Impressed by that man soda!! Glad DH is looking after you! I like your toenail polish.

Mileymoocow · 24/08/2016 19:47

Another one excited for Bake Off!! Grin I know Audrey loves it too!

LOL soda! Trousers? In pregnancy? Is she serious?! Also your poor feet! The people on the train sound like complete knobs Angry I'm still considering the massage but will see!

hep yay that there's a nice little heartbeat though! That's exciting Grin

danni it's amazing that you have an actual latest date! I can't wait til I'm given a definite 'baby will be here by...'. Hopefully you won't go over due though.

bunch I'm glad you survived but there was no doubt in my mind you'd do brilliant. You've taken to this whole mum thing so bloody well. Sorry your mum is being a pain though. Wether she's frustrated or not she definitely shouldn't be being mean to you when you have enough on your plate!

I've just been sick again. Felt nauseous for an hour or so then had to dash waddle to the toilet to barf. This is 5 days in a row now and I need it to piss off. No more plug though Grin

IndiX · 24/08/2016 20:02

I'm excited for bake off too!

Bloody knackered, achey and just had to pack for going back to Liverpool for 10 days. I also have to do the 6 hour drive tomorrow with 2 dogs...not looking forward to it one bitSad but I have my baby shower on Sunday so it'll be nice seeing all my friends and family.

Hep sorry you're not as far along as you thought but at least you have a healthy little bean in there!

Soda your poor feet! Also I can't believe what bastards people on trains are to preggo women.

Great scans Leonie and may! Welcome to team pink mayGrin
*
Shelb* I've never wanted someone to lose more of their plug and go in to labour than you! Come on baby ShelbStar

Sorry if I've missed anyone. My eyes are going cross eyed im that tired but I'm going to eat some sweets and watch bake off and then get in bed!

Canters15 · 24/08/2016 20:15

Gosh it's so hot! Have had a lovely day off ambling around and got my hair done, feeling much less frumpy now!

I'm so excited for bake off, I love it!

Oh poor you bunch. My mum has form for being a bit difficult too so I can sympathise.

This is totally outing, but my husband has just got a new job offer.....in Singapore!! We might be emigrating with a 10 week old!

Canters15 · 24/08/2016 20:17

Oh and congrats on your girl may! And glad you have a bean with a heartbeat hep, though this is now going to feel like the longest pregnancy ever for you now!

BunchOfBobs · 24/08/2016 21:11

Miley thank you, that's lovely of you to say. I don't feel it.

Had our first screaming session this evening- through bake off too the little scamp. No idea what was up with him, we're thinking my antibiotics and really hopeful that's the end of tonight's meltdowns but we shall see.
Had a breakthrough with mum when I text her about Atticus screaming. I think she feels quite unneeded by me as Inhavent text or phones in a panic about not knowing how to look after Atticus and she is struggling with it. I don't think the way she handles it is right but I do understand her a bit more now.

Oh wow Canters how exciting!

AudreyBradshaw · 24/08/2016 21:20

Got GBBO on record! Am actually making am actual cake as we speak! Exciting! Can't wait! Woohoooooo! 🍰🍩🍰🍩🍰🍩🍰

shelbTa · 24/08/2016 21:29

Aw indi thanks - don't think will be tonight though. I've suggested DTD to oh but my nipples are like dustbin kids and my hair is ridiculously tufty -so can see how he's potentially guna say no!!!

shelbTa · 24/08/2016 21:30

*dustbin lids!!

PotatosMum · 24/08/2016 23:15

Hey peeps,

Just checking in. Haven't read through as not been having time. Arya's been having trouble with wind so up most of the night with her. She's lovely though!

Midwife visit today, did heel prick test which was far more traumatic for me to watch than Arya to experience. Arya's very well and my stitches are healing perfectly.

shelb, Pink can't wait to pop in and see you're in labour!

Ladies with babies, how are your little ones coping with the heat? What are you dressing then in?

Hope everyone else is well, looking forward to catching up when I can!!

So my waters went in bed at 11 pm and here I am in hospital waiting for a caesarean. Please could you keep your fingers crossed and pray for me and baby? I am very nervous and worried.

PotatosMum · 25/08/2016 02:44

OMG Leonie how terribly scary for you! Have every faith in the Drs, they know what they're doing. Arya and I will be thinking of you and hoping all goes well xxx

Thinking of you Leonie. It must be so scary for you xxx

Danni89 · 25/08/2016 04:44

Thinking of you leonie, hope baby gets here safe and sound and you both recover well #ThreadbabyNo4! Xx

IrregularCommentary · 25/08/2016 05:57

Thinking of you Leonie that must have been so scary. I hope you're getting some rest now and all has gone well with you and baby x

IndiX · 25/08/2016 06:39

Leonie thinking of you and baby, sending you lots of love. I'm sure you were so scared but do have faith in the doctors, I'm sure your beautiful baby will be arrive safe and sound xx

Co5mo · 25/08/2016 06:46

Hope everything has gone to plan overnight and you have a beautiful healthy baby in your arms by now Leonie.

I'm trying to get out of my woe is me phase. Work is still crazy but I'm trying to remind myself as often as possible that there are people on the other end why I'm working so many extra unpaid hours. It's just one of those things with my job but this problem has come along at a really bad time. Counting the days now... 7 1/2 working days to go.

HepKestrel · 25/08/2016 07:00

Thinking of you Leonie good luck!

LisaTheSimpson · 25/08/2016 07:07

Sending you lots of love and hugs Leonie. Hoping everything is going ok x

LaraG13 · 25/08/2016 07:32

Thinking of you leonie xxx

Sodasoda · 25/08/2016 07:37

Sending love and positive thoughts to leonie xx

ElleSarcasmo · 25/08/2016 07:43

Congratulations on your bean Hep! You must be in shock that you're not as far along as you thought. I was definitely bloated at 6 weeks so you're not just getting fat!

Pasturised Brie you say Indi?! I'm super excited!

Audrey hope your DH is doing ok. Sorry about your BIL Sad.

Planet that sucks about your move. Hope it happens quicker than you think.

Haha Feefs, we'll make a fortune! Nothing bloody works so far though!

Soda my feet looked a lot like that yesterday. It's cooler here so they're slightly better but still quite pasty like. Crap isn't it?!

Bunch congratulations on surviving your first day without your DH. You sound like you're doing amazingly. Hope your mum stops giving you a hard time.

May love the cute baby feet pic! Congrats on Team Pink.💕 my DH feels the same about poo in the washing machine-in fact he said if I wanted to buy reusables we'd have to buy a second washing machine!!

Loving the bake off last night! It's just such a little piece of happiness.

I spotted some tiny stretch marks on the bottom of my bump yesterday Sad I'm gutted. I'm going to be one big stretch mark by the end at this rate, I'm only 26+3! I've been bio oiling for ages as well. So. Not. Fair!

ElleSarcasmo · 25/08/2016 07:45

Leonie thinking of you, hope the section goes well Flowers, sorry I had already written the big long post above before I spotted yours. No time until you meet Theo now! Xx
