New thread as the other one is nearly full Xmas Shock!

Our next baby should be pmgkt's, but I won't if any little cheeky monkey will sneak in before Thursday?

Congratulations toy you ladies who get to celebrate your Christmas with a new bundle of joy.

Been thinking of you all as your due dates approach wondering if i would have been early or late.

I've just tucked my 4 babies up in bed and cant wait to see their faces in the morning.

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas x

Hey april! Hope you and your little ones have a really lovely Christmas, bet they're so excited. I almost wish I was a kid again at this time of year :)

Right, Happy Christmas everyone. Am going to try and keep off the forum for just one day!! Hope people still update with any baby news though!

Just wrote out a really long post and my phone lost it, grr. Too tired to type it out again so in summary, my daughter was born on Sunday morning weighing 5lb 5oz. She is being kept in scbu for monitoring due to being early but seems fine so far.

Well done MrsBug, Prickly, anyone else? Widget is well and truly wedged in and showing no signs of evacuation.

octanegirl · 26/12/2012 10:04

Congrats MrsBugsy!
I've had two Christmases, one with my family and one with DP's. I now have a lot of bottles and jars of stuff from Neals Yard!
38 weeks today. Baby can come now, please...

Hope everyone had lovely Christmases :)

And happy Christmas everyone!

Brugmansia · 26/12/2012 14:13

Happy Christmas everyone.

Did anyone else get much baby related stuff as presents? We didn't get much but my mum couldn't resist putting a few little things in dp and my stockings. Do got some tent tiny socks and I got some little vests.

Dp also got me the tablet I asked for that I hope will be useful for using one handed while breast feeding etc once DC is here.

MarasmeAbsolu · 26/12/2012 15:23

Congrats MrsBugsy!

I got a bottle of Chambord raspberry liquor Grin
We had decided not to do presents for us, given that the house renovation have been costly.
No baby presents either, since we have most stuff from DD....

MamaMary · 26/12/2012 16:14

Brug DH jokingly said he was going to get me a breast pump for Christmas....Didn't happen thankfully :) Perfume for me instead!

allchik · 26/12/2012 18:25

PricklyPickleInAPearTree · 26/12/2012 22:03

Congrats Bugsy I hope you're feeling well and enjoying your little one.

We've finally picked a name for our little girl, after much debate we've settled on Amy. She's utterly captivating, we can't stop staring at her. She's being very well behaved so far and we've been getting more sleep than I expected, I'm sure that will change soon enough.

My milk has been coming in over the last day or so, it really hurt Confused. One of my boobs became really engorged and too solid for the baby to get anything out of it. I used a manual breast pump on it and it felt soooo much better and now Amy can feed quite happily from it. I don't know what I would have done without the pump. I can't believe how big my boobs are now, I've always been a bit lacking in that area and now I feel like Barbara Windsor!

Christmas has completely passed me by this year, its taken second place to having a new person to look after. Merry Christmas anyway ladies. I hope you've all had a lovely time.

I wonder who will be the next of us to pop?

MarasmeAbsolu · 26/12/2012 22:15

Lovely name prickle!

I was wondering - has anyone got the latest version of the list on Excel?

happyhow · 27/12/2012 04:43

That's a lovely name Prickly and congrats to Bugsy!!

4am seems to be my standard wake up time now... I'm not sore or uncomfortable, I'm just awake. Sometimes I 'need' the toilet other times not. It's so frustrating!!! Confused

We spent yesterday unpacking boxes and avoiding my mother in law. I'm sure that's what everyone does on Boxing Day!!!

bealos · 27/12/2012 09:30

Congrats to Bugsy!

I was wondering about the list too... Bugsy's been the one who's been the most organised!

Got some very cute baby things - tiny knitted socks, handmade cardi (love that cute knitted look!) and a tiny cuddly sheep and 'Kiwi' babygro from NZ!
