  • where is everyone??????????????

Sorry you are feeling blue puree - hope you are having a better day today.

Fertility Friend is great then we can all look at your chart and symptom spot with you!

We have had a nice day - a little potter round the shops - got 2 fleecy blankets, some baby toiletries and cotton balls etc plus some books to read in hospital - might be a tad optimistic?!?!?!?

Hope you are all off having fun - Bellie come and let us know you and baby are OK soon! I can't wait much longer! [impatient!]

ChocolateEclair · 08/02/2009 16:46

Oooo and I got my hair cut. It was lovely to be pamperered for half and hour! (looks quite nice as well!)

juanitad · 08/02/2009 17:06

CE - I'm here! Good idea to get books for hospital. As I had a cs I was in hospital for 3 days and newborns do sleep an awful lot! I'm not saying you'll have loads of time, cos no doubt you'll have lots of visitors, but I did some reading - mainly baby books. If you are planning on breastfeeding, can I recommend a book called "What to expect if you're breastfeeding and whar happens if you can't" by Clare Byam-Cook. I found bf really tough going at first, and that book was extremely useful. I also had a trashy novel with me in hospital for when I needed something a bit lighter! I'm so excited that you're getting close now.........I'm going to predict a girl for you! Do you have a feeling either way yourself?

ChocolateEclair · 08/02/2009 17:26

Well everyone seems to think it's a boy - I'm not so sure myself! All the old wives tales point to a boy! (I don't care though! I just want my baby out soon!)

How are you? Is Patrick doing well?

juanitad · 08/02/2009 17:36

We are both well thanks - he seems to be a fairly happy little boy, feeding well now (although like I said it was tough at the beginnig) Our current battle is daytime sleeping - he just doesn't want to! He's not so bad at night, but I think he's worried about what he'll miss if he sleeps in the day, even though he's knackered!

HumphreysCorner · 08/02/2009 18:22

Hello ladies

Hope all OK, am still fighting the MS but have managed a bit of food but that will probably kill me later.

Hope Bellie and baby are OK.

ChocEclair-I predict a boy for you.

Hello all

CE - pmsl at the books to read in hospital!! Magazines possibly.......

Dawni - hope you didn't get woken up by the size nines on the stairs!

HC - hope you are feeling OK

MJIM - hope your litte ones are OK - at least you have DH to help you

Juanitad - glad you and Patrick are doing so well!

Puree and Ladidadi - sorry AF got you - I think I will be joining you back on ttc route again soon.

AF still hasn't shown here but had quite bad spotting again this morning so don't hold out much hope. I treated myself to two cheapie pregnancy tests for next month to cheer myself up

Dawni · 09/02/2009 13:40

Hello ladies

Had a rotten day yesterday, DH was in terrible pain with his thigh/hip, doctor has put him on oramorph and DS managed to puke round the whole bathroom !!!! I was bleaching the toilet, radiator, floor, walls, it went in the shower cubicle, up the back of the door and in my tampon box !!!!!!!! Not a happy day at all, DH is seeing the orthopedic surgeon on thursday so ive taken the day off to drive him as he'll be in no fit state and probably won't be able to remember whats been said, the sooner they take him in and do a full replacement the better....Poor fella said when we need to send the troops in he'll come off the morphine a day before, how humbled do i feel , mind you he might be in the hospital bt then and BDing will be off the menu for at least a few months !! ....But he has to come first, he has been in agony for such a long time.

Hope everyone is doing well and all snow is melting

Laters

MJIM Sorry to hear you had such a poor night, at least your DS wasnt sick with lager mixed with blue wicked followed by donner kebab !!! It was a hell of a colour Hope your DS is much better now....I had to really hide my dissapointment when DH said he needed morphine now, he has held off because of TTCing, but Im sure he would know how i felt, he wants this pregnancy as much as me, we'll just wait and see what happens on thursday and take it from there. Did Naomi nap much today to make up for lastnight ??

Dawni · 09/02/2009 17:29

Willmouse No stairs darling, we live in a bungalow LOL, but the noisy bugger woke us going to the loo !!! Sorry to hear your spotting hun xx

ChocolateEclair · 09/02/2009 18:09

Hi guys - oh how awful about the immense volume of vomit today! Dawni - I suspect your ds has the hangover from hell, no??? MJIM - suspect your ds probably doesn't lol!

I have the best news - just been to MW - the baby has turned! All by itself, the clever little thing! She thought so and got 2 others in to have a feel! We will have a scan in a couple of weeks anyway to make sure! Yey! I'm dead happy! - looks like my low key water birth in my lovely little local hospital is back on! (I thought something weird was going on last night - felt really agitated and restless and was sick - although I managed to get to the loo! )

willmouse - sorry you are spotting but don't give up hope!

HC - and what's on the menu today? muffins? bagels? ciabatta? some other bread product???

Is anyone else a bit concerned that Bellie hasn't been on? he would be out of hospital by now wouldn't she?

There's a lot of vomit on this thread!

Pleased that your baby has turned CE. Hope that the scan confirms it too so that you can look forward to the birth that you want.

Sorry that the spotting is continuing Willmouse but at least it's not true AF, so don't give up hope yet.

Hope your dh gets sorted out soon Dawni, sounds like he's in an awful lot of pain.

Dawni · 09/02/2009 20:16

Yay CE thats fab news, hope the scan is good x

Thanks LaDiDaDi its not been easy x

HC Hows the MS hun x

MJIM You must be pooped ?? x

Off for a shower, Whitechapel on after corrie, i really enjoyed it last week

D xx

pureeandpearls · 09/02/2009 20:22

Bloody hell, you're all about the vomit. You didn't tell me that when I joined

Nothing to report TBH- have caught hacking cough from babypearls, but we're both coping well- hope you are all OK.

HumphreysCorner · 09/02/2009 20:30

Crikey Dawni-when you said he was going out on the town I could see that coming. Was once thrown out of a taxi for throwing up. Thing is, I didn't even know I was being sick I was that blotto. Went to work the next day and was sick for most of it. Bleugh! Your poor DH, he is being so brave for you. Hope you work something out.

Willmouse-sorry to hear you have spotting. Hate that part, AF should just arrive if she is coming.

MJIM-Hope you have a better night.

ChocEclair-brilliant news about your baby turning.

After having a dreadful sicky start I am now having 10 mins of feeling OKish. Have terrible cramps though. If it isn't one thing it's another eh?

Anyway, am freezing so off to make a hot water bottle.

Big wave to all.

Evening all

Dawni lol at your DS 'decorating' the bathroom - and there was me thinking that those days would be well behind me by the time my boys get to 16 Sorry about your DH - it must be awful for him and you.

MJIM sympathies to you about DS too - I hope he recovers very soon!

CE yay for baby CE and you get a scan anyway so you can see him/her again!!

Am sure everything is ok with Bellie - she should definitely be out of hospital by now so hopefully it is just as MJIM says - her hands are full with her baby boy

All pretty much ok here. Josh's behaviour has got worse again (just when I thought we were turning a corner ) but he has got a bit of a stinking cold and we have noticed before that he tends to become 'naughty' when he is not feeling very well - so I am hoping it is just that. He hit Sam on the head this afternoon - hard enough to make Sam scream - but it was my fault as I had left them alone in the lounge whilst I MN did important tasks Bless Josh though - he doesn't know how to lie so confessed straight away
