Had a bit of a mad day yesterday and not able to get on here.

Ce soir we are off to see Him Indoors' pal who recently birthed. So baybee v brand new. Think about a week old. Water birth with gas and air. Must have been one heck of a sneeze or wot???

Going to ask the dr about my backpain today as it's quite bad esp at work and I know sympathy will only last so long.

In equine news du jour - sharer is back in the saddle today so will see how that goes. Fingers xd well as do think bit of exercise couple of times a week keeps things ticking over.

We have so much to do indoors and bet ya bottom dollar this babe will arrive to utter chaos!!!

Cosmosis · 18/08/2010 10:14

No baybee laying here. I still think skater is going to queue jump again.....

Probably why she's not logged on cossie ... Wink

Are you drinking raspberry tea/eating curry/having lots of sex yet?

silver I cleaned my tack last night - you'd have thought that one of the three arses who's been getting to ride the nag for free might've done it. Hmm Now that I'm back in the saddle I'll be damned if I'm doing it in grubby tack.

Btw - robinsons are doing a pink sheepskin numnah for a mere 42 quid - too naff or brilliantly ironic?

Cosmosis · 18/08/2010 10:31

Started the rl tea and am planning curry tomorrow night! no sex, I'm not quite that desperate yet, I'll leave that till 41 weeks Wink

TGO is off to the races today with work, will he win us a fortune do you think?

rubbing Clary Sage oil (a little bit) on your tum tum is another way to get labour on the go. I did this and the next day labour started. Depends how desperate you are Cos Wink

Working from home today as have a lot of men round to dismantle and erect a new shed (it is a big shed!) What with having the painters in and a new shed I am in hard core nesting mode.

Cosmosis · 18/08/2010 10:35

Cheers for tip Okes

Oooh you have men at your house with a big erection [sock]

I bought maternity jeans from Debenhams yesterday. I may never wear anything else, even when not-diffed. SO comfy!

Moo haa haaa okie. Btw are you doing stretches daily? it really does work you know. I start off not being able to walk with my ligaments, stretch et voila - much better. I was stretching on the office floor yesterday (such an exhibitionist I know).

Witty fanks for ear plug reco. Will definitely investigate. Are they softer than the normal wax ones? I can't get on with those - they make me dizzy!

Ski isn't that a bit Jordanesque - pink numnah I mean - yes I even know what one is!!! :)

Silver I feel you. My friend also had a v au naturel birth experience. Makes me more nervous in a way. I hope that's me IYKWIM.

Muser · 18/08/2010 10:59

moo I can recommend this website for buying earplugs. They do a trial pack with all different brands so your man could experiment with what suits him. I got one when MrM's snoring got ridiculously bad. Snorestore

OkieCokie · 18/08/2010 11:18

Yes, erections all over the place here. I am keeping them in coffee and chocolate so they do a good job . Mr C is very excitied about the new shed (more so than the new baybeeee) and is having a bbq with all his friends in Saturday I think just to "show it off". He also wants a beer fridge in there. I suggested he put a bed in there too.

Is a pink sheepskin numnah baybee or horse related?

Cosmosis · 18/08/2010 11:39

Horse Okie

I wish we had a shed. Mr Moo refuses to take garden chairs into the cellar every day. Funny that. they don't live in the fucking kitchen!!!!

Fanks for more earplug recommendations. okie am leaving work soon. What time can you get away from hunky shed builders for your holiday wear handover chez moo?

SomethingSuitablyWitty · 18/08/2010 11:52

Cos I kinda liked "sock" - reminded me of that old Red Hot Chilli Peppers poster. So the waiting game, eh? How is that going?

honey - yeah they are really soft. I've never seen any like them before. They come in a little piece of cotton, which you pull off and then roll them a little bit and in they go. Sample pack also sounds like an interesting plan.

I'm guessing horse for numnah.

Cosmosis · 18/08/2010 12:16

Waiting game is ok, just plodding along keeping myself occupied. Been doing some gardening this morning, off to NCT meet up tonight so that will be nice.

Getting v grumpy in the evenings though, poor TGO :(

I'm sorry, pink ANYTHING on a horse which stands taller than your knee is naff. The entire Katie Price range should be thrown down a very deep well and left there. I come from the old school of plain brown tack for everything, although I have given in to DD's pink urges for her pony. (The pony falls into the 'doesn't come past your knees' category, although judging by the look on her face she does not approve!) The worst thing ever is when you go to the local hunter trial and there is a 50-something year old woman with pink everything, even down to the over-reach boots on her horse. (Actually, I've just remembered, pink Swarovski crystal clad dressage divas are worse. And that's just the boys!) I sense I may be inviting disapproving pursed lip looks for eschewing pink horsey things like this, but hey, that's what makes us all different.

Having said all of that, I think a pink sheepskin numnah could make a good car seat liner for a baby girl.....

Cos you may claim you are not even thinking about sex, but this;

  " men at your house with a big erection [sock]" 

gives you away Grin.

Silver hoping the sharer is working out. Am over on a horsey place and getting stick from a sister of a top show producer who is getting really defensive about her getting free stabling at her sister's place for her horse and having a go at me because I don't use a showing producer AND have the cheek to have a husband who occasionally helps me go to shows by looking after DD. I have no idea why she is being so argumentative - she's won RIHS, and I've never even qualified, but clearly she feels the need to defend something she does. Having said that I DID make a comment that the only horsey event in 3 years that I have been specifically forbidden to bring DD along to was the training camp she organized. Apparently the only child allowed is her son, because he knows how to behave in company!

Backinthebox · 18/08/2010 12:59

Reminded me of the Chili Peppers album too.

Cos that tshirt is made with you in mind!

OkieCokie · 18/08/2010 13:05

Moo you have probably left already - I got distracted for an hour on my own "deit coke break" - will text you.

Backinthebox · 18/08/2010 13:36

Ginger child took herself off to her room in a sulk this morning after I switched off her TV program as punishment for peeing on the floor in the living room. Fine, I thought, let her sulk up there for a bit, she'll get over it. Just gone up there to get something to discover she has pooed on the wicker chair beside her bed where we sit to read bedtime stories. It is well and truly mashed into the wicker. And what was left over is in the bed.

I was so hoping to have this potty training malarkey sorted by the time I had 2 children.

PollyPoo · 18/08/2010 14:01

Oh Boxy I am sorry, I did laugh. Blush Little madam! That beats my 'poo in a shoe' story hands down.

OkieCokie · 18/08/2010 15:17

Oh no, I am dreading the potty/toilet training already.

laurielou · 18/08/2010 16:11

well and truly mashed into the wicker

Genius! Grin
