Now also, in honour of the Rugby World Cup, we can also take our pick of the strapping, fine-thighed walking sperm banks who will be on display in New Zealand soon. I vote myself to be the tournament's physio and also we can judiciously place a few eager volunteers into the Pit for Gloom purposes. They are so incredibly tough that they are not likely to go the way of Daniel, Cap'n Jack and Mitchell.

Roll up, roll up....baggsy the first go on Jonny Wilkinson.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 29/10/2011 18:35

Stoopid Droid! Comiserations dor

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 29/10/2011 20:51

What are the BESHes doing this chilly Saturday night?

AuntieDoris · 29/10/2011 20:55

Cutting patchwork pieces to make a quilt for my little cousins wedding present, watching shit TV and hiding peoples status updates on Facebook.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 29/10/2011 20:57

Wow that makes you sound talented. X factor?
Ah the fb status hell. I'll end up.not.being able to see anyone but DH at this rate.

CaveMum · 29/10/2011 21:09

Evening all! We spent part of this evening on a Ghost Walk round Cambridge. Not in the slightest bit scary [big wuss] but very interesting. Apparently they performed an exorcism in one of the colleges in 1997 due to a ghosty Shock

Sorry droid got you Doris [hands over Wine and cake]. I'm due droid sometime in the next week, if my calculations are right. TBH who the feck knows, I'm on something like Day 65 of this cycle, but I did get a temperature bump last Saturday and it's stayed up ever since. No chance of being diffed: DH works away during the week and last weekend his brother was staying with us and DH, ahem, had a tad too much to drink to be of any use Wink

Don't talk to me about annoying FB statusseess. I'm not kidding when I say 3 people have posted baybee related stuff today: my friend in Oz posted pictures of a photoshoot [tres cheesy] she's had done with her hubby and 6wk old daughter; a friend of DH's posted photos of his teeny newborn daughter (3 days old) and another friend has started her "21 days before my due date" countdown.

Honest to god if I don't get diffed soon I may be forced to satisfy my broodyness by getting a box full of kittens!!!!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 29/10/2011 21:51

I was meant to be at a cocktail party but felt too rough so stayed in and have watched crap tv. Still playing hide and seek with the Droid.

AuntieDoris · 29/10/2011 22:21

The most annoying thing about FB now is that unless people have their settings right you can see every time a friend posts on one of their friends pictures of statuses. For some reason everyone I know seems to have friends who are pregnant and therefore they are commenting on their bloody scan picture. Argh!!!!

AuntieDoris · 29/10/2011 22:23

Also, I have just been on and hidden the first three status updates on there. I would like to say I am unreasonable but I am fed up with hearing the countdown to expected due date.

God I am sooo unreasonable tonight. I am even horrifying myself.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 29/10/2011 22:37

I saw a friend's friend post something today. Her profile pic was her baby sucking it's thumb. Made me feel suck.
If it's cd1 dor, you're entitled to be horrfyingly unreasonable.

AuntieDoris · 29/10/2011 22:57

CD1 an now I am drinking whisky. It eases the pain!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 29/10/2011 23:07

Cheers.

LauraPalmer · 30/10/2011 00:19

hatred for droids. i'm on the loads of wine because certainly...I must keep waiting.

LauraPalmer · 30/10/2011 00:24

apparently the exW wants to have coffee with me "because I'm sooooo good with stepSon". yeah, that's great and all when you want to fuck off to hang out with your overseas BF, bio-mom. Nice. I spend more time with your son than you can manage. grrrrrr.

LauraPalmer · 30/10/2011 00:25

sorry BESH, I'm really drunk.

LauraPalmer · 30/10/2011 00:27

Being a Step-mum is fucking freaky...I get all the troubles and (sometimes beautiful mess) of being MUM but I'm not.

I want a baybee. My own baybee.

I feel wrong for being so selfish

AuntieDoris · 30/10/2011 08:40

That's not selfish. Have a gin. I know it is only 8.40am but hair of the dog and all that.

I am crippled this morning. The combination of sitting on the floor cutting out patchwork pieces and the evil droid have put my back into spasm this morning. It hurts! :(

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 30/10/2011 08:48

It's not selfish to want a baybee when you're a step parent. It's not the same!
I am still Droidless but getting bfn.

blonderedhead · 30/10/2011 10:09

Ohhhh went to a young people's party and done drunk lots of gin. In pre-mixed cans.

Oh my head.

p.s. boo for your droid Doris

Thanks for the encouragement bugs. I figure until it arrives I'm still in the running. Just keeping my mind on other things.
Sorry you are still snuffly :( is the reality sinking in yet?

Faith how are you getting on? Read your other fred. Hope you've had an ok day.

Bugger you're not a crazy cow. Must be the weirdest thing. On one hand I'd want to run round shouting about it and on the other hand I'd be petrified of even mentioning it.

Just had a message deleted by mumsnet on another fred.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 30/10/2011 20:55

Hiya sunny yeah, hanging in their. Had a nice day with MSB. Church helped me calm down. Decided not to test again for a bit, figure if it's gonna be a bfp it will be or the Droid will show.
What did you post?!
bugs that's so tough, how sad for the others. I think you're like pretty much every other woman expecting her first baybee :)
