OK, Christmas starts here! Just checked bank balances, DH worked very hard for me this month! Good boy! (grin] I'll be shopping all day if anyone wants me Actually I've got mindee til lunch time, so maybe not!

You know what? Its the shortest day of the year today, so that means its all up, up, up til Spring from tomorrow!

Now then, what can I find you all in my bag? Ah, here we go, pressies,mulled wine & mince pies and crakers!

Enjoy!

baby plang nicely with me (just put in the travel cot for a sleep)

any news looney on the baby??

MaureenMLovesmincepies · 21/12/2007 15:35

Afternoon all. Is everyone nearly done? I only had mindee til 11 afterall, because dad came home early, so I've done my shopping, although I've missed a bit, so I've got to go out again later! Not sure yet whether I'm going out for a drink or six with Kbear tonight, I can't find her! Still don't know whether DH is working nights tonight yet either, so its all a bit up in the air now. I really must buy my mum a christmas present though, forgot that too when I was out!

Just a quicky dmo.....phoned just after 3 and 2nd result not back (1st was this morning but it's not about baby, just full blood count). I've now been told by mears, midwife on MN, that it will probably show antibodies anyway because I've had anti-d now. Sooooo, I think I'll have to wait and question midwife after Christmas!

drinkmulledwineoften · 21/12/2007 16:43

poor you looney not get news to wait for all christmas

LOONEYplayingachristmasTUNEy · 21/12/2007 16:52

Panic over.....I phoned midwife to ask for actual results of original test last Friday and turns out hospital paniced and gave me as standard and that there is NO sign my baby's blood had leaked into mine - think they said that to make sure I had the anti-d as some people object to it and they're right, I only had it done without more research because they insisted my baby was at risk Anyway, I'm not worried anymore

Pissed off though........finally got email back saying actually, yes, can you have the sisters on Monday and we'll collect at 1.30pm but please make sure they've had lunch blabla. Good job I emailed to ask then eh after being told I shouldn't be needed!
