Hi MrsKate That made me feel better - sorry! Did you do much damage? Let's put it all down to pregnancy brain!!

MrsKate · 23/10/2009 20:25

yeah i told then that not much just a scratch . my dad is going to pay the damage cost bless him i went into panic mode overreacted as usual

Neeko · 23/10/2009 20:29

Speaking of overreaction. I phoned my DH to tell him and was sobbing down the phone Bloody hormones
Off for a bath and an early night. Take care x

cupcakefairy · 24/10/2009 12:46

Morning... aw Neeko bless you with the hard day yesterday I love hearing your gran's wisdom, she must have been a special lady.
And to make you feel better- I took the car to work last Monday and then it wasn't used til dh took it out Tuesday night...and discovered I hadn't locked it Monday evening ...our street is quite bad for car crime too so thank goodness it was ok definitely pregnancy brain!!

I am a bit worried at the amount I am crying at the mo...worried about depression but my BF tells me it's all reactionary (she has a fancy psychology degree) to our situation so prob not depression... I just can't tell how much of it is pg-related.. have you other girls noticed much more tearfulness or is it just me...?

Enjoy your weekends all

littlebellsmum · 24/10/2009 18:36

Hello everyone
Quick post from me ( when are they ever more than quick!) - suffering a bit from excessive tiredness and all day quesiness . Oh and a stupidly busy life!

We are off on holiday tomorrow for a week - hurrah! A week in Valencia, hopefully some sun, the beach and so of the fab museums they have. Oh, yes and hopefully more sleep!

Sorry to hear about the car crashes, minor as they were. And yes, cupcake I am with you on the excess crying - I was in tears over 60 minute make over the other day, ffs!

Hope the scans go well for my two medium pant buddies next week and that the booking in was good today, 4ever. I think I'm just over 9 weeks now , which means the 10+ time that I lost the last LO will hit just when we get back from holiday.....

Hope everyones doing well

barbie1 · 25/10/2009 09:50

helllllloooooo!

Gosh how i miss you all when i cant type anything to you, im at work now so apoligises for spelling, grammer and quickness of post

Firstly i just wanted to say neeko and cupcake well done in my absence doing something that i would do...i have left my house, car etc unlocked so many times...and this week dh crashed into the back of another car i of course got the blame due to not refuelling it for him for when he returned from europe he was pulling out of the petrol station and the car in front stop quicky and smack! Least he laughed about it and there was no damage to either car so they didnt call the police (which is law here for every accident!)

cupcake re the crying...yes yes yes, all the time and it really doesnt get any better. I have had a wobble this morning due to a tiny non exsitant bit of bloody discharge and tummy pains. Im scared of going into early labour now....oh the fear never ever ends for us does it

lbm have a fantastic holiday, hopefully you will be coming home to good news and a lovely little bean on the scan.

jools im here too if you need anything... for you at the dates that are looming, when are you off to the good old westcountry again, i have forgotten

annie i see you are making the most of your last few weeks, gosh you mat leave seems to of come around quick

blue im with you with the evening trips to the bathroom...it can be very dangerous when your choc lab insists on sleeping next to your side of the bed...ive nearly killed him by standing on him many times

weeble i love you and your dh..you sound so loved up and able to get through anything bless....Im glad you have another month off to take it easy...your doing great so far and long may it continue!

mermaid are you a little down? i didnt pick up on it but im concerned now that neeko has mentioned it...i really do hope you are ok..

Oh dear the md is on the phone, i had better go, i will catch up with the rest of you asap

Big hugs xx

MrsKate · 25/10/2009 16:50

hi girls

just come back from work been ordered to rest . a drunken patient fell onto me onto my abdomen i had stabbing pain since then . ive been for scan and boris was sucking thumb and waving to tell me it was ok

been a stressful day to say the least xxxxx

4everhopeful · 25/10/2009 18:03

Oh Mrskate what a worry , you rest up - reassuring to see liitle Boris again though & glad all is well!

Barbie nice to see you girl... xx Youre right I daresay the worry never will stop till little ones are in our arms!

Cupcake with you & LBM on the crying too! I was also in tears at no doubt the same 60 min makeover, as well as x factor, adverts, enders, anything really!

Big hug to Neeko after your down day honey... Love u lots xx Felt so bad I managed a big post the other day & didnt say hi to you or Curly Big hug for both you lovely ladies, as well as the gorgous Mermaid & Jools too xxxx

Sorry, a quickie, lovely DDDDDDH cooking, Im a big wobbly weeble pre scan jitters (severe understatement) for tomorrow, its 11.40am so as usual please cross your bits hum pray etc, Im sure it all helps! One good thing is that - 'hello from dh, 4ever has to come and eat her dinner now big wave to you all and keep on keeping on and upwards' - Ahhhh bless DH just hijacked the PC to do that, he is so lovley!!! Was gonna say had first ever ante natal & is great to actually have my own maternity notes & a bounty pack! Its a first so hope it keeps rolling like that! anyway - as you see I was just summoned

Love u all lots xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

cupcakefairy · 25/10/2009 18:11

Hi 4ever and Mr4ever will def be thinking of you and praying for you tomorrow I guess you feel pretty jittery as you're coming up to 9 weeks but remember, this 4everbean is a FIGHTER! here's my hand to hold.

LBM have a lush holiday! You deserve it

MrsKate glad all is ok with Boris. By the way I'd love it if you have a girl & one day have to explain to her she was called Boris in utero

Thanks for the reassurance re: crying girls.. managed to not cry yesterday or today, yippee (I don't think a slight almost-wobble while reading The Host by Stephenie Meyer counts how embarrassing!)

Right, where is everyone, weekends are too quiet on here!

BuddhaBellyBigPants · 25/10/2009 19:43

4ever Thinking of you both x

Neeko · 25/10/2009 20:01

Hi all.
4ever Great news that you now have a Bounty pack -happy reading Bet your lovely DH reads it too. Mine just asks me to summarise. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow.

MrsKate Hope you're ok. What a weekend you're having! Give Boris a pat and put your feet up.

Cupcake I have personally boosted Kleenex's shares by 5% this year I've cried so much. Warning: Do NOT watch Marley and Me. Had me a sobbing wreck last night. Don't tell my DH but when he has been away with work I have once left the back door unlocked all night and another time not only left the car unlocked but left my door ajar! Think it's just female hormones but he'd be v annoyed if he knew.

Barbie Nice to hear that a man can have a bump too. Hope you're well and have stopped stressing about early labour.

LBM Belated happy holiday. Wow - 9 weeks. You're coping really well. Remember here's the place if you need a wobble.

Buddha Hope you're well and RL is less stressy.

No news yet from the woman I ran into but she works for the same council so I'm expecting an email tomorrow.
We took DD out for dinner last night and she threw up on the way out the restaurant Quick thinking DH ran outside with her and by the time I notified the staff and got outside she'd thrown up another twice and both of them were covered from head to foot - eew! She was such a wee soul and kept saying sorry to her daddy. She wasn't a sicky baby and that's probably only about the 5th time she's ever been sick so it was a bt of a shock. Not eating much today but not bringing it back up either

The new couch is in the toyroom because we got the carpet fitted yesterday. There's nothing else in there as we're still waiting on the rest of the furniture but I'm quite enjoying sitting in an empty room!

This is turning into an epic post and all about me - sorry!

Hope everyone else is well.

bluesatinsash · 25/10/2009 20:06

Evening ladies,

We've had relatives staying all weekend - lovely to have them but lovely to have the house back too (Monica moment)

4ever - so lovely to read you getting your notes filled in and bounty pack handed over . Will be continuing to hold your hand tomorrow and 'hey!' to your DDDH, hope your dinner was tasty and met with 4everbean approval

barbie - sorry you had a wobble this morning but totally understandable. Aches and pains are with us the whole pg but give your Doc a phone for some reassurance. I was/am also paranoid of going into early labour...

MrsKate - at being landed on but great you saw Boris again . BTW I still suck my thumb at the grand old age of 38 .

Neeko lovely - hope the melancholy has lifted. Your Gran sounded like one special lady . Sorry to hear about your car prang too...

cupcake I cried throughout the early weeks too - combination of fear/hormones/stress the whole nine yards. Have you got your 12-week scan date yet?

LBM - have a lovely holiday!

I love the clocks going back, its all dark and cosy up here

Love to everyone else xx

bluesatinsash · 25/10/2009 20:08

Sorry Neeko - x-post! Your poor DD, wee lamb. My DS is the same, only thrown up @ 5 times too so its a shock all round when it happens...

Enjoy stroking your new carpet!

Neeko · 25/10/2009 20:18

Hi Blue. That's exactly how I feel when visitors go too !I love the clocks going back too. Plan an early night tonight so I can save up my extra hour for the dreaded Monday morning!

CurlyBigPants · 25/10/2009 20:31

Hello everyone just a quick one from me to wish 4ever and DH a wonderful scan tomorrow. Work is crazy at the moment so pls text if you get a chance. I'll be holding your hand all the while xxx

cupcake don't worry about crying. I choked up the other day thinking of dh holding our lo for the first time

neeko hope your sweet dd is feeling better.

phew for your little bean mrskate

Sorry for the lack of personal posts. Lots of love and big hugs to everyone else and big waves to my 5monther buddies gracie and barbie, our soon to be mums and our already mums. Special hugs though to jools moon mls iggy baking and the lovely mermaid who I'm hoping is doing okay.

cupcakefairy · 25/10/2009 21:31

Aww Neeko bless your poor dd! Hope she's ok now. I have watched Marley & Me so no worries there...but a warning back at ya, if the film made you cry DON'T read the book! Massive weepiness! Very funny too though
Hope you get to enjoy your lovely new carpet and sofa together soon!

Curly that nearly just choked me up too! I become a slight wreck if I think of anything to do with my dh being a daddy...

Hi blue my 12-week scan is Friday, 5 more sleeps! But I'll actually only be 11+2 so not sure my worries will totally ease even if it is good news can only wait and see.

barbie1 · 26/10/2009 04:25

Just coming on to wish 4ever and her ddddddddh good luck for later, not that you will need it of course cos its all going to be ok! it will be 3.30 my time so by the time i race get home at 4.30 i will be able to get an update.

cupcake 4 more sleeps and counting....i wish this week would go faster for you and you will be able to ever so slightly relax after your first scan...

kate OMG hope boris is giving you little reassuring flutters, i cant believe how dangerous it is to work in a hospital during pregnancy, take it easy girl...and please say hi to gg i miss her

neeko your poor dd....the dog was sick again last night i think our guests might of over fed him a little at the bbq we had. The thing is he sleeps in our bedroom as its the coolest room in the house at night and i woke up knowing he wasnt going to be well, managed to get him down stairs and by the door before he was sick (thankfully not in our bedroom!) cleaned it all up and went back to bed, where dh said 'its good practice for you' he also said i didnt hear anything....(even though he was at his side of the bed) Really doesnt look good for the night feeds he insist on wanting to do!

curly i get emotional thinking of dh holding the baby, feeding etc and for some reason even more so when i think of my dad coming over with my mum and sister, something about him with a newborn sets me off....

blue and buddha thanks for not laughing at my wobble and giving me a slap around the face good reason to be getting pains etc....you girlies are the best!

im at you all with the clocks, the dark nice, the nice cold, crisp mornings.....the wooly tights and boots combo's...

curly i so wanna say im 6 months.....24 weeks on thursday and technically 6 months but dh argues with me non stop about this so it feels like time is going backwards and ive been 5 months forever! i guess its easier sticking with weeks.....

A massive hello and hugs to all the other lovely ladies on here...i should be getting ready for work ..

VJay · 26/10/2009 09:21

Goodmorning, it is lovely and dark and cosy up here as blue says. I just want to stay under the duvet all morning, but my ds's have other ideas, so does my washing and ironing pile!

4ever wishing you a happy scan today, and a big wave to your dh too, he made me laugh hijaking the computer

barbie I felt like 5 months lasted forever too, as technically 26 weeks is 6 months. I feel like your pg is flying by, all of them are infact, though I know it doesn't feel like it at the time.

Big waves to everyone

mermaidspurse · 26/10/2009 10:38

flying in /out 4ever good luck with the scan.

kate glad boris is ok and sorry about the car

ditto neeko pita insurance companies etc.

cupcake just go with the tears its all a girl can do.xx

barbie well girl you will be fine if you can manage freddie sick in the midddle of the night then it will be plain sailing with everything else I hate to see that you have had another panicm, but glad you seem ok.x

There was a really good article in the woman section of the Observer yesterday about fertility. This amazing sounding chinese dr who mixes chinese medicine with western and is accepted and lauded by fertility experts here for her results. I guess the article should be on line?
Very good reading for those of us who feel like hope is slim at times. Dr Zhai, zhaiclinic.com

love to all its half term here so I am sorta here.xx

barbie1 · 26/10/2009 13:22

still no news????

mermaidspurse · 26/10/2009 13:40

bugger I have looked everywhere for my bloody mobile and I can't find it

I have now bribed ds to find it so it amy turn up under sofa or something.

iggypiggy · 26/10/2009 13:51

Hope scan ok 4ever xx

Just popping back briefly - not many of us comando/ small pant people aorund on this thread any more

Joolsiam · 26/10/2009 14:38

I'm still around Iggy - just don't have a lot to say for myself these days.

Lurking for news of 4Ever and trying to think positive - the suspense is killing me

Kate - hope Boris is making his presence felt

Barbie - am off to Cornwall on Nov 6th - come back on the 9th (my bday). Reconfirmed my booking at Stein's restaurant at the weekend and trying to get excited, but the dates are too significant and I'm struggling to rise above it -

Nov 6th and 7th last year - had the most horrendous headache. I saw the most beautiful rainbow out over the sea - my baby climbing up to the stars. Nov 8th - saw first spot of red blood. Nov 9th - brown blood and feeling of dread as boobs deflated. Nov 10th - on train home from St Ives - ridiculously thirsty and lots of discharge - in hindsight, the "plug" I think. Nov 11th - blood first thing and cramps, sudden gush (waters breaking ?) at 11.30, then a bloodbath and hideous A&E experience I am trying and failing to forget - lasted 36 hours till the pain peaked and I finally understood what it meant to feel the urge to push

Sorry - am just hoping I guess that when I get past these dates, I can return to normality ...

mermaidspurse · 26/10/2009 14:52

jools such a traumatic and heart rending time. Awful too that it is tied into your birthday. I hope that struggling through these dates brings a bit of peace although I am not sure what normality is ...
Rick Steins should be lovely though, I say this as a person who is allergic to fish and has only sampled the chips which were lovely.
He is reputedly looking to come and takeoveropen a shop in Falmouth too so that won't help my waistline
iggy hello breezy lady
I am hoping that bu the time I have posted this that 4ever will have popped up.x

mermaidspurse · 26/10/2009 15:17

phew, found phone under cat and washing and 4ever is fine but was all a little stressful as the poor thing wasn't seen until 1 due to messed up appointments. But horrah for 4ever bean and dddddddh
