About time I start a thread! Pom poms still shaking, bumps growing, babies and toddlers talk a plenty, while the support, laughs, hand holds and weebling continues...

Thanks so much ladies! We had such a lovely day, both boys so well behaved & Jude on top form making everyone laugh. Will post cake pic tomorrow, he was quite chuffed with it :)

VJayJubilee · 06/06/2012 07:32

Happy birthday to bigbroblue SmileSmile

4everhopeful · 06/06/2012 08:26

Sorry for belated birthday greetings to Jude... Glad you all had a lovely day...

Birthday greetings to master Blue today too...

Will post properly later, have had a crappy few days with quite horrible heavy clotty bleeding, dunno if the wk of cyclogest made it worse.. Both Dh and I have had heads in a bit of a mess about embarking on this again for an 8th time, should we just be grateful being blessed with Summer when she was all we ever wanted? Are we asking for too much? Could we go through this yet again? However my heart aches to make her a sis and give her an extended family of her own... Think we desperately need our little hol on monday and will be very good for us to get away and have a break...

Thanks so much to you all for your very lovely posts and tx, supportive as always, its helped hugely.. Love you... Xxxxxxx

Blue Happy birthday to "I"
4Ever it is a difficult one to know what to do but remember you've got immunity for 3 months so you could just see what happens before making a final decision? Smile only you know what is right for you and your family and what feels right in your heart x

cupcakefairy · 06/06/2012 16:35

Happy birthday to your ds1 blue :)

4ever so sorry you're feeling all in a tizz about what to do next :( really hope your holiday helps put things in perspective and makes you smile a lot xxx

Cake piccie up on profile...not that impressive but I was quite pleased with it :) ds just immediately grabbed one of the biscuits and scoffed it Grin

4everhopeful · 07/06/2012 09:23

Happy special Birthday to Buddha! Remember 40's are the new 30's dahling! Wink Hope you have a fabulous day... Also meant to say well done to your Dh.. Smile

Belated well done also to Mrvjay, great cause..

Moon every best wish to you for a beautiful and magical wedding day! Smile Can't believe its tomorrow! I send my wedding gift of sparkly babydust to you both...

Cupcake cake looked lovely, the charlie & lola cake toppers worked really well, bet J was chuffed..

Am feeling a bit more like me again today, (i think Hmm) but we are decided that we definitely have to give it another shot whilst still covered by the treatment, albeit with great trepidation... Confused Have just looked on babymad & gonna have to stock up on loads of tests cos after going through this, if we are lucky enough to even conceive again, ill be testing daily, Confused yet another factor to be thrown in the mix.. Confused

Mrs Moon is in the building Grin can you believe someone already has mrsmoon Shock so this was the closest I could get.

Very quick fly by to make sure you are all ok, thanks so much for the lovely wedding wishes :)

Will be back in a few days once we're back down to earth, and will see if I can get hold of some photos to share with you all.

Lots of love to you all xxxxxxx

cupcakefairy · 10/06/2012 13:59

Yaaay hi mrsmoon!! :) so sorry not to have posted on your big day so glad you had an amazing time. Enjoy your 2 weeks off!

4ever how are you doing lovely?

We've just had lovely long weekend at in-laws introducing ds2 to extended family, he's been v well behaved :) now to face tomorrow, my first day flying solo Confused terrified!

Rumours · 10/06/2012 19:18

Hello lovelies, I have pm'd you all today, if you've not had one let me know.
mrsmoonmrs can't wait to see the pics Smile and congratulations again Smile

4ever I've already said it but have a lovely relaxing healing holiday xxx

I'm having a wee stress at the moment, not related to the pm I sent. I have been worried about ds2's speech development on and off for a while now, anyway I thought I'd ask nursery what they thought, and apparently he hardly speaks there Shock. He talks at home but not as much as he should, so was surprised he says nothing at nursery. Dh says he could be shy. I'm seeing his HV in a couple of weeks and will speak to her. I think we'll be heading to speech therapy. Im a little anxious but will just get on with it as always.
I do feel better 'talking' about it, as we've not told anyone in rl because I don't want them to jump to any 'obvious in their eyes' conclusions.

Hope every ones ok, off to make a cuppa and eat some cake Smile

barbie1 · 10/06/2012 20:53

Geez due to the bloody French (again) Internet has been intermittent so I couldn't Post on moons big day, nor wish cupcakes boy and blues boy happiest of birthdays. Not forgetting the lovely Buddha turning 40!!! I hope you all had a wonderful time celebrating.
4ever you have been in my thoughts., even my dh was gutted for you. We will all be here with you, helping you with whichever decision you make.
Rumours, thanks for email sounds like you could do with a wee bit of hand holding yourself love. Stay strong as I know you can be.
I'm on my phone, my final cell number is with me now so I will pm you all tomorrow or what's app if I see you are on it too

BuddhaBelly · 10/06/2012 23:44

moon Congratulations Mrs hope you had a wonderful day Grin
4ever Thanks for birthday wishes, had a fantastic day (even though I had to work) dh arranged a surprise BBQ which was brilliant, decorated the house arranged a cake etc I was very impressed! Pleased you've decided to stay on ttc wagon with me might have been lonely for me and Moon Wink
Barbie what on earth is going on with the French and their Internet?? Hmm
Rumours ds2 is in good company as H V referred E to a speech therapist, we've been on waiting list for over 6 months now. I asked my cousin the other day who runs a nursery and is SEN trained and she confirmed he has a problem Sad but I'm glad it's been picked up (although my nursery haven't noticed!)

barbie1 · 11/06/2012 13:11

Hi girls I have started to email, what's app and text my new number. If you haven't got it I will be getting to you shortly...
The Internet isn't the problem, it's dh the speed. Dh isn't happy with the download and connection speed, apparently because we are near a forest and out of town it's the best we can hope for but dh has been making holes and connecting all sorts of cables in hope to improve it. Instead it's been intermittent! All sorted now, dh is happy, I'm happy and i sure the supply company is happy that dh isn't hassling them any more Grin

Rumours · 11/06/2012 13:16

Hi buddha 6 months is a long time to wait, give them a ring and see where you are on the list, sometimes it helps.
What problems did your cousin say E had? I understand if you don't want to say. Nursery are saying that ds2 just isn't communicating as he should, he's only saying one or two words, no sentences, whereas my concerns are that he doesn't say as much as he should but he is saying more than he is at nursery. Ds1 was different at home and nursery too, I actually went to observe ds1 so I could see what they were talking about.

Rumours · 11/06/2012 13:17

But both boys are happy wee monkeys, and that's a positive Smile

barbie1 · 11/06/2012 13:24

Happy is a good way too be Smile

moonmrs · 11/06/2012 13:25

I've managed to scrounge a few pictures, hope you can see them. I cant wait to see the rest!

barbie1 · 11/06/2012 13:28

Did I tell you that Henry is fully f fed now? It's been nearly 5 weeks since I nearly lost the plot back home and the doctor told me to put him on formula, and boy what a change. He is happy, smiley and he even sleeps! He goes down after being awake for an hour, so in a day he sleeps for about 5 hours! In bed at 6pm, dream feed at 10 and another at 3, sleeps til 7. Tis ruddy marvellous after dolly! Although dolly has been fantastic, put her in bed at 6.30 and she plays, reads and sings until she crashes about 7.30. She doesn't get down, or call out..we just read a story and walk out! She has been sleeping til gone 7am too...all these wasted months of sleep training, all we had to do was to move to France!

barbie1 · 11/06/2012 13:30

Moon, your pictures made me all weepyBlush you looked beautiful, loving the dress...I can see a very happy future for you and your new dh Smile

Neeko · 11/06/2012 14:09

Moonmrs Congratulations! lovely pics. what a beautiful bride you were (and MrMoon scrubbed up well too! Grin)

Barbie welcome back to proper posting and to the land of sleep. You sound much happier.

Rumours Thanks for the PM. I'll be in touch soon.

Buddha and Rumours sorry you're both having such a worry about your DSs. I really hope you both get some reassurance soon.

Well I did a baby equipment sale on Saturday. I had loads to sell as did many others but unfortunately very few people came and after the donation to Caner Research for the stall I made the princely sum of £3.50! Grin My DH said Sir Alan would have fired me no problem. Most of the stuff's on Gumtree now but no takers so far...

Other news here is that we have booked or Florida with extended family in July 2013. Excited but also a bit what have we done? Smile

Cupcake and MLS Hope you're both coping well flying solo today.

Neeko · 11/06/2012 14:10

Oh and Buddha happy belated birthday. Sounds like DH did you proud Smile

monkeybumsmum · 11/06/2012 14:56

Just a quicky from me - Moon what beautiful photos! You look stunning, and very happy! Here's wishing you and your dh (woohoo!) lots of luck and happiness for the rest of your lives together!

Neeko hello! That's so weird as we are going to Florida next July too Grin Where will you staying? We're staying about 20 mins from Disneyland/world - I never know which is where! It would be funny if we were near each other!

Buddha happy belated birthday from me too! Your dh sounds lovely Smile

Rumours haven't read the new pm yet, will do now!

Love to all
