Thought it was time we had a new home, seeing as we've almost outgrown the old one. So in honour to Scorpio, Sybil, BB and toomuch (hope I didn't forget anyone ) here we are - in the company of pregnant (and cheerful) ladies

Goodness, is quiet in here!

Hobnobs - on scan.

No pg news here; but not expecting any for a while. Going to stop BF after Xmas, if the little monkey will even take a bottle!

How are you all?

Hello. Just a quick message (bit snowed under with work at the moment) to say my dating scan went ok this morning. Am measuring 12+6 (a couple of days less than my dates but it seems to change each time!) Hopefully I will start to relax a bit now !

Gilly Glad the IVF appointment was ok - though sorry you were kept waiting ages (even longer than us, I think). As you say, at least you've got all the tests out of the way so just need to wait for funding.

Big wave to everyone else and will catch up properly when have finished this nightmare piece of work.

I got the pattern from Ravelry. I didn't make it up - I'm nowhere near that clever!

Ds has triptrap natural with the red stripe seat cover - not that we use this bit anymore - too much gets dropped, no baby bars etc as not safe to climb in and out. Fantastic chair - he's really happy in it, we use it for all arts and crafts as well. (paint washes off too! )

scorpio1 · 08/10/2008 11:54

Hello all, goodness very quiet here! Mimi has started wenaing now, last weekend. She adores it!

We have ordered a tripp trapp; natural, red baby set and red stripe seat cushion & harness (for you virtual shoppers)

We have started to ttc again, but is going to take a longer time for me because i am still fully BF. (6 months before) then dh will get the snip, lol, and we are chatting about me egg donating.

Hope you are all well enough

mistlethrush · 07/10/2008 13:27

HN - what - already!!! Ds always measured over the dates - which we were pretty certain about - and got increasingly in front of them. He was already ahead by 9wks...

Sybil - hope you're feeling better now.

Sorry been a bit out of touch. Somehow this dropped off the list and I had trouble finding it again...

hobnobs · 03/10/2008 14:59

Gilly Sorry you're having such a bad time at work at the moment - you don't really need all the extra stress on top of everything else. I know what you mean about the idea of ttc being a bit of fun going out the window! As Lottie says, at least the success rates are much higher with IVF. Reading other people's experiences, I think I was the exception to the rule with IUI.

Sybil Hope the mastitis has gone - it sounds very painful. I just spoke to a friend who had it really badly with her first DS. Her 3 month old DD has been a breeze in comparison (and sleeps through the night ).

Lottie Impressed at the lack of waiting list at Guys! You seem to have worked your way through the system pretty fast which is great, and you've got a good back up plan.

I will be 12 weeks on Sunday (in theory this gives me a due date of 19th April but will wait and see what they say at the dating scan (a week on Monday). Last time (9+4), I was measuring three or four days less though I think it's not an exact science at such an early stage.

Hello to everyone else.

PiggyPenguin · 02/10/2008 12:54

Hi guys, sorry I've been lousy at staying in touch. I had really bad mastitus - ouch

Toomuch - how can you be that close to giving birth! Can't wait for the announcement, and good luck for the next scan to you too Hobnobs.

Gilly - sorry it didn't work out for you this time. Fingers crossed for the next one.

Hello to everyone else!

Jamie is 16 weeks now and adorable but what a pest! He has been doing nursing strike for around 8 weeks now and will only feed when asleep and won't take a bottle. We are both a bit exhasuted by it all but need to keep going until 6 month s and weaning. Otherwise thouhg, he is the most happy and grogeous baby.

Gilly - for you. Hang on in there.

Mimi is fine, 24 weeks old now - well over 5 months, OMG! She is so beautiful.

hobnobs · 01/10/2008 09:06

Gilly So sorry . I was really hoping that your instincts were wrong and that this was going to be your month. Look after yourself - I hope you have something nice to take your mind off ttc to look forward to.

Gilly sorry I didn't think you wouldn't tell us but then you have been very quiet!!
hobnobs I know you think two weeks to wait for scan is ages but it doesn't seem 5 minutes (to me anyway) since you got your BFP! What do you think your EDD will be?
I'm not up to much at the moment, have picked up my knitting needles again after a bit of a summer break but no news on the baby front, we're expecting to wait til at least next year before starting anymore IVF and that's only if we can get the money together...
