Tales from the dark side, from a coven of evil hags obsessed with ghoulies. Hellish talk of FJ and puke will chill you to the marrow. Unspeakable horrors from our uterine crypts do creep - but thankfully, we're also having baybees...

Happy birthday Scorps!

PerfectDromedary · 29/10/2010 09:55

I've said happy birthday to Scrofulous in twelvety different places on the internets. Might as well do it here, also. Happy birthdays, Scrope and LyraGoddess!

Um, PESHes. Is it possible I could have done myself a serious injury carrying a Very Heavy Cake last night (and also a Very Heavy cast-iron stewpot)? Am having a tiny bit of brown spotting and some odd crampy pains in the fanjo. Baby is kicking and midwife has reassured me all is fine. Just wondered if anyone else had had this sort of lark at around 23 weeks?

rocketleaf · 29/10/2010 10:36

i repeat HAPPY BIRFDAY pette and lyra

Um, i have just bought standing take that tickets cos they were the only ones i could get and my friend was panicking. For the day I am due, lol. Chances of me actually going? slim.

rollerbaby · 29/10/2010 10:50

HAPPY BIRFDAY SCORPIO.

May all your brownies be eaten today! (NB Unless you have eaten them already).

drommie I fink your MW is very wise and not to worry. I had teeny tiny bit at one point (can't remember when now) and they told me that as the baby burrows in, little capillaries can break off which is the spotting. Really nowt to worry about I think. If it continues obviously ring back but a leetle bit is normale.

Rocket as a lady 1 day away from EDD, I'd say standing up for a TV ad break is about as much as I'd fancy right now. Soz.

Silver get tweaking beatch. 5 mins each side ok?

pony I predicted that fred, but with fireworks... Maybe she should wear an extra anorak over her tum tum?

The witching hour between 4 and 5.30am is now pissing me right off. Peeing, can't turn over/get comfy/dog in the way wanting to cuddle. Arghhh. Tired again. Had 3 lots of crampy feelings in the night which did make me wonder, but nothing happened.

Orchid12 · 29/10/2010 11:25

Morning PESHies. As a newly qualified differ on project MAD I thought I would come and mark my place. I bring copious amounts of cake as on offering to you lovely ladeez (in fact I have stolen owlies cupcakes from Le Palais, but don't tell her!). I'm still happily taking a scenic boat ride down De Nile for the moment as it's early days but thought I would say a quick hello.

rocketleaf · 29/10/2010 11:29

moo i know i am bonkers, and I will probably have to sell it, but I am obviously still in denial.

big welcome to orchid so pleased to see you in here, please join me in this comfy corner of De Nile :D

Medee · 29/10/2010 11:40

Happy Birthday scorpette, have a lovely day.

drom, I'm sure it is fine if you have kicking etc, but just keep an eye on it and don't be worried to call your midwife again.

We had our second 20week scan this morning, and baby in a much better place - still very wriggly, but the sonographer saw everything she needed to (another lovely lady who talked us through everything she was looking at.) She was so enthisiastic about the baby - it's gorgeous, it's lovely, I could scan you all day - that you could almost believe that she didn't already do this 20 times a day!

muse glad you are having a lovely time in ThisScotland, hope you feel less sick.

laurie so happy for you and your scan - it's so nice having the photos to look at.

Welcome Orchid

PerfectDromedary · 29/10/2010 11:49

Oh, yay for second scans and wriggly babies, Meds.

And Lozza, I think I missed your scan happy - sorry! Am glad it was all brilliant.

Hello Orchid! Nice to see you here.

Hon Gah to the witching hour. And fanks for reassurance!

rocketleaf · 29/10/2010 12:01

drom sorry missed your post about the spotting. Hope it goes away very soon. MW sounds very reassuring tho.

Meds great news re the 2nd scan, sonographer sounds lovely ad so glad the little un played ball this time!

I really need to get off ticket websites and get on with the day....

Scorpette · 29/10/2010 12:45

Aw, fanks guys! All your luffs makes us for the fact that evil Bossunfriend has a secondary FB profile she's clearly forgotten I am part of and she's called me a cunt and hoped I have a shit birthday, etc., over there, thinking I won't see it [hangry] Still, is nice to know I'm well out of such immature bullshit. Makes you know who your true friends are, eh?! Got so many lovely birfdee wishes that her crap can't upset me. Am having a fab day so far, despite sickness. TYF has added a soppy message from Teh Baybee on my card, but, before you vomit, he then went into a spiel about how difficult it had been to get a card and a biro up my vagina whilst I slept [hhmm] [hgrin]

Drom, I hope you're alright and am glad the MW put your mind at ease (as much as poss, right?). It'll be nuffink, but it must be scary

Can I just say that Polly's allergy-free brownies are soooooooooooooooo GOOD that they make me pleased I've got allergies? Seriously, you need to start up your own baking business!

Medee, am glad your 2nd scan was so fab with such a wonderful lady at the helm. All scans should be that nice :)

Rocket, if you really do have to sell your Take That tickets, I know Lyra is desperate for some!

TwinkleToes76 · 29/10/2010 13:41

Drom I missed your spotting post. I hope it has stopped and the worry is lessening. Am sure it will turn out to be nothing. Put down the pots and the cake and rest up. x

OkieCokie · 29/10/2010 13:46

Happy birfday Scorps! And welcome Orchid Many congraultaions on your recent diffment!

I am fucking sick of being in a fucking queue for tickets. It is taking the piss. Rocket you are lucky to have a ticket! I have been logged on to queue since 8.57am.

rocketleaf · 29/10/2010 14:52

oh scorps [hshock] and [hangry] at you exbossfriend, what a cow. stuff her as you rightly say

I wish I has known about lyra wanting tickets, Tbh I was stupid not to just buy an extra 2 really as would be bound to find takers for them. :(

ockie try ents24.com. then click on the unreserved seats option, should take you too the credit card form. might boot you out a few times but just keep going back and filling it in until it takes your details. good luck!

Scorpette · 29/10/2010 20:26

rollerbaby · 29/10/2010 20:31

I iz here. Have you had a lufferly birthday lady?

I got hurty bits.

OkieCokie · 29/10/2010 21:49

Thanks rocketronnie I tried em but it links to seetickets and I have been trying them all day. I have given up. My hopes are set on Foo Fighters as I like them better anyway.

I have a hurty back moo. I have been to the park and lifting Mini C a lot in the sandpit and on slides. I love my Fridays but I can't walk at the end of them! Tis quiet around these parts. Thinking of Silv and hope she is doing OK.

Scorpette · 29/10/2010 22:34

I ain't done nuffink much out of the ordinary (still sick as a dawg), but TYF has doted on me (breakfast and pressies in bed, secretly made the house gorgeous before I got up, etc.) and everyone has sent me lovely messages, wishes, cards, etc. (except for Boss un-friend who sent me a further bonkers msg wishing me dead, etc. - unhinged loonies are always a welcome birthday treat), so it's been pretty good, all considered.

Sorry you've got hurty bits, AncientsofMooMoo. That there baybee is far too comfy in there, huh? Kisses for you and DietCokie's hurty back.

Pls to honeymoo and silver posting photos of their cervii (? Wink ) for the ESHperts appraisal?

CurlyCasper · 30/10/2010 09:11

Scorpette · 30/10/2010 12:29

CHICK-CHICK, CHICK-CHICK-CHICKEN! LAY A LITTLE BAYBEE FOR MEEEEEE!

OP posts:
rollerbaby · 30/10/2010 14:18

Ha ha ha ha!!! Sorry to disappoint you all. No baybee here... I reckon silver is on the way though! I just did doglet walk and lunch which was very nice apart from other dog trying to shag ours in the pub.

silver where art thou?

Backinthebox · 30/10/2010 14:20

Moo - booorrrrr-innnng! But you're right, Silver really ought to be busy by now. Busier than usual, that is!

rollerbaby · 30/10/2010 14:32

I know. But she really does deserve to go first and I didn't want to steal her thunder obviously so I thought I'd stand aside...

I can't bear the suspense.
