MLS nearly forgot you - hope that everything is well tomorrow. Fingers, toes and everything is crossed....

bluesatinsash · 23/02/2010 19:44

Quicky from me just to say SOOOO happy for you 4ever and 4evergirl all present and correct and growing just grand . Hope your on couch waiting for 'enders as I type .

Neeko - big hug for you honey. The cruelest thing about MMC is the looking back on the days/weeks that you thought you were carrying your lo and they were already gone . Well done for all that swimming

MLS - still squeezing hand for tomorrow, know you will be a nervous wreck tonight but we're all here thinking about you and willing a sticky bean xxx

LBM - great to hear you had a fab time in Edinburger and great tips re: labour it is indeed about having a great baby not so much a great labour

Benjamin has his first jags this morning, wee lamb, Was very stoic but petted lip was out pronto followed by scare the pigeon screams. My darling boy!!

DS1 out of bath demanding I dress him, better shoot later dudes x

Oh Gawd, Eastenders..... bawling my eyes out now.

4ever yippee for your scan. I hope you can relax & enjoy the rest of your pregnancy a bit more now.

Blue give Benjamin a kiss from me. Breaks your heart when the cow of a nurse is sticking a needle in your poor little darling child!

LBM I take it that it wasn't an nct antenatal class you went to? They are all a bit holier than thou about pain relief. Totally agree with you about the control thing. With dd's labour I felt totally out of control & that is such a scary feeling, on top of that there's the pain of labour & it doesn't add up to a very pleasant birthing experience.

Neeko how are you doing now? I hope you found the swimming cathartic & you will wake up tomorrow in a slightly sunnier place. Did you clean like a demon again today?

I'm looking forward to One Born Every Minute tonight, will probably end up bawling my eyes out again. I've been feeling extremely sick all day, that's a good sign isn't it..........?

BlueMoon1981 · 23/02/2010 20:16

for 4ever so happy the scan went well

fingers, toes, legs, arms, feet and everything else crossed for mls tomorrow

curly lovely to see you checking up on us, you sound so very happy its making me its me on the 2ww, not sure about any other small panters, im on cd 28 today and about my cramps and funny taste in my mouth, its all my head right...

BlueMoon1981 · 23/02/2010 20:45

mls i can't, i'm too scared, but remember i sometimes have a 30/32 day cycle, so i don't want to be disappointed. i need a emoticon. i forgot to mention my backache too...

MummyLovesSadie · 23/02/2010 20:50

Lower back ache?

BlueMoon1981 · 23/02/2010 21:01

yes almost in my bum have had it for a week but it usually signifies af is coming

MummyLovesSadie · 23/02/2010 21:06

Eeek, if I still lived in Yorkshire I'd drive round to yours with my magic brown jiffy-bag!

Now watching channel 4 & crying again.

MummyLovesSadie · 24/02/2010 08:05

Am now crapping myself. Can somebody tell me that's it's going to be all ok please.

VJay · 24/02/2010 09:34

mls how many weeks are you now and what time is your scan?

anniebigpants · 24/02/2010 09:38

Thinking of you today for your scan MLS-ive got a gut feeling everything going to be fine,sending positive vibes and big hugs.
Back later lovelies.

MummyLovesSadie · 24/02/2010 09:47

Thanks Annie & Vjay, I'm 7+2, scan is 2.30.

VJay · 24/02/2010 09:52

mls my fingers are firmly crossed for you, I really think this is your time this time, stay positive .
I cried at 'enders too last night, it was very emotional wasn't it! but very good too. I tried to hide my tears from DH cos he laughs at me, but he spotted them when he spoke to me, and I answered in a wobbly voice

MummyLovesSadie · 24/02/2010 09:58

Vjay that's just like me, I couldn't ever cry openly about a tv program in front of dh, I'd never hear the last of it! !

VJay · 24/02/2010 10:00

I know! normally I dig my finger nails into my palm to stop me crying, but last night I was eating a curry so couldn't. I did try to blame on the curry but it was only a korma

iggypiggy · 24/02/2010 10:01

Sorry been away a bit - just dropping by the say yay for 4ever and her scan - was thinking of you yesterday!

MLS good luck for today - have my hand too. x

speak to you all properly soon.

Neeko · 24/02/2010 10:25

Morning!

Despite having texted already I'm also sending positive vibes and huge hugs to MLS Remember your symptoms have been strong and you've had no indication that anything is wrong. This is a different pregnancy and what's gone before is null and void. Really wish I could be with you in RL to hold your hand but the inconsiderate airline staff won't let me fly!

4ever still smiling for you. Glad all ok. Hope you enjoyed One Born last night. I thought the VBAC woman's husband was a bit of a prat. She was clearly scared and instead on encouraging her he was telling her it was her own fault and she should have asked for a section! Grrr!

Moon It DOES sound promising but I totally understand why you're scared. Day 29 today - maybe a wee test on Fri? You'll def be 14 days past your ov pains by then. Ok, no more pressure just

Blue Poor Ben and his first jags. They're so small to have them aren't they? (Although I really believe in having them done) DD has her pre-school boosters tomorrow - eek!

Sabs Hope you're feeling better today and you can get on with showing Saara the world

Mermaid FWIW I miss you too. Hope you're doing ok. The thread just isn't the same without you.

Jools Hope you're ok too and you and DP are dealing with your grief together. Big hug.

Big hug to Monkey too. I'm sure every day is such a rollercoaster for you at the moment.

Curly I also had a at Grace asleep on your chest. My DH used to fight me for those cuddles after DD had fed. He called them Puggled Cuddles (translation: exhausted) and actually announced out of the blue the other day that he can't wait to have one with this baby.

LBM Glad the class was so positive and hope your cold is better. I know I could go anyday and am organised in the sense that the bags are packed but I'm also mentally bracing myself that I could go until 42 weeks. Don't worry though, I won't stay at home long enough to risk a home birth - especially not when I've been doing all this cleaning!

Vjay What have you got planned for your weekend away? Have heard that Dynamic Earth is good and may be quite entertaining for DS1.

Morning Annie How's things?

Thanks for your lovely words yesterday. As always they do help. Feeling much better today. Have resumed the cleaning too although it's snowing here so no washing out today.
I found a gorgeous pre-pregnancy top at the back of the wardrobe today when I was looking for something else. Just out of interest and with no pressure intended, how are our yummy mummies getting on with getting back into their pre-pregnancy clothes? Took me aaages with DD and never got right back down. THIS time though...

Neeko · 24/02/2010 10:26

Big wave to Iggy as she races out the door in one of her new maternity cardigans

MLS 4 hours to go!

VJay · 24/02/2010 10:33

Hi neeko we are planning on going to Dynamic Earth and the castle this time As for getting back into shape, it's very slow for me, it was last time too, I'm still 2 sizes bigger on top, and 1 size bigger on the bottom, just hoping that when I stop feeding it will come off a bit quicker. We have had loads of snow here too, now my telly is going funny!
Dh is also down on the central belt for another meeting, just hope he gets home tonight, I'll be sending him to blues house, she's closest

Neeko · 24/02/2010 10:36

Vjay At least he'll be used to being woken in the night if Ben gets up
Fortunately our snow isn't lying and has stopped for now. Usually spend the whole year hoping for it, but Christmas time really scunnered me and we didn't have it half as badly as you.

VJay · 24/02/2010 10:40

I have just spoken to my neighbour, he's an RAC man, and he's told me that the snow gates are closed along the A9 . Lets hope it all melts by the time dh needs to come home again

4everhopeful · 24/02/2010 10:42

Flying in naughtily from work to wish MLS well and offer a HUGE hand squeeze for 2.30pm! Ill say a little prayer for you.. Bet you are in weeble central at the mo

Blummin phone broke, new one delivered tonight, will get on PC when I get home, should be about 2.30pmish so will be avidly lurking...

Waves to all... x x x x x
