oh dear- have been extra extra lazy and ordered dominos online for tea!! my food shopping isn't being delivered until lunch time tomorrow so i have nothing it at all!! I'm going to have a chicken combo for my tea and let the kids feast on a 'scrummy' pizza... they'll hopefully leave a few pieces un-mangled for DH to warm up in the oven later!!

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 01/09/2008 17:24

ses- waffle away!!

i am over the moon about being pg- and this is the third time!! i've told lots of RL people (did with the other 2, and some people have noticed my BUMP already!!!) so can completely understand you being full of beans about it!!

i'm currently pondering wether to buy DC's a playhouse and see-saw off tesco online for £82 inc p&p... i think thats very good... the house is a brown colour too, looks ever so much nicer than the white cheapy ones!! have text DH to ask him what he thinks but no reply yet!!

GYo · 01/09/2008 17:16

ooh thats a nice idea, not soppy at all

Since being so worried after I had my early bleed (I know its not like having a full MC) I am very clear in my mind that if its meant to be, it will be - regardless... its a shame you cant get a guarantee card at time of BFP!

MN is amazing support - both giving and receiving. and its like a having a network of RL friends. Sometimes its sad we are all so far apart, but then its the MN setting that makes it what it is!

BTW, I am still looking at my positive pregnancy tests, two months later!

Will go as I am wittering (as my DH would say)

Had to do it and seriously it is helping to look at it every so often!
Also just realised there are probably about 20 people I've told so far this time too - it's just that they're MNetters!
This is going to sound really cras and soppy and...whatever.... but:
After everything that happened I wanted to try and find something positive to come out of it all and at one point toyed with the idea of setting up my own website on mc. I even bought a book on how to do it as I have no idea! Then I found MN and I guess that has been the positive thing to come out of it all. Can't ever imagine not having MN to log on to and share the highs & lows and (hopefully) help a few others along the way.

oh LB- so sorry to hear things are going pear shaped at home... if your online to pop in and offload to us!! you know you're always welcome to offload whatever it is!!

i know we dont do em but i think you need one today {{{hugs}}}

SesHasapinkline · 01/09/2008 16:57

I'm doing ok thanks. V worried after everything that's happened but I do now many people who have a mc later go on to have no problems. (I think all of us with mc experience just need to try and keep that in mind). I've been getting a few symptoms.... The last 3 mornings I've woken up at 4.30am, few crampy pains and (best of all) indigestion and diarrhoea!

Wierd thing happened yesterday at church. Lovely lady came up to me and said "I heard you were expecting. Is that right as you have a very neat bump!" I knew word had got round when I had been of so just quietly said "O I was of but unfortunately mced". Poor lady was upset for me and gave me a big hug! All the while I'm hiding my bfp that I've just got! Have to say, it would have been a v tiny baby as it would have been due Oct! I guess she had no idea of my dates!

Wierd not telling anyone (other than you guys of course!) Oh and did tell bf up in York yesterday who tried to control her excitement. Last time round though about 20 people knew by now! Don't regret that but want to wait until a successful early scan this time round before telling anyone else.
Thank goodness for you lot as you guys have now had to put up with my waffle!

Am I the only one in the whole world who hates MW appointments?

(Sorry if that sounds insensitive?)

The appointments just annoy me, just the whole having to get there and then always coming out having forgotten something because it is all so rushed, and then you realise that you've gotten 2 kids and yourself up, showered, dressed, and ready to go, got on the bus, walked 1/2 hour to the doctors, sat in the waiting room with DS2 getting more and more irritated for sometimes up to an hour, and then walked the 1/2 hour back into town just to repeat the whole bus journey, all for the sake of a 2 minute lie down on a bench while someone measures your belly and sticks a stick in your wee, and tells you to come back and do it all over again in 4 weeks!

I am in no way having a go at the MW's BTW, the pressure they are under, there is nothing else they could do, or that I'd expect them to do.

God, that was a moan wasn't it?

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 01/09/2008 16:24

oh nat!! i wish i had a MW app!! still not even got my booking app yet!! though i suppose the GP only found out on thursday when i went for my medicine!!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 01/09/2008 16:13

They have calmed a bit Lulu, still getting more than I would like, but they haven't been too painful and haven't gotten any more regular than 20 minutes.

Think you have a slight reprive for now!!

lulumama · 01/09/2008 16:11

how are you feeling NJ, any more ctx?

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 01/09/2008 16:10

Afternoon, of all your shopping, I have MW appointment tomorrow, and it is DS1's last day of hols so (if I manage to swerve the consultants after the MW's) we are off into Blackburn, DS1 has pulled his other wobbly tooth out so he'll have more money to spend LOL Not a bit like his mum, I'd sell my teeth for more shopping money as well!!

I am looking for a steam cleaner whatsitthingymejig, have no idea where to start!

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 01/09/2008 16:09

i'll keep em crossed for a boy for you!! i have a feeling it is!!

tinkhasanacrobatic · 01/09/2008 16:04

cheers glas
cant wait to find out beans gender on 4th of oct.
@ dds party yesterday 2 of my friend say that i am definetly having a boy due to the way i am carrying so we will have 2 see

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 01/09/2008 15:57

well done to you tink on getting all the money for your buzz!! i'd love one but i'm quite happy with the mamas and papas i have. I may be tempted by a luna though!!

tinkhasanacrobatic · 01/09/2008 15:56

well done on shopping diege and glas

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 01/09/2008 15:48

Diege- he gave me maxonol i think (can't be bothered to get off my bum and go and look!!) and you dont need to tell me about hospital drip's!! was in twice with DS, so luckily i had previous experience to prove i was being more than just sick!! I had a 50% chance of coming out of it OK myself with DS as the receptionist at my old GP's kept telling me she couldn't make me an app as sickness was 'part and parcel of pregnancy'!! Though throwing up every 5-10mins for 2 weeks solid isn't normal!!

anyway, just glad i'm sorted this time!! i'm pretty certain its a boy though because of the sickness!!

anyhow, your shopping sounds good... i did some online shopping, got a maternity coat from verbaudet, lots and lots of clothes for DD for xmas (summer clothes for next year) from their too and it only came to £65!!

then did an online shop with tesco (not posh enough for a waitrose or ocado (sp?) here!!)

and still have lots of money to splash on some toys for the kids for xmas!!

we're lucky that DH gets paid 4 weekly and we pay the mortgage every month, so every year DH gets paid 13 times, so we always have one payday without having to pay the mortgage, just so happens to be this pay... and we also dont have to pay our water rates, car insurance, and home phoneline either in this payday!!! And next month he gets his audit bonus so i can splash that on baby things after the 12 week scan!!

Diege · 01/09/2008 15:07

Arhhh!! EWM has arrived and dh not back till Tues night . Pleased that my body seems to be working OK though, as day 16 ov (today) would fit in with slightly longer af. Still...
Great news on sickness front GLASK - you have a great GP there. Hossy drip is not a great place to be I can tell you. Being nosey, did you get stemitol (sp)?
Here's to my June baby then SES. Still keep grinnign whenever I think of your happy news. Have you used the new CBD yet? (think you got a free one??)Buggy plans sound great TINKS - must be very staifying to get the money for your old stuff before splurging!
On the splurge front (and I'm not talking about Nat I've had a good shop in town today. Only went in for trousers (got them) but ended up with 3 pairs of shoes for me, a skirt, top and shoes from Zara (HOW small is their sizing!!), 3 pairs of shoes for dd3, a jumper and two tops for dd3, and a coat for me!!! All spend up now, and in a way need to have a few pregnant-free months just to get some wear out fo things!
Back at work tomorrow, and it'll be quiet too, so loads of mumsnet time
