Going out for dinner with MrsKate tonight. Grin We've never been out together at night before so we thought it was about time!

My two are asleep, 5 mins to get ready, then go.

moonmrs · 16/04/2013 20:23

Have a good time Smile

4everhopeful · 17/04/2013 01:07

Ahhh hope mrsk & remindme had a lovely evening! Smile Best of luck at your scan tomorrow mrsk, so glad there's no infection..

Rumours no justification needed for enjoying a moment of 'you' time, we all need that! Even just to food shop! Smile I like the food shop too, used to be a family afternoon out sad but am banned by DH since pregnant and really miss it!!

Cupcake hope normality is resumed & DS2 managed to avoid the pox lurgy?! Been thinking of you & that awful mumps outbreak, have both DSs had their mmrs?

Moon bless moonbeams food instigated routine! My little man's exactly the same! Did you invest in that maternity wedding outfit yet? Smile

Neeko woop woop 11wks to the big hols! Smile When you telling the girls for that Disneyworld hallmark card moment?! Smile Good luck with ww... Can't wait to start shifting weight after littluns arrival, definitely a different neat football like boy shaped bump this time, but still near on 3stone gained already, v noticable in my face.. Feel like a heavy beached whale! (Though embracing it most of the time-- of course! Wink)

Oh yes and to answer your question, 27wk2d!! Officially 3rd trimester! Grin Last big milestone really, now its countdown time! Grin It has flown I must admit, been a whirl of 'to do lists' & various stuff going on, next few wks similar with caravan hol & Summers birthday! Am struggling a bit now with hugeness, uncomfortablity, spd, sore coxis, and everything else, and as you can see from time of post, consistent insomnia instigated by rip roaring nightly heartburn! Confused Still grateful & embracing every symptom though, of course! Should so be asleep, barely slept at all last night and out at 7.30am yesterday morning after fasting for glucose tolerance test at 8am! Results in a few days.. I dropped off just after 10pm, but woke at midnight with fire burning windpipes and achey everywhere, as I do most nights, so here I am posting & about to trawl pregnancy boards! (Lurking only!) Really excited at prospect that birth is actually so imminent, main worry (apart from obvious prayers for a happy healthy outcome) but just panicing a bit about leaving Summer & hoping its not a middle of the night thing & a long drawn out labour... Confused MIL is on standby & only round the corner but am hoping for a neeko stylee hallmark card type get to hospital 9amish to find am nearly 10cm, give birth by midday & home by teatime! Grin Ahhh well, I can dream can't I?!?! Grin Have first of growth scans in 2 weeks to see if he's a biggun like Summer, she was induced at 38w cos of her size but that took 5days Shock just not feasible this time.. Of course there's all the other unknown factors like if this glucose test showed gestational diabetes then it'd be a 38wk induction as standard, or he could be breech then that'd be a section, its all unknowns isn't it? I just don't get why women have birth plans! So long as its a healthy outcome that's all that I could ask and pray for! (Quick would be great though!) Have invested in a 4D scan this sunday, very excited to get a proper glimpse of what our little man looks like! Grin Summers was soooo amazing! Might be able to gage how big he's looking as well! Eeeek! Grin

Lurking at work for mrskate

MrsKate · 17/04/2013 12:03

Hi girls got d+c at 1030 tomorrow least that will be then end of it Sadxx

moonmrs · 17/04/2013 12:28

Aww mrskate I feel so sad for you that's its been so long and drawn out, but at least they are moving quickly and you'll finally be able to come to terms with it all. Big hug xx

4everhopeful · 17/04/2013 13:06

Really feel for you mrsk... Just crap you have had to go through all this and have it so horrendously drawn out... Just very unfair.. Glad they are now finally on the case and once tomorrow is out the way you can finally get some physical closure and start coming to terms with things emotionally...

Big hug for Mrskate Sad

MrsKate · 17/04/2013 20:10

Hi everyone

Just give more details about what happened today . Had scan at 10 am didn't see dr till 11 !!! for them to say nothing has changed in 2 weeks re scan, still got retained products despite 3 severe bleeding episodes. The dr and his registrar requested I have d+c as bleeding for so long and I feel unwell. bloods also were taken so find out if HB low or not tomorrow . I go in at half 10 with view of going to theatre approx 1 ish and hopefully home around evening time is every thing goes to plan . Dh is looking after jack so I will be on my own not looking forward to that SadSad il be on here every 5 mins

moonmrs · 17/04/2013 21:02

Will be thinking of you for tomorrow, hope it all goes smoothly. You know what, we so need a hug icon on here don't we.

Neeko · 17/04/2013 21:51

Mrskate I'm winking tomorrow but will try to pop on and keep you company. Have a readof the aibu threads to distract you. Thinking of you.

Moon we do but it's very un-MN Grin

Neeko · 17/04/2013 21:51

Winking? Blush Working!

moonmrs · 17/04/2013 22:05

Lol I'll be winking too neeko but will lurk if I can. Ahh I know its very un MN but who cares, rules are there to be broken Wink

littlebellsmum · 17/04/2013 22:55

mrskate thats just horrible - good that somethings being done but horrid that you have to go through it and without DH. But onwards and upwards, after tomorrow, you can get back into the saddle and make the most of your enhanced fertility Wink

4ever So exciting - Summers little brother will be here soon. Hope you're getting some sleep? Does Gaviscon help? I have "lovely" memories of waking up with a half disolved tablet on my tongue....

neeko very Envy of your holiday. My db and dsil are there at the moment and have posted almost every day on facebook - looks so much fun

Must go - busy as ever and need some sleep

DD1 has just had a bad dream and came into see us, knocking over my gin and finding my secret stash of mini eggs - not good for one who keeps saying she is dieting!

Neeko · 18/04/2013 07:20

LBM Actually snorted at your post about your secret chocolate stash being rumbled!Grin I wasn't excited about the holiday until recently but really am now. We've booked for lunch at Cinderella's castle with a meet and greet. The girls (and I include myself in that Wink ) may pee their pants with excitement Grin

4ever heartburn is the pits and the reason my two came out looking like beautiful wee monkeys! Smile We're not telling them until June as too soon will have them hyper for weeks and drive us nuts

Moon Totally agree Smile

Wink Wink Wink Wink just doing some winking before working!

Mrskate Here's my hand. xx

Rumours · 18/04/2013 08:29

mrskate thinking of you loads lovely xx

neeko all that winking will make you blind!! I think?? Or is that something else WinkWink

lbm I lol'd more at the gin Grin

4everhopeful · 18/04/2013 09:14

Thinking of you today mrsk... take a good book & a pile of mags for some time passing distractions... This time tomorrow you'll be snuggled up with your boy and it will all be over... x

Waves to all the winkers Wink

Lbm LOL at the actual combo of stashed gin & choc Grin

moonmrs · 18/04/2013 09:31

Wink winking for mrskate here's my hand too.

Lol rumours that is possibly something else!

MrsKate · 18/04/2013 11:15

Just waving and winkingWink at everyone will keep you all posted xxxx

cupcakefairy · 18/04/2013 11:22

Hello ladies!
mrsk massive hug to you...yes come on here and distract yourself. I've just been laughing my head off at the 'questions your toddler has asked' thread (it's on pick of the day.. some VERY funny things there :)

4ever you poor thing, heartburn is the PITS and the worst symptom of both my pregnancies..just horrible. I'm sure your labour will be much quicker this time, even if you are induced. Your cervix will already be open a bit from having Summer so they may be able to break your waters, rather than having to go through all the pessary stuff. But hopefully it won't be GD and you will have a nice spontaneous and quick labour! I was just sooooo pleased to have had a spontaneous start with ds2 after being induced with ds1, it could happen for you too :)

lbm LOL at dd knocking over your gin GrinGrin brilliant.

neeko WOW to lunch at Cinderella's castle!!! I'M peeing my pants with excitement over that and I'm not even going Grin that's amazing!

Well we're now on round 2 of chickenpox :( ds2 had a couple of spots yesterday and this morning woke up absolutely covered in them bless him :( way more than ds1 had... so far he doesn't seem ill at all and is eating etc, but I'm sure he's going to get worse as ds1 got more and more spots for the first 3 days :( poor baby. And poor me stuck in the house! We've already cracked open the Pixar DVDS. Plus I'm back on the diet so I can't even have a feeling-sorry-for-myself piece of cake :(:(

Neeko · 18/04/2013 11:45

This will be short because I can hardly see from all that winking Grin Trust Rumours to lower the tone! Grin Grin

Mrskate Hope you're ok and they take you more quickly than expected.

Cupcake Poor DS2. Hope he recovers quickly. A teensy bit of chocolate to calm your nerves will be fine Smile

MrsKate · 18/04/2013 13:35

Not long till theatre all gowned up and ready to go Sad

RemindMeWhatSleepIs · 18/04/2013 13:46

Just passing by with a quick wink for Kate.

It's mayhem at my house, I'm looking after my brothers boy and friends baby. That's one 3 year old, one 18 month old, one 12 month old and a 7 month old. Shock

Neeko · 18/04/2013 16:47

Go SuperRumours! Grin I'm exhausted thinking about it.

Mrskate Hope it went well xx

MrsKate · 18/04/2013 17:39

Just got to ward from theatre a bit groggy but not to bad Smilexxx
