lol at Tom being up until the wee hours. I had been snoring for hours while he was still awake Grin Blush

Nice to see you again redhead. Please come on here and talk about Zac as much as you want, we will never tire of hearing about him.

I lost my firstborn too and while we actually didn't plan ds2, I remember the emotional turmoil and headspin I felt when pregnant with him. I'm now pg with ds3 and whilst I've still had some angst , it has been easier.

So I think what i'm trying to say is, there are people on here who understand and have most likely been through every emotion, albeit dark and good, that you have felt.

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 10/01/2011 08:23

Hurrah for time to yourself PPM, I hope you plan to do sweet fa!

Whilst I'm not on a diet I woke up today thinking 'I need to stop using this pg as an excuse to eat anything - and everything!' Blush

shabbapinkfrog · 10/01/2011 08:31

He's gone to school Grin Luckily, for him, its only 10 minutes walk away!!! OMG girls do you remember when he first went to High school? I crossed him over every morning and back every night Blush I was so afraid something would happen to him. He has been going there and back on his own for about 6 months now. I cant pretend that I am OK with it BUT he will be 14 in June.....I have to let him grow up xx

Lol at doing sweet fa... Have u SEEN my list ILike??!!!! If only!!!! But even if I get an hour of headspace it'll b more than I've had recently...

CazandBelle · 10/01/2011 09:23

CazandBelle · 10/01/2011 17:25

ppm oh no. poor DS. I really hope for him and you that he is better soon. It really does sound like you could do with the break now. Lots of love to you xx

He has just eaten (cos he was 'starving') .. Good sign I think!! His temp is fine and generally seems well so am not as worried as I was last week...
How's everyone else doing today? X

Heliantha · 10/01/2011 18:28

Big ((hug)) for ppm & DS - it's so frustrating when you think they're getting better. Bit better here, tho DS1 still complaining (might be something to do with an AS module this week too :))

shabbapinkfrog · 10/01/2011 19:14

Just caught up with the 'Wright stuff.'

So proud of the bereaved mums who spoke with such dignity, passion and love against the EE storyline. I know that I dont know any of you in RL but well done ladies, well done xxxx

Good luck with the staying calm LF
Better keep away from the "banging head on a wall tonight" Grin

Minione · 10/01/2011 20:27

Hi everyone snd welcome to Innocent. I'm sorry that you have had to find yourself on this thread but glad that we can be of support to you. You seem pretty together for one so young (oh my, I sound about 95!) but you have been through an awful lot and sound amazingly strong. Big hugs to you X

PPM - sorry to hear your little one's still poorly, hope he's feeling better soon x

Well I'm watching University Challenge, I don't watch EE anyway but feel all the more smug that whilst that shit is being portrayed on the other side I am being an intellectual (I usually get about 2 right Wink}.

Hope you are all ok x

CazandBelle · 10/01/2011 20:30

LR all very well being very nice but is she going to get you a bed. Have been thinking of you a lot. When are they looking to do a section? is it a case of being kept in and observed and deciding as things go along?

IR I second what LF says. 16 is such a young age to lose your baby. I am 25 and I've grown up very quickly in the last 6 months, to do that growing up at 16, without any previous life experience, it seems so much worse - I hope you had arms wrapped around you and lots of support.

LOL @ stepping down from frantic, LF Grin - hope your midwife sees the light very soon, keep the calm xxxx

Just watched the wright stuff Shabs via that link on FB - OMG Susan from Bedfordshire I totally admire you and am so sorry for your loss. I hope that the appropriate folks from the bbc were watching - your views clearly moved the presenters and I'm sure anyone else who was watching.

LF - second what Caz says, they really should be keeping an eye on you and not taking such a laid back laissez-faire attitude. Thinking of you x

shabbapinkfrog · 10/01/2011 21:17

OMG just watching that soddin' 'One born every minute!!' I have no idea why I do this to myself Grin I am panting and pushing with them LOL.

LF am thinking about you sweetheart xx

CazandBelle · 10/01/2011 21:55

Yeh get DH on it if you can lf you don't need the added stress of fighting. although I expect your stress levels are up already because of the situation. Just keep counting down those days sweetheart, little targets.

that is what I'm telling myself about getting pregnant again anyway. current little target - getting pregnant, after that I cannot think about.

I've no idea when I'm ovulating after such along cycle last month. I've got poor DH at if every other day because of this! Fingers crossed that 2011 is going to start with a BFP later on this month.

shab I can't watch OBEM this year. I loved it last year, although it scared the bejeezus outta me about labour!!

shabbapinkfrog · 10/01/2011 22:07

I hope I haven't upset anyone mentioning the telly programme. As soon as I added my message I worried that I had put my size 5's in it!!

I totally understand why you cant watch it Caz. I still cant watch programmes like Casualty - especially if the story starts to unfold and it involves children.

CazandBelle · 10/01/2011 22:09

Course you haven't shab - I wish I could watch it! Its a great series! Just not feeling strong enough right now.

Oh thank Gawd for that. In the last series I had to go and stand in the kitchen when they had a couple of very complicated deliveries. Just stood in the dark, crying!

Tom was 20 days late and ended up being a ventouse (SP??) delivery - so bloody scary. Twins - Danny born first, head first and 14 minutes later Gareth was born feet first. Matty was my easiest.....labour went on for hours and hours and then - he was 'just there' if you get what I mean.

CazandBelle · 10/01/2011 22:24

20 Days!!! Wow shab i would be going out of my mind! I'm so glad I never have to look beyond 37 week now. I've already been told I will induced as soon as we hit term. For my own sanity more than anything else. We're not even pregnant again yet and I'm already anxious about how I will get to the other end intact.

Penny Rainbow was my favourite on the last series. Her name is so pretty, and she was amazing!

There was a young girl and boy who were amazing for their age too. He seemed so responsible and together and there for someone who was about to become a teenage dad. They put some of the grown ups to real shame.
