Dundonians, Fifers, Angusoids and Perthites - Over here!

[PinkPussyCat]

Welcome to the crisp shiny new thread! The old one was getting a wee bit stoorie and dog-eared.

Have done my best to list all those from the previous thread, though some may have namechanged since then... hope I've included everyone - apologies to anyone missed.

ladies, dd3 has bronchilitis so been hectic, not forgotten about you all though

geordieminx loads of places - jumping joeys in arbroaeh is good, will get back to you with some more when I have a minute

GeordieMinx, I'm not sure what to suggest as I live elsewhere in Angus there but have been to Jumping Joeys and enjoy a good fish supper at Marco's.

You could check out Angus Ahead listings

Thanks guys, its not urgent, I was just wondering if anyone had any local knowledge or stayed in Arbroth. If all else fails I he can always go paddling in the sea

Ah well, you'll need to go to Lunan Bay!

We could have a MN day out...... hwink

Lunan bay is one of my fav places in the UK.

hi everyone...somehow managed to lose you for a while! Am v knackered. Did anyone get pains "down below" intermittently when in late pregnancy (am 34+3) kind of shooting down my thigh on occasion....

Pains? I remember them! They were affectionately referred to on out ante-natal thread as KNUF (knitting needle up fanny)

That sounds normal I'm afraid, Babybear77.... weight if baby pressing on nerves

hello everyone.............

Afternoon all.....what a beautiful day

I went in the garden with dd1 and ds4 and played chasing and hide and seek for a while but ds4 soon got tired and we came in

ds4 has been really unwell for about 3 weeks and although the doc can find no infection he is running a slight temp and gets tired very easilly and is sleeping a lot...he is also complaining of sore legs and of being cold...not normal for a 3 yr old
doc says to take him back this week if no better and she will refer to hosp for blood tests etc I am so worried and keep thinking the worst....hope it's just a long lasting nasty virus........

Oh minipink Poor ds4, and poor you. It is so worrying when they're just not themselves. I hope he feels better soon.

Let us know how he goes. How are the rest of the crew?

thanks PPC

abbie is great as are other dc's. ds1 is swimming in senior championships this wkend and has made 2 british times so a step closer to 2012..... couldn't be there due to ds4 being unwell though....

Wow that's fantastic! Well done your ds1. How exciting for him to be aiming for the olympics!

Will keep everything crossed for ds4.

Ds is asleep atm, I am on mn and dh is on his laptop. Anti-social but blissful peace

Hi all been ages since i've checked in.

I've been really stressed DS2 has finally been confirmed as having hearing loss really bad in his right ear and not too bad in his left ear. I'm gutted because this has taken nearly 4 years to get a full test done. The poor thing has been through so much. And the nursery want to keep him back another year but he really is so clever he doesn't need to. So thanks to the health visitor she is going to help me get him all the help he needs for going to school. Aargh nothings simple.
Now 19 weeks pregnant its flying in so far go for my scan a week on wednesday, where we'll find out the sex. Kyle wants a boy sister lol I think however we only do boys!! Everythings gone smoothly so far so just need to get the 28 week cardiac views out the way then i can really relax or not!

My god that was long

Hope everyone is well xx

hi jenny glad you are well....not been on for a while and haven't seen you at school for a while....be sure to show me scan pics

where is everyone? xxxx

Hi Jenny, good to hear from you. Sounds like you've got an awful lot on your plate. Lol at Kyle wanting a boy sister!

Minipink how is ds4? Hope he's better.

Not much going on here. Waiting for dh to come back around 10pm, he's been away on a course since Tuesday. I am getting fed up of my own company now in the evenings!

Morning all, how is everyone? Sounds like you're all having a busy and very stressful time lately!?

I've been up most of the night, ds coughing/wheezing, and tossing & turning in our bed most of the night! So very tired today and planning a quiet afternoon at home, ignoring the housework and christmas shopping I need to do... May even ask dh to bring takeaway for tea as my Tesco delivery isn't coming until tomorrow and the contents of the freezer are not inspiring me! At least I can have an early night tonight as I'm not working thank goodness.

hello all

sorry your ds has been unwell bosyouruncle hope things are better now

ds4 is giving me real concern - he is not ill and doc thinks he had a post viral thing but I am concerned about his behaviour and development HV has referred to paeds but I think he is hyperactive but does not have attention deficit...however, I feel there is something else going on...somewhere on the spectrum....but aren't we all

hope you are all well.............what about a meet up before Christmas....maybe a play place?

hi ladies thought i'd check in and share my scan details with you all.

Its a boy!!! I'm so thrilled 4 boys i'm so outnumbered

His heart looks good no cause for concern, but will go back at 28 weeks for detailed views.

I have a low lying placenta so hopefully that will go away so to speak as i reeeeaally don't want a cs.

Consultant was positive too and is hopefully ds to be won't have to go to scbu.

After all the positive they could have told me i was having a monkey i was that happy lol!!

Got an excellent photo of his face straight its amazing.

Ds1 was kinda miffed it was another boy but is happy now we've said we'll put wall-e on the names list

Our only problem is what on earth to call the little guy!?!

Hope everyone is well

love
Jenny

meant his face straight on oops

meant his face straight on oops

aw jenny I am sooooooooo pleased for you. 4 boys same as me..... boys are fab and they always love their mums

please show me scan pic next week at school xx

hello ladies I am in angus..just stumbled upon the thread and thought I would say hello!....pregnant (13 weeks) with number 2, ds1 is 20 months old. My partner works in dundee so thought I would drop a line!

Hello + Welcome nelix Nice to see you

Congrats on the pregnancy. All well so far?

My ds is 16 months. I feel I am never off the go and can't imagine having another! I have been on night shift all weekend though, so everything is an effort at the moment!

Hi, yep all is well so far lol!......as for DS1 I think we were blessed with a kid who sleeps through 12-14 hours a night, eats well, rarely tantrums etc...not PFB sydrome can I say lol....he is my reason for having another. I dont think I would have had the energy for a second if he was different. So knowing my luck I will be carrying his polar opposite!!!!! but I always wanted 2 so would prob have done it anyway!
Oh lord working nightshift AND a 16 month old DS? no wonder you feel exhausted! I am a SAHM so can nap when he does etc. Mainly i study tho as I am doing a degree via the open uni which is time consuming
