Oh bun she is amazingly cute and looks a lot like your gorgeous DS already! Love the chocolate buttons trick! Grin
ghost I'm glad you have a nice big room and that your DH can stay over now - I assume he was having to go home at night before? Hope tomorrow is your day! Smile
davina a ride on train set?! Shock sounds amazing! Smile

Thanks ladies! We got bumped to an even nicer family room yesterday so now have en suite and a big sofa - it's lovely! And Jools was a star last night so we all just slept around her feeds - I had more sleep last night than I got in 3 days on the ward!

Yes, visiting hours were 9-9 on the ward for fathers, but because of my BP I'm not allowed to be on my own, so he's actually had to stay for the last two nights. He's going a bit stir crazy but had a break for a couple of hours yesterday while SIL was here. Smile

Oh that's good then ghost, I wouldn't fancy being separated from DH with our brand new baby all those nights, doesn't seem right!

Yay Ghost and Jools!!! Whoop whoop!

There's been a BFP in the conception thread. I'm really excited!

aBundanceOfTime · 23/01/2012 12:13

Oh Ghost!! I'm so happy for you, what a bloody relief! Smile

Does anyone know Ghost's address so we can put up banners and streamers for her homecoming? We could have cake and pom poms too! Grin

OoooooOh! mamma thanks for the BFP alert! Exciting!!

Lilly doesn't sleep between 11pm and 6am. At all. Yawn.

Carlitawantsababy · 23/01/2012 12:14

Yay ghost! GrinGrinGrinGrinGrin
Thanks for the alert mamma, haven't visited for ages! Smile

Carlitawantsababy · 23/01/2012 12:16

OMG! Not just any BFP, it's babybrain!!! Grin hooray!!! GrinGrinGrin

ghosteditor · 23/01/2012 12:23

Grin good news all round then today!!!

Jools is doing some of her best sleeping right now, so I'm sure she's going to want to be awake all afternoon keeping us busy! It's fab that she's awake a bit more now - we've hardly seen her eyes yet! I think the hot ward was making her sleepy too.

Wink

Congratulations to Ghost family for making it home! Thanks

babybrain3 · 24/01/2012 07:04

Hi everyone, I'm back!! Grin just need to spend some time catching up Wink wow 2babies already!!! Congratulations bun and ghost!!

Got my BFP yesterday, so will be due 3 October- 2 days before my 30th... Confused I thanked DP for my special birthday present when I found out yesterday!!!

I'm just slightly apprehensive about whether this one is going to be good and stay where it is!!!

Don't think I'm going to make an appt at the docs til next week.

Carlitawantsababy · 24/01/2012 07:48

Hooray! Welcome back babybrain! I realise it must be scary but just read about mamma's healthy little one, stay positive! Smile
What a lovely birthday present that will be, you might even share a birthday! My birthday's on the 9th so very close but had my 30th last year (sober like yours will likely be but all the more special of course!) so what was your DP's reaction like? How's he feeling about it? Smile

Carlitawantsababy · 24/01/2012 07:52

bun I missed it where you said Lilly is not sleeping at all 11-6! Goodness, you must be shattered! So must she! Is she sleeping a lot in the day instead?

ghosteditor · 24/01/2012 13:23

Congratulations babybrain! My little one was due Jan 12, 11 days before my birthday, so I was afraid I'd have a little birthday stealer Wink. As it happens she arrived last week on the 18th and we got out of hospital yesterday, on my birthday proper Grin.

Happy birthday ghost! What a good present! Grin

MammaInTheMaking · 24/01/2012 16:15

Happy birthday Ghost!!

I'm just on my way home from a meeting in Manchester. I do this trip quarterly from South London, there and back in a day. Duno if I'll manage this in 3 months time, I'm pooped!!!

Kayzr · 24/01/2012 17:41

What a lovely birthday present Ghost

toddle · 24/01/2012 20:21

Hello long lost friends Smile

I couldnt find you Sad (maybe something to do with me looking in pregnancy) so thanks for the link.

Hope everyone is well. I guess I also have a massive catch up to get on with.

Congrats on the baby's we have already

elliebug · 24/01/2012 22:16

Happy birthday and welcome home ghost Smile
Toddle, I couldn't find this thread for ages!!! I had to do some mn investigating to find it! Hope you're well

Carlitawantsababy · 24/01/2012 22:35

Hooray toddle! How've you been? Grin

Davinaaddict · 25/01/2012 07:06

Hooray for finally being home ghost and belated Happy Birthday Thanks

Welcome back babybrain Sending lots of positive thoughts for your little bean Smile

I don't envy you the travel Mamma My last trip to London was December, so at about 5 months and I don't think I could have done another trip like that since. It's sooooo tiring! These days, if I have to be in the office more than once a week, I spend the weekend napping Blush Although I've only got 45 days til D Day do that might have something to do with it Grin I've been up since 3.30am this morning so today us going to be a seriously long one Shock < that's a yawn Grin

Hey toddle - nice to have you back with us Smile How are things with you? Yes loooots to catch up on.

aBundanceOfTime · 25/01/2012 12:36

Another happy belated birthday Ghost, hope you had a lovely day Smile

So lovely to have you back babybrain and toddle! Good luck with the catch up! Grin

Carlita I was completely pooped! She's been sleeping very well through the day, naturally! Thankfully last night was much more civilised, waking for feeds every 2 hours and lots of lovely snuggles in between Smile

Had midwife visit yesterday, Lilly's lost 5% of her birth weight so I'm very happy with that (they're happy if it's below 10%). Got her to check over her latching on and all looking good Smile I'm so relieved that BFing is going so well it was such a source of stress with DS.

Just had a phone call from the children's hospital and they've booked us in for an ultrasound tomorrow afternoon to have a look at the cyst! So glad they're doing it so soon. Nervous already though!
