MC avengers, still eating cake, 2008 WILL BE OUR YEAR!

[ronshar]

Hey ladies I have been brave and started new thread.
Aquababe will not have to look at her thread opener again.

only 2 sleeps to go before scan! Thanks for all the good wishes, I'm so nervous about it,wish it was over and done with, really hope that its good news. one of the girls in the other waiting room (scully) has had some bad news with her 8 week scan, but I haven't invited her here yet, as the docs are still investigating.
HTGG so dreading the cold beaches, but quite looking forward to the indoor 'heated' swimming pool. The children love Rory the tiger,Bradley Bear,Anxious the Elephant and Greedy the Gorilla so they are really looking forward to the shows. I have nearly managed to pack the kitchen sink, so just waiting for the big day!
MoolieM just checked your profile, we have more in common than you think! I work in a JC too, although I am an old 'BA' employee, I started my career break the year that they merged. I also had my first child 2 months before I was 35, check out my profile now! I work in LO2008, but have worked in aberystwyth,toxteth and wallasey,where are you based?

Emmsy 2 more sleeps will fly by (I hope!)
Oh my goodness I'm ex "BA" too, started in 1995 and transferred to JCP in 2003, always worked at 6909 or 04701 as we are now, can't put the name down as the place is too small and someone might recognise me Bet you can't wait to go back next year (not). The only good thing I can say about them is that for maternity rights and leave they are good, it's the only reason I've stayed for the last few years whilst ttc. Have a wonderfl break x
Bunny To the horrible men at your work f*ck em I say! Get surfing just learn to minimise quickly Hope you've enjoyed your week off hun.
GG Oh my goodness, it's like a whole new house! Perhaps you should post before and after pictures for us so we can share your experience
Hello to everyone else, hope your all well x

MollieM I started in 1987, and started Mat leave in 2003 followed by 5 year career break. Its great being able to have career breaks etc.. but really don't want to go back. I may go back for a month so I dont have to pay back any money (I'm sure its only a month I would have to work for??) just have to wait and see what the circumstances are then! (I have had a few health problems the last 15 months, and will persue the diagnosis when baby born) XX

Well girls, 1 more sleep to go before my scan tomorrow, my H has the day off to look after the children, so wont have to drag them with me. I am going on my own, no one has offered to go with me this time, think folk are not very optimistic about this bean! I am feeling quite scared, wish it was all over and done with, any of you girls fancy coming along with me for a bit of moral support? I will buy you a chocolate muffin and a drinking chocolate!

hello emmsy, just popping in to say I'll be with you! What time are you going in?
I hope you get a decent sleep and then have lots of reason to celebrate on your hol.
xxxxxxxxxx
see you and your jumping bean tomorrow!

Good luck for tomorrow Emmsy!

Will be thinking of you tomorrow Emmsy - let us know... (XXXX fingers crossed for good news)

Thanks girls! spink appointment is for 1.30pm, not sure how long booking in appt will take before scan, but will post when I get home. Thanks for coming with me, I will buy you the biggest chocy muffin that I can find!

Wow - have missed a few days and the messages pile up!
gg - you can shake your poms poms in my direction, although all the work should be done now, am on the dreaded 2ww. AF due April 7th. lol at celeb shags - agree with Mistle re Tom Cruise - in Top Gun days though. Also David Beckham has to go on there. And a threesome with Jack & Sawyer out of Lost! Just think - this time next week your extension will have begun!!
I am a full time working girl btw, although work about 3 days from home per week. Just worked out better for us for dh to go part time with the difference in wages.
MollieM - I am going to be huge with the delicious offering you keep bringing to the thread!
Have invited Loveverona to join this thread - she has just had her 2nd and feeling pretty crappy today
Spink - love your 'in memory' idea, seems very personal.
Bunny - let us know how the acupuncture goes. have wondered about it. Had a colonic just after my 2nds mc to 'detex' the old system!
Daisy - you will have to let us know if tou buy the dress or the sofa!
Ronshar - when is your nuchal this week?
Was dd's 2nd birthday yesterday so had a lovely time but absolutely shattered! Anyone for a piece of Peppa Pig cake?

Mmm cake yes please Jackstini snap I'm on the 2WW now as well, but thinking of a threesome with Jack and Sawyer might help the time pass
cricri nice to hear from you again hun

Hello hello. Have I missed Emmsy? Wanted to wish her good luck before she whizzed off to hosptial. .

Jacks - DD2 LOVES Peppa Pig (or Pigga Pig as she calls her).

Will also say hello to anyone lurking and welcome them in for some cake, tea and a shoulder to cty on. Don't lurk for too long ladies. It's so nice here and we're all in the same boat.

Glad to hear that everyone else is OK and that my pom pom shaking is needed . I think I might give accupuncture I try and you all seem to rate it. And, it'd be great to get everything in tippity top order before TTC again.

Oh and Bunny, yep some of my life has been glam but can I just tell you that I've also done PR for a collostomy bag manufacturer (5 hour seminar on the merits of their product as opposed to their competitors..... YAWN, barf, hurl . So not all glam parties!

Am more than happy to pass on the 'beeny effect' to y'all when the build starts . Do you think we get the big boobs too?!?!?

Oh, and can someone tell me how I can set up my profile page so I can show you some pics of the DD's, DH, me and the soon to be bomb site that was our home. Ta ever so. xx

GG - click on 'my mumsnet' tab at top of page and go from there - look forward to the pics!

HTGG - I managed to do this recently just enough to put some pics on -you need to go to 'my registration' and start from there. You need to do the profile bit somewhat before any photos show up.

Ooh goodie more photo's! I'm such a nosey bint! GG that sound made me laugh when you told us about your PR job for collostomy bags, what on earth did you find to talk about for 5 hrs, think I'd struggle for 5 minutes Bring on the "Beeny effect" my dh is transfixed by her boobs they change size 3 times every episode!

Girls,my baby is just fine! measuring 10 wks and 4 days, due 23rd October, thanks for the support, speak next week XX

Emmsy HOOOORRRAAAAAYYYYYY
So pleased for you hun that is fantastic news, enjoy your holiday now with peace of mind

That's wonderful news Emmsy! :O

Hi all,

I have been lurking for a while but have decided to take the plunge and join in.

After 3 weeks of inconclusive scans, erratic hcg levels and (at least) two incorrect diagnoses, I eventually had a complete, natural miscarriage at home last Thursday . I should have been 10 weeks pregnant but the baby was only measuring 6 weeks. It was my first pregnancy (I posted on the miscarriage board - my name was 'newtoallofthis')

So...I have a new name, this is a new start and 2008 will be our year

PS - Congratulations Emmsy!

Congratulations Emmsy - good news and have a great holiday.

And sorry that its really bad timing for you to join given dates Notsonew. I had mc at 10wks on my first pregnancy, although ended up with D&C. Its really hard. Be kind to yourself and don't expect it to be easy. Those pregnant ladies just seem to pop out of the woodwork all over the place and it can be really difficult. Lots of support here though - I find it very helpful to have a good rant every now and then to people who know what you're going through.
