my throat and wisdom are like death this morning

glas - dont blame u for getting upset hate it when parents think that they know best

i dont do nuts full stop

hi lbot wow not far off of 7 weeks

kayzisexpecting · 05/12/2008 08:46

Morning all,

Glad you had a good time LBOT, not much news from me. Just a week though until baby is due.

Sorry you aren't well this morning Tink. Everyone seems to be getting sore throats, coughs and colds.

Still feeling a bit dizzy so we're trying to get a GP out to see me. I don't feel stable enough to walk there with all the ice. All the snow has melted but then frozen overnight.

So now I have to sit and wait for them to ring back and hope they will send someone.

Hope everyone is ok.

Ses, I agree. I will leave your Mars Bars alone if you leave my Peanut Brittle alone.

Diege · 05/12/2008 08:57

Morning! Thanks for your kind words about my paranoia everyone! Feeling a little better this morning, though will feel much better after next week!
Hope you're ok Kay and that they can get a GP to you - you need to sort this before the 10th
Good to hear from you LBOT ; hopefully the sickness won't strike you too badly, esp with all those xmas goodies looming!
Right, will pop in and out today and over weekend

GYoIsReallyHavingABaby · 05/12/2008 09:22

Morning All

Thank goodness that its friday...

So far we have wispas, mars, snickers, peanut brittle and last night I had some chocolate money We can open a sweetshop!

Nat- how are you? hope no more shows/ liquid loss

LB- glad MW went ok, and fingers crossed that the chicken pox wont hurt. I had a feeling it was much worse if exposed in 1sst trimester than later on but thinking of you anyway.

LBOT- great to see you back and glad you had good thx giving and shared your exciting news...

Kay- hope your dizzyness improves soon (peanut brittle is defo a good thing for it I heard..

Tink- hope your teeth dont hurt all weekend.... i know that pain- must be worse that you can have strong painkillers...

Glask- hope you are feeling better now, I'd also be really annoyed if someone chose stuff for our baby. Did you speak to her?

2BG- thanks will look at vertbaudet

RuDiegetheRedNosedReinDiege · 05/12/2008 09:58

Hi GYO . Just seeing if xmas nickname change works!!!

RuDiegetheRedNosedReinDiege · 05/12/2008 09:58

Yes!

largeginandtonic · 05/12/2008 10:05

Stop chatting i cant keep up

Hellish day yesterday, less said the better i think.

Parents coming for the weekend and dh best friend who has just broken up with his GF. Bless him. I always get nervous when his friends come and stay, i think they must look at me and think "what on Earth" is he doing with her. DH is 4 years younger than me and hot. He looks like a young Pierce Brosnan > and he took me and 5 children on... He must be mad.

Will hide behind my mother

Kay i am SO excited about the HB honestly it will be brilliant. It is so nice to wander round your own house and eat what you like, shower\bath when you feel like it and get in to your own bed. A MUST is a bottle of Champagne in the fridge. Lots of tea for the midwives and some yummy cakes.

I can't wait

Nat rest please! That boy needs to stay put for a few more weeks yet. Are you sure about the Caulophyllum? I took 2 tabs 3 times a day for 2 days, then had a break for 2 days and did it again. It builds up and as soon as you are ready to labour it all kicks in [nervous emoticon]

I am not even sure i am going to take Rasberry leaf this time, i didnt with B as i was so worried he would be super quick.

LB one of the twins had shingles when i was 24 weeks pregnant and i worried. I saw the doctor after googling it. How many weeks are you?

Glask have you spoken to your mum?

GYoIsReallyHavingABaby · 05/12/2008 10:14

Diege love the new name very festive.

Already feeling quite festive in the GYo house... tree and lights are up..Quite embarrased by how early but still This is first year DH and I have been able to really "do christmas" for various reasons we've had other stuff on... Discovered that DH clearly loves it!

Morning Gin...

Off to my osteo now so will report back later...

Hopefully Sorky got on ok at hers....

largeginandtonic · 05/12/2008 10:23

at the osteo. Have fun, hope it helps

Oooh the smilies i cant get enough

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 05/12/2008 10:35

morning all... I spoke to my mum and although she seemed a bit annoyed at me she agreed to take it back and just spend the money of bits and bobs, however i also said i didn't need any clothing in newborn or 0-3 exept sleepsuits!!

So DH is going to buy me one out of his game money next pay!!

My sister is coming round today, she'll be collecting DS from nursery for me, save my back!! and pretty good as today is a poor day on sickness... on one of my slightly sicker days... been sick 3x this morning and feel like i'm gonna be sick again before lunch. Though i'm still feeling 'normal' or as normal as i can right now!!

Got over my tears after speaking to my mum... DH came home and was just lovely!! I didn't expect him to offer his game money!!.... and i think he's letting me get one of the OiOi bags i like too!!

right i'm off, only came on to check my ebay... my last bundle is ending today.

tinkisahugexmaspudding · 05/12/2008 11:05

kay - hope u feel better soon
diege -glad that u r feeling positive, luving the name
lg&t - hi
gyo - good luck eith os
glas - glad u sorted things out with ur mum

lastboxoftampons · 05/12/2008 12:05

Okay, had a very poor excuse of a catch up and wanted to say:

kay Hoping things start moving in there and that little one comes out soon!

Nat I hope yours stays put!! Take care of yourself and rest lots!!!

Diege It's completely normal for you to feel apprehensive. You might want to pop onto the knicker checkers thread on pregnancy - everyone on there has been through what you're going through at the moment. I'm also trying to just ignore the fact that I'm pregnant at the moment - and I can tell you this past week away from the internet really made the time go so much faster for me. Have you had any reassurance scans in the interim? I know it's easier said than done, but try to relax and take care!

sorkycake · 05/12/2008 12:21

OMFG!

I CAN WALK PEOPLE!!!!

I saw the Chiropractor he gave me an examination, pummelled my right hip and sacrum with a vibratey thingummy (very nice and relaxing btw).
Then he used something metal to 'flick' my vertebrae back into position.
Finally he put foam wedges under my hips and left me to relax for 15 minutes.

I got one stretching exercise to do, advised to try ice packs on my back and go back in one week to check how I'm doing and for another round of similar treatment.

I got down from the couch and walked out of the room without any waddling, oofing or pain.

I'm still aware of the area, but there was no pain.

I'm not counting my chicks yet though. I'm still taking it easy.

Now for the catch up....

LBOT sooooo pleased you're still with us

Liking the name Diege.

LB glad Ses has reassured you, she's very good at that I've found

Sorry for all the poolies. Gin I have seen you're pic and you look fabulous sweetie I sometimes think people will think that about my man and me, especially atm.

Hope Gyo gets on okay

Ooh, where've you all gone?

lastboxoftampons · 05/12/2008 12:35

sorky What fab news that you're mobile!!!!! You must feel so relieved and, well, free!!!!!!! You might want to keep the twirling and skipping to a minimum though! Good vibes for continued painless motility!

And thanks for your comment. I'm very happy to still be here!

kayzisexpecting · 05/12/2008 12:40

Hello,

Gin, don't be silly woman!!! You are gorgeous!!!!!!!!!

Sorky, Yay for being able to walk.

Love the name Diege.

Hope you get on ok at the Oesto Gyo.

Slightly worried about Nat, not like her to not even just pop on quickly. I've sent her a message. Hope everything is ok.

No doctor here. They think it is the way the baby is lying when I am asleep combined with being anemic. I am a bit annoyed as if it is an ear infection then it won't get sorted. But if I still feel bad over the weekend I will call out the GP.

MIL has been round this morning. She has taken DS and he is going to stay there tonight. I'll probably be bored once DH goes to work but I really could do with the rest.

tinkisahugexmaspudding · 05/12/2008 13:30

sorkycake · 05/12/2008 13:47

She was last on MN on here last night at 6pm. Unless she'd lost t'internet she's usually on in the morning.

She had stabby foof pains yesterday, I wonder if she's okay, especially with all the leaks/shows etc?

Great news gyo!

Tink I hope she sings live

storkycake · 05/12/2008 13:56

My name never suits any changes, but I thought this one might be okay for the AN board

storkycake · 05/12/2008 14:04

hmm, Dh has the kids entertained with Christmas decorating.

I'm debating on a bath or nap.....

GYoIsReallyHavingABaby · 05/12/2008 14:08

how about a bath and then a nap ?

great new name Storky!

storkycake · 05/12/2008 14:09

An inspired suggestion Gyo, thank you!

Has anyone contacted Nat?
