pfft- she owes us perfect typing- half of the uk is sitting watching a computer screen waiting for news

TrillianSlasher · 19/10/2009 16:22

I'd settle for any typing. Or dictating even.

How many ignored children do you think there are while we wait for this baby to arrive? 4 in this house

nappyzonecantrunfortoffee · 19/10/2009 16:26

2 in mine and i have just turned a blind eye to a battle but actually it worked out well and they resolved it without me screaming at them

PacificWerewolfwoohood · 19/10/2009 16:27

I am telling you all right now, when DS4 makes his entrance into the world, I will maybe be able to announce his arrival on here in the first 7 days, certainly NOT minutes!
How can anybody type/dictate/breathe/keep eyes open in labour??

Go, Flame, go!

Just one ignored child here, don't think he minds much - uninterrupted cartoons.

Don't think DP will be much impressed when gets in from work...

liahgen · 19/10/2009 16:29

craftynclothy · 19/10/2009 16:30

1 ignored toddler and one sleeping but about to wake for a feed baby in this house.

tHELLISH · 19/10/2009 16:32

1 ignored child,
1 set of homework not done (class tonight)
1 dinner not started (don't have ingredients yet!)

come on Flamey Family!

HidingFromTheDM · 19/10/2009 16:32

Well I've been tracking this thread for 8.5 hours when I should have been working. Monday is the busiest day of the week at work and I have spent it on MN waiting for a wee baby to be born.

Hope you and the little one are well Flame. Hopefully you aren't still pushing and are instead cuddling your new baby.

But for god's sake woman, send someone to the computer to update us all!!!

damewashalot · 19/10/2009 16:33

not even started cooking here, oven is on but that's it so far.

Desperate for an update...I mean, its been all day...have some thought for the rest of us, woman!!

Not so sure I'm cut out for this cheerleading thing...even virtual splits are starting to really hurt

Go flame, go flame, go flame...

TrillianSlasher · 19/10/2009 16:35

No childen, 1 mildly neglected job.

TheMaskedPoster · 19/10/2009 16:35

WHAT??!?!?!?!?

Still no baby ... Oh fgs - I've been out, picked up child, been to ballet, prepared dinner, saved the world and generally done everything and still no baby...

well - it's not like the old days. There would have been a baby by now

Frizbe · 19/10/2009 16:37

OMG no updates on here either!
Meri thanks for the buns, they're lovely Xmas Smile got one here with a cuppa, come on Flamey, hope everything is ok....

Alibooobaandthe40phantoms · 19/10/2009 16:37

Oh I can't believe she's still going, poor Flame! I have been and cleaned nearly my entire house, was convinced that we would have a newborn to sniff by the time I got back

Hope you're ok Flame
