Tea I've missed you. Here's a bottle of Reef. Do you remember them. Tastes like Orange juice. I saw them in a pub yesterday and though we should add them to our stash. Sorry about the unemployment bit. Well at least we van entertain you. Have given up on the buses threads as they are so depressing and boring.

TeaFan · 08/06/2010 12:14

Lol Lou I had a actual bottle of Reef last weekend!! Cheers!! While we're on alcopops, can I add Smirnoff Mules to the menu, used to go to a pub where they were BOGOF - delish!

Unemployment is okay, only been a couple of weeks so still a novelty and am still catching up on jobs! I'm sure i'll be bored very soon (not to mention skint!)

I agree about buses, anyway am def not pg this month as got scared of being up duff whilst unemployed and ending up on JK so didn't shag after CD8 Will this stop me symptom spotting this month? We'll see!!

PollyPoo · 08/06/2010 15:31

Blimey, I go away for a few weeks and look what happens! Big congrats for Iced and UmBongo, I'm well chuffed for you.

I've brought you some scrumpy and a bumper bag of jam doughnuts. Dig in!

Icedlemonmuffin · 08/06/2010 15:46

Thanks Polly, had an early scan today and saw a heartbeat how are you and mini polly?

That's good news iced.

Snatches Scrumpy off Polly. How's baby Jesus or is that bubby holly? See what I did there.

Tea will join you in drinking some mules and reefs. Jobs are overrated don't you know.

PollyPoo · 08/06/2010 16:20

How exciting Iced! How many weeks are you?

We have not had early scan so for all I know it could be a phantom pregnancy. Still, we have 12 wk dating/nuchal fold scan on Monday so I will soon find out. I am mostly terrified and having awful nightmares... I hope after Monday has been and gone, and my fetal doppler turns up, I will be able to put my mind at rest and come out of de nile.

Lou are you still doing hypnotherapy or acupuncture?

Icedlemonmuffin · 08/06/2010 16:33

Nearly seven and going for another scan in five weeks.I have been swinging from denial to full on freak out for the past three weeks.

Still can't believe it, only went to the doctors this morning to ask for early scan and ten minutes after I got home the receptionist phoned to say I could have a scan this afternoon. All happened very fast and I couldn't believe every thing was ok was shaking loads when she was doing the scan.

Really could of done with some White lightning in the waiting room seeing all those big bumps going past made me want to cry. Not sure about the mules also seemed to make my mouth really dry.

PollyPoo · 08/06/2010 16:47

Did they give you early scan due to past mc? Sorry I can't remember all the histories...

It's great that it all happened so quickly - gave you less time to stress about it!!

PollyPoo · 08/06/2010 16:48

Oh yes, I remember Mules always dried my mouth out too. Yuck! I'll stick with the scrumpy thanks.

Loujalou · 08/06/2010 16:55

At least they are looking after you Iced that is a good thing and if they find a heartbeat that is a good sign too. I have all my fingers and toes crossed for you.

Icedlemonmuffin · 08/06/2010 17:01

Early scan due to mmc and nearly bleeding to death in resus! Gp is really nice and understanding, but after Reading other threads realise how lucky I am to get early scan. But your right about it helping my sanity, what's left of it after ttfc for so long!

Good luck for Monday, what if there is two?

UmBongo · 09/06/2010 13:58

Helloooo Tea thanks for the congrats! Nice to see you back, but sorry for the lack of job.

Well done on the early scan Iced and good luck for yours on Monday Polly Thanks for the donuts!

Well I have started telling people in rl. Only close friends and family who all know the troubles we have been having! So having fun giving good news and getting hugged lots!

Fairygodmother1 · 09/06/2010 18:20

Blimey you lot have been busy while I've been handcuffed to my wii.

How are the preggo ones??? Filling out over your white mini-skirts & boob tubes.

I'm having a fat day today cos I need to use bits out of the freezer.

I've brought some left over spiked punch from the weekend - any cheapo alcohol I could find & some fruit, with a dash of lemonade - anyone want a glass. Gett you in the summer mood on this miserable day!

Loujalou · 09/06/2010 20:01

Was being a bit nosy but was wondering what part of the country you were from.

Am from north london originally but now live in the country not too far away...

Fairy punch sounds lovely.... Here's some Pimms has some yesterday and it was like bliss in a glass. Yummy!

Fairygodmother1 · 10/06/2010 17:21

I'm from South East London originally & moved to Kent.

Loujalou · 10/06/2010 20:52

My first love lived in South East London [Wistful look emoticon]

Fairygodmother1 · 10/06/2010 21:47

Lol! Not one of mine I hope....

Loujalou · 11/06/2010 11:39

Mmmmm... unless your ex lived in Crofton Park tis unlikely.

Fairygodmother1 · 11/06/2010 20:05

Nope, but I lived in Lewisham for a bit as a kid!

Fairygodmother1 · 12/06/2010 10:07

Yay! I lost 5lb & 6cm off my waist!!!!

Loujalou · 12/06/2010 10:27

Well done Fairy. Think its just us two at the park at the moment.

Icedlemonmuffin · 12/06/2010 13:56

That's great Fairy but I think I've found your 5lbs !

Can't do up my jeans anymore having to use a hair bobble to keep them up, but I'm not complaining even when my head is down the toilet!

Well I expect all you lovely biatches have got your England bikinis on and a bottle of Tudor rose (street drunks choice of drink) by your side.

How's the swi going?

Fairygodmother1 · 12/06/2010 19:57

Yep got my England Bikini on that will go see-through if it gets wet! I feel we should be drinking real Ale as thats very English!!! Roast Beef Sarnie anyone? Fish & chips???

Thank you for well wishing. I hope this loss in 5lb will get me closer to getting 5lb in baby weight!!!!!
