wow, she's nice!

goldmother2b · 05/08/2008 21:45

hello ladies - Aunty glad your scan went well - I'm niw quite blaze about the internal scans as had loads in April when I had my MMC.
I also cried at BB last night - told my DH that I was not alone as alot of the MN ladies said the same - his reply 'pathetic'....

A bit about me. I'm 32, been with DH for 11 years, married for nearly 7. This is our first dc, although we do have a cat that is spoiled to death. I live near Bolton in Lancs and work full time in a project management role for a bank. I've got my scan next Monday (at 11 weeks). I can't wait.

hi girls i guess im not destined to join you for the next 8 months after all, i have just got back from a&e for the 5th time! went to the loo and saw bright red blood and freaked so got myself to hospital....had internal and they saw nothing so i have been sent home to let nature take its course. I still have scan booked for monday but i think its more to check its gone and to see the size of the cyst now...i wish you all the best of luck and wishes and may you all go on to have happy, healthy babies xxx

dinny · 05/08/2008 21:53

So sorry to hear that, Barbie, love Dinny x

grinningbee · 05/08/2008 22:51

Oh Barbie, so sorry to hear that ((hugs)). Look after yourself and if you need someone to natter to we're here.

I cried at BB last night too. Then again, there are a few adverts on the tv currently that make me cry...

twocutedarlings · 05/08/2008 22:52

barbie i a so sorry after everything you have been through, do not do all this alone, is there anyone that can drive up and be with you? if not the go home i know the journey will be horrific, but it has to be better that the prospect of facing this on your own.

twocutedarlings · 06/08/2008 08:17

Good morning Girls

I hope your all well on this yet another grey and gloomy morning.

barbie How are you today?

I can see that lots of you have added more about yourself so i will follow suit.

About me.

Im 33 i live in Sheffield with My hubby and im a SAHM to my 2 girls aged 5&3. DD1 is on the Autistic Spectrum and has Apergers Syndrome, so fair to say life at our house is very interesting to say the least!!

TheHedgeWitch would love to chat to you sometime, im always looking for way to gain a better insight LOL .

I have been with my DH for 17.5 years, but we only married for 3 years.

SpookyMadMummy · 06/08/2008 08:29

Barbie Thinking of you.

emma2617 · 06/08/2008 08:58

Barbie So sorry...hope you are doing well today!

Aunty Glad your scan went well...so jealous you got to see your little bean! I have to wait another 6 days to see my little gertrude!! The midwife came round yesterday afternoon, I am fully booked in now, have my pretty green notes and a little less blood!! I have my scan on the 12th and then back to see the midwife at the doctors on 19th...very busy! I never expected to be seen 3 weeks running!!

The only symptom I have left now is my bone crushing tiredness!! So I am not doing too bad in the grand scheme of things!

Gosh...there really is a 10 year theme going on!! Me and DP have only been together 2 years! Mind you I am kind of used to it...everyone thinks I am mental for having a baby at 22...but as I keep telling everyone, only you know when you are ready!!

Hope everyone is okay this morning!

dinny · 06/08/2008 09:08

yes, dh and I have been married 10 years next August!

together for 14 years though!

Mandy73 · 06/08/2008 10:12

Barbie I'm so very sorry. Look after yourself. xx

livismum · 06/08/2008 11:19

Barbie so sorry to hear ur news hope ur holding up, bodies can be so rubbish sometimes why cant they just do what they are supposed too!

MKG · 06/08/2008 13:10

Barbie, I'm so sorry

Well I didn't get to tell my family yet. I chickened out.

emma2617 · 06/08/2008 15:45

MKG I am petrified about telling my family!! Me and DP are planning to go visit them on 20th september (they are out of the country until early sept) to tell them, but i have no idea how to do it! I am younger than my mum was when she had me so i dont know what they will say!!

I have become so unbelievably irrational! yelled and tooted my horn at a little old lady who walked out in front of my car, shouted at an old man who jumped the queue when we were shopping on saturday (when they open a new till and say next please...he was at the back of the queue so i said, quite loudly, " i bloody hate old people, she said whos next please, not whos closest"!! and then to top it all off i was back on my horn in the car when another car came zooming alongside me and nipped into the petrol pump i was heading for!! He slammed his car into reverse and said "well go on then"...i got out of my car only to realise the pump was at the worng side of my car anyway, do i made DP pump the petrol while i hid in the shop waiting to pay!! sooo embarrassing and now I just want to cry...almost cried a few times today just because one of my customers at work is causing me a lot of hassle and as i have only been in my job for 10 months I am not entirely sure how to fix it!

I have gone seriously loopy!! On the up-side, DP has learnt to just accept that everything is his fault! I cant wait to stop feeling like this so I can repay him!

auntyspan · 06/08/2008 16:05

Barbie I'm so sorry

I've told my side of the family but DH hasn't told his yet - it's a bit awkward as DH's brother and wife have been trying to have kids for a couple of years and nothing has happened.

My dad has dementia so i wanted to tell him as early as possible so he could get his head around it. It was a gamble of course but a educated gamble!

Emma don't worry about being snappy - I had a go at DH last night for not putting enough ice in my drink

it passes I promise!
