Due in Dec 05 - The wind up to the countdown!!!!!!

[sweetheart]

OK, well we've needed a new thread for ages so I've taken it upon myself to start it.

Good luck ladies - we are nearly down to the last month

35 + 2 or should I say "T minus 4wks 5 days"!

evening you two...what time did the meet finish? AM just joining the yahoo site so I can nose at pics..lol

Hi Nemo,
Finished at 3.30pm, after some lovely puddings - have a look at the photos & guess which menu we are looking at!!

They are the only preggie photos of me so far!! No wonder, I really am a beach ball!
But can you guess who is who?? (Obviously not on the ones where the names are in the title!!!)

ooo george guess the beachball...lol

I recognise bonkerz at the front with DS
is the three wise bumps
george at front
then sh
then dq????

actually my dh was fine, if abit shellshocked from dd2 playing him up so. LOL. he took me shopping for some clarins body lotion and then home
i do hope i behaved okay at meet, was very relaxed with you guys........
nemo they are all very nice, wish you could of made it. i think my bump was biggest..............george and ninah are tiny! well okay not tiny but tiny compared to me.
sweetheart and i have similar bumps- hard round and very compact, all at the front.
i have never had lunch with pg ladies before, it was awesome!
I have some pictures to add too. am 'working on them'

hey ladies!! how did the meet-up go?? im soooo disappointed that i couldnt come but spent a nice day with my mum instead! ah well i hope you all had a GREAT time!
WOW FLUTTER thats brilliant news that everythin is all ok with you and your lovely new son!! how does it feel to be a fully fledged mummy?? im dead chuffed for you an a little !!

1 out of 3 Nemo!!

DQ, were you looking at the right person?? Have you seen the photos??? Tiny???
Your DH is a star. How lovely of him to treat you.

Ei, glad you had a good day. Still very that it's my fault your DH booked the wrong day off work.
(I managed to turn up for the meet 1 hour early too, don't trust anything I say! )

and blimey flutter, he was a good weight wasnt he? how lovely for you.

dont go encouraging dh george, he was quite good to do this, but 'star' is pushing it abit ......and hes already living off it....i have just run him a bath after cooking his dinner and hes now 'very tired'

and dd2 got a heap of blackmail (toys) while he was wondering about the shops, she may have small fingers but she has daddy firmly wrapped around them!!!

nemo how did you know who was me? do I look like a DQ then??LOL
ei, glad your day was good. we missed you!

mmm 1 out of 3
well take it I have DQ right??????

Are you and SH the other way around???? so sh in black top and then you.

my goodness! youre right. sure you werent hiding on another table????

i dont know DQ you just look how i imagined you to look.

is that good or bad?????????no, wait dont tell me!

Yep, with a bit of help from DQ, that's us!

You can tell me on the next one, I'm the one gnawing at the sweet menu

Oh wow,flutter,do tell me more...when u feel up to it of course..what a lovely size xxxxgrt name too,how are you doing?

HOW do i look at the pics on yahoo?glkad everyone had a grt time and that u are still all friends..lol how is everyone?

Congratulations flutter! Wow!

And it's great you all had such a good time at the meet-up. I'm about to go and check out the photos now but thought I'd post first (because its a double bill of Eastenders tonight so may get distracted!).

Saw midwife today, still breech, seeing consultant next Wed for scan and date for ECV (assuming baby doesn't turn).

Hope all is well for everyone. And all the best to flutter and family! I can't believe it's happening so soon, I'm no where near ready. I said I'd leave Christmas shopping, packing nursery bag and washing baby clothes until early december but I think I may have to revise that...

congrats flutter - it's so lovely to hear from you - I'm really pleased everything turned out so well for you!

Just wanted to pop on and say it was great to meet you all this afternoon - don't know what I was pnaicing about

I was really tired when I got home - too much excitement for one day I guess, how sad am I!!!

Anyway, such lovely ladies - hope to do it again soon, perhaps with the babies in tow and a few more Dec mummies

isnt it mad how tired we are from........er....doing very little but my back is killing me!!
wish I'd taken more pictures.....but it was so lovely to just sit and chat.
will put my photos on asap.
I think the idea with babies in tow is v funny.....sounds like bedlam to me!!! i still say we all get webcams!!!!
babygibbon, ugh, sorry the beanies still breech. heres hoping he turns just before that appointment! and just for peace of mind get some baby things bought and sorted, we are alllllllllllll so close its scary! or is just me thats freaking slightly!

Congrats, flutter!!!

dont worry george hun it was my own fault for not checkin the meet up thread sooner!! i cuda organised myself a bit better!! ah well am glad you all had a great time and if theres gonna be another meet up i will deffo go to that one even wit a baby in tow!!
oooo ill have to check the yahoo board in a sec an play 'guess the beachball' as you are all callin it!!

hi all,
Left Basingstoke at 5pm and didnt get back to Leicester till 8pm! Traffic backed up from Botley in Oxford to J10 on M40! One whole hour of stop start and as you can imagine im stiff and in pain! Just off for a bath to help relax a bit.
It really was great meeting you all today! Thanks Jaysfirst for letting DS eat your chips!! Really dont know where my boy puts all the food (nothing like his mum) I hope my DS didnt cause too much annoyance!!!!
Where are these dodgy photos then?
Nemo: Glad GTT was fine! What were we saying about idiot hospitals assuming size is a direct factor of gestational diabetes! IDIOTS!!!! Well we both proved them wrong didnt we
FLUTTER! CONGRATULATIONS on the birth of your boy! Well done babe and enjoy him! Am so .

Blooming typical, DH got up with DS and DSD this morning to take DS to school so i could lay in! HUH, Well i was up at 8.30 after laying in bed awake from 8am!!
Had a horrid dream last night and feel really low today! I dreamt i had Alex and the hospital just said OK GO HOME after an hour of her being born, noone came to see me and Alex wouldnt feed or anything. My own daughter hated me feel really tearful now and panicking about how i will cope with a baby girl!!

Doesn't sound like you are having much luck Bonkerz. I bet you were in agony by the time you got home.
Your DS is lovely, and you will be fine when Alex is born. Sounds like you have overdone it a bit, medicinal choccy & sofa for you today.

You reminded me that I dreamt I had the baby last night, weird, weird, dream. It must be the news that Flutter has had George has set us off.

DP was fascinated last night by the whole Mumsnet thing & me meeting up with you guys. I'm quite a private person usually so he finds it strange that I'm happy to tell people, who I don't even know the real names of, things that I haven't told close family & friends. I think he is just a bit as you know what he is getting for Christmas and he doesn't

LOL, maybe flutters news has set us all of.
I was in agony last night and had a nice bath but ended up needing lots of help to get out! Dh said any longer in the bath and the japenese whalers would have been round!! Charming!!!
Hate feeling like this! Need to find something to do to occupy myself! Right am going to get some paint for Bens room!!!!!!! So much for a lazy day!!!
Got midwife at 1.50pm so just hope she doesnt want me to go in!
Thanks George, will make sure i get lots of chocolate today!

FLUTTER OMG many congrads to you and dad.... He was a fine weight and a right little fighter.. So glad it over you now, you can start to enjoy you bundle.. Wishing you 3 all the best..

Well this is it girls who will be next????

hey ladies
sounds like a nightmare trip home bonkerz, glad you are home safe tho
goodness I had a dream I went into labour last night too!! dont know if it was flutters news or the fact i went to bed with backache!!! mad mad dreams!
am busy designing dhs christmas card, its abit toungue in cheek......i do hope he has sense of humour when he opens it. (he does, he hates slushy cards)
so george.what DID you say to your dh about us??LOL
