Page 17 | A Giraffe and a Gruffalo went to the Cosmos to see the Starshine, but which WagonBaby will be first?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Morning,

Couldn't resist a list update. Hope this is the right version and you don't mind me putting you on the birth's list GYo.

Still so happy for you and hope you are enjoying motherhood so far.

Will go and find mine and Gruff's syndicates now.

kayzr · 23/03/2009 07:20

Morning,

YAY!!!! GYO!!!!!!!!!! What a weight!!!! You can offically take the title of Wagon's biggest baby!!!! Congratulations!!!

Hope you all had better Mother's days than I did. We had a big falling out with DH's family. SIL bought DS1 a bed for his birthday that we didn't want. She asked if we wanted it, DH said no but of course it is all my fault as bloody usual.

Oh and AF hasn't turned up yet so we are sh*tting it here. I'm not broody anymore, just want my AF to turn up.

Mornign Kayz, sorry your mother's day wasn't great. I'm know I'm not technically a mother yet but I had a pretty pants day yesterday if that helps - spent most of the afternoon crying my eyes out! GYo's news cheered me up at the end of the day though -

Fingers crossed your AF is just a little delayed...

SesIsCountingdowntheweeks · 23/03/2009 09:59

Morning Sparkly! That's fantastic and must have topped off Mother's Day for you

Just heard that our nephew should be home from hospital today - big relief!

Re meet up: I'm normally the person that hates to miss out on these things but I think I may have to resign myself to not being around for one in April/May but would be up for one in August.

lastboxoftampons · 23/03/2009 10:26

I haven't caught up properly, but jst wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS! to GYO! Fab news! and at nearly 11lbs!!?!?! You're a STAR!

Scan tonight! Can hardly wait until 6pm!!!!!

SesIsCountingdowntheweeks · 23/03/2009 10:32

Hi LBOT!
V excited for your scan!!! Let us know how it goes later and whether it's a boy or a girl. I'm going to guess....... boy!

Right off to pilates now and then a meeting in Maidstone this afternoon. Only 9.5 days left at work!

Original poster

Astarte · 23/03/2009 11:12

Woohoo, I win, I win, I win!!

oh....erm.....yes...... (jus' kidding)

MAHOOSIVE CONGRATULATIONS GYo
Giraffes are my favourite animals you know

My internet was all blinky last night so I found out details from OhSnap by text.

So pleased for you, cannot wait for the birth story and remember long detailed and there's no such thing as TMI

I changed my prediction from girl to boy at the last minute, but I did think your scan pic looked girly
Cosmo surely noone would've guessed that weight , or at least wished it on anyone hehe.

Ses glad to hear your nephew is on the mend.

hello LTE nice to hear from you, enjoy Belgium.

Finally, good luck to LBOT for your scan. I'm guessing a girl

I'm posting from my mum's so might not be able to catch up properly until net is fixed.

OP posts:

Cosmogirl · 23/03/2009 11:21

Well done Ast! Your run of luck better not continue though - I DO NOT want to go 5 days overdue thank you very much ...

idreamofbeanie · 23/03/2009 11:52

Hi all,

just popped home for 2mins so no time to read through thread but I did see its CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! to Gyo. I'll have to have a proper readthrough later. Sorry for anything else I've missed.

Just to say the scan was brilliant. I little very active bean with a lovely heartbeat measuring 12+6 (thought I was 12+4 so that's great). Massively excited, relieved and shocked all at the same time. Off to tell the in-laws now.

Diege · 23/03/2009 12:06

Oh excellent news IDOB - was thinkinng about your scan over the weekend
Good luck for yours too LBOT - looking forward to hearing all about it .
Just a quick hello as in betweenn student tutorials while trying to eat my customary microwaved fish pie! Was sick for the first time in months this morninng, but fingers crossed it was just a blip!
Love to all - still grinning about GYO's amazing birth!

GYoIsReallyHavingABaby · 23/03/2009 13:06

Morning Everyone.
Thanks for all your lovely messages of congratulations.. the shock is subsiding here and changing to total amazement...

Had a quick read thru... I will write the birth story this afternoon

STT- hurray for hb on doppler... so pleased for you

IDOB- congrats on the good scan, hope you are feeling relieved!

Had a fab night just for the fact that I was able to sleep without being up for a wee, taking gaviscon, in agony etc (despite having a weirdo feeling fanjo ) Fed her at 12, she woke at 3 and just gurgled etc, then at 5 but I didnt hear her and DH just checked her.. So Im sure its adrenalin but Im feeling sooooooooo much better for not being pregnant!
Cosmo- wishing on speedy vibes for your labour so you can feel the not being pregnant euphoria too... Thought of you this morning when I realised how much better i felt.

Im off for some soup (not had in months) for lunch. Will do story later.. Very excited about writing it....

Kooky, think I was really inspired by your homebirth and it really helped me focus when things were hard.

back laters

GYO you sound so well!!! . I think I'd felt like I'd been through a car crash after having my first, for about 3 months after!. Looking forward to reading the birth story .

Cosmogirl · 23/03/2009 13:48

Hi GYo - ahhh I'm so so that you're no longer pregnant - but also extremely happy for you - obviously!! I hope I don't have too much longer now, though the signs are non-existent at the moment which is a bit of a worry.

Looking forward to reading your birth story (don't leave anything out!) and hearing the name of course.

Congrats to IDOB on your scan and STT - 11 weeks already! Glad the doppler is bringing you reassurance.

Right, back to the sulking corner of the wagon methinks....it is a bit lonely without you GYo.....

kayzr · 23/03/2009 14:24

GYo, You sound so excited to finally have your little girl. I can't wait to hear the name you choose.

Still no sign of period here. I tested and got a BFN so period is obviously taking a detour this month.

kayzr · 23/03/2009 14:42

WOOHOOO!!!!!

DH is applying for a job at the railway. There is a job going as a carriage cleaner. Now we just hope he gets it!!

Cosmogirl · 23/03/2009 16:58

Ahh good luck to DH Kayz - hope he gets it.

Been sitting on my ball this afternoon and afterwards I've felt like I need to wee constantly. Is this normal? I go wee then two minutes later feel like I need it again.
