Congratulations massagegirl! And 10 mins of pushing- wow can I order one like that please!

Gorgeous name arlandria!

Great that Nye is doing so well cycle!

As someone said earlier- I hope that the scales show the progress today rue!

Congrats to those who had their homebirths agreed!

I hope everyone else is good too and manages to turn baby/avoid illness/get the earlier birth they're hoping for!

Aloha- sounds like you've had a crazy few days- time for a rest methinks!Smile and you too olimoss!

Well my bump is still being crazy! Hard to work out what's where especially after the acrobatics session as soon as I got into bed last night! (Baby- not me and DH!Grin) baby seems to be a late contender for joining acrobatic troup with babyforgetmenots and babybri!

AlohaMama · 25/05/2013 08:09

Does that mean you're next then oli? At this rate there will be hardly any of us left for june!

MrsBri · 25/05/2013 08:10

Right, if anybody is interested in joining I've set up a secret Facebook group (none of your friends will even know it exists, let alone that you're a member, so won't see what you or anyone else posts) so we can share photos of our offspring.

If you would like to join, and I know some won't, PM me your Facebook name / email address and I'll add you as a friend (my initials are NB) so I can add you.

It would be nice to be able to see the babies we've talked about for months. :-)

MrsBri · 25/05/2013 08:12

AmI, always room for another in the baby acrobats troup! :-)

Aloha, I was thinking that too. Will be me and you bringing up the rear! :-/ Though as it's your second I imagine you'll go before me!

AmIGoingMad · 25/05/2013 08:27

I'm not due til 25th June so I'll probably still be waiting too!

And the Facebook group is a lovely idea mrsbri. But I'm not on there at all. Am probably one of the only people in the world that isn't! On a teacher and it freaks me out a bit in case I get settings wrong!Smile

AmIGoingMad · 25/05/2013 08:27

*am not on

MrsBri · 25/05/2013 08:32

Ah yes, you need to be careful as a teacher.

I'm totally private, I think. People gave trouble adding me as a friend, so I think I've got the settings right!

25th June? Race you then, as my real - not scan - date is 24th June!

redwellybluewelly · 25/05/2013 08:56

I don't do Facebook groups either after someone 'found' me from another parenting website and it all got a bit unpleasant. Pkus I am really cautious neurotic about sharing photos of my children.

Welcome new babies, sounds like quite a few wanted to be on the outside in time for the bank holiday weekend! cycle I'm so so pleased to hear Nye is feeding better, I also hope ypu get home today x

I've got my last pre baby haircut today and off to stock up on birthday presents for the next three months. If I can get everything sorted this weekend it means DH can just drop parcels at the post office. Also sudden urge to clean oven and fridge, and deep clean bathrooms, and wash all the bedding. And why do I want to re wash the baby clothes?!

pinkbear82 · 25/05/2013 09:30

stupid acid reflux - up half the night being sick and coughing and weeing and not sleeping. grrr

so much happening and going on! it's fab. Although I'm due 5 June, there has been word dp could be released early on tag on 14 June - so now everyone is telling me to keep my legs crossed!!

mrsbri fab idea! I shall try and pm u now as on phone if you don't get one send me one and I'll do it that way!

Hawkmoth · 25/05/2013 09:35

Remind me again why we're doing this? Have got germs from my children again. Bad cough and chest hurts. Pfft. Bump having a good old laugh about it for most of the night!

AmIGoingMad · 25/05/2013 09:36

Oo hope you hold on til then Pinkbear that would be great wouldn't it!

You're very organised redwelly! I always wish I'd done things like that but never seem to manage it!

MrsBri · 25/05/2013 09:36

Pink, 75% of first babies are late! Best keep everything crossed! :-)

Sarah2506 · 25/05/2013 09:42

Pink bear, there is only one course of action here. You are going to have to swap due dates with someone:-) So, ladies, who's going to step up and offer?! Mine won't help you- scheduled section on 7th!

Actually slept reasonably last night, by that I mean 1130-7 with one loo break. Meant to be going to Muse tonight but have given ticket away. Think sensible but still tiny bit sad!

OP posts:
MrsBri · 25/05/2013 10:01

Sarah...you gave your Muse ticket away?!?! How could you?

I know what you mean though. I didn't buy one and am gutted as I REALLY want to go. DH is going to Manchester next weekend though. So jealous! I bought him the ticket so can't complain really.

I'll swap with Pink, anything to help!

pinkbear82 · 25/05/2013 10:02

Everything firmly crossed! Smile Although fairly sure I'll get to the point where I'll be cursing dp and want to meet bubs! (especially if this acid reflux carries on!)

really need to actually get up and pop to the shops for some salad bits and Bob's but I'm really not feeling the motivation today. could do with the dog sharing some of his.

Sarah2506 · 25/05/2013 10:19

When I say 'gave away' I mean obviously 'sold'!! I have seen them a few times and once from the VIP area at wembley stadium which was pretty much the best thing ever and could never be topped, so I don't feel too hard done by. I would worry about queues and the loo and getting in and out so just wouldn't be worth it, despite the fact the Emirates is very close so wouldn't be hard to get there and home.

I was way more gutted to miss out on the Yeah Yeah Yeahs but an all standing gig wouldn't be for me right now! But then I got their new album and didn't feel quite so bad...

OP posts:
MrsBri · 25/05/2013 10:30

I've seen them more than 20 times, all over the world, but I'm still gutted about missing out.

Even with unreserved seating I didn't think it wise at such a late stage. I know I wouldn't be comfy on a plastic seat, but also know I can't stand much. And a seated Muse gig is wrong!

At least you discovered you didn't miss anything at the Yeahs gig :-)

Steffanoid · 25/05/2013 10:33

I think this group needs to be re named mainly may babies and some June stragglers Smile

I have done my good deed of the day, dp is usually up before 7 but one of my loo breaks was 10 past and it woke the dog up so I came down and sorted him put and left him in bed till now, I have already had my sweet payback, his mum went to see his brothers lo tge day after she was born and stayed there for a week....she has booked 2 weeks off around my due date, because of the depression and anxiety I dont think it will be good for me and the baby if she stays at the house in the first couple of night's so he's trying to ask Very nicely when she's planning on coming and where she's staying, in a faraway hotel I didn't have to remind him to call as when I went to wake him up she was already on the phone to him, thats karma working in my favour Grin

now to supervise him mowing the grass, do the weekly shop and take something back to mamas and papas.

hope everyone's little ones are behaving and you get to come home soon, my pep talks to the baby have not worked yet

MrsBri · 25/05/2013 10:44

Steff, you need to check your in box!

learnermummy · 25/05/2013 11:22

Congratulations massage girl!

MrsBri I'm not due til 19th June. Can't see this one being early either.

Steffanoid · 25/05/2013 13:05

all checked Mrs bri Smile

RueDeWakening · 25/05/2013 15:07

MrsBri there's already a secret FB group going for June mamas - apparently so secret that most people didn't even know about it Grin

If anyone wants to join it then drop me a pm with how to find you on FB and I'll add you.

MrsBri · 25/05/2013 15:18

Ha ha, is there Rue? I've never seen it mentioned, so it's well kept :-)

I can't be added as a friend unless you're a friend of a friend, so can you PM me how to find you?!

Steffanoid · 25/05/2013 15:56

Mrs bri when you're added to that one will you add me to it? facebook is to confusing for this time of day for me

AmIGoingMad · 25/05/2013 16:27

I hope you're not all going to jump ship in favour of the Facebook group! I'll be very lonely!
