Hooray for the wedding progression BB- do you have a date for the wedding?

Hi everyone else - so tired today, I cannot think straight so sorry if I missed anyone.

GBL x

AllthatshewantsisanotherBBaby · 16/04/2012 15:20

GBL we have indeed now its paid for, 1pm
4th May 2013! Eek it doesn't feel long! Its crazy though as when we called fri they had all times avail when i paid today i took the last one! How crazy!

It means its all really happening bow so the diet starts today!

McKayz · 16/04/2012 17:41

I have good news!!!!

I had my scan this afternoon. Well Baby McKayz is measuring slightly higher than average. Today she weighs 3lb 14oz which is quite nice compared to the 4lb 4oz she weighed 9 days ago. The MWs are not impressed with the private scan place as apparently it is quite common to have women in scared they have big or tiny babies. She is also head down now.

So I can still have a home birth!!!!

Also DH got me a Kindle today as my early birthday present!!

BB YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SESthebrave · 16/04/2012 19:58

McKayz - that is great news about your scan and also fab about the Kindle. I've told myself that if I do have to sit it out in hospital for 2 weeks due to baby's position, I'm definitley getting one!

BB - how exciting! Another wagon wedding :)

GBL - hope tiredness wasn't too bad today and you can get some good rest tonight.

Tink - sounds like I need to get Draw Something!

Hope everyone else is well :)

I keep hearing about more people at work that have been made redundant which is :( but still no one that I was particularly close to. I can also see how the restructure makes sense but it's tough on those that have to lose their jobs. I have to record a conference call tomorrow for my team to phone in on later in the week to explain the restructure to them. None of them are directly affected and I do have a script so hopefully won't be too bad!

Starshinetiger · 16/04/2012 23:46

Kayz - yay for good appt! Glad things went well - well done with shopping too :-)
BB - congrats on wedding payment. How exciting to have date set!
Ses - good luck with conf call.
Ginger - scan this week? Excited for you!
Hi everyone else.... Just checking in before bed... Failed on early night again :-/

Gingerbreadlatte · 17/04/2012 06:25

Morning all Grin

Kayz - so pleased about the scan and green light for the home birth. I've got a kindle and it's fab though I keep spending too much money on books as its so easy to press buy Blush Grin Am reading it now on my train to London Smile

Ses - sorry for hearing about more redundancies. It's such unsettling news. Hope you are on the count down though. Do you have all the babies things ready?

Bb- great news for the wedding. That time will fly by! :)

Hello Star Smile scan is Monday. Can't wait to be able to tell people. It's getting harder to hide the sack of spuds under my clothes! Grin

Tink- how are you?

It's so cold here, doesn't feel like April Sad

Bye for now. X

McKayz · 19/04/2012 21:13

Wahoo Tink I hope the interview goes well. Enjoy Steps too.

BB I have got everything crossed that you're up the duff!!!

I need a whine and a moan. Sad I am shattered. I'm getting a decent amount of sleep most nights just waking for a wee once usually. I have never ending heartburn and I'm massive. I have a doctor appointment tomorrow to try and get something other than gaviscon. Last night I was up most of the night as nothing worked on the heartburn.

DH goes to work on May 5th and I am dreading the school runs. I usually love walking but I don't think walking roughly 26 miles a week is all the good for me at the minute.

AllthatshewantsisanotherBBaby · 20/04/2012 07:40

Well antihonk from me no bfp! CD 40 and not clue where AF is! Getting fed up with the whole thing now!

tinkcantwaittomove · 20/04/2012 12:59

baby - thankyou Grin enjoy ur wkend
kay - poor u !!
baby - Sad hope u get an answers

off to 02 at 2pm to see steps Grin with hubby

SESthebrave · 20/04/2012 20:53

BB - sorry for no BFP. Do I remember that you had a long cycle last month too? V frustrating!

tink - enjoy Steps!

McKayz - I sympathise :( I can imagine the school run will take a little longer than it used to...

Ginger - not long til scan :)

Nursery have said DS just doesn't seem himself the last couple of days. Not really naughty but not listening and a bit quieter than usual. He's also had a wee accident both days (and then another one at home this evening). Can't work out what the problem is. Could be a urine infection or sensing change coming with the baby or the fact that he's bored in the nursery room as he's been doing trial days in pre-school. Wish I knew!! He doesn't have a temperature and seems fine otherwise except maybe being a little bit more demanding. (Eg at bedtime tonight he kept changing his mind about which story he wanted so after we'd changed once I refused to change again.)
Any ideas??

Also wondering about what to get him for his birthday. A friend of mine said he'd got his 3yo a leapster explorer here and that it had been a big hit and helped him with learning letters and writing. Have any of you seen one? What do you think?

Had my leaving do last night (although one more week at work still). We went to All Bar One near Waterloo. It was a good evening and I didn't get home to bed until nearly 2am so will probably head off soon as I've got work again tomorrow!

Hope you're all ok and have nice things planned for the weekend (even if it's chillaxing!)

AllthatshewantsisanotherBBaby · 21/04/2012 21:27

Just a quickie

Kayz Sad for uncomfortableness!

Ses yup long cycles are the norm here since jan last year (and before that but havent got my notes anymore) my cycles have been as short as 12 days an as long as 57! Im guessing that they are annovulatory.. God only knows but i am feeling tested at the moment! Hope you find out whats bothering O, its hard to judge! Re O bday, im considering explorer for A, but heard good things about innotab also, but think its aimed at slightly older child? I quite like the cameras they have brought out, i'd e interested to see the pics!

Wave to all!

Gingerbreadlatte · 23/04/2012 07:10

Morning all

BB- sorry for the BFN and the long cycles. I was there for so many years and it was so frustrating and I wasnt even TTC then. Do you have other PCOS symptoms?

Ses- sorry for O worries. Im wondering if it could be age related?. Or due to trying pre-school? The preschool move triggered a whole load of weird terrible 3s behaviour for us. Not listening, being silly, odd accidents (due to so much going on I think). We are still there - the listening/ contraryness and defiance are still there and showing no signs of shifting. On plus side when she is lovely she is amazing Grin

Happy bday to someone - wont say who incase you dont want to be outed!

Hi Tink- how was the concert?

It's scan day!!!!!!!!!!! Grin Very excited !!

While excited about that, SPD/ PGP already striking here Sad Had hints of it since 8wks but now its really not great. I did some hoovering on sat and was in agony, similar feeling of being 'broken' to when I was 30plus wks last time. Seeing osteo tomorrow, wearing mat belt and hoping for the best but in truth Im quite worried about where it will be taking me. Im hoping early intervention with the osteo will help Confused

Gingerbreadlatte · 23/04/2012 07:12

Sorry Kayz- sorry for being uncomfy... sympathy re heartburn hell. I took zantac in the last 3 months last time as it was so bad (as well as the tablets etc). It wasnt prescribed but i'd researched it online.. (obviously reliable! Hmm ) but I did ask my Dr about it last week and he said that while its not licensed for pregnancy (is anything?) ladies take it without issue.

Ses- do you have a view?

McKayz · 23/04/2012 07:59

Ginger I hope scan goes well. Dr gave me Omeprazole and it's amazing!

Happy bloody birthday to me!!

Ds2 has got up covered in spots. I don't know what chicken pox really looks like but that's what we are thinking it is. So looks like meal etc will have to be canceled. Sad

Starshinetiger · 23/04/2012 12:34

Good luck/enjoy scan today, GBL.
Happy Birthday, Kayz. Sorry for potential chicken pox for DS2 - it looks like bright pink/red spots randomly on parts of body if it's chicken pox. Hope you still get some treats today!
Sorry for BFN BB. Yay for wedding date to look forward to though.
Just a dashing post...

Gingerbreadlatte · 23/04/2012 16:16

Back from scan- all looking good.

Can tell people now... weird now we can, I kind of like the secret!

Sorry for Chicken pox Kayz :(
