I have this lovely mental image of us all pacing up and down the corridor outside Buddha's delivery room . We may have to hunker down for a bit yet as inductions can take a LONG time (now hoping that's double bluffed it and baby is either here or en route )

Hi MLS you do whatever is right for your emotionally and mentally. We're here always x to hear about your DH on holiday. I haven't ever spotted mid cycle - could it be a v. early implantation bleed??!

Had a madly bizarre moment there, just back in from playdate and DS v. tired, rocking him on his chair and felt all wet all of a sudden....

....waters breaking?? err no, DS just pee'd all over me Thankfully missing me new UGG boots but we both had to be stripped below the waist blimey o'reilly.

Oh well, back to pacing the corridor...

Hello all, sorry for lack of posts but I'm just about keeping my head above water emotionally speaking. I feel like this year my life has been a game of Monopoly, every time I progress onto Park Lane & manage to buy a hotel I land on the square that says go straight to jail, do not pass go, do not collect £500, whilst everyone else sails past me building up their empires. I might not be posting as often as I used to but I'm not going to disappear.

Blue I loved Italy but unfortunately dh became arseface while we were there. So pleased to hear things are looking better at your last scan.

4ever so happy it's all going swimmingly. I think once alcohol is cooked in food the alcohol content disappears.

Neeko sorry to hear your sad news, hope you, dh & dd are finding comfort in each other & your growing bump.

Buddha push girl.

Annie maybe you are pushing too?

Moon, Jools, BQ & any other sad small panters, lets all hold hands & maybe December will be our month.

Waves to Barbie, MrsKate, Mermaid, Iggy, Cupcake, LBM, Vjay & anyone I've missed. Oh yes, where is Gracie?

Quick question - does anyone know what spotting during ovulation means, if anything?

MrsKate · 24/11/2009 13:08

im fine thanks sabs how are you and your beautiful daughter

Sabs1981 · 24/11/2009 12:32

I think we're all lurking today for news

Hope everyones well

MrsKate · 24/11/2009 12:29

4ever - yay! again for fantastic belly scan . re: choc liquors - depends how many you can tuck away in the one sitting . I'm sure they're fine to take but I personally abstain but I get a bit holier than thou with alcohol during pg until @ 7 months then allow myself one glass if I have a big night out/meal scenario... I don't think I ever gave gracie my mob no. but Neeko has it and can send it to you so I can give you news on babyblue's arrival when the time comes x hope you give it tight to your HR vineger knickers and occy health tyrant tomorrow and send them away with a flea in their ears - meh!

Buddha - hope you're chilling tonight and preparing for your big day tomorrow - I'm so overexcited for you and your DH. Know you are terrified too but just trust your body, go with your instincts and swear if you have to - fuckitfuckitfuckitandpuuush .

Barbie - how did it go in court today?

Annie - anything building up your end??!!

Goodluck tomorrow buddha, hope all goes well and can't wait for an update. Thanks barbie keep us updated. I'm off now, it's bathtime, which takes ages cos Ajay just loves it

barbie1 · 23/11/2009 18:02

thanks girls...

hope buddha doesnt mind but just seen her fb status and she is being induced tomorrow

VJay · 23/11/2009 17:48

Wow barbie that scan was really amazing, and I'm thinking it's a boy too. DS1 was watching some of it and says it's very cute .

mermaid the weather hasn't been too bad up here either, infact I had blue skies up here today

4ever and blue so glad you both had fab scans, and blue must be relief that you are normal again

bluesatinsash · 23/11/2009 17:30

Oh barbie - that was amazing!! I think its a boy and a very bonny one at that .

Neeko - honey, didn't know your news before I txtd you earlier. So sorry to hear about your DH's Grandpa's passing . I'm sure you will be a great support for him this week. My EDD is the 11 year anniversary of my Gran's passing and my Mum is bittersweet about it...

Fantastic news on 4ever's scan - and exhale .

No news on Budha - harrumph. Hope it all went smoothly and she's in the post-birth utopia - its amazing

cupcake - you know I need to send DH out now for a Mars Bar .

Vjay - I can believe little Ajay is nearly outgrown his basket - big strapping lad

Hey mermaid - its not too bad up here, wild at night but seems to settle during the day

Iggy - let the hand holding commence in the days 'til your scan...

Talking of which mine went really well to the point that my pregnancy is now deemed 'normal' again and I have a rescheduled consultant appointment next week (from the one that was abandoned on 28th Oct) to discuss my birthing options - yay! I may get my natural VBAC after all... My pg is being allowed to 'run its course' barring any emergenices of course. What a relief after four weeks of being on red alert with my hopsital bag packed... babyblue is weighing @ 7lbs too

Better go, everyone has just arrived home.

Will pop back later xx
