Hello lovelies!

A very HAPPY birthday wish to lovely Monkey! You deserve to be royally spoilt as one of these lovely ladies once saud to me! Hope your bos come up trumps!

Bluelurkingatwork Hope all good with you lovely, your posts always make me smile, specifically the prozzie shoes and literal dancing!

Brings me on to Mermaid, so with you on the wedding etiquette! Glad to hear you had a mojito status quo induced haze of fun!

BTW thanks for comments about my christening outfit! Was sooo nice to get really dressed up again, pink shoes courtesy of M&S, more expensive than the dress, from Next!

Louey lovely weeble, bound to be analysing evey feeling you have or dont have, think you are doing incredibly well...Hang in there, dig deep in that sand...

BQ same goes for you, hope you are doing ok?

Barbie well done and a zillion gold stars for perserverence, I think your strong willed lil lady gets her traits from her mummy! You'll soon be drunkenly staggering home, hopefully you will get a night or 2 when your mum comes over?

QA also laughed muchly at the tipping chair - another funny poster indeed!

Vjay love love love the penny walk idea! Thats something my dad would of loved, agree with Cupcake you are one fabby mummy & should write a book!

Cupcake your anniversary sounds picture perfect, glad it was so lovely and what a fab pressie from your bf!

Our halloween was great, surprised our mums with our gorgeous lil pumpkin trick or treating! Toooooo cute! Also did huge batches of sweet potato & parsnip, which she loved! Got weighed on weds and is now 16lb 1oz She's currently sitting on my lap chatting nonsense and blowing raspberries very loudly!! OOh yea and she sat up unaided for a few mins on saturday! Right she's now starting to grizzle, back asap! to everyone else! x x x x x

Ok shes crawling all round the floor now so had a few mins to upload her halloween pics!

Also the image of Ajay reading made me and reminded me of some pics I took a few wks ago of Summer 'reading' the books my great aunt sent her, so put that up too!

blue and mermaid and qa made me laugh so much....you girls are just so much fun!

blue would love to see you dance, i bet you put your handbag down and literally dance around it. Do you do the mad head thrashing too?

louey yep, every day feels like a week during the first three months, we are here to entertain you and keep negative thoughts at bay...hope the school was ok? I hope the school that you really want finds a space for your ds though, fingers crossed.

vjay penny walks sound great, i have to try it.....when i can move again! Buggy fit was hell on 4 wheels. Started of with a nice walk around the compound, then had to jog around the lake, so far so good.....then we had to do lunges, squats and press ups on the grass while the kids played and then the bitch instructor made us run around the lake again! all in 34 degree heat. I never knew i had muscles in my bum, they are aching like mad!

4ever did you send bigger pics out to the mail list? i can only see very small pics on your profile so cant see your lovely shoes etc well done for s sitting up you watch she will soon be mobile!

cupcake what a fab way to celebrate your anniversary, sounds like a fun date. How is j? has his sleeping improved any?

bq are you ok in all that sand????

blue another brother or sister for dolly are you mad????????
Im happy with one for now, and anyway dont you need to have the energy to do something to make another sibling, id rather go to bed to sleep! We did say we would try again in Feb. We shall see how the hospital and the test go and how this sleep situation pans out before i made any rash decisions.....(makes mental note not to forget her pill tonight)

Well sleep training is going ok, touch wood.
Last night she was in bed by 6.30, woke at 9pm but i wanted to watch the end of cher on x factor and by the time the song had finished she was fast asleep...until 1.15am!!! (wont mention the 2 wakes at 2.25 and 5.15am)
Just now i put her to bed half asleep, she mumbled but didnt cry and she is asleep now. If only it would work for naps slowly slowly....

Poor Lilly Allen

vjay spooks tonight, well tomorrow for us...i cant wait, i love it although i dont always get the story line

4ever awwww too cute!

Thanks Barbie!! i will try and e mail a pic too! Buggy fit sounds like its torture great! I miss exercise! What happened to Lily Allen?

here

oh no i just see on MSN poor poor thing will be devestated and traumatised.. She needs some Emmsys support in the months to come...

4ever that was just what i thought ... it really doesnt matter how much money or how famous you are it still bloody hurts

I actually just cried reading that link.. Makes you just thank god to be finally blessed with a child.. She will of lost hope, I pray she finds it again... Us ladies know you have to cling onto it with both hands so the awfulness of losing a baby doesnt eat you up completely forever...

x -post, its just knowing your not alone in your grief, that is whats invaluable about our precious thread...

i cried too, poor girl...Lets hope that something good comes out of it (iyswim) like mc being taken seriously, and not swept under the carpet like the taboo subject it has been for too long.
I really didnt know whether to mention it at all, but if we cant talk about it who can?

louey and bq please forgive my stupidity for mentioning Lily Allen...i should of thought about it more before posting, you really dont need any more ammunition for feeling wobbly and there i go and put my bloody foot in it sorry girls

Don't worry barbie had already heard about it on the radio. I feel absolutely wretched for her. Apparently she had a viral infection the week before, I wonder if that had anything to do with it.

Quick wave, back to work for me

louey Cjay did enjoy Hallowe'en, he just went trick or treating round at our neighbours house, Ajay had no idea

blue lol at a book to keep wee ones busy . Loved your description of you dancing and doing the actions, me and my sis are the same you should us dance to 'reach for the stars' by S club 7

Back in a mo...

oh poor Lily Allen that is awful

Yay to spooks barbie I don't get it either sometimes, but still love it.

4ever those pictures are soooo gorgeous, I love the one of Summer reading, clever girl

Hello sorry not been on been feeling really rough this week nausea and vomiting worse feeling totally wiped out back soon

Poor BQ hope you feel a bit more human soon. Just keep thinking that it means you have lots of hormones flying around which is only good.

Goodness, I feel so sad for Lily Allen :( can't imagine going through that in the media spotlight. Poor, poor girl :(

4ever love the new pics! Jude is also constantly blowing raspberries it's hilarious!! He can sit up for a few minutes if he's holding onto his feet too- so cute!

barbie Jude's sleep is a lt better thanks.. since doing pupd he goes off to sleep like a dream at bedtime. For naps we put on his musical light show cot thing that he stares at and then drifts off to sleep :) His wakings are still hit and miss- some night lots of wakings and lots of crying, some nights just one so hard to say really.

MLS hope you and your girls are doing ok. Is dh back at work?

We start swimming lessons tomorrow :) My dad is over for the day so is gonna take some piccies.

monkey hope you had a lovely day.
Lots of love to all x

Hello ladies so so SO sorry for going AWOL. Please don't think that now I've given birth I'm going to abandon you all - nothing could be further from the truth. You have all helped me through the darkest days of my life so I'm going nowhere & as one of you wise ones once said, we are all here until every last one of us has had a baby.

I've not been able to catch up properly, the lovely Neeko has been keeping me abreast of what has been going on.

Louey - YAY girl! Yes I did happen to peek at your chert the day you had your bfp & I sent Neeko a text in a fluster saying I didn't have time to check the thread & I didn't know if it was common knowledge or not!

LBM sorry little babybelle is poorly. I hope she is recovering well, give her a big kiss from me.

BQ phew, so relieved for you & in the nicest possible way, I'm glad you are feeling so sick!

My girls are fine, thanks to everyone who's been asking. Dd2 has been keeping me on my toes but touch wood she seems to have figured out her night from her day. She's also starting to settle in her moses basket at night (rather than in bed with me) - I just need to start getting her to space out the time between feeds & stop her using me as a dummy. Tomorrow my goal is to have 20 seconds spare in the morning (without a baby on my arms) to be able to weigh myself!

Has anybody else lost their pics on their profile?? I had loads on mine but suddenly they are not there.

Right off to bed as I'll be woken up for a feed in approx an hour & 15 mins.

MLS please don't apologise - I think we all realise that you have just a little on your plate at the moment . It is so lovely to hear from you and especially that DD2 has worked out that she needs to sleep at night. There is light at the end of the tunnel. LOL at her using you as a dummy. How is DD1 taking to her? Can't believe you were stalking my chart with all that going on!!!!

Cupcake how did Jude's first swimming lesson go?? Hope you got some good photos of his first dip.

Its very quiet on here, really hoping that all the babies have not reverted back to keeping their mummies up all night (neeko and barbie thinking of you in particular).

Iggy if you are lurking, big hugs for the lack of sleep you are getting with piglet at the moment.

Monkey hope your b'day went ok. Let us know how you are x

Tube strike today and I've decided to "work" from home. Would have to walk approx 40 mins each way for part of the journey and I'm so knackered already that I think it would just finish me off. Nausea has been pretty bad last couple of days. Did my last digi test last night and it said 3+ so hcg is definitely going up.

Right, back to sorting out Isaac's statement (still not done....)

Louey dd1 is being lovely to dd2, really gentle & cuddly. Sorry if you've already said this but are you going to be able to have a scan at 7 weeks? I remember those early days of constantly doing test upon test just to check the line etc, it's a real headf**k.

MLS got a GP appt tomorrow. Will ask him to refer me to EPU. I phoned EPU yesterday to check their protocol and they said he just needs to fax through my details to them and then they would contact me. Hopefully should get a scan around 7wks. Don't worry, I'm going to stop testing now Glad that DD1 is being so sweet

mls hello so pleased to see you , you've lost your pictures because you've name changed, they'll be saved to your old name but I think you can move them over.

louey and bq big yay to feeling knackered and sick and just generally crappy and hormonal, it can only be good

cupcake how did the swimming lessons go?

neeko you'll be so proud of me, dh sat with a big bar of chocolate last night and offered me some, I turned it down and had a sour satusuma instead , I wonder how long I can keep this up for

Well I power walked to school this morning, but only because we were late, then lazily walked back and Ajay is still asleep all cosied up in his buggy and muff, (it is called a muff isn't it?).

Vjay how do you move your pics over then oh wise one? Sour satsumas....... yummy ! Oh & I think the word you are looking for is footmuff!
