mls So sorry to hear your news, I bet you feel you can't take much more, i wish there was something I could say or do to make you feel better but there isn't

barbie1 · 02/01/2010 16:09

Hello ladies...was so glad to finally get the computer and a quiet few minutes to wish you all a very happy new year and then i logged on to see more --shit== rubbish that poor mls has to go through

Tomorrow dh goes back to work and i think he has managed to talk his family into going out to the beach for the day so i promise i will be back on tomorrow to write a huge post.

Been thinking about you all constantly, speak soon love b xx

Neeko · 02/01/2010 22:24

Evening all.

MLS You've been so brave this week and I was so sure when you texted me the other day that this one was a keeper. I'm so sorry that you're having such a horrible time but I still believe that this is your year and I'm with you every step of the way.

4ever Hope you're wobbling a little less today. This time of year can easily send you from high to low without everything you've been through. Just remember every breath you take brings you a moment closer to that lo in your arms.

Jools well done on the gym front. Sending you a bucket and spade to help to further distract you in the sand.

Blue You sound so happy. I love it! So pleased that all is well with you.

Cupcake wow time is truly ticking on for you. Think you'd better start looking for your new pad soon.

Monkey hope you're well and feeling positive for a new start this year.

LBM I've really enjoyed your posts about everyone's reactions. Bet you're DD is loving being the one to break the news. Can't believe you're half way there already. All that head in the sand stuff seems to work!

Barbie Enjoy the peace and quiet tomorrow. Hope they're all looking after you.

Iggy not long now. we'll all be there with you.

Curly you sound really chilled. The holidays have clearly been good for you. When do you stop?

We came home last night to a broken boiler and a freezing house! It's a condenser boiler and the outflow for the steam had completely frozen. We'd resigned ourselves to an early night and dressing gowns to bed when my dad and his friend said they were coming to fix it! (That's my dad's line of work) Fortunately his friend had been chauffering family around all day so was the only non-pg person in the country who hadn't been drinking.Anyway, they rigged things up with the hose from an old hoover to by-pass the pipe so all the water from the boiler steam is now going into the utility room sink and we won't be able to do anything else until it thaws. So lovely to have Daddy to the rescue - my DH has a lot to live up to.

Also took the decorations down tonight so some sort of normality should return in the Neeko household tomorrow.

Hope everyone else is well.

barbie1 · 03/01/2010 08:22

Where to start???

mls i truely felt sick reading your last update, life can be so cruel, why does bad things always happen to the good people in life? I remember when my mum was told she had breast cancer i thought the very same thing...especially when you read the newspapers and watch the news and see that they are some truely wicked people out there who seem to get away with much less
I know its not the start to the new year that you had planned, however there are still 36o something days to turn this around so it does become your year...and for the record we are all here with you on every single one of those days.

The same applies for mermaid i really do hope that you are over the worst bit of the crash that we have all suffered...When the clocked struck 12pm on news years eve i prayed for all of us on this thread that the new year will bring us all happiness. Im not sure of your intentions now but i do hope that you continue on the road with us, although i totally understand if you dont. I have been thinking about you constantly....

4ever whoooo wobbly weeble, i have ordered you a pair of stablizers to help you through the month of Jan, how totally poop for you that you have so many dates, worrys and concerns to see in the new year with.
I hope by now your mum is on the mend and you have got your head around returning to work...at the very worst you will be there for a max of 15 or so weeks before your mat leave starts....
As we all know the run up to edd are always worse than the day. Just remember something lovely happened on your dads birthday so think of something equally as lovely to do on the 10th...prehapes graduate yourself into the big pants, your dad would be so pleased!

jools oh no not another one with a cold? bravo for getting to the gym though...the last time i went was to pick up dh from squash and i walked in carrying a mac donalds not the kind of work out that im used too...tbh im kind of looking forward to returning after the baby arrives, although its going to be strange to be able to see my feet again! Love your piccies on fb....padstow is lovely and the food at rick stiens looked to die for! iggy still has my hello kitty bucket to bury her head in so ill lend you my spade......

speaking of iggy i hope you are ok, its gone v quiet from you but im guessing you are keeping yourself busy before your scan. I have a very good feeling for you and beanie, pls come back and post as soon as you get the good news....

blue has it stopped snowing long enough to take babyblue out....im sat here watching the gardener tend the garden, the sun is shining and i cant imagen how cold it is back in the uk...im turning into a total expat brat! Although it has to be said the evenings are very cold now, about 15 degrees which when you have been used to 45 plus can feel as cold as the uk!

mm hoping you and the new addition are settling at home ok, love to the rest of the family too...i cant wait for an update of dd1 and what she made of the new lo.

buddha lol at you taking Ewan for 4 pub lunches already! I hope you are ok with the feeding situation now...loved the new pics by the way, too cute!

moon you sound really positive and as we all know that is half the battle won, loved your reasons not to be disapointed with the arrive of af....are you still staring at that gorgeous ring????

lbm i had tummy aches all through this pregnancy...so dont worry. Im so excited that you have your 20 week scan and are going to find out the sex. The whole name thing is really getting to me, i just cant make up my mind, now part of me wants to know if its a boy or girl so i can sort it out

cupcake when are you thinking of moving...we offically move in on the 15th, its only up the road but its still very stressful. Once dh family leaves im going to make a few trips back and forth while dh is at work, just taking a few bits and pieces so by the time the move date arrives we should only have one small van of furniture and the rest should all be there in its place or thats the plan anyway! Oh and i ehco the words of curly the time does go by a little faster once 20 weeks come and go...especially if you are going to be moving as well!

gg i cant believe you are next

and then its curly...are you both bouncing on your birthing balls to get the lo in position? I cant believe im third on the list...how the heck did that happen I was feeling fine being the 6th or seventh as i didnt need to think of the logistics of giving birth but now......best get massaging my perniuim!

neeko i took the tree down yesterday, its almost nice being back to normal...glad you managed to get the boiler fixed, by the sound of the weather reports you would of turned to ice by the morning if it wasnt done!

baking how was the party? I managed to last until 2am on a beach watching the very impressive fireworks from atlantis! Although staying up so late didnt agree with me as i woke the next day with the worst non hangover...felt like i had drunk a bottle of cheap vokda

monkey hello lovely! im with you in hoping that 2010 is a good un!

I finally have the house to myself...it sounds terrible but im wishing this week away so that dh family leave i have so much to do and i just cant do it with them here, also nesting instinct has kicked in big time, but its continual cleaning after the 7 of us so its making me tearful and mad when i finish and have to start again. The worst is i just cant leave it...

I have my 34 week check up on wednesday but apart from the there are no other plans, i kind of miss working!

Love to you all xxx

VJay · 03/01/2010 11:07

Oh mls I'm so sorry this happened to you again .

blue your post to 4ever made me well up it was so lovely

barbie can't believe you are 34 weeks already, not long now . Your inlaws will be gone soon enough then let the nesting begin

neeko our boiler did exactly the same and the hose is dripping into a bucket, it's been like that for days. There's been snow on the ground now for over 2 weeks now and I can't get out either. My sis rang last noght to say she had an inch of snow (in Cheshire) and she was so excited . I am soooo over the snow now

cupcake when are you moving?

Gotta go dh is back from the shop and wants a 'grill' up

OP posts:
mermaidspurse · 03/01/2010 11:54

sorry I've not been around for a few days. Been trying to forget that its time for everything to go back to normal and god only knows where school uniform is. 4ever I think this time of the year is the pits regardless so sad and traumatic anniversaries are bound to make you feel x10 worse.

mls Did I miss you coming on here with a bfp? I am so sorry if I did and I am even more sorry to read your post today.
No words but you know we understand its just plain bitter. email if you need to.x

curly thank you for that link on fibroids. I am trying not to be hacked off with the ultrasound lady who was supposedly meant to be checking for just such things a wee while ago. But maybe they grow like a magic forest.

iggy I will be thinking of you tomorrow so much brave lady Is it an evening scan again? Please let us all know.x

neeko glad you got rescued with the boiler. Also very glad that they are keeping an eye on you and yuk to tonic water on its own. I am sure that everything will be fine for the 25th.

barbie thank you for your thoughts. You have done well to survive the inlaws.
Don't go lifting too heavy stuff and rushing around moving silly things young lady. 34 weeks omg where has that gone?? Are you going to find out the flavour at your check up this week?

blue lovely to hear that all is well and bonny in the blue household and that you have gold top well done.

4ever hope you are enjoying sunday. lbm bit of advice with bite chunks at a time is such a good one. Horrible colds always leave you feeling terrible, everythings grey need I go on?
My edd for my No1 would have been 21st Jan 06. It has always felt the hardest.

I thought of villagemum today all 3 of us lost los within a few day of each other last January. I so hope that she is happy.

You on the other hand must be getting tubby by now which is just one the best things to be happening in 2010

jools fingers crossed for you, don't go too mad at the gym and hope the cvold is going again.xx

better go vjays mention of a grill has made me want a big fry up

bluesatinsash · 03/01/2010 11:58

Oh MLS - so to read your post. Try and take comfort in the fact you can get pg v. easily and your bloods are all fine. Early hpts are a double edged sword as in the 'old days' we would wait until AF was late but can now test up to a week before she'd due which just adds another potential heartache with CPs.. How are you today?

Neeko glad the boiler is working - go neekodad! We took our tree down on 30th as it was shedding and added to all DS1's toys we had no visible carpet in the living room! DH is off to IKEA tomorrow for more toy storage for the family/toy room (what was our dining room) so although DS1 has run of downstairs during the day we can reclaim living room at night as his Millenium Falcom et al are banished to toy room.

Barbie - 34 weeks - . Feb will be here before we know it. I can imagine how it feels to be hosting DH's family - lovely to have them but lack of personal space and 'me' time would annoy me too! Hope move goes well and don't you lift anything heavy OK?

Mermaid - thinking about you lots and lots xx

Vjay - is a grill up the same as a fat man fry up ? You've been in Scotland too long .

MM - hope you're home now and getting to know Nieve, bet you can't stop looking at her .

We're venturing out today, off to retail park where the snows not too bad. Really excited about using pram and showing Benjamin off . He slept from midnight to 5am this morning - thought my left boob was going to explode! He did cluster feed all evening and was in bed with me so think that contributed to his long lie. I had to do a double take when I looked at clock and it was 5am not 3am! Of course I'm making a rod for my own back having him in beside me and would NEVER have done that with DS1 as was totally Gina Ford/Baby Whisperer routine/avoiding bad habits but Ben just won't settle at night and we had four hours of settling him from 10pm to 2am Friday. I just looked at him last night and said 'come on in beside Mummy' and he fell asleep immediately. Remind me of this when he is three and still cuddling in beside me .

Ah well, ironing beckons, chores never end do they

Hope everyone enjoys what's left of the hols x

cupcakefairy · 03/01/2010 14:24

Hi girls just a quick post from me...

MLS was so so to read your post. What a crappy start to the year. I don't even have any chocolate left to offer you but here's a hairstroke... you really don't deserve this

To everyone who asked we'll be moving during Jan or Feb I hope! DH and I both put it off til 'after Christmas' so I guess that's now!
Basically we rent a one-bed flat and were buying a house this time last year but lost loads of money when it fell through cos of the stupid recession so had our fingers stung a bit there and have been wary of trying again. Now for obvious reasons we have to move, but will probably just rent a slightly bigger house and keep saving for our one-day deposit. Half dreading it all, half excited to finally have more space. Yesterday we went to John Lewis and I got a teensy bit excited by nursery sets and buggies so I'm itching to have some space for the baby!
(For those who have pram-lust, we're thinking of the iCandy Cherry..looks lovely. )

iggypiggy · 03/01/2010 14:45

Hello all - many apologies for radio silence and Happy New Year to all of you.

I have been in Dorset in a village with no mobile signal at all - which was a good thing I think!

I have also been keeping my head firmly in the sand - thanks to barbie's hello kitty bucket and with mermaid's shell decorations. It has been easier to ignore everything than to stress, if am honest...

mm congratulations!! So exciting to have another cyber neice!

mermaid have been thinking about you loads - I hope you are throwing yourself into the real world and looking after yourself. xxx

MLS so sorry to read of your rubbish start to the year - also please look after yourself xxx

moon congratulations on the engagement!! I absolutely loved planning my wedding! Also will be hoping sod's law means you get your BFP very soon.

jools hope you ok?

4ever sorry that Jan is such a hard month for you - but this Jan it will be different - 2010 is your year!

cupcake we also planning on moving house - also got new puppy booked (due to be born any day - collect in March) - all planned ages ago... but am not changing any plans or even thinking about changing them until after the scan.. but will def be looking to buy a new house whatever.

lbm were the parents shocked in general or shocked that you are due so soon?!

Neeko your retro day sounds excellent - I love beaches!

Hi to all of the new mummies and to everyone else - am back to work tomorrow and will be able to lurk post more!

Oh yes - I have my scan tomorrow at 6pm (has to be evening so DH can make it too) - am in denial, terrified etc. I stopped feeling unwell ages ago and so have obviously wondered about how good a sign that is... but then again - I've had no bleeding and I still have some other 'symptoms' but is all such a worry - I can't get my hopes up.... but really really hoping that my body isn't letting me down and that it would let me know if something was wrong... so I'll probably be a wreck tomorrow...

BlueMoon1981 · 03/01/2010 14:48

oh mls i am so for you too, can't say anything that hasn't already been said, but have a huge big squeezy hug from me.

mermaid its lovely to see you, squeezy hug for you too, you are so brave.

barbie loving the mega post, well done! and yes i am still gazing at my ring df keeps saying to me is it ok?! also to add to my not being pg list is that i can eat all the brie in the fridge...

more snow, i'm bored of it now too. its very pretty but i hate having to drive to work in it, and having to scrape all the ice and snow off before i can even get in. its been very cold too. poor dogs haven't been walked in a good week or so due to the slippy roads and pavements, just glad we have a garden for them even if it is small.

feeling quite happy and contented at the minute (not just due to the ring no matter how gorgeous it is!), i feel i've come a long way in a short space of time, the last few months have been horrendous and i thought i was losing the plot. thank you to every single one of you for keeping me sane and letting me say what i needed to, and for supporting me through some dark days when i couldn't see the light. i have hope now, and i never thought i'd say that. i am very hopeful that we will have our little one some day still brings tears to my eyes to say that, because i can't forget the two we lost, but i have made that step forward and with your continued help i will keep moving forward. group hug? xxxxx

VJay · 03/01/2010 16:27

Hi mermaid lovely to 'see' you, I've been thinking of vm too, and want to wish her a happy new year, just incase she ever pops on to lurk

blue yes my grill up is my alternative to a fry up

moon you sound so so happy, long may it continue for you hun

iggy will be thinking of you tomorrow at your scan

Been shopping and have bought myself a lovely coat from debenhams, it's a size bigger than it should be , but I can wear lots of jumpers under it next year

OP posts:
Neeko · 03/01/2010 19:50

Having a quick lurk before a bath but wanted to jump in to join Moon's group hug. So pleased to hear you've found peace.

Vjay There's no should be size after a baby. 9 months on 36 9 months off and all that. Such high tech boilers we have too.

Mermaid glad to hear from you. Hope you've found the uniform and are easing back into RL.

Iggy I'll be thinking of you at 6pm tomorrow.

Cupcake No chocolate left? Sending you a truckload of ours.

Barbie Hope a day to yourself has helped.

Blue Hope Ben was suitably ooohed and aahed over. I'm so over the snow and cold too.

DH back to work tomorrow so RL taking over again. Boo!Hiss!

Off for bath now. Take care all and especial big hugs for MLS and Mermaid - two special ladies who deserve much better. x

Joolsiam · 03/01/2010 20:09

Lovely to hear you sounding so much happier Moon

Mermaid - glad you popped in - I was worried about you ... Hope the school run goes OK tomorrow and you've unearthed all that is necessary

Iggy - will be thinking of you tomorrow - everything tightly crossed.

Barbie - can you send us some of that sun ?? It is freezing here No snow in the South East, but I think it is on its way in time for the great return to work / school tomorrow. I've been off for 2 weeks and have got used to being a lady of leisure - don't want it to end

Blue - hope your outing with baby Ben went OK he sounds like a little angel - letting you sleep till 5am

Hello to Vjay, LBM, Neeko, Cupcake, Monkey, MM and baby MM ...

Remember Scorpio, who was on here a while ago and we got BFP's around the same time back March ? Well, I think she is now called Scorps and I spotted some threads on active convo's - sounds like she had a lovely little girl but has ended up back in hospital

If you are lurking, I hope things are getting better x x x

As for me - - AF may or may not arrive on Thursday ....

littlebellsmum · 03/01/2010 20:18

Ah, normality is returning - lots of posts!

I'll try and do a long post whilst DH is reading a long bedtime story to the DC's!

MLS Bugger, Bugger, Bugger. So sorry this is happening again. But 2010 will be your year- lets be honest, it's got to be better than 2009

Vjay Shopping - very impressive. Was DH in charge of the DC's? I'm tempetd to go to the shops tomorrow but I'm not sure I can face it as I'd need to take the DC's ( last day before school)

General comment to all those in the north - snow? You still have it ours went on Christmas day, we haven't managed any snow men or sledging and so am feeling that we've missed out!

moon - it's lovely to hear such a happymoon . What a lovely df to keep asking if the ring is ok!

iggy good to hear from you and yes, as I said the sand is good. The only problem is when you do finally take your head out, pregnancy is a scary place!! I'm sure tomorrow will be fine - with one of my pregnancies I had no sickness at all and have a healthy 4 yr old as a result. Looking forward to hearing from you tomorrow.
as for what shocked my parents the most - answer has to be both. My mum is not looking forward to contacting her BF as she thinks it suggests that she doesn't know her own daughter! We've never told them early, even with DD, I think it was about 16 weeks ( saved it for a 60th birthday present for mum!)

cupcake I hadn't seen that buggy before - it looks good! And yes, I'm also terrified about my scan later the the week. I'm not feeling many movements I don't think but maybe I'm just thick skinned!

blue I wouldn't worry about having ben in with you whilst he's so small - for the first 3 or 4 weeks, we had our DS in with us most nights as it was the only way to get any sleep. From then, he has always slept in the cot with no problems

good to hear from you mermaid - snap on the uniform. Hope the nasty physical stuff has finished for you by now.

barbie I loved your long post! I have lots of symypathy with you having people staying for so long, no matter how nice they are. My MIL was with us for a week and that was enough ( and we do get on fine). I hope that they are helping around the house - you with that lovely bump and all. I also can't believe you are at 34 weeks - time has just flown!

LovelyNeekothenotsocoldanymore What a lovely dad! I have the opposite situation -useful DH and useless ( but lovely) dad! And yes DD and DS are loving telling everyone about the baby but they seem to have forgotten recently and we need to remind them! Also, no one believes them!! They told some good friends of ours at lunch yesterday which was very funny - these are antenatal friends from DD and they have 2 dcs like us. The DH really wants more but my friend has hideous pregnancies and just can't face another one. Needless to say - he was very excited and jealous and she wanted to kill me!! However, she is now searching her garage for all the baby equipment she can find!!

monkeysbum Good to hear you had a good christmas - if DS did, you must have done!

HappyJools I'm sure there is plenty of sand to go round. I've got a damp sand pit full of it - very nice and warm and highly recomended!

4ever I can imagine that that doppler must seem like a lifeline. I am a teensy bit jealous - untill I start getting big kicks, I'm not going to believe it's real!

curly I only got away with not drinking for three reasons - firstly party rather than dinner and so I kept losing drinks, secondly no one expected me to be pregnant and finally bf was too tied up with cooking to notice my lack of drinking! Not long now untill we meet curlygirl!

budha Good to hear our cyber nephew is filling out nicely but the frequent feeds must be hard work

BakingQueen Happy new year to you too - you also sound in a good place for 2010.

And , whilst the story was long, it wasn't that long and so, I need to go and make room in cupboards for christmas presents!

So, hello to all those I've missed esp gracie and MrsKate who are probably lurking whilst enjoying all that Christmas choclate!!

monkeybumsmum · 03/01/2010 20:21

Just popping in quickly whilst getting stuff sorted - ds is having grommets put in tomorrow morning, so am trying to keep occupied and not stress out too much. I know it's a routine procedure but am terrified something will go wrong.

Anyway, Blue hope you had a lovely time taking little Ben out, bet he looked gorgeous in his pram, you must've been so proud! That's amazing he slept so long - what a good start I brought ds in the bed with me at some point through the night for about the first six months, and he has always been a great sleeper and there were no probs getting him to sleep on his own. Just enjoy snuggling up to Ben whilst he's still too small to boot you out the bed

mermaid You're doing so well, you really are. It's horrible having to get on with RL after what you've been through. Am sending you the tightest squeeze xxx

Iggy Huge amounts of luck with the scan tomorrow, although I hope you won't need it! You're bound to be worrying about symptoms or lack of, but I bet your little one is tucked safely away in there.

Neeko You are one lucky lady to have such a fab dad That's a nightmare to come home to a broken boiler! Hope you're having a nice bath!

I don't seem to have the time to manage to write to everyone but I am thinking of you all! I have to go and pack a hospital bag now, haven't a clue what to take... If I'm not on for a few days it's because I have a rather clingy ds, take care x

anniebigpants · 03/01/2010 22:34

Happy New Year ladies, thanks for the texts recieved on NYE.

MLS-Im gutted for you that this has happened again, sending you lots of love.

Mermaid-Thinking of you, you are doing really well after all you have been through, sending love and hairstrokes.

Iggy-Thinking of you for your scan tomorrow, though im sure all will be just great.

MM-Congrats on the birth of Nieve, lovely name, hope you recovering well.

Blue-Hope the lovely Ben is well, i must admit i do take Ellis in bed with me occasionally, and i hardly ever put him down during the day , im more precious with Ellis than i ever was with Oliver and he was my PFB. Good to see you on the post natal thread im on too!

Jools-Keeping fingers tightly crossed for you.

Love to everyone else, im having some precious 'mummytime' now that everyone is fast asleep. Im hoping Ellis suprises me again by doing a 5 hour stint between feeds like he did last night.
Got Ellis weighed last week and he is 11lb excactly now,hes got lovely chubby cheeks,and he smiles at me a lot now, i could just melt. Got my 6 week postnatal check on Wednesday, those 6 weeks have flew by. My C section scar is still sore and is weeping, ive had swabs taken to check for infection but they came back clear, that was over 2 weeks ago, oh well.
Will hope to get on more now festivities are over,DS! should be back at nursery tomorrow but we have so much snow here and side roads are trecherous, so am keeping him off nursery tomorrow as dont feel safe driving esp with CS scar playing up.

iggypiggy · 04/01/2010 11:09

Thanks for the thoughts girls - v. much appreciated. xx

monkey hope your DS's op goes well - must be such a worry - am bad enough when my dog had to stay at the vets - cannot immagine how I would be with a child going to hosp!

lbm denial is actually quite nice - I can imagine leaving there will be scary for me...

annie can't believe he is 6 weeks already! you sound v. happy.

mm if you do happen to pop on here - am v. much liking the name Nieve - how do you pronounce it though? Cos I googled and it comes up with different ways - when I first saw it I assumed it was a differnt spelling of Niamh, but seems am wrong on that!

MummyLovesSadie · 04/01/2010 11:14

Just a quick one from me for now. I'm bouncing back, B-O-I-I-N-G, just like I always do. Af arrived today so I can get bd'ing again in a week. Thanks for all of your good wishes.

I'll post properly later.

CurlyBigPants · 04/01/2010 11:32

iggy thinking of you today. Hope I haven't missed you before you go. Here's my hand xxx

Mls I'm so sorry to hear your news but lovely to hear that you are bouncing back This year it is going to happen - and soon xxx

lots of love to everyone. I'll catch up properly at lunchtime hopefully

Joolsiam · 04/01/2010 11:38

Great to hear you so positive MLS

I must admit, I found 6 week mc far far easier to deal with than the 12 week one - not so many hormones floating around ...

Wishing you lots of luck for this cycle

Still got everything crossed for you Iggy

iggypiggy · 04/01/2010 11:53

curly thanks lovely - hope you ok? You feeling any better?

jools thank you too, you still sound v. good - hope you feel it. x

mls so pleased AF arrived you sound v. positive too. have everything croseed for you for this cycle xx

VJay · 04/01/2010 12:03

BOIING BOIING BOIING hello bouncy mls that's the spirit , good for you

monkey hope ds is alright bless him, not sure what gromets are but they go in his ears don't they?

iggy good luck for your scan today

blue I have Ajay in with me sometimes, it's nice and snuggley plus I get some sleep. Generally he's not a bad sleeper but there is the odd night when he's fractious due to teething (i think ).

mm hello

lbm dh came with me shopping and pushed ds2 in the buggy for me, ds1 was playing round at my neighbours, so we had a nice couple of hours in Inverness, very cold though

jools can you hear me with your head in the sand ? I think it's a good place to be, it's worked for iggy and lbm

just had to post a load of cards and presents to all those inconsiderate people born in January

OP posts:
iggypiggy · 04/01/2010 12:06

vjay thank you too! You sound v. cheery today.

barbie1 · 04/01/2010 12:09

Hi girls..well it is freezing cold and frosty here in Wales and I am contemplating crawling under my desk where there is a heater to curl up for the rest of the day
I've had a 'well who ate too many mince pies!' comment this morning too! Tummy is getting scarily big.

Iggy good to hear from you again and glad you had a lovely phone-free getwaway will be thinking of you at 6 and please try not to worry about lack of symptoms. I barely felt sick or anything before 12wk scan and just literally could not believe there was a baby inside me until I saw it on that screen. I'm sure everything will be fine.
I'm glad we're not the only crazy ones who will be moving before baby too

Moon I was so smiley reading your post; that is so so ace that you're finding some peace and beginning to believe you will have your little one...yipppeeeeee

monkey really hope your ds is ok today and more to the point, that you are!!

mermaid hope getting back into routine is ok today and takes your mind off things.

Neeko I know! I was shocked to run out of chocolate too but turns out dh and I scoffed more than we realised! We still have lots of other goodies though

Jools thanks for letting us know about scorpio I had been wondering about her as her edd was around the same time as blue's...hope she's ok. Am singing the stay away af song for you!

MLS boo hiss to af but glad you are onwards and upwards as always, what an inspirational lady you are.

Hi Curly and everyone else, hope you are managing to keep warm!
