barbie boo to stupid companies messing you round! Ooh I'm gonna look at White Company though, need a duvet set for ds.

4ever thanks for the heads up re mothercare toy sale too must take a look. We have all sorts of practical things planned for ds Christmas though- like that cute kids table & chairs from Ikea, and stuff like a waterproof playsuit...toys? We'll leave that to the grandparents Grin

littlebellsmum · 14/10/2011 19:20

wow, MLS, I'd missed the scan too. So pleased it was good news - brace your self for a small age gap then!! Great news

budhha so pleased I didn't put you off Grin

Got a night out tomorrow night in town with no husband. First big night out I've had alone since DD1 was born!!

VJaaarrrggghhh · 14/10/2011 21:00

Nice one mls Smile

MummysLittleSunbeams · 15/10/2011 06:52

VJay why the aaarrrrggghhhh?? Hmm

VJaaarrrggghhh · 16/10/2011 04:38

Hi mls a number of reasons really, my exam was tricky, my lump on my nethers is endemetriosis, I may have gall stones, I'm currently visiting family and can't sleep cos they stress me out too much AND it's nearly halloween [hgrin], bet you wish you'd never asked now!

cupcakefairy · 16/10/2011 10:10

Oh vjay that is pants :( hope the visit isnt too much longer for the sake of your nerves! tell us more about the end & gall stones? any treatment etc? u must be Confused

buddha dying to know- did he break the record??

must admit to feeling wobbly about this bean, my symptoms have disappeared, no more nausea or hunger & boobs less tender.. i know means nothing really but still worried.. only 10 days to go!

vaguely remembering cjay & lbm have birthdays about now, hope all enjoy :) x

VJaaarrrggghhh · 16/10/2011 12:49

Thanks cupcake and yes it's cjays birthday tomorrow, he will be 9!!!!!!
I'm on my way home now [hsmile] heading up the m6 as I type.
Not sure about the endemtriosis yet I've not had the letter, the secretary read it out over the phone as I was getting impatient and as for the gall stones I've been having pain for ages so the gp had put me on some tablets to see if it's a gastric problem first if not it could be gall stones, I have indegestion that then radiates out to my right shoulder and into my neck.

Now as for you, hand and hairstrokes, I'm sure the symptoms dissapearing is your body used the hormones already [hsmile]

Can't wait for spooks tonight xx

barbie1 · 16/10/2011 16:35

Hello lovelies

A belated whoop whoop for mls I did lurk for most of the day but we had a BBQ to go to in the afternoon and by the time we got back we were all pooped and ended up in bed at 8pm Shock im very happy for you, long may all this good news continue...bloody [hangry] about k appointment though, it's really not on...

I am sure there will be good news for you cupcake in 10 days time. I had days where I had zero symptoms, all I can say is make the most of them because they will come back and bite you on the ass very soon!

vjay it's not like you to be so stressed [hsad] I hope the drive home was a peaceful one and you are calmer as you get closer to home. I can not believe cjay is 9!!!!! [hshock] I had no idea he was that old, In my mind he was only about 6...
I don't know much about endo apart from it can effect fertility, how does it effect you day to day? I have heard of gall stones, what are they going to do for you? Envy of you watching spooks tonight, dh is working until midnight, then tomorrow is his football night so unless he gets home early I have to wait until Wednesday, cos I have booked to go back blonde and short on tues....

louey I hope you enjoyed your first post Oscar dinner date?

Waves to everyone else, I hope you are all ok

Just a brief update on goings on here...
Looks like 99% sure that we are here until at least April...breathes a huge sigh of relief to be giving birth over here.

Heart hospital today gave me the all clear, the hole isn't any bigger and the palpitations are not so bad that I require medication. Just have to keep away from caffeine and chocolate ( hides bag of m&s buttons) will have to go back in three months just before I give birth to see if I need blood thinning injections again. After the birth I will have to have the op that I have been putting off for so long.

Dolly is sick after her injections, cold like symptoms and grump as hell...also the doctor raised some concerns about her weight again. She is still under 9kg and not even on the scale Sad when she reaches two she will have to have blood test, kidneys checked and a MRI scan to make sure there is nothing untoward going on. Personally I think she is just petite but the doctor really wants us to get her on the chart...dinner times are hell, she is fussy anyway but every time she refuses something it stresses me out. Can't stop blaming myself for her size Sad

Scan tomorrow at 3.30 and then results on Wednesday at 11am, very nervous...have booked myself up all week to keep busy and mind active, so if I'm not around too much you will know why.

Oh and a massive belated congrats to our brain box bakingqueen!

Night all xx

Neeko · 16/10/2011 22:00

Hello. Been lurking on my phone for over a week so I'm bound to miss thangs as I've already posted in my head!

MLS still smiling for you! Hope the search for skinny mat clothes improved.

Cupcake Only women who've miscarried expect to feel pregnant for every millisecond of their pregnancy. I'm sure bubba is fine. Also you're so busy with Jude that you don't have time to feel every twinge. Did you try the spatone?

Vjay hugs from me. Hope you get the health stuff under control soon. Bet you've aced the exam tho! As for family... you know I join you in the aaarggghh!Oh and happy birthday to cjay. 9? P>S> still waiting on an answer from Pjay re decorating Grin

Buddha Shaking my pompoms for you! I echo what everyone says about not having two the same as mine look like two peas in a pod but are polar opposites personality-wise. I had my terrible sleeper second, as you know, so it sound like you're due a textbook one. well done for several nights in a row. Bet you feel more tired but don't worry, that will pass!

Barbie pleased for you that you're staying but Sad that I won't get to meet you and Dolly. Glad to hear things are more settled with your heart. As for Dolly. She sounds in perfect health to me and is just a headstrong young lady! as she's so petite she probably doesn't need much and no child chooses to starve. Try not to stress. I know it's easier said than done as mealtimes are often a battleground with H too.

Curly any symptoms yet? Crossing fingers and toes for you.

Louey and LBM Hope you both had nice evenings.

I'm on holiday this week. Hurrah! M is having her cousin over tomorrow for her first sleepover. It'll be tears or laughter depending on their mood. Girls! Lots going on here still but not quite ready to post about it.

Love to all I've missed and a special mention to Moon. Rooting for you every day.
