[JustKeepSwimming]

Love the new thread

well ds2 up at 4 for a feed, didn't resettle
4.45 took him into my bed, he fell asleep right away
have never done that with him but think i will from now on (i know for some it would be a backwards step but if it means more sleep...)
i couldn't sleep though anyway listening to him breathing - he's sooo bunged up at the mo.
then ds1 up at 5.30

did go to bed early last night so not tooo tired.

love the look of wheelybugs simpson - maybe for ds1 next year.

Ahhh..it's been nice looking at the names of old friends.

OK guys., Now I'm concerned. I though you were all going to tell me I was bonkers. . We were all 'ooo another baby! yayy!' for a day, and then I realised what a really bad idea it was to get pg so soon. I'm going to wait another three weeks to test though.

[madmouse]

LaTrucha - DD 1st JAn (Sabela)
Kelix DD 15th Jan (name?)
LuckySalem DD 16th Jan (Aaliyah)
Lilyloo DD 18th Jan (Martha)
JKS DS2 21st Jan (Henry)
Filly DD 29th Jan (Tamara)
Simpson DD 29th Jan (Molly)
Angechica DS 29th Jan (Alek)
Madmouse DS 1st Feb (Nathan)

What a rubbish night up and down like a yoyo. Might be the kind of chili con carne I made for him (he seemed to struggle with that IYSWIM ) or teethig, but he was just getting better! Hesitant to do anything like cc, as I am going to work in two weeks and that will be yet another big change for him.

Lovely to be thinking of new baby names. LaT is Sabela really so exotic? At least it has a sensible spelling. DH insists on biblical names, which is fine as long as we have boys. I do not find the bible quite as good for girls names . Nathan's consultant is called Eleri, which is a Welsh name I really love. Might put my foot down for a biblical middle name if we have a lady next

Off to have coffee with the childminder. Time to come out of denial

[Gingeme]

Morning ladies. Love the new title name. Yes it has simply flown past but I am realy looking forward to Christmas especialy without the heartburn!
Wow thats a big list. I wonder hoe everyone is doing now?
Had a rubbish night. Not only with ds5 but ds3 was poorly and had a high temp so up and down too so waking ds4 up sometimes too
Have seen the wheelybugs in Mothercare World. We have 2 ride on cars ata home so don;t think well have the room. Though we did buy a playschool walker for George that clips down flat into a car for when he is a bit more stable.
I hope Midge finds the new thread.

[Gingeme]

Ive updated my pics if anyones interested!!

[Lilyloo]

ahh semms so long ago now doesn't it makes me feel quite emotional seeing that list

So Sabela first has anyone got the birthday pressies ?
I have booked dd1 party at local gym so will celebrate Martha's too as having it on 18th! Have got her a mamas and papas rocker for her birthday. DD1 i am going to keep back some of the baby annabell things i have got her for xmas i think.

[countessofmontecristo]

Just popped in quickly to say hello. I've name changed. Was known as 'Betterhalf' but got sick of the name.

I don't seem to get much chance to pop on and chat much lately, especially now Toby is on the move constantly. He's into everything!
So, I feel a bit of a fraud for popping in every once in a blue moon and I miss out on all the chat and then find it's impossible to catch up.

I gather some of you are pregnant again. Congrats to those that are and good luck to those who are 'trying'.

MM I always love to read of Nathan's progress. What a fab little boy he is.

Gingeme, those new photo's are so cute.

To everyone else, hello and I cannot believe our gorgeous LO's are going to be 1 soon. Amazing.

[fillybuster]

ooh, well done, a lovely new thread! hurrah! but a bit that this is the 2nd one in a row where we've run out of space before getting to take a vote on the name for the new thread....

umm...still catching up from the last thread but for the time being:

1. Blows rasperrry at Lilyloo....but I'll put it down to the cerazette. And yes, I bled too and it made me deeply grumpy and hormonal but things improved once I stopped bf-ing and moved over to dianette

1. MM - you too? Gosh, well, fingers crossed for you!

1. Amanda - because I can and I've got a good memory. Have you heard from Lolo at all?

1. Simpson - isn't the dd/ds bond brilliant? Our ds also gets all the best chuckles from dd - he's totally her hero and is so responsible for her....really lovely!

1. Midge - welcome! Another 29th Jan baby here too!

1. Ange - I did something similar a few weeks ago...left my phone and housekeys inside the house when taking ds to nursery...not quite as bad as the netto carpark with a baby in the car though! was really amused at the shoplifting from Netto comment

uhg. brain just ran out...off to read new thread, catch up again soon...

[Gingeme]

Hi countess hope your keeping well.
I am going to be boring for ds5's birthday and ask people for money for him to put in his trust fubd, He will have so many pressies for Christmas. You can only fit so many toys in a 2 bed flat you know . Luckily I have 2 playgroups to distribute any old and unwanted toys too.
Just looking through the list again. Many different weights and names. So lovely to think of all those beautiful babys all arriving into the world in the same month, well more or less

[fillybuster]

So lovely seeing that list again...

I've been getting really broody, but dh has told me (and he's probably right!) that its probably partly connected to being back at work . Anyway, same thing happened when ds was 9/10mo - but I think its also that its at this stage that they start being quite independant and I start missing the new baby stage....aaanywaaaay, no, not going there, not for at least another 12 months or so...

Gingeme - are you up for a London meetup on a Weds morning sometime?

[simpson]

Hi all

Think I might be in for a bad night with DD as she has gone to bed already

She stayed awake from 7.30am till 4.15pm she then slept for 40 mins and woke up in a foul temper. Have just had total melt down with her so have put her to bed already.

Went to a baby and toddler group today which was really good fun and DD had a great time watching all the other toddlers dashing about

Tomorrow am meeting a friend for lunch in the afternoon which will be nice.

Have also found what I am buying DD for her birthday (think its made by fisher price)its a cross between a buggy for dolls and a baby walker. Anyway its £20.
