dec '05- xmas babies! arent they great!!

[ei23mummy]

hey girlies!!
new thread for a new week!!
with our heads held high and our bumps pushed out we can happily say sod 'em to all those grumps who think crimbo is a bad time for new babies!!
whaddya say??
yay to our xmas bubs!!

awful wasnt it?
dh and I have just sat and had the conversation about our next scan. we are trying to move it forward a few days so its before our 4d scan. we are scared something awful may show up on the show 4d scan other wise. got desperately upset at the slightest chance of anything still being wrong. dh has gone out, so thought i would watch some television to take my mind off it. that didnt work then
I'm sorry all over again about you little boy. what a strong lady you have been.

I'm ok most day - just things like that remind me so clearly of what we went through.

Like you say, I had stopped worrying about this bean but watching stuff like that also rakes up all my fears about this pregnancy.

exactly. all rational thought have gone this evening. now paying for it with tight bump and bracton hicks -bought on no doubt to getting upset. I wihs I hadnt sent back my doppler. or had access to a scan machine RIGHT NOW.

yes I can sympathise. Have been getting pains in my sides - a bit like a stitch.

Dh has just gone off to bed so I allowed myself a proper sob. I'm feeling a bit better now, just wish I'd read my TV Times instead of being uncapable of speaking to dd when she asked me if the baby on the telly had died and if they were going to take it outside so it could fly up to heaven Oh god, I'm off again....

we're not doing very well are we?
(hug))
another virtual muffin for you?

I'll pull myself together in a min - just wish I had some bloody chocolate in the house now!!!

have an early night with large hot chocolate?
i think I might try and do some art work, to completely distract me.

How odd you should say that - I just went routing about in my cupboards to try and find something naughty to eat. The only thing I managed to find was hot choc!!!

Right I'm going to calm down for 10 mins then I'm off to bed.

Sweet dreams xxx

and you. large ((hug)) for being such a ...well sweetheart!

gd luck ei xxmorning everyone

Morning everyone,
Good luck at your appointment Ei.
Have you been making brownies Nemo? Yum. I keep meaning to make pancakes, I have everything I need but I can't be bothered by the time I get to evening. I think it's the lemon I'm after.

DQ & SH, sorry you were both a bit teary last night. Hope you both got a good nights sleep & feel better today. {{{{{hugs}}}}}}}

Thought I'd work (?!!) from home again today as yet another rubbish nights sleep. Ping awake at 1.00am again, then 3.00am and restless for the rest of the night. Getting a bit fed up with it now.

What is everyone else up to today?

good luck ei!
I'm a bit behind, but dq, I aspire to be a stay at home mum, having been back at work almost 3yrs now. I know it's hard work but I am really looking forward to spending next year at home with my 2 children (still wondering how that happened, 2 children....). I enjoyed my 8mths off with dd so much and was so sad to go back to work, so fingers crossed I feel the same this time around
Off to a training course now for an hour, can't wait.......

thanks scully nice of you to say so. I do love being a sahm, but sometimes people can make you feel abit like youre missing out/not pulling your weight. wouldnt go back tho!!!
george, yes finally got some sleep, tho like yours its abit crap, not nice and restful!
dh home today so guess we will go out and potter about. feeling abit rough -combination of last nights upset, and achey pains all over, I feel 106!!!!! (i quite prob look it too!)
nemo, dh cooks pancakes??? really must kick mine up the ar*e then as making tea and toast is a novelty for him. bless 'em.

george..brownies being made tommorow when things come in the shopping...can completley sympathise with the lack of sleep, just folded all washing etc and now looking at the ironing pile thinking mmm do I iron or do I snooze on couch..lol

DQ dh is quite a good cook and when home will usually make the tea etc.

Ei forgot to wish you luck for today .

I'm so Nemo, your DH cooks??? Mine can order a take-away - does that count?
I think you should go for the snooze definitely

I'm wallpapering at the moment, nesting has hit again!

Sorry you are feeling rough DQ. Will your DH be looking after you today then? I'm also looking forward to being a SAHM, even if it only lasts for a year. I too will become a baking goddess (well, nice to dream! )

Have fun at your training Scully.

morning all!! thankyou for the 'good lucks' it seems to have paid off for the time being anyway!! my urine results came back as abnormal again (what a surprise!) and thyve put me on another course of ab's to see if it will clear!! different ones tho so fingers crossed!! they said that as long as the infection stays at bay i can giv birth normally!! they said i might have to go for a scan in a few weeks as the baby is presenting as breech and theyv told me as it has been the same for my last appt then theyd like to keep an eye on it!! ill just have to start doing some handstands or somethin to encourage it to move!!
i had the WORST night sleep ever last night!! i gave up on MN at about 1:30am and went to bed i then woke up at about 2:30 with v bad heartburn and ate some rennies and drank some milk!! i then woke up again at 4:00 with the heartburn and tummy pains (tmi but iv got the trots again- not polo induced tho!!) adn i didnt get back to sleep til 5ish only for the alarm clock going off at 6:30 for dp!!! grrr i could have smashed it up- the clock not dp!!
dp went to the chemist and got me gaviscon (eeeeuch!) it helped a little so im gonna have a bit more in a mo!! enough about me.....!!
how is everyone else??

morning all. Been pretty busy with work this morning so haven't had much chance to get on.

Ei, glad to hear your apt was OK. You shold try sitting ona birthing ball if the baby is breach. Sitting forward might help to turn it. I sat on mine for quite a while last night and found it very comfy.

Had quite a good nights sleep - I was pretty tired and emotionally drained which helped.

I'm feeling better today - less emotional and back to the "old" me.

I'm off to meet a friend for lunch in a min so I might treat myself to something nice Ummm love the sound of pancakes Nemo you lucky thing - they are one of my all time fav's. A local restaurant does them filled with vanilla ice cream, drizzled with honey and walnuts!! YUUUMMMYYYY!!!!!!!!!

On the cooking thing - we take it in turns in our house. Although since I've been pregnanct I must admit thats it's been dh's turn rather alot more than mine
