Come and gather... we have ice cream!

This thread is a very special one as it will contain one very long-awaited birth announcement and hopefully more sleep for our yummy mummies & lots of BFPs!

Get your pom poms out...

arrggghhhh my mn page has gone weird

GracieGirl · 26/05/2010 09:57

OMG!!!!!!!! DD just put herself to sleep!!! no rocking, crying, pacing, shh/patting, hand holding, sling-walking, or 10 mile hike in a pram (yes I've checked she's alive!). I was about to go out shopping but she's fast asleep in her chair, it seems a shame to spoil it by waking her now!

GracieGirl · 26/05/2010 09:59

Curly - clubbing?????? I don't think I can remember the last time I went clubbing! god I'm old!

Morning girls, can't believe there's still no news from 4ever Hope she's okay... How are you today Cupcake? Have only skimmed through last few posts as in a rush, but are you having a sweep today?

VJay I too am another one who thinks you're fab You always know what to say, and are so supportive to everyone on here, as well as being a wonderful mum. Your boys are lucky to have you. I think all of us doubt ourselves at times, it's only natural. Keep telling yourself that we all think you are wonderful and lovely, and hopefully it'll sink in

Thanks so much for all the fashion advice ladies, I have ordered both dresses (first to placate dh who doesn't like the second) but I really love the second one. Have been looking for shoes (LOVE the ones you found MLS) and am also going to go for a bangle/s (thanks Barbie) and a flower (fab idea Moon - how/where do I put it in? ) so will search for that later. Am back in the UK this weekend so having everything delivered to dad's and will bring it back. By the way, it's a day time wedding - that dress will be okay won't it? Not too eveningy?

Must dash as loads to do, but will keep popping back to check for news!

monkeybumsmum · 26/05/2010 10:04

Gracie Well done your dd!!! Take advantage and put your feet up!

GracieGirl · 26/05/2010 10:07

Sorry Vjay I agree with the others, I've always viewed you as a wonderful person, who manages her busy life really well, yet keeps in touch with us on her almost everyday despite being the first to get their baby.

Cupcake sweep today - I hope it gets things swiftly moving - can you walk home from the sweep? That often gets things going so don't go on your own.

4ever I really hope you're doing ok, its all taking a very long time.

Morning Monkey I like both dresses- sorry that's not very helpful is it!

littlebellsmum · 26/05/2010 11:16

MLS I do love you but posting that link is just unfair! However, I never had her figure in the first place...

Baby4ever what are you doing - this is not fair on Mummy and Daddy ( or the rest of us) hurry up!

cupcake I think another date must be in order this week - your LO will be here soon. Hope the sweep works - one on my antenatal friends had one and it was OK and got things moving when she was a week late

CurlyBigPants · 26/05/2010 11:24

Gracie I am in awe of your amazingosity curlygirl never goes to sleep without a struggle!!!

I like the attitude monkey - if in doubt, buy both monsoon accesorize have lots of clips with silk flowers I think

vj while we are saying nice stuff about you can I also say that you also crack me up, especially when you and Barbie are left unsupervised to chat!!! Back in school you would have been made to sit at different ends of the classroom

I just love it when curlygirl whips out my breastpad while feeding and chucks it over her shoulder... Embarrassed moi??!!

CurlyBigPants · 26/05/2010 11:26

MummyLovesSadie · 26/05/2010 12:18

Surely no woman would be allowed to labour for 5 days without some kind of intervention??

barbie1 · 26/05/2010 12:29

mls when i had my epidural and drip they would only let me labour for max of 12 hours because it puts too much stress on both mother and baby...4ever i way over that now, is she not?

monkeybumsmum · 26/05/2010 12:43

It's been far too long, just hope all is okay...
Am off out for a few hours, please could somebody let me know if anyone hears anything? Thanks xxx

MummyLovesSadie · 26/05/2010 12:51

Has anyone sent 4ever a text today?

barbie1 · 26/05/2010 12:57

Has anyone noticed that vj hasnt been back? i bet she is at the printers printing of all the lovely things we have written about her, and then she will decorate her walls with it all! then she can show her dickhead dh how popular she is! Come back vj i dont like being at the back of the class on my own....

gg well done! Im sure dd is getting better too thanks to my mum. We now always put her in her moses to sleep and at first it took 30 mins of shh/ patting but now we can do it in five. We just leave her in there and sit next to her and pat her. We have worked out she needs to be put down to sleep max 2 hours from when she last wakes, so much easier!

curly is curlygirl getting any better, isnt it just divine when they 'talk'.... lol at breast stealing! Barbiegirl pulls at what ever i use to cover her, many a time my boob has been exposed to bemused onlookers.....

monkey babyliss in boots do some fab hair slids, vintage looking ones which you just sit on the side of your head...very cannes red carpet!

moon forgot to say hello to you my lovely, i miss you!

barbie1 · 26/05/2010 12:59

mls i sent one the other day but got no reply (not that i expected too) but i think i might have the wrong number?? so in answer to your question...not me!

MummyLovesSadie · 26/05/2010 13:01

Right have just found her number, will text her...

MummyLovesSadie · 26/05/2010 13:21

Maybe her phone battery really is dead? She must have given birth by now.

Hmmmmmm I wonder what hospital she is in????

iggypiggy · 26/05/2010 13:26

I think I know which hosp she is in....

keep lurking for news. Hope all is ok...

barbie1 · 26/05/2010 13:26

mls i didnt pack my phone charger, thought i wouldnt be in there so long! lets look back over the thread, im sure she mentioned which hospital....

barbie1 · 26/05/2010 13:28

hi iggy! which hospital do you think... is it a bit stalkerish if we called them

MummyLovesSadie · 26/05/2010 13:28

West Middlesex?

barbie1 · 26/05/2010 13:31

i doubt they would give us any info if we called...patient confidentiality and all that...

MummyLovesSadie · 26/05/2010 13:34

Yes I know but it's a bit strange that we still haven't heard anything. She must have given birth by now, one way or another.

CurlyBigPants · 26/05/2010 14:09

lurking again anything yet????
