A thread for all of us who were due in 2010 and who've bonded through the last few weeks.

It doesn't matter where your head/heart's at on this journey at the moment just as long as you want some company....

Congratulations to you, McKTastic.Smile Really pleased for you

McKTastic · 14/11/2010 21:36

Thank you so much for your kind wishes - I know there will be mixed feelings there too but hopefully we'll all get to the end of our journey positively one day. At the mo it feels like i'm far from seeing my happy ending.
Feel bad writing this but am feeling really low - have been throwing up on a regular basis and feel really weak. Thought we'd be past the worst now but ended up in tears again tonight - am finding it harder and harder to visualise getting through each day :( our journeys are def not straightforward.

Hey Loopy how are you doing? And McKT? I haven't been posting much in here coz obviously some of you have moved on while I'm still stuck being miserable and jealous and I feel bad for that coz you two really deserve your little beans!

So how are you? Any more scan news? Did your clot disappear Loopy?

Pink, Fordy how are you ladies doing?

It's our 10th anniversay today so we are going to London tomoz to see Wicked and stay in a hotel. On Saturday I am being taken to Tiffany to choose my bday pressie!

Another who hasn't been posting much. Sorry.

Not had any joy with DP's house, infact he hasn't even had one viewer since his buyers dropped out. I also had another big meltdown a couple of weeks back - my worst yet, so went back to doctors & have now got ADs.

Pleased all is going well with your pregnancies, Loopy & McKTastic. Am thrilled for you both, but also rather jealous.
Sorry you have been feeling rough, McKTastic. Hopefully it will soon pass.

McKTastic · 20/11/2010 19:21

Hey all :) good to hear from you.

That's pants about DPs house Pink - we're contemplating trying to sell both of ours but doesn't seem like best of times to do so. How are you doing with ADs? Hope they are giving you a little bit of respite from feeling so low.

How's you Velvet? How's the promotion going?

Am thinking of you for tomorrow Loopy. Think my emotions have been taken over by where we're at now and within that the fact I started a new - extremely full on- job a few weeks ago means I'm not getting much thinking time. Prob a good thing as I'm still not in that positive zone. Hopeful but mindful of the what could happen stuff a bit more than I'd like.
Thinking of you all ( and Fordy and YRMOTB) xx

Hey girlies
Your roses sound lovely Loopy. Glad you were all together yesterday.

Am off work today :( feel horribly guilty but all too much at the mo - spent another weekend completely horizontal or puking ended up in tears so am trying to listen to my body.

Roll on Jan - am likely to feel better by then ?!?! and am sure 2011 will be a better one for all of us.

How are you all? Fordy? Thinking of you all x

youremindmeofthebabe · 22/11/2010 13:51

you seem to be getting the rough end of the stick there mckt. hope you start feeling better soon, should pass by 16 weeks, shouldn't it-hopefully?

Glad it went ok loopy. Flowers are a nice touch. Mine is on SundaySad

pink how are you doing?

velvet HaPpY bIrThDaY! Bear

Fordy are you ok?

fordypops · 22/11/2010 15:38

hey lovelies, It's so so kind of you to be thinking of me. I have tried to post a few times over the weekend but couldn't seem to get the words right but today I am not going till i get something down.

So sorry you're feeling bad pink hoopefully you should be feeling better soon.

velvet what did you pick?? I have been eyeing up the lovely initials on the tiffany website...its very tempting.

McKTastic you really are feeling it aren't you, poor thing. Don't feel guilty, you are doing the right thing by listening to your body.

loopy how are you feeling today? the roses sound like a beautiful touch.

yrmotb I'll be thinkig of you to on sunday, how are you feeling?

I think I have picked up a sickness bug and have spent all day feeling nauseas, if my period hadnt been last week i wwould have thought I was pregnant again ( even though we are taking precautions) its a sad reminder not helped by the fact that I have been out today shopping for baby things for my friend at work. I am attempting to push myself into getting over it, a little bit of tough love, even if I spent the whole time holding back the tears and wishing it was for me. Sad But you know I think I am getting there, all beit very slowly, a month ago I wouldn't have gone anywhere near mothercare so its a small step but at least its a start.

McKTastic · 24/11/2010 10:40

Good to hear from you Fordy. Small steps even if it feels like you go backwards as well as forwards.

McKTastic def not feeling fantastic. Have been signed off work with hyperemesis :( feeling quite isolated (and v sorry for myself!)

Thinking of you all x

youremindmeofthebabe · 24/11/2010 13:02

I did wonder mcktastic when you said how ill you were feeling. Sorry, by all accounts hyperemesis is awful.
fordy lovely to hear from you, I am feeling ok thanks, am in a whirlwind of party planning (ds bday party on Sunday). Well done for the shopping, it's always difficult, isn't it?

pink How are you? Any house news?

velvet did you have a lovely bday?

loopy how's it going? Christmas presents done for the kids?

McKTastic · 26/11/2010 13:15

Hey all
Hope you're all doing ok :)

Velvet - please do tell what you got from Tiffanys.....I used to have a gorgeous silver ring from there until I lost it breaking up a fight between two pupils while we were on a school trip :(

Loopy - sorry your suffering too. Can't imagine feeling pants AND having DCs to look after - fingers crossed it'll pass although anyone who tells me that at mo is likely to get lynched!

Am still in bed :( going to try and get up for a bit but life easier faced horizontally at the mo. Don't think this is something I'm any good at :( will hopefully fare better the other end of it all.

What the rest of you up to?

Will be thinking of you on Sunday YRMOTB both for what should have been and the thought of you surrounded by jelly! Is the party at home?

Our DD next Wed which is also DPs bday - at this rate he'll wake up empty handed but hopefully I'll find something online.

Thinking of you all xxx

youremindmeofthebaubles · 27/11/2010 18:31

No, the party is at the little church hall near me. Will be nice. I keep getting irrational anger surges, and then forgetting. My head's all over atm. Thanks for thinking though, mck.

fordypops · 28/11/2010 11:24

thinking of you today yrmotb xx

McKTastic · 28/11/2010 11:59

YRMOTB - hope the party goes well and the walk there's not too blizzardy!!

Am not too unhappy I don't need to venture outside!

Thinking of you today too.

Hey Fordy :) how's you? What you up to on your day off or are you surrounded by snow too?

Hello Loopy - have been reading your news elsewhere :), Pink and Velvet xxx

Thanks all. It was ok really. I only nearly melted down when I couldn't find a lighter to light my candle at the end of the day. But I didn't melt down as had a friend staying!

That's beautiful velvet.

McKTastic · 01/12/2010 14:22

Thinking of what could've been :) :)
but grateful for where we're at for now.

TOY all xx
