Are your children’s vaccines up to date?
TinkerBellesMum · 10/11/2008 17:07

That's a good idea then the people left on the list can update themselves if they need to.

Ooops, just noticed I put myself down as 01/01/09, I'm due in February - not that I'm going to get even that far!

onwardandoutward · 10/11/2008 17:10

And mine is DC2, a suprise (but definitely a human), due on 7 Feb 2009

I'm in the South West

I'm 35

And I go on maternity leave on 6 Feb 2009. Yes. That is the result of being the breadwinner, ladies.

Questionkid · 10/11/2008 17:12

I'm letting dinky and mrsy sort it out, they seem like very organised people to me. I'm better at following instructions (and asking questions). Oh, and spending money, that's one of my strengths. And eating, musn't forget that.

TinkerBellesMum · 10/11/2008 17:33

I don't think updating the list is about kicking people out or anything like it. We have getting on to 100 people on the list and not as many posters, I agree some may come back or be lurking. If we leave those on who have left the site then this thread will be open forever!

As for the postnatal group, I will continue to post over here until there is someone else (assuming no one else beats me to it!) and then I'll post in both places until we're all over there.

Still can't believe I've had it confirmed, no more than 4 weeks left!

Rachrox · 10/11/2008 17:58

Hello ladies and bumps,
How are you all? You've kind of lost me with the list thing?! Not that hard as it seems even cbeebies can confuse me . So here's my details as they're slightly different from the original list......
Rachrox DC4 due 18/02/09 BOY (age 28, Cheltenham)
Sorry i don't tend to post very often, i'm more of a lurker but i do read all the posts every day. I just think i have nothing worthwhile mentioning so i leave the entertaining up to you lot!!
Dinky Thanks for wishes for my ds birthday other week, i got his kitchen from 'the entertainer' toyshop website, but tbh it's not that great although it does keep him happy .
Tbm How many weeks are you now?
Take care everyone.

herbgarden · 10/11/2008 18:25

I'm sleep deprived and can't work out now whether I copy and paste the list or just let Mrsy and Dinky add to the list....

So, I'm
38 - DC2 (don't know gender) - coming (hopefully) by planned c-section 2nd Feb 2009. One DS already (2.4months). I'm in Berkshire.

Please help me

mumoverseas · 10/11/2008 18:31

TBM, ref your back, mine is completely buggered too (L5/L5 held together with various bits of metal, bone grafts and sticky back plastic). I wasn't able to have an epidural when I had DD now aged 2 but had a spinal block (although they did have GA stuff standing by in case it didn't work, but it did). All set to have a spinal block again this time so maybe its something you could raise as a possibility? Don't really understand the difference but seem to recall that one of the girls on here is very clever ref medical stuff and did explain the difference previously. Worth asking x

TinkerBellesMum · 10/11/2008 18:44

28 + 1 weeks, so getting to a really good age now.

mumoverseas everyone said I'd have to have a GA, I'll have to check that one out. Hoping it won't be an issue if she comes early as it won't put as much pressure on the scar.

I've got to have investigations when the relaxin levels have returned to normal and they can see what's really going on. I had a fall just over three years ago when I was pregnant with Lily-Hope and my back never recovered. It's not really PGP I have but it's the only thing they can treat.

lardybump · 10/11/2008 19:22

evening all, I hope you are all well...... I am getting bad pelvic pains at the moment infact last night they were so bad I could only crawl up the stairs...... ouch...

TinkerBellesMum · 10/11/2008 19:31

lardy, when you can make the walk remember "Good to Heaven, Bad to Hell" Going up stairs you lead with your good side and coming down your bad so that there is less strain on your bad side.

This is why I need to move, crawling up communal concrete stairs with no covering is not a good idea! At least in a house I can go up and down on my bottom and Tink is more likely to do it alone.

MarkStretch · 10/11/2008 19:35

It feels like my baby is standing on my left hip and projecting himself off it towards my right rib. It is most odd.

dinkystinky · 10/11/2008 19:39

Ooh Lardy - that sounds uber painful. Have you spoken to your dr/midwife about it? Do you need a belt like Markstretch got?

Onward - I take my hat off to you - you are officially hardcore lady working right up to your due date!

Tink - wow, our first baby within the next 4 weeks! Now that will suddenly make it all really real.....

I know I am uber-organised but dont really want to be lady in charge of updating list (believe it or not, I only get an hour max at work to mumsnet and use other internet sites during the day and internet connection at home is sporadic so something tells me that list maintenance may need more time than I can devote to it). Happy to spend an evening sometime sorting through the original list to separate into regular posters and lurkers who need to post to avoid being suspended from the list but that is the maximum I can devote to it. Should any other organised list obsessive wish to take on the job, am only to happy to defer to them.........

OP posts:
lardybump · 10/11/2008 19:48

Yes I have spoken to MW we are keeping an eye on it... Not so bad today but still painful.

Tink I will remember that one.

spottyshoes · 10/11/2008 19:55

hiya, just a quick hello before going to bed I did want to be naughty and copy a paste a messed up list for Mrsy but am too tired. Can whoever is doing the collating add me please as I'm still here too!
Spotty-fatarsebadhips-shoes, DC2 due 24/02/09 28yrs (DS 19mths).

enjoy your evenings night owls

onwardandoutward · 10/11/2008 19:58

am frustrated.

had lovely goat's cheese at the weekend. Just popped into sainsburys to buy some more. Why oh why oh why did I look at the back fo the not-recommended-for-pregnant-women packet? I'd have been quite quite happy to eat it if I didn't know I was supposed not to. harumph.

eating black pudding for supper instead

dinkystinky · 10/11/2008 20:08

I hate it when that happens Onward - am having to live my love of cheese vicariously through my DH and cheese obsessed son (honestly, whenever we go to a farmer's market or borough market all you can hear from DS is "cheese" (said in a v Wallace and Grommet kind of way))

OP posts:
lardybump · 10/11/2008 20:13

Right I am off now too so speak to you all tomorrow.

herbgarden · 10/11/2008 20:36

Right you lot !!.....DH is out tonight and I'm slobbed in front of the telly watching Eastenders and got a second wind so I decided to be anal about the list and tried to standardise it. I've done it as Name, DC"x",(whether boy/girl - if you know) due date 00.00.00 (cs date if applic) (age x, where you live). Sorry if any of it is wrong or I've missed something vital. Hopefully we can use as master list?
