Thought I'd do this and post my last comments:

Hi all. Glad to hear more good scan news!

We had MIL visit this weekend and she is such hard work. She literally never lifted a finger and kept going back to bed every couple of hours. I've asked DP not to let her come again for a while as it's hard work waiting on someone.

We also finally put DS in his 'big boy bed'. Went quite well - he went to bed no problems, but he woke up at 2am crying as he'd got stuck under the duvet. He was then awake for a couple of hours so I'm feeling shattered today. Anyone of you with older children got any tips?

Slinkie we'll be near each other for mat leave won't we? We can have some fun together I'm sure.

Meglet I'm the same as you with the whole bf thing. I hated it last time and was relieved when I gave up. I keep veering to and fro with regards to trying it for this baby. I had such a happy time last time round, really enjoyed the whole experience, and am worried that attempting to bf will make the whole thing fraught.

Has anyone else ever read a MN thread that has made them seeth with anger? Someone please tell me to ignore it and forget it and not to post anything and get drawn into petty arguments...

carrieon, ignore it. forget it and don't get involved.

a lot of mn'ers on this site are really mean. i was reading a thread today with regards to someone whose husband has left her and people were actually telling her it was her fault.... but the mn'ers on this thread in particular are really nice.

lollyheart,
I added you! beautiful wedding picture

lollyheart · 27/05/2008 21:37

Thank you eandz

carrieon · 27/05/2008 22:41

Lollyheart and eandz I've just added you as friends on facebook I hope!

Just had a very productive evening turning up curtains (we only moved here 4 years ago, didn't want to appear over keen) and cutting dd's favourite muslin in half so she now has two. Wonder if she'll notice?!

Have ignored the rude thread, will rise above it and instead go and watch something inspirational on tv, like Britain's Got Talent.

btw, who won Eurovision?

eandz · 27/05/2008 23:05

Carrieon,
I've added you...

Meglet,
I looked for your facebook info but couldn't find it to add you...feel free to add me though. [email protected]

who else wants to make friends on facebook?

Jenbot · 27/05/2008 23:09

Don't streamline me please! I am still reading, but you all post so quickly I feel like I can't keep up so I'm keeping quiet and lurking.

I do still appreciate hearing about other people at the same stage though, what everyone is thinking about buying, and the new symptoms, and how you're all feeling.
Glad you all had a nice bank holiday weekend too.

LittleConnie · 28/05/2008 10:07

Put up a picture - I want to see your lumpy belly! Mine might be fairly neatish but since I put that picture up I've had messages from friends I haven't seen for yonks asking if I'm about to drop! Then I have to tell them I have 4 months to go

LittleConnie · 28/05/2008 10:08

LittleConnie · 28/05/2008 10:20

how weird! isn't it strange having a peak into each other's lives...

eandz · 28/05/2008 10:32

i like having you guys on my facebook. i don't feel like i'm messaging complete internet strangers. yall are still people i don't know, but people with families, faces and pregnancies. i don't feel as alone in this pregnancy as i used to.

mamamufin · 28/05/2008 10:43

How exciting. I too am on facebook . I am called Jane Jones but there are over 500 of us . I will try to find you you all and request you as friends.
Just thought this is going to be very confusing as we are all going to know each other by two names. Rl Names and Mn names. Anyone any ideas to overcome this?

eandz · 28/05/2008 10:45

well eandz stands for Emad and Zehra

eandz · 28/05/2008 10:58

mamamufin,
