glaskham · 11/08/2008 18:23

DD has just used the potty and had a wee for the very first time!!! What a day to start!!!!

lardybump · 11/08/2008 18:32

conglatualations little glaskham.... wow how old is she???

glaskham · 11/08/2008 18:36

She was 2 in april, so 2 and 4 months. she's sat on it before today but never done anything till today!!!

SesQal · 11/08/2008 19:14

Glaskham!!! What a day!!!!

Really pleased about your BFP. What did your mum and sister say?
As for little glaskham - she certainly picks her moments! A celebratory potty wee

Well I started out well with continuing with my cycling as got home from work prompt just after 6pm and duly fot changed and got bike ready for another 1.5-2 miles. After 0.9 miles I had a flat tyre!!! Walked home and pumped it up so will try again tomorrow! I know it's one of those things (and I probably got some exercise from walking home and pumping up the tyre) but I really feel as if I failed to do what I set out to
I think I'm just too hard on myself sometimes!

lardybump · 11/08/2008 19:41

Hi ses. I hate getting a flat tyre. I also have done the london to brighton (twice I might add) and love cycling. Dont seem to get the time now that I have dd.

SesQal · 11/08/2008 19:43

WOW! Impressive LB! You all sound so fit and healthy! Have you all been pushing this wagon along instead of riding in it???!!

GruffaloSoldier · 11/08/2008 20:00

Wow Glask! Congrats on BFP. We can be April baby buddies and we should be quite close in edd surely?!

I have a stinking cold so am a bit miserable today. I went to the docs and she said I shouldn't be using olbas oil in steam (inhaling) so am gutted as I have been using it 3 or 4 times today

Am booking in with midwife tomorrow but need to make mind up on which hospital I want.

Told Mum, Dad and step mum tonight. Was really excited about telling Dad but was bricking it telling mum but she was absoluteley fine!So all is good.

Ses - well done for bike ride again - I have been abstaining from exercise as am heavy with cold and don't want to move a muscle!!

Hope everyone else is good.

Tink - bargains sound great - not something I need to worry about just yet but still worth knowing.

How far gone were people when they started showing with their first pgcy??

GYo · 11/08/2008 20:18

Hey everyone

Congrats again Glask

Hey Gruff great to tell your family, but sorry you arent feeling well. Are you still excited?

Hi everyone else >

GruffaloSoldier · 11/08/2008 20:25

Realy excited Gyo - can't think of anything else!!

GruffaloSoldier · 11/08/2008 20:31

How many weeks are you now Gyo??

GYo · 11/08/2008 20:34

re excitement

Im 9wks tomorrow- according to the scan I had. Its amazing how fast its gone but looking back its seemed like time has stood still.

Do you know if you will be Frimley or Royal Surrey?

GruffaloSoldier · 11/08/2008 20:47

Wow 9 weeks, it is going so fast!

With hospitals I need to choose which one!Going to let them know by the morning but I don't know!Argh!

I should probably be posting this in ante natal. Sorry. Going to take me a while to get used to posting on two threads!

Diege · 11/08/2008 21:40

Just a quickie before bed (oo-err). Well done on telling the family Gruff!! Such an exciting time too with first pregnancy - will this be you parents first grandchild?
Re: 'showing', it was at about 20 weeks or so with dd1 for me. You can see a slight bump in my wedding photos at 24 weeks when I stood in profile .
Good luck Lardy with scan tomorrow - you'll be fine. I was so nervous before mine with dd3, and after wished I'd just relaxed and enjoyed it more! SES, you are way too hard on yourself - a gold medal for just getting out the door I say!
Hi GYP - wow 9 weeks already!!! Seems just a week ago you got your bfp .
Right, bed for me, speak tomorrow

GruffaloSoldier · 11/08/2008 21:52

Hi Diege,
Thanks for that, 20 weeks is quite a while - didn't expect that!

My Dad has 5 grandchildren, Mum has 2 grandchildren and DHs parents have three! So not first but lots of cousins for LO to play with range from 10 months to 11 yrs old! DH also has aunties and uncles with young ones so I'm really excited to be adding to the brood.

I am just running a nice warm lavender bath and then bed for me. Am not sleeping well at the mo and tis not helping my cold! I don't wanna go to work tomorrow even though it is just nannying and I can lay on the sofa when having a rough moment - it is still tough though - but it's good prep for motherhood I'm sure!

tinkispregnantwithpickle · 12/08/2008 08:48

dd has her first swimming lesson without me this morning.
we have decided to go with graham and co to sell our house. he is coming over tom morning to measure rooms for floor plan and leaving contracts to sign we have started the ball rolling

SesQal · 12/08/2008 08:51

Very quiet here this morning! I guess a lot of people have moved on to the "next field" now!
I know there's still me, Diege and LBOT here with 2BG waiting to test. Moos are you lurking too? Anyone else?? (Sorry if I've forgotten anyone!)
Hopefully those in the next field will make use of the gate between the two fields still!!!

CD10 for me today so I'll probably start on the OPKs today or tomorrow. Weather doesn't look too cycling friendly this morning so I hope it clears up for later on. DH says I should go out in the rain anyway but I don't know why he says that when he could do with losing about 4 stone and I only want to lose about 1.5 stone and get more toned. He is lucky and feels quite happy whatever his weight!

SesQal · 12/08/2008 08:52

Morning tink
x-posts!

tinkispregnantwithpickle · 12/08/2008 08:58

sq men lol

SesQal · 12/08/2008 09:03

I know!!! He's far too laid back for his own good - literally and metaphorically!

Hope your DD's swimming lesson goes well. How old is she?

Oh - and well done on getting the ball rolling with the house. I know everyone says it's not a good time but if you want to move there's no harm in trying! (That's what we think anyway!) We had someone give us a ridiculously low offer on our house yesterday so we've just gone to the people selling the house we want and given them an appropriately low offer! I expect they'll reject it but nothing to lose!

GYo · 12/08/2008 09:04

Morning all

SesQal · 12/08/2008 09:12

Morning GYo
ing right back at you!

How are you feeling today?

Diege · 12/08/2008 09:13

Morning . Love the field thing SES Hopefully the gate will swing open for us soon .
TINKS: love the verbaudet clothes! And what a good deal you got in the sales .
We've also got our house on the market (coming up to a year now)and had to pull out of a sale as our time-waster pulled out of buying ours . Good idea SES about reducing offer on property you want in light of low offer on yours; we will do the same if we get an offer as the house we want is still on the market.
Hi GYO and everyone else .
Rain has stopped here, but I don't trust it...will stay local today with dds I think, maybe lining the pockets of Blockbusters. Dds are 'dancing' upstairs to a girls aloud cd, so am trying to fit in a few sit-ups etc as can't chance fitness dvd as hate to be interrupted! Maybe tonight, although dh rather smuggle found the bit in my 'Getting Pregnant' book about ideally goffing every other day, even when ovulating so has plans..
Good luck LB with scan!
Speak later
