GYo...what do you think?

calsworld · 03/09/2008 13:05

I've been to champneys springs resort a fair few times before (very pricey, always special offers) but not tried the alton towers one.

It looks much better value for money and last time I went to springs I was pg with DS, my Big Sis treated me - it was very lovely but probably not what I'm trying to acheive this time around

calsworld · 03/09/2008 13:10

Their five hour aqua relaxation rooms at £18.50 sounds nice too.

This is all very lovely, but not sure if I can be arsed to go upstairs and have a shower, never mind get arse into gear and GO somewhere!

GYo · 03/09/2008 13:12

ooh Cal! they all sound great... Elemis facials are lovely, I had one a few weeks ago...

"Gerard's warm chocolate back massage - approx 45 minutes" - thats sounds too good to be true!!!

Could you persuade DH to come too? Have a real treat for the pair of you? My DH loves that kind of thing but understand many might not....

which one will you go for?

OP posts:
GYo · 03/09/2008 13:15

Hmm do appreciate the being arsed to go somewhere issue... Maybe plan it closer to time of going back to work, use it as chance to get yourself "back out" etc...

I love spa days- I want to come now!

calsworld · 03/09/2008 13:25

GYo, if I thought you lived anywhere near me I'd say lets do it. I hate doing stuff by myself. Doing it closer to time of going back to work is a good idea.

Had a phone call from Ikea - the mattress is being delivered next Thursday. I didn't mention - I bought a topper as well

Comfortable nights sleep here we come!

calsworld · 03/09/2008 13:27

Am going off line for a while to watch a film.

See you later, thanks for keeping me company GYo x

GYo · 03/09/2008 13:44

No probs, enjoy your film.

Take care....

PS might be finding myself a spa day now

OP posts:
Dalrymps · 03/09/2008 14:50

Ooh I want a spa day too! No idea if there's anywhere round here like that and haven't got much spare cash though. May just have to make do with a massage from dh

tinkhashadherfirstkick · 03/09/2008 15:17

dd loved her first day she did really well

Dalrymps · 03/09/2008 15:43

Oh good, thats great tink

calsworld · 03/09/2008 18:17

Oh Tink, that's great news!

I watched, 'The Other Boleyn Girl', I don't get to watch period dramas when DH is here - so that's never then.

I can't believe how quiet its been.

tinkhasanactivebean · 03/09/2008 18:47

we have got our 2nd viewing sat @ 11:15am have started tidying.
i luv period dramas 2 cal

Diege · 03/09/2008 18:49

Hello! Been in a training course all day so on;y logging on to compuyer now .
Great that dd enjoyed nursery TINKS - must be a relief .
Spa sounds great idea CALS - oh and would you beleive it I had the same poo thing 3 days after ERPC - shooting pains down left side - even rang hossy. Then after poo all was fine! Must be our bits rearranging themselves! (sorry if anyone's tucking in).
GYO- let me know if you solve the eternal shoe dilemma..I walk to station and back and have had to resort to wearing converse boots and taking heels in bag - so not a good look .
DAL - fingers crossed - you never know!
DDs first day back at school tomorrow, and am working at home [ahem] so willbe nice be get back to normal mumsnet-wise!
CALS - thanks to link to monkey's thread - I'll have a look now

SesHasapinkline · 04/09/2008 07:57

Morning all!

tink - glad dd had a good time at nursery. Also fab news about another viewing - fingers crossed!

Diege - hope your training course was ok. Sometimes I can find them a bit draining.

Cal - I've read the book "The Other Boleyn Girl" but not seen the film yet. Must catch it at some point. Did you enjoy it?

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 04/09/2008 08:05

Morning all

Tink, glad DD enjoyed her day! Is she back there again today?

about monkeybumsmum, I guess she is getting enough support on the MC thread, will be thinking of her.

DS2 is wailing, I expect he wants to come out of his highchair, and I expect my sneeky 5 mins of MN time has come to an abrupt end!

Be back later xxx

GYo · 04/09/2008 08:31

Morning all

1 day to go to my scan. Suddenly very nervous . Looking fwd to it though.

Porridge from work canteen today... not convinced it will be as good as the Cal-special but Im giving it a go!

How is everyone today?

tinkhasanactivebean · 04/09/2008 09:06

morning

ses,nat and gyo

dd is back tom nat and then from next wk will go mon 9-12pm,wed and fri then i can rest

i am feeling abit moody i am tired,pregnancy hormones and dd is playing up the moment gets very active jumping around alot at home i take her out everyday for activity, keeps being naughty doesnt listento no.

Dalrymps · 04/09/2008 09:09

Morning everyone!

GYo - wow one day to go, I rememeber that feeling of being nervous and excited all at once!

Ses and NJ - hi

No porridge for me today, jam on toast, although the 1st round of toast got burnt so it took me twice as long to make it grr

Well, I coouldn't wait any longer so I did my new CBD, it said 'Not Pregnant'

Not sure how I feel, I think a little bit relieved that I don't have to deal with being pregnant as well as the decorating but part of me also thinks that if I had of been we'd have just got on with it... Probably best to wait till jan when it's more convienent.

Teuch · 04/09/2008 09:19

Morning all!

Tink - I think they can pick up on the fact that (whether you are tired, sick, distracted, etc) they can often push you a bit further than usual or get 'yes' when they usually would have gotten a 'no'. DS is in a very cheeky and disobedient stage, but only really with me. I try to give lots of cuddles and respond to shouting with calm talk, and am very strict about taking away a favourite toy or forbidding a treat if he hits/bites or dangerous disobedience. God knows what's for best but I try...

Gyo - how exciting!

GruffaloSoldier · 04/09/2008 09:29

Morning all!

Dal - sorry to hear of BFN- but heres to loads more GOFs eh?

Gyo - if i dont speak to you before you go good luck for the scan. i hope everything is lovely. you will post a scan pic won't you?

Tink - sorry to hear of your DD's behaviour. Hope she lets up soon

I am getting very impatient about my scan date as mw said I would hear within the week. Patience isn't my strong point though!

I am starting looking after some different children this afternoon. So a new job! Im very nervous as I already know the family quite well and am going to have to tell them that Im pg in case the mum wants to get someone else. It is a bit worrying but I found out I was pg the day after i accepted the job!I know I don't have to tell them yet but I do really as Im supposed to be getting the child with lang diffs up to speed for school next September, but come April that might be a bit more difficult! Its only a day a week though.

ok enough of my ramblings

GYo · 04/09/2008 09:35

hi

thanks gruff- will definitely post a picture . Good luck with the new family and telling about being PG. Also hope the scan date comes soon- very annoying?

Dal- sorry about the BFN, but as Gruffalo says, means lots more practice!

Morning Ses, NJ, Cal and everyone else.

Canteen porridge not settling well at all?. hoping it will stay put!

OP posts:
Diege · 04/09/2008 09:36

Morning Good to have a skiving working from home day so Ican get bits done and keep up with MN chat .
Bad luck DAL, although the CBDs are notriously bad at picking up early pregnancy. Have you thought about bringing your ttc date forward? Just seems a shame to get back on the wagon iyswim!
HI NAT, hope you're feeling well and that ds gives you some respite! TINKS - tis sooo hard when they play up and you are tired - good advice as always from TEUCH - wish I could be as calm.. Good luck with viewing on Sat (?) too!GYO, will look forward to reading about youe scan tomorrow - v.exciting! HI SES, no more hpts I hope . Agree, training days are the worst - I gave up at 3.45 and made my excuses .
Well I don't know what my body's doing . WEnt for wee this morning (as you do) and loads of EWM on the side of my hand, after wiping , literally dripping off my wrist . I thought, ooh, must tell the girls . Don't think it's ovulation (I'm on cd19) but it's my goff day anyway so nothign to lose. Think my body's lost the plot a bit this month, as I keep getting EWM every few days, then followed at next toilet visit by the thick stuff. Many apologies if you're having porridge .

Dalrymps · 04/09/2008 09:43

Thanks ladies,

Diege - Just npt sure about bringing ttc forward, i'm worried I won't be able to coap with such a small age gap (I know I would if I had to). For some reason, in my mind, 23 months is faaaaar more managable than 18 months, in reality there's probably not a lot of difference!

Plus, i'm a bit worried what others will thinks if I go for such a small gap...

Good that you've got plenty EWM, go for it!!!
