The addictable wagoners are welcoming some lovely newbies and enjoying seeing some oldies return! Thread for those waiting to ttc, those ttc now and graduates alike!

Well, make sure you have eaten a tonne of chocolate sugar before you go in, shouldn't be too hard

think we have 15 mins is a mini 3-d scan package

DS2 had the footmuff and the rain cover for the maxicosi and never used them, but, his pram had a proper carrycot so I prefered to use that, this time with the Bee only having the soft nest thing, I think I probably would use the carseat on the frame a bit more.

I am sure your scan will be fine, I think the 3D scans tend to be quite long (time wise) so you should have a good chance at getting a glimpse!

wow nat you have been busy i think you beat me with all that shopping sounds great though
i kind of miss not beable to decorate whole room for new baby as sharing with dd.
zanibar bits are lovely
i have oredered a maxi cosi cabrio footmuff 2 thought they were a gr8 idea have ordered mine in citrus green will be using seat on quinny frame.
also ordered rain cover for it as dd never had a rain cover for maxi cosi
poor ds1 being poorly

diege hope cat turns up
take care cal

not long till scan i am getting so impatient cant wait to find out worried will have legs crossed again and that
we still wont know.

Oh, and, I was supposed to be seeing the MW today, but DS1 is poorly (he has had a really bad cough/cold for best part of two weeks, but he was coughing most of the night and can barely keep his eyes open this morning, so we've had the argument "I want to go to school " "I wan't you go to school as well, but you can hardly walk in a straight line" LOL Bless him)

Am going to have to cancel the MW and go next week I think.

Morning

Diege, hope Big Cat has returned?

LB, hope DD is on the road to recovery today? Poor little thing.

LaTour, don't worry about the name/spaces thingy, I think we all know now! Is it a hoorah for period? I think it deserves a celebration coming so quickly

DH was like:

I was like: LOL

Am going to have a look for some little bits to go with the nursery bedding, I've got the big bookcase to fill with teddies and trinkets, etc.

Oh my poor DH

Cals- sorry to see you go. Dont forget you are always welcome here if you want to come back. Take care.

Blimey, it took ages to write that silly little note...not ignoring you LaTour - have fun in the wagon .

Blimey guys - its been so long I feel like I've been on holiday! (I wish - not long to go now though!)

As some of you may have guessed from the lack of posting of late, with all that's happened this year, I'm going to be taking a permanent break from posting on MN, but will do my best to keep up with what you're up to.

So goodbye from Calsworld, see you around.

Evening Diege , I wasn't trying to be mysterious - just not too obvious! I can probably confirm by telling you that I went running again at the weekend, I've been struggling to get out lately but finally got out on Sunday and am hoping to go again tomorrow. It was much easier this time so def think its time to brave it and creep into week 2's training!

I thought the same about the pre-seed, quite messy but DH preferred it and it worked last time so hopefully it will be helpful this time around too!

Sorry your cat has gone AWOL, I expect you're right that he's just gone a-wandering and will be back soon.

Sorry I'm a bit behind on everything, the last week or so has been a real blur.

Evening! Ah ha Latour I place you now . Good to hear ttc will be resumed asap - hopefully we can compare symptoms in the near future!
LB, poor you and dd How was the day trip on Sunday? Was it to Leed's castle? (or am I getting very muddled??)
Still smiling about your scan SES. I obviously had you on my mind as I rang up to speak to a colleague called SAZ and asked the secretary if I could speak to SES ; I kept repeating, 'no, 'SES!!'' until the penny dropped and I hastily backtracked
Still no sign of big cat , but we will take each day at a time re: breaking the news to dds. Something along the lines of he's gone for a wander/on holiday..
Off for an early night I think, although I had fancied wathcing second part of Place of Execution - twas v.good last week.
Speak tomorrow! x

Evening all...had a busy old weekend visiting family but it was lovely at the same time.

NJ - Must be being thick as don't understand about spaces - do you mean in your nickname? as you can't have spaces, only numbers or letters...

I don't think anyone has actually found me and I'm not worried but DH pointed out that my posting name is very similar to my RL name (and googled and found loads ) but I don't think anyone is stalking me! I have been thinking of changing my ID for ages anyway so now, when I'm kind of at a 'fresh starting point' as it were, it seems like a good time - do you like it?

AF has shown up after a gap of just over 4 weeks so efforts to ttc will start again shortly .

Ses - I've been holding my breath reading down the thread to find your post and am so pleased for you, it brought a little happy tear to my eye as I know how worried you must have been. When do you have your next scan, will you have a 12 week one as per 'normal'? Only asking so I know what might be expected!

Waves to everyone else! Got to do an online shop or there will be nothing to eat tomorrow!

evening everyone hope you are all well...... I am ok but DD is still poorly so not sleeping too well!!! Thus I am so tired.....

Off home now (getting a lift with a colleague - what luxury!).
Didn't take offense at all about old lady's lap NAT Would be nice to think of him sittng on on!
Speak later x

LOL Happy, I went into town a couple of times last week, the once I went in to get a single valance sheet, some double plugs and two 4 way plug extension things, came home with none of them, so had to go back in!

And as for the shoes, it is shocking, DS1 had all new uniforms to go back to school in at the beginning of Septemeber, his trousers are already bordering on being too short, his shoes are almost in pieces (bloody football grrrrrr) and I had to go and fork out for new school jumpers on Friday because his ones I got for the new term at the end of the summer term were too small....

Glad to hear it NJ - bit of a boring shopping expedition for me I'm afraid. New shoes for dd (£28!! couldn't believe it, and we're supposed to go back in 6 weeks for the next pair!!!), then trip to Woolies to get Winter wellies (bit of a tongue twister there!) then finally on to Sainsburys to stock up for, erm, probably another day or so before I'm back there again! Pregnancy brain seems to be striking big time, so everytime I return from the supermarket I realise the important thing(s) I've forgotten!

Your Mothercare order sounds really exciting though - you're so much more organised than me!

Diege, it is horrible when they are poorly, can understand why you're worried. Sorry, I didn't mean to sound flippant about the old dear's lap and tuna.

Tink, not long till you find out, FWIW, I have carried differently with all three of mine.

Happy, exciting for your scan Hot chocolate sounds great My hips are generally OK thanks, some nights/mornings are bad, but most days I can easily cope with it. I have found if I go for a gentle walk in the evening it helps. Did you buy anything good at the shops?

is there such a thing as a boy or girl bump
i.e if a boy you have a low bump and shaped like a basketball?
i am carrying differently with this one with dd gained weight on bum, legs etc.
this time around have just gained weight out front on bump

Hi again everyone. Still struggling to catch up properly, but thanks for the update Diege. So sorry to hear your news, and Cal too - but happy to see you're here trying again.

Congratulations Ses - glad your scan went well and hope it has all sunk in.

How are your hips NJ?

I've got my 20 week scan on Wednesday - not finding out if boy or girl, but have a feeling it is another girl!

Just had a frantic morning at the shops, so looking forward to putting my feet up with a hot chocolate and catching up with MN! Hope everyone is enjoying their afternoons!

have uploaded a new pic

ye ses thats great news for your bean
yep mine next

cant stop thinking boy or girl boy or girl
or what happens if bean has legs crossed again.
so desperate to find out?
will be excited with either gender would be great to beablt to buy blue dungaress sets and hats etc.

poor you diege with cat sure she will turn up

Excellent news SES!! I was looking at my watch and thinking of you as my train got into station, and sending lots of good vibes .
Hope you're right about big cat Nat. He could well have gone on a wonder, though because he's not eating at the moment and is stick thin, that's cause for worry.
Lots to do here, so will try and pop in later when back from work

I know, I am still at how much it all added up to, what can you do though? Things cost as much as they cost. DS2 will be 2 on December 7th, baby due January 3rd...

How are you?

T'is great news for Ses

Great news Ses have been thinking about you all morning. hope that you can relax a little now.

NJ- wow at your list and the amount you have spent. all looks good though. How old will DS2 be when DS3 is born?
