Oh Lemony! Tears here too, huge congratulations. Ouch at forceps, my first was forceps. Look after yourself and take every bit of help you can get, sounds like you've been through the mill.

I'm ok, gals, a little sore. Tbh I thought I had a water infection. In true chav fashion I got rather gingerly back in the saddle yesterday. It was really STSIISC - shagging to see if I still can lol Wink. Phew, I can!!!

Hello ladies, think I will need a few big bottles of White lightning before I even think about s e x again Smile

Me and dh have been together for fourteen years and never felt as gushey about him, it's weird but the whole experience has made us stronger.

Labour lasted fourteen hours and towards the end I just felt like I couldn't do it, but I did (all thanks to dh) and she is amazing. She is the same length and weighs the same as dd1 did, she looks very similar but is totally different.

First night home from hospital last night and I'm shattered, dd1 and dh totally in love with her and can't believe we are finally a family of four after all the years of trying.

Just waiting for the midwife then I can sleep again, sorry no name check big hugs for everyone who needs one and you shaggers have a shag for me!

notheroldie · 26/01/2011 14:58

Well done lemony and Mr Hero of the day Lemony (only slightly jealous !)

However I have to blame you for my mishap today, I was in tears, went off to find a tissue, looked at the clock ran off to get DS from Pre school, only to find I was there an HOUR early !! I blame pregnancy hormones and Lemony for making me cry and be in a tiz. :)

Hope you recover quickly and enjoy every sleepless minute!

Squeshie · 26/01/2011 23:51

Just a quick pop in as am ill and on assessment week at school, so not much free time!

Well done lemony and mucho congrats :)It definitely sounded like you deserved a baby after that exhausting labour ;)

Hope everyone else is fine, Pants get well very soon! Save me a large something or other in the pit - and fx for the arrival of the rtd this week... emotionally it feels on it's way.

Absolutely nothing on the old SW here, hubby is away working til Friday. Awh well not feeling at my best so perhaps taht's not too bad! Hope there's some better numbers out there xxxxxx

UmBongo · 27/01/2011 17:08

HOOOOOOOOGE CONGRATULATIONS Lemony and to baby lemonmuffin! I really am truly thrilled for you allGrin Don't worry about s e x - you don't need to now!!! Just give your very D h lots of hugs for being wonderful!

Points to Pants for her STSIISC! Smile

We are still at 1 for SW Squeshie hubby present but keeps falling asleep - don't think he fancies getting this cold back again! Will try again tonight. Even wasted a dose of preseed a few nights ago as I thought my luck might be in and I had doped myself up on decongestants! Snogging with blocked nose not easy!

Fairygodmother1 · 27/01/2011 20:13

FAN-BLOOODY-TASTIC News Lemony I'm in tears too!!!! Thank god Cherry Muffin arrived safe & well! Give your DH a big hug & a kiss from all of us for being fab!!! Grin

I'm well emotional at the moment anyway!!!

Well done Pants!!!

LOL Umb!!!! We're on SW4! Still lots of EWCM...fingers crossed!!!!

UmBongo · 28/01/2011 12:01

STOP PRESS SW 2!!! I had given up but hubby came to bed an hour after me and had even shaved his beard off! (He doesn't have a beard - but only shaves about once a week!)

Hows everyone today Pants? Lemony and baby muffin?

HalleLouja · 28/01/2011 14:42

Mememe post. I am feeling homicidal. Do you think I can kill my mum and get away with it. She told me that she is not a messy person. She's messier than me and that us saying something. She is still living with me. Even though she has her own flat which she can live in until its done up.

She has now lived with us for 4 and a half months and apparently its me who is being ungrateful.

Rant over.

notheroldie · 28/01/2011 16:28

I am amazed at your patience lou, if it were my mum 4 days and I'd be throttling her.

Deep breaths, you must remain calm, think of bump!
How much longer is she there for?

umbongo well done for getting a 'cheeky' one in!

pants I am impressed with your eagerness!

Fairy I reckon you'll win this month.

squeshie friday night fun for you?

lia66 · 28/01/2011 16:33

lemony Yey, well done you and welcome to the world little baby muffin. :) xx

Quick hi to everyone else, Sympathies lou with your mum, I imagine your patience is almost at an end now, last thing you need when your nesting will be kicking in is a messy house guest. Can you suggest the pg is making you extra tired and would she mind passing the hoover arounnd/getting dinnerloading dishwasher etc?

Fairygodmother1 · 28/01/2011 17:10

Go Umb Go Umb (circle hand gestures & all that) or should that be for Mr Umb?

halle Chin up love & have some whitelightening!! Hoave you an ETA on her leaving??? I congratulate you for having her for 4 months - 4 hours would do me in!!

Youngie I expected some last night but he didn't come to bed till 2 hours after me. Then tried to cuddle me so I roused from my sleep to tell him I wasn't happy! He hasn't mentioned it yet today. Fingers crossed I get some tonight! Grin

Still have EWCM!!!!! Grin

Hey Lia How's you honey?

UmBongo · 28/01/2011 19:34

Lou you have my sympathy - I really could not live with my mum (although it is I who is the messy one!!!) She has got her own way of doing things and I don't mind when I am helping her at her house, but for her to do it in mine Shock

Go for it Fairy! Try to get Mr Fairy into bed in reasonable time! (Go on use the cavewoman technique - club him and drag him to your cave! Only club him gently of course or he won't be any use!)

Yes, points to MrUmb for services in spite of snot! And the other award goes to .....drum roll please..... Sinex!!!!!

Fairygodmother1 · 29/01/2011 08:04

SW 5!!!!!!
But bloody hell do I feel sick this morning!!! I also seem to be full of cold & done 30 min Wii Active already so that may account for feeling sick!!!

Got a night in a hotel tonight so need to be fit & well!!! Grin

HalleLouja · 29/01/2011 09:19

[Runs and gives Lia a snog]. How are you my lovely? When are you going to pop? Seem to remember 38 weeks was the magic number. 19 and a half weeks here and scan on Tuesday. Have finally got a bump in the last week and look less fat properly preggers now.

Fairy 2 more and you will be my record of 6 - that was also my lucky number if you catch my drift.

Fivealive glad Mr Tropicana is up for the task (literally) [passes over the lemsip and drug supply].

On the mum front she is still alive. Just about Wink

UmBongo · 29/01/2011 18:13

Pleased your mum is still alive! Good luck for trying to persuade her to go and live somewhere else. Quote Health and Safety. If she moves out it will be very important for your health and her safety :)

Chavvy comment heard in newsagents this morning - Mum to child of about 5:
"No you're not having one of those magazines cos you just want the toy off the front - have some sweeties" Hmm

Ds got marched out having bought nothing but MY paper he did start chirruping about wanting a magazine but didn't win!

Squeshie · 30/01/2011 13:31

Howday folks :)

FairgyG - SW5!!! I should be so lucky, not properly mad though cause I now like my body again as RTD as arrived 29 days after D&C - it's all on course for starting again when it's over! Never been so happy to be snappy, spotty and bloated :D Woo hoo!

Glad mums are alive, bumps are looking like bumps and not chub and babies are here, can't believe I am all sweetness and like must be the medicinals and hot water bottle x

harassedinherpants · 30/01/2011 19:45

Squeshie - glad (that seems wrong to be saying on here!) RTD has arrived. Was wondering how long mine would take, will be two weeks on Tuesday.

If anyone figures out a fool proof to bump of a mother, please let me know. My mum doesn't live with me, but only 5 mins down the road. She's into competitive illness at the moment.... 'nuff said Hmm.

SWI'ing, well it's safe to say I'm back in the saddle good and proper. You all need to get your dh's boxing, never had so much since dh started and he's the fittest he's ever been Wink!!!

HalleLouja · 30/01/2011 20:01

[Passes FrenchKnickers some magic potion to knock off mothers and pesky brothers]

harassedinherpants · 30/01/2011 20:33

Oooh thanks....[wonders if it works on 19yr old ds's that have moved back home and are annoying already]

Lou might have to take your hint and name change again, you're very good at this!

HalleLouja · 30/01/2011 20:41

You could do a valentine's name change - if they do a competition for that one.

Anyways we are soon approaching the end of a fred and a new title will be needed. Though it will need to be a non-diffed person that starts the fred. Just in case there is any truth to the rumour that starting a fred wins you a baby with Dazza.

Anyone been to the park recently? Its a bit cold for me though I have my white lightening to keep me warm Wink

UmBongo · 30/01/2011 23:24

FairyG it will have to be you to start the thread cos I don't know how too!

Squeshie - its good that your rtd has put in an appearance, now you can start proper like!

harassedinherpants · 31/01/2011 09:28

Totally wallowing and self obsessed post from me today.......... should have been my 12 wk scan today and am very Sad. Also thinking about going back to work on Thursday, really don't want to but dh thinks I need to get back to normal.

UmBongo · 31/01/2011 12:30

Oh Pants I am very sorry Sad. Take time and don't go back to work until you can get through the day without crying. Big hugs to you.

Similarly I am in the pit as have only managed 2 on SW and my due date has just passed and I am very Sad about that. Have just yelled at ds too. [guilt emoticon!] Not his fault just repeated questions I can usually cope with. Today - NOT COPING.

We need a Blubbing emoticon on here. Have some of my tissues Pants, I just bought some more so have plenty spare. Running out of chocolate though.

notheroldie · 31/01/2011 12:59

Pant and umbongo sorry to hear things are getting you down. Emotions just jump out when you're not expecting them too and it sucks.

I went for counselling today. It was offered at the Hosp where I had my ERPC. I have to say it was really really good. I was able to talk about things that I haven't been able to share with folks in RL. (on here its much easier), so I would suggest that if its available then take up the chance. It really was quite therapeutic.
