JK10 · 07/08/2013 00:17

just and overley welcome up the thread! And congratulations.

With regards to the Facebook thing, so do u friend request then private chat? Sorry I'm not so good on these things!!

Think it ws F&T who was asking about scans? I haven't had a scan yet my first scan will be when I an 13 +3.

I'm such an idiot today!! Me, the kids and a few others went on a half hr train journey to tonbridge, to have lunch and a day at the park! Suddenly realise I no longer can find my phone, text DP from friends phone who rang my phone, some fella answered he had my phone at Hastings station which is 1hr15 from me on the coast!! So said goodbye to my friends at 5.00 and had to carry on down the line to collect my phone! Walked down to the beach so the kids could play for 20mins before making the 1hr15 min journey home again with my phone that was kindly and surprisingly handed it! Finally got back to my car at 93o this eve! My 4 kids and me totally shattered! Must remember not to leave my phone on train! Muppet! Especially when retrieving it with a 23mth old, 3 year old, 6 year old and 8year old after a busy day at the park! Was rather hard going! Bless em!

IceNoSlice · 07/08/2013 05:27

Oh no JK! How funny though, and good that it was handed in. Hopefully the kids will sleep in!

HotCrossPun · 07/08/2013 06:48

I'm so tireeeeeeed!

I feel bad complaining, because I haven't had much nausea/sickness, but I'm exhausted.

I'm due to finish up work at the end of the month and start my own business. We are on a temporary contract and rumour has it we may get our weeks notice within the next few days. I think I must be the only employee in the whole place who is actually looking forward to getting sacked Grin

How is everybody feeling today?

Lets keep our fingers crossed that we all have a good day &&&&

FrankelInFoal · 07/08/2013 07:18

I'm suffering with a cold. It's not really bad but enough to make me feel rotten. It's been hanging round for about a week and I'm through the coughing/sneezing stage and am now just full of snot/phlegm . Normally I'd just take lots of drugs and kill it dead, but that's not an option now!

I'm definitely interested in the Facebook group, but rather than tempt fate I shall wait until after my 12w scan before adding myself. Of course, god knows when that will be as I'm still waiting for a date from the hospital Hmm

commsgirl · 07/08/2013 07:38

Morning all Smile

Finally joining in after lurking since the first thread! I'm due March 18th with baby number one. It's taken me a while to feel like I actually want to post, but I've followed all your stories and hope you don't mind that I'm a little late to the party! I'll echo what overly said about you all being very lovely ladies.

JK sounds like a nightmare! Glad you all (and the phone) got home in one piece.

Pram I hope you're feeling better after your wobble. It's completely normal, especially when you've waited so long.

To all the sick/hungry people - I feel your pain! I'm starving but all I can actually manage is dry toast and soup Sad.

I've got an early scan tomorrow at 8+2. It's our first baby and we both just want to know everything's happening as it should!

Rockchick1984 · 07/08/2013 08:03

Ugh, worst stomach upset EVER last night an still feel rough this morning Sad no idea what's caused it but was so painful, and now I'm just so tired, don't know how I'm going to get through today!

JustCallMeBaldrick · 07/08/2013 08:10

OK, thicko here! How do I link to my FB? Please can I blame preggy brain? Grin

rescoonetwothree · 07/08/2013 08:26

oh pram Blush let's leave our partners and run off into the sunset, i second cool though and think you'll go for a young mum!

ice i also think greymoose is much better, and honestly much more fitting!

for the Facebook thing it's basically like this but on Facebook, so with shiny pictures and stuff, so once you're in the group everyone sees the posts etc - i have to add you to me personal otherwise i cant add you to the group

if you don't know your link / want to be added i will send you my link in a pm and then you can add me and we'll do it that way

rescoonetwothree · 07/08/2013 08:28

sorry to clarify when i say everyone sees the posts, i mean only those in the group no one else can see it!

JK10 · 07/08/2013 08:44

Thanks for your link grey so would anyone know u have joined that group either? Sorry! I'm planning on keeping this pg a secret until April next yr!!!

PramQueen1971 · 07/08/2013 08:50

Frank, what is your hospital playing at?

Welcome, Comms. I'm refusing to wobble today. We'll see how that goes Hmm

First stint volunteering at the charity shop this morning. Manager wants me in at 10am 'just for an hour or so'. What's the betting I'll be back home at 11.30? Bloody killed me getting up just now

PramQueen1971 · 07/08/2013 08:52

JK, no. None of your regular fb mates will know about this separate group nor will anyone but us Martians have access to it. It's like being in the SAS or summat (but with less guns)

rescoonetwothree · 07/08/2013 08:52

jk no one can see anything, it's a 'secret' group so only those in the group can see anything to do with it! xx

PramQueen1971 · 07/08/2013 08:52

...and I don't think we'll have to march for 30 miles or owt and eat worms or shit in the woods.

rescoonetwothree · 07/08/2013 08:53

pram i second the like being in the sas sentiment

PramQueen1971 · 07/08/2013 09:08

Sorry, Grey, I can't hear you 'cos of me helmet.

MTBMummy · 07/08/2013 09:19

Morning all,

Welcome, Overly, Just and Comms - the more the merrier - I'll sort our stats page out and do some fresh graphs again today.

I'm feeling crap - went to bed early (21:30) with the plan to get a nice lie in as I'm working from home, but noooo.... DD woke up at 3am, then there were some fucking geese honking for what seemed like hours and DP snoring often enough to keep me awake constantly - I really could kill this morning, I've been in tears, I feel sick, starving, ang DP is alerady making comments about me eating to much, but it seems to be the only thing that stops me wanting to be sick...

And to make matters worse, I'm not even allowed to have any form of caffeine, even decaff due to my heart condition... If anyone reads of a mass murder in West Berkshire today - it was me...

Sorry for the rant, I feel so pathetic knowing there are people on here going through so much worse

THIS is how I feel this morning - hopefully it will raise a smile or two

Thanks Grey for setting up the FB group, I have pm'd you my profile

rescoonetwothree · 07/08/2013 09:39

mtb that is my new favourite website! brilliant!

have people started telling anyone yet?

any more scans to come this week?

MummyPig24 · 07/08/2013 09:46

MTB there were loads and loads of geese flying over last night honking so so loudly! I don't know what they are up to but there were tonnes of them!

I'm sooooo tired. I say it every post, but I am! I'm nauseous and grouchy.

Lambchop14 · 07/08/2013 09:57

Comms, are you paying for a private scan? It's my first too but waiting till my 12 week scan.

Teddybear4 · 07/08/2013 10:00

MTB - That made me laugh!

commsgirl · 07/08/2013 10:02

MTB that's hilarious. The website, not your lack of sleep! There's nothing wrong with ranting.

grey we've told a few people - I hate lying/keeping secrets so for me it was just much more stressful not telling people. I've only told my managers at work, but I've already had two colleagues comment on the fact that they've never seen me eating carbs and now all I eat is toast.

I've got an early scan tomorrow.

commsgirl · 07/08/2013 10:05

lamb yes we are. Dp knows someone though so it's only costing £40. I don't think I would have paid much more but feel very lucky!

Beccadugs · 07/08/2013 10:19

Welcome to the newbies!!

I am still (a week now) having brown spotting. It is making me so anxious that something has gone wrong.

Still feeling pretty dire too, which doesn't help. I must be the only sad miser who wants the sunshine to F off. For some reason it is making me feel worse, perhaps because I am too sick to go out in it.
