Evening all - just letting you know I'm still lurking and keeping an eye on you all - just not really feeling like I've got much to contribute to you all at the moment.

I've texted NJ after her earlier comment - Glask - you should be getting a text from NJ any minute...

GYo · 10/11/2008 20:20

Evening everyone.

Wow this thread has suddenly perked up after a quiet weekend

Sorry to hear Nats gone to hosp- keep us posted Glask, though im sure you will...

Really is weird this thread- does feel like I know you lot for real I know I will be itching to report back here about my scan tomorrow before phoning RL people!

Gruff glad you had good time up north but sorry about the migraine. must be awful when preg- everything seems much worse

Hi everyone else, Ses, LB, Kay etc. Its been a long day so sorry if I missed anyone.

Home made chocolate muffin anyone?

GYo · 10/11/2008 20:21

Hi latour!

good to see you here.
Hows things with you?

GruffaloSoldier · 10/11/2008 20:25

hi gyo!

yep migraines are pretty pants - luckily my work are very laid back and I went in an hour later and DH came and helped me for the last hour of the day (when Im rushing getting child to ballet etc and everyhting suddenly goes manic!)

Im going to go shopping any minute so will wish you well for your scan tomorrow while your here!Hope all goes great and cant wait to hear about it and see the pic of baby Gyo of course!

GYo · 10/11/2008 20:26

Thanks Gruff Good luck shopping.

Dont forget the wispas

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 10/11/2008 20:27

oh hello LaTour- was just mentioning you!! (something tells me your ears were burning!!)

not got anything from NJ as yet... but i'll be on till DH is home at 9ish....

Gruff?? you and your exclamations?? Have you not seen my posts?? i go OTT on ???'s, !!!'s and ...'s!!

LaTourEiffel · 10/11/2008 20:27

GYo, thanks for asking, things are quite crap at the moment - the consecutive disasters I've had throughout the year have really taken its toll...this last week with the redundancy at work has hit me quite hard too. I've not posted as feel like I've been quite a drain on the board, and a bit high maintenance, I don't like that much, would rather be happy bubbly LaTour again.

LaTourEiffel · 10/11/2008 20:31

NJ is in hospital (duh ) and her DH has taken the boys home to bed, she's texting in between people coming in to talk to her etc. She's got monitors strapped on as the baby's HB is very erratic - says she's not sure what's happening next....

GYo · 10/11/2008 20:31

Sorry to hear things are getting you down LaTour.

You've certainly had a run of it- please dont worry about being a drain on the board. You are one of the original wagon wheels so please post here if you'd like to- but also understand if you'd prefer to be quiet too.

Sending a fat choc muffin in lieu of much banned Wagon hugs

GruffaloSoldier · 10/11/2008 20:33

LOL Glask! Hadnt noticed but makes me feel better!

Oh wispas! Thanks for reminding me GYo

La tour - im off now but hope things look up soon!i know its not easy but try and keep smiling and stay positive! You have had a hell of a year and look at you - you are still standing and getting through it and you will be your bubbly self again - you need to give your self a break! you will do it, you'll see!

Oh i went on a bit there hope all makes sense got to dash dh is leaving without me!

kayzisexpecting · 10/11/2008 20:34

LaTour, Don't worry about being high maintenance. We are here to be moaned at. What do you think we are for?

kayzisexpecting · 10/11/2008 20:38

Keeping everything crossed for Nat. I hope she is ok and they can keep it under control so she doesn't have to have the baby too early.

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 10/11/2008 20:39

LaTour- we are here for good times and bad!! think how many times you've picked one of us up when we were down!! we're here to do the same for you!!

LaTourEiffel · 10/11/2008 20:43

Bless you all x Don't be nice, I'll cry again, and in the nicest possible way, I don't want sympathy, which is why I haven't been posting! I can't stand the thought of people feeling sorry for me.

Anyway, I'm not really here - I'm just keeping NJ 'company' at the moment and wanted you to know she's OK - kind of in a holding pattern at the moment. I hate being in hospital, I always seem to come out knackered and in need of a about a weeks sleep!

Cosmogirl · 10/11/2008 20:44

Evening all,

Has been lively on the wagon today - lots of sugar-high pregnant ladies I feel

Nat - thinking of you. Hope everything is OK. Glask - keep us posted with any news.

Glask - re: sickness, does sound like we are quite similar. I know you are right and the baby will be so worth it, but I think because it is my first DC it is sometimes hard to visualise the 'end product' so to speak! God, I'm rambling now too......Dr Pepper Zero.....

Gruff - glad you enjoyed your weekend and yay for feeling movements. It is very cool isn't it? Also helps take my mind away from feeling nauseous, which is a bonus I am 20 weeks tomo and bump really seems to have popped last couple of days.

GYo - good luck tomoro and please pop in to tell us all how it went. I need a blow by blow account of the 20 week scan so I am prepared for mine!

La Tour - hello - hope you are ok. I worked out who you are a couple of weeks ago. Bit slow on the uptake here!

We must all sort some meet ups at some point - does feel like we are all old friends

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 10/11/2008 20:44

oh, just read about nat- haven't got a text from her yet... i dont have her number to text her either... so i'm waiting on her, if/when she does text i'll tell her you're all askign after her!!

LaTourEiffel · 10/11/2008 20:46

Oh god, that sounded really, really ungrateful and its totally not meant to be. Sorry

I love that you all notice when I'm not around for a while, its like a little hug.

kayzisexpecting · 10/11/2008 20:49

We know what you mean LaTour.

Isn't your appointment this week?

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 10/11/2008 20:52

you didn't sound ungrateful!! I know what you mean... but dont feel you're a misery!! We love you, and miss you when your not around!!

ok- seriously i can understand why people thought i was drunk on coke when i was a kid!! I'm feeligntipsy now!! and not had a drop of alcohol past my lips in the last 7mths!!

LaTourEiffel · 10/11/2008 20:53

NJ is OK, she's just being monitored for now. Poor love hasn't had any dinner, hasn't got an overnight bag with her and DH has taken the kids home. I assume she's hoping to go home tonight but at this time of night, I'd be a bit surprised!

kayzisexpecting · 10/11/2008 20:55

I second Glask!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!

Poor Nat, can't begin to imagine how she must be feeling. Send her our love(and hugs)

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 10/11/2008 20:57

oh poor NJ- doesn't sound like she'll get out tonight... when i went in at 7pm there was no chance of being allowed home the same night even if i'd been ok

wilsonmummy · 10/11/2008 20:58

Evening all,

My my it is busy on here tonight!

Nj..hope everything ok hon!!

Gruff.. Feeding going well, she's opting for more dinner rather than a treat which is a good sign!!

LaTour.. Sorry your having a tough time at the moment.. Not sure if i'm going to be made redundant soon i work for the infamous hbos!! Keep being told that business as usual!!?!

Kay.. yay for carpet, bet its feeling nice and cosy now!!

OP posts:
LaTourEiffel · 10/11/2008 20:58

I can't believe you remembered Kay , NJ has asked too (and she's strapped to a mc!). The appt is on Weds morning.

I'm worried they're going to tell me there's a 6 month waiting list.

I'm having a lot of nightmares at the moment (the bad dream variety) so feel quite zombied by the evening too.

GYo · 10/11/2008 21:02

Thanks for the Nat updates LaTour.
hope she is ok. Am sat here thinking of her...

Cosmo- thanks for scan wishes. Will definately do a full blow by blow account of the scan and what they do. I keep forgetting its actually so they can do medical stuff not so we can see baby on the screen!
