4ever , another week under your belt, well done

Got a call last night from my sis, she is 13 weeks pg, so so happy for her, she started trying for a baby the same time as me April 08, and it has been quite a journey for the pair of us, but am so pleased she is nearly there now . Also mermaid she's the one that had the fibroid problem and had them removed, but at the scan there are now 5 more, but it isn't affecting baby so that is good news.

Hope everyone is ok today, ds1 is back in school though we are scheduled for more snow tonight.

Neeko · 22/12/2009 11:51

Oops! Sorry Gracie

Just had a text from 4ever: "Little baby doin just perfectly!:-D So so relieved!x"

GracieGirl · 22/12/2009 11:38

Hello! I escaped! Thank you all for thinking of me and "the George" (if MrsKate can call hers Boris then mine is the George - "baby" is still a bit scary). I saw the midwife yesterday morning who got the fetal heart beat at 195, she checked about 4 times over about 20 minutes and it remained that high, then my pulse went really high too (probably cos the midwife had scared me) so she admitted me to hospital. They did bloods and left me on the continuous fetal heart monitor for most of the day and the George' heart rate settled down. I did get into trouble though as when Neeko texted me the wonderful news about Mermaid my mum showed me the text and I got a bit excited whilst on a monitor which is never a good plan! My heart rate went up, the George's went back up and I had 3 contractions! oops! Brilliant news though Mermaid, I'm so pleased for you! I've been let out but I have to promise not to rush around after everyone and rest.

Any news from 4ever?

mermaidspurse · 22/12/2009 09:59

so you could do housework

oh forgot sabs thank you for your message I wasn't very with it yesterday, big kiss for that lovely little girlx

mermaidspurse · 22/12/2009 09:54

4ever sending out masses of positive thoughts, vitamin c, relaxing bath soak and extra soft toilet paper.
You are in unchartered water so you are bound to be a bit wobbly. Let us know how you get on, everything crossed.

lbm at your journey home. I can't believe you have managed to stay stum and still get into tight trousers.

monkey safe journey home and have a fantastic Christmas.

baking thankyou lovely lady This Christmas cold is a nasty one. I am so hoping that you can party this old year out the window and the new year brings you both your hearts desires.xxxx

moon same goes for you brave girlxx

blue I am just glad that you can battle the elements in that trusty volvo And think you had better keep dancing for the rest of the day. Thinking of you, have you remembered to pack kendal mint cake?

neeko I am aghast that they make you all stay at school so long. You must be cream crackered.

gracie has anyone heard how she and bean are? heaps of love your way .xx

barbie words fail menora batty springs to mind!
I expect family are about to descend so have a lovely time.

mls well your hands may be in need of attention but just think how much more toned your biceps are after all that rubbing. Probably also quiet theraputic I expect. Travel carefully in all that icy weather.

curly have lovely visions of your dance. Are you still puking for England? I hope not its about time I took over the sickness baton

iggy I know you have burrowed into a nice cosy sand dune but sending you heaps of thoughts and a carrot for that poor neglected horse of yours

jools also hoping that cold goes quickly and fingers crossed.xx

Our road which is a steep hill is all iced up today so we are cut off well it would be if the shopping lorry wasn't coming today with christmas inside it!

Feeling absolutely knackered and have lots of perculating pains iykwim, I know this to be normal.... aghhhh!

Neeko · 22/12/2009 09:50

LOL MLS at the thought of you swanning off to the beauty parlour every week.

Big hugs to the ever wobbly 4ever

Belated Merry Christmas to Monkey and Cupcake who've already officially started their festive season.

Blue the baby has had her chance. tell her to hang tight til Sunday.

Mermaid hope you're relaxing.

moon what was so wrong with your day hon?

Jools and BQ hope the mission was successful.

Gracie Feet up!!!

Barbie Hope you've manage to reign in the Barbie behaviour today.

Curly are you feeling better now you're on hols?

Iggy hello other wobbly weeble. hope you're doing ok.

Big hugs to everyone else, especially all those saggypanters who're spending Christmas with someone extra special this year.

I hoped hard for a snow day today (so i could do some housework) but it didn't come. Officially finish at 2.30 but hope to leave when lunch begins at 12.50.

CurlyBigPants · 22/12/2009 00:01

4ever here's my hand for tomorrow. Your strong little bean will be giving you big waves to stop ur worrying xxx

MummyLovesSadie · 21/12/2009 23:27

BTW I didn't mean I actually 'have' my nails manicured religiously....... I do them myself! I don't want you all to have a picture of me having weekly manicures, pedicures & facials & having an au pair to look after dd - if only!

MummyLovesSadie · 21/12/2009 23:22

Hello everyone

Phew just sat down after marathon door-waxing session. I've just got to go round the corner bits with cotton buds, clean the glass & get all of the bits of wax off the floor then I'm done. I've done six doors & I've worked out that since Friday I've spent about 30 god damn hours on them & I now have hands like a 60 year old builder & my nails that I have manicured religiously since I was about 16 are now split, dirty & manky - buy hey it's only 4 more sleeps until Christmas so who cares!

Mermaid so happy to hear things are going positively for you. I guess this is one Christmas & New Year that you'll be wishing would hurry up & go so that you can have your next scan & start to relax a little bit.

4ever all of your aches & ailments are normal in pregnancy. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow.

GG hope you are ok.

Neeko is tomorrow your last day of work? Thanks for texting me the news today, could you possibly text me the news tomorrow as I'm supposed to be going to my parents for the day but they live 2 hours away on the Kent coast so I don't know if I'll be able to get there depending on the weather.

Waves to everyone, sorry for short post but I'm off to bed now.

monkeybumsmum · 21/12/2009 20:43

Hi all!

Mermaid Just wanted to say well done again, you must be so relieved. Have a wonderful Christmas!

Jools and BQ Good luck from me too! It would be wonderful if we had at least one BFP to welcome in the New Year

4ever Good luck tomorrow, I hope the scan goes really well and that you enjoy seeing all the little organs. It is such a miracle, and so amazing...

I have to go now as am off to the UK tomorrow straight from school, so have lots of packing to do! There's nothing like being organised and leaving everything to the last minute is there

Anyway, am not back till next Monday, I will try to come on to see how you're all getting on and whether there's any news from anyone (Blue - good luck!!!!).

Just in case I don't get chance to post again have a wonderful Christmas all, and take care xxx

littlebellsmum · 21/12/2009 20:21

Hi All
Quick post as my normal 1 hour commute took 3.5 hours tonight!!
4ever I also get pains in my stomach when I bend over, especially when I've got tight trousers on like today. Think it is just the LO objecting to being squashed and kicking back - really, don't worry. Likewise bloody poos - again, happens to us all! Looking forward to hearing more good news from you tomorrow!

mermaid So pleased to hear your news, you so deserve this - how you have kept so calm I don't know!

Got to go - now need to catch up on the work I missed by leaving early only to get stuck in traffic

CurlyBigPants · 21/12/2009 19:52

Finally I get on MN, I was getting frantic earlier and texting then got mermaid's wonderful news from the lovely 4ever neeko and cupcake all together. I did the curlyspecial waddle dance to celebrate I'm not sure what everyone around me made of that

This is a lovely xmas miracle. btw mermaid my granny is going to say a special prayer for you - and us all

So not wanting to be greedy but I'm going to ask for some more of that Christmas magic for jools and bq tonight and for all our little panters.

Big hugs to everyone and especially gracie xxx

BlueMoon1981 · 21/12/2009 19:31

mermaid wow what a lovely christmas story, a true miracle, i am so so pleased for you, its the perfect end to my crap day!

bluesatinsash · 21/12/2009 18:56

Quick post before Pc shuts down...

mermaid - FANTASTIC news this morning . Neeko txtd me this morning and I was bouncing round the kitchen - NOT good for a woman in my condition! Loved the image of you sitting eating breakfast afterwards, bet it tasted fabulous. Will keep all fingers and digits crossed and praying, praying, praying....

4ever - poor you with your stinking cold. Will be with you in spirit tomorrow and please don[t worry about twinges or blood in poo, all perfectly normal pg side affects, there are some rotten ones out there! Wonder if you will get to find out flavour tomorrow?

gracie - hope you're OK. Had similar worries re: baby's heart rate but mine was opposite as it was missing every third beat. All settled down after a few weeks but really worrying nonetheless...

Sorry for not posting personals but PC is about to crash, its flickering again.. DH ordered new one and getting FIL laptop for over hols so only have tomorrow to get through..

Nothing still from here - I'm en route to a 9lber me thinks .
