Blue SEX DRIVE????? Surely not! I've not got time for one of those!

Hello BakingQueen - Nice to see you back!

Morning all, welcome back BQ missed ya, stay strong hon... Just poppin into let Mermaid know that me & dh & even bubs i think are all crossing various body parts for u today, my brave weeble... I know that tummy churning numb fear u are feeling my sweet & im just praying so so so hard for u... Ill be stuck to my phone from 11.30 onwards... Big squeezy sweaty hand holds... X x x x x

You girls have been v busy chatting so will catch up later but just want to send massive hugs to monkey for being so brave yesterday, my poor weeble 4ever and lovely moon who is hopefully on her second day of pregnancy xxx

and the biggest hug to mermaid I know you must be crapping yourself. I would do anything and I mean anything for you to be coming out of there with a big grin on your face But as I can only hold your hand, how about you take mine now and I'll start squeezing xxx

lovely to see baking back and I better get up (again!) and get something to eat as cupcake is making me hungry!!!

qa I am handing over my (self-appointed) mammoth poster crown

Just a quickie from me too to wish lovely Mermaid all the luck in the world for your scan. DS and I have everything crossed for you xxx

Will come back later for news and a catch up, love to all xxx

Hello chatty ladies
Going to try to post as much as I can in a short window..

Mermaid Huge hugs for today. Waiting with bated breath.

Moon i think you're lovely and would so miss you if you went away. we're here until we ALL have los. x

monkey Hope the other day went well. I've been thinking of you often.

QA I LOVE TMI about TTC

Vjay I grow em big too. Well done for seeking early help and belated well done on the last assignment.

Curly Your DD is gorgeous.

4ever Poor love. The end is in sight.

cupcake pecan pie sounds divine. Maybe after a choc free month... You sound dead chilled and happy -is lovely

Iggy You'll be fab and remember your lo will have no one to compare you with either

MLSthebigpanteratlast waited a long time for this P.S. we look alll giggly in our pic.

blue thanks -again- for text support and of course they're in size order. Who wouldn't do that? How's the bathrooms?

And my time is up love to everyone else

4ever what do you mean, I was talking about my birth announcement.

Not really...I of course meant you and we all can't wait!! By the way I hate the 'hi fatso' type comments too; one of my friends keeps doing it to me and it's getting a little old. The other day in a restaurant she said 'if I eat anymore I'll be as fat as cupcake'

moon massive hugs to you lovely & you absolutely DO support us all; there are loads of occasions where you have helped me put things in perspective & encouraged me so please don't feel you're not needed here.

mermaid words can't express how much I'm wishing and hoping for you. Hand-holds, hair strokes and back rubs for you x

Lol qa if I start baking for the midwives I really will need a truck to get to the hospital

Hi baking! Was just thinking of you the other day. Hope you're ok...still pole dancing??

Still no twinges here, hmph. Need to get bouncing on my ball! Might start drinking the raspberry leaf too

Hi Neeko glad you are getting a few seconds to post!

And blue forgot to say that is so lovely about B being complimented at the support group you must have felt all proud

Morning, and big hand squeezes to mermaid, am thinking of you heaps

blue thanks for those book titles, I have jotted them down and am heading over to amazon in a mo to check them out. Ajay still wakes up 1-2 times a night too, and I was thinking about controlled crying last noght, but I think it's still hunger and teething, plus he's still in with us, so a bit unfair on dh if I try the controlled crying. He has done the odd night sleeping through, so here's hoping they become more frequent

mls WELCOME to the BIG PANT bench, you need to change your hover

moon you are a part of this thread, we are all sewn in together, you can't move ha ha , stay where you are lovely lady, we will get you there

4ever ....17 days to go....

lbm day 2 of your mat leave, enjoy!!!!!!

QA I'm wishing you some sunshine so you can enjoy your lovely new clothes

BQ welcome home lovely, how've you been?

monkey how are you today?, hope yesterday was as well as it could be

neeko my lovely fellow big breeder

I'm supposed to be studying now, so will 'pop' to amazonm then lurk for news, laters...

Hi Vjay I've read the 3rd of those books and it's very good.

BQ welcome bak. You've been missed. Is your poledancing at professional level now?

Cupcake What's happening in series 2? I'll need to rewatch.

and out of time again. logging off...

Morning lovely Cupcake! For a second there i felt all presumptous & ! Ur so sweet & funny! It really is very kind of u to say that but obviously ur birth announcement is long awaited too! Yep, why do people think its ok to make rude comments about what is imo essentially a beautiful thing? Dont normally let it bother me too much but the timing yest was terrible! I agree with Neeko its lovely to hear u so relaxed & chilled! Im also thinkin about the raspberry leaf tea to help things along naturally, as well as some sex!!! Apparently that & nipple tweaking stimulates oxytocin the labour/uterus softening hormone! TMI i know, but wondering if might help prepare for induction & hopefuly stop it lasting days!? .....Goes without sayin that here i am with every bit crossed for Mermaid still, clockwatching & getting ready for a collective group hand hold & prayer at 11am, im literally willing a healthy beating bean on that scan screen as we all are from each corner of this earth.... Also want to say to dear Moon that u absolutely contribute massively, we are all emmsys together, just at different stages, we have all felt like u do, remember it happened before & it will happen again & we are all united in our journeys together... Curly thanks for that hug sweetie! Was much needed, im at my rant now cos did get when heard preg ladies moan as just thought how much id love to be myself, im truly grateful & over my oh woe me, yep it hurts like hell but the worse is yet to come & im ready to embrace it for the miraculous long awaited outcome! This is why us women were built strong after all, that includes to cope with the heartache along our journeys too.... Talking of heartache thought of you lots yesterday Monkey hope it was peaceful & poignant & that the psychiatrist helped a little? Share when ur ready.... Neeko hello sweet, you & MLS do look all giggly & cute with ur dds! Laughed at ur monica style size ordering of clothes!

4ever I'm here ready for group hand holding and prayer for mermaid at 11am

Took me so long to do that post i x posted! Waves to Neeko meant to say im plannin to do same size thing with bubs clothes but finding it v hard to motivate at the mo! ... Big wave to Vjay too! I also at the breed em big comment! sounds like im in that camp with u & Neeko too! Btw that cool the celestine prophesy did the rounds amongst a few friends some years ago, do check it out lovely... Oooh! Just had my tutti bambino nursing chair delivered from mothercare always wanted a rocking chair! Its courtesy of my 88yr old great aunt bless her! Cant wait for dh to get home so i can try it out!

OMG its nearly 11am Vjay and all emmsys, hands at the ready, let us pray for our lovely Mermaid please god let this be her fighter bean...
