeks ago and it took me and the nurse to hold him down. So I feel for you.
    Laura, kiss little madam for me the little darling.
    My first valentines day present after I got married was morning sickness. A box of godiva chocolates would've done the trick.

    Luve ya's Beth.
    Ps I'll be running in and out today with mr. chippers, so I'll try to keep up. I'm an old lady after all.

    Wow, I was surprised on how much I missed yesterday too.

    Thank you Beth,

    My wife goes to this group today. Meeting with other new mothers and the nurse is the one that is the lead person there. So I reminded and said that it is important that Joshua gets checked out by the nurse while he is there.

    Hi again :)

    Boss will be late today, coworker out sick – So I got be quick..

    Hope all of you are doing well today. CBW – hope I didn't offend anyone on that thread. I have a very screwy head. 1) Sometimes I worry that people will hurt themselves, if you know what I mean. Sometimes that worries me. 2) I honest to heaven don't know how he lives with himself. That's why I recommended he see some sort of clergy. I just couldn't cope with all of that on my own. Even though it was his own doing. I was just wondering if maybe someone or something brought him to AMHD to help change his ways. Like Divine Intervention or something. Sorry, I'm rambling.

    But love me anyway okay :). Just feel very bad for Mr. Allheart, imagine having to live with this head.

    Chippers, Synnen & Joe – Hugs to you as well :)

    Love,
    Screwy Allheart

    Allheart,

    Honestly, you should not be afraid of somebodies reaction and I will tell you why. In the real world. It is a lot more harsher then our words here. In the real world it would be a lot harder for him to face up to the people he screwed with. I feel that reality is needed to some people and a high dose of it.

    You need to understand though that if somebody is going to do something it will be there own choice and that something would drive them to do something it is there own problem. If they decide to do something stupid it has nothing to do with what you or anybody else said. They are not quite well and it does not matter what anybody else says they would probably do it anyway.

    Honestly though that guy did not sound to swift and does not sound like he is all there anyway, doubt he would know what to do!

    Joe

  • Jan 30, 2007, 07:02 AM
    Allheart
    You guys are so sweet.

    I don't think anyone was too harsh at all. He needed to hear it all and more. But just in a general sense sometimes it does cross my goofy mind.

    Believe me, if he is capable of doing what he did, come here with that stupid smiley face, not even come here with how to deal with the hurt he feels about the 3 babies (notice that is not why he came here), he can stand a harsh word. I do understand that, and yet, sometimes I still worry.

    Yes, don't think everybody's home there either. Oh boy.

    Laura, you are the sweetest ever. Believe me, hubby gets soooooooooo frustrated with me.

    Anyway, many hugs back :):)

    The reason I love this group so much is not just for the support but your kindness and honesty. I like it because it comes from the heart and a true cynic like me can see its for real. Christine, don't ever apologise for caring. You never know that by speaking honestly you may make someone see day light. Your honestly is also your passion.
    Laura, you have a maternal streak that runs a mile wide to match your heart of gold. I can feel the love you have for your child with every word you write. Your advice comes through as something our mothers would say.
    Joe, Ben, you're the guys. Your advice comes from different points of veiw that grounds us and gives us balance. And a its nice to have men around as well.
    Syn, you're a wonderful goddess. You're full of hope and passion. Your love of life shines through you in a strong way.
    I'm proud to be a part of such a great group.

    I'm a cynic and a pessimist... I just try to be nice about it!

    I just have a bunch of good friends here in this thread, and I wouldn't trade it for much of anything. Well.. wait... don't take this the wrong way, but if I had to give you up to have a baby, well... I would miss you a LOT!

    As I look at it, were all head cases. Its making the world a little less scary and a lot more fun. Keep in mind. Were goddesses (still working on Joe and Ben though its hard. Maybe muses will do) and we make the world beautiful by merely gracing it with our presence.
    And having such wonderful people such as yourselves makes it evenmore beautiful.
    Yes syn, you can get back under the covers now because I'm heading to my own thick comforter too.

    How about a tuna sandwich, with onions and tomatoes and cucumbers all diced and mixed with some mayo. Mouth watering I tell you.
