Do y` ever wonder what it would be like to give birth on the shag pile?

[triplets]

Do y`?

Hello all.

Beau fine now, totally over it. No more farcking bugs allowed.

FG how are you today? I had the dreaded flu at New Year and actually had to go to bed, never happens to me. Took a week to feel right again, managed to lose about half a stone though, silver lining and all that...

Tripletsandtwins how is it all going? It must be hell fun going out with them all. How are are you managing shopping etc with them all?

Triplets thinking of you, hope tomorrow brings positive news. We are all hear with you.

Pixi how many calls have you had today re; 'have you had that baby yet?' They do drive you insane with it. I was asked alot despite still sporting a mahooosive bump

Momma how are you coping without dh? Hope yuo are feeling better, the sinusitus sounds awful.

I am miserable, raging hormones and period arrived so no Xmas baby for me. DH off to Sea in January and not sure i want to do it all alone again

I have also had an abnormal smear result too so i have to go in to hospital for a Colposcopy. Am terrified This was my first smear since dd 7 yeras ago, i am scared i have left something undetected for so long and now am beyond help. Of course it could be nothing, i think the hormones are making me paranoid. I am not usually so affected by them, it seems to be much worse since having Beau. This is only the 3rd one too, oh it sucks being a girl.

LG&T glad to hear you're all bug free finally. We'll have to descend on you before the next round.

Mars tell your next birthing lady to get a move on and I'll keep holding mine in till you get here.

Now today DS1 was supposed to get a lift back from school again, but when I'd left him this morning the mum still hadn't dropped her son off. So do I go to the school later just in case? lol I always find something to stress over.

DH had to take day off work to clear the house today. In the loft he found my old tree house, my fisher price pull along dog and fisher price musical train with records. Can't wait to see them all again. Not sure if I'll be letting heavy handed DS1 near them though

Thanks everyone for asking. I don't really feel any better. Less sore in the body but more sick feeling, shakey, bunged up, no voice, and my cough....owwwww. Still can't eat and even toothpaste makes me want to throw up. LG&T, have been in bed since Sunday I know that sounds lovely, but really, its hell. I feel just awful and I could cry a river with frustration.

Pixi, I'm willing Mars' client to pop out that baby so she can be your emergency chur.

TKB, been thinking about you. I did notice no posts and I remember you'd been feeling low. Keep evaluating it honey. If its affecting you more and more then do something. I am also taking my own advice.

Sorry, I'm done, need to lie down again.

Tigs, congratualtions! What happens next?

Hi TKB!! Great to see you back here. Dont worry about the meet up - its still two months away! I am hoping everyone will suddenly decide to go at the last minute (as long as tehre are rooms still available!).

Great news Tigs - best of luck - remind me how old your 3 are? Will there be a big difference?

Pixi - hang in there, cant wait to hear your news when it comes!

Hello again T&T, hope you are keeping well, big hugs to FG with the flu (the only bonus is that when you cant eat, you lose weight, but of course you probably dont need to........being Gabby Logan and all that).

Big waves to everyone else!

TK... you're supposed to post even if you think your problems aren't big enough. Sheesh!!!!!!!! Do I need to spell it out to you all? We're here to support one another in whatever way is necessary!

Right now I need to pop out and get a new microphone for the pc so that I can record my french. Plus I need to do the written work because I want to go dancing tonight and also I have a shedload of postnatal work starting this evening.

Love my work... can't wait for my holiday

Pixi... in the words of the song "Hold oooooooonnnnnnnnnnnn, I'm comin'. Hold on.... I'm comin'" Well certainly doing my best to get to you.

oh LG&T - I'm sorry - how long is dh away for from January?

Pixi - I wish I was closer, not that I would probably be of any use

TK - good to see you

bloody hell I am falling behind constantly.

Mars sorry STILL have not posted book .

Triplets, good luck for tomorrow .

T&T I find it a struggle to go out with all three on my own unless it's just the nursery run, how on earth do you manage?

Tiggs, how very very exciting! Good luck with trying for a new cub. I have to live my excitement through others now as I will never be having any more.

LG&T, sorry the dreaded period is here and making you feel so low.

Pixi, bit late now but I would like to think that if the woman is NOT picking up your DS she would let you know??? And best of best of luck when the baby comes!

To everyone with bugs, I am with you. Got another cold, my third in the 11 weeks since DTs were born. Really ought to eat more fruit and veg but chocolate and biscuits are so much nicer.

Sorry have missed so much. I often read and then never post as too much to reply to.

Babies had 3 hour nap at lunch, had a feed and have both gone back to sleep . Time to go and play I think.

Egg!!! You sound great despite the colds, i am with you on the biccie front. Should really be eating more green stuff, may huge waistline is not shrinking

TIGS i missed that Cub announcement! Wahooooo, so then hoping for another trio? Heheeee. That would be fab, course it would take you hours to get round the supermarket!

Ooogs dh is off for 9 months in January I am trying not to think about it but it is bringing me down. Hey ho, it is is job and there is nothing we can do about it.

FG stay tucked up my sweet, you will feel better soon.

I know what you mean about the frustration, i was nearly insane with it last year when i went in to prem labour with Beau. I felt fine and had to sit thumb twiddling... Aaaarrrggghhhhh

TK are you on FB? sorry things have been tough for you lately,I'm normally around on there chasing Greek men with Shabby if you ever want a chat.

Well I got myself all prepared to speak to the hospital today...put on my posh voice/ i can cope with more kids (pretend) voice and I ended up having a lovely chat with the answer machine. I probably ended up sounding like a right nutter as I don't half gabble when I'm nervous!!!!

I am hoping to by-pass the wait and go straight to the clinic(normally you have to go through the doctor)as we have all stayed in touch and its easy to speak to someone I know there so they might be able to chop a few corners.
Oh and you will never guess what? My baby Dr has just told me he has got some new equipment that actually takes a picture of your egg before it gets fertilized!! You are allowed to take the picture home with you!! how fab is that?!!! he said he wished he could have done me one of mine to put in their scrap book bless!!!

So....not only will I be able to bore you all with scan pictures and baby pictures you'll get to see me eggs too!!!!!! PMSL!!!

Tigs I just can't do Facebook - I am on there , LG&T found me (did you get my reply LG?) but every time I try to add one of you as a friend or send a message, it crashes the whole system. So I have just given up for now. I was going to post some more wedding photos on there, but I'll just have to bring them to the meet-up (so long as I make it). I forgot to mention your news - how exciting to be trying for another cub . Lots of people asking me these days if we're going to try for a boy now . Aside from the fact that (a) we can't afford another one and (b) don't have room, I just about feel like I'm getting my life back after years of sleepless nights and nappies . So I shall just have to come on here to work through any broodiness .

Hello ooogs, forgot to say, glad you got your 1st choice for DS1. We only got our 3rd choice because of lots of people cheating the system, but we're actually quite pleased with it and DD1 is really happy.

Egg, hello . hope the cold clears up v. soon.

And T&T - I bow down in awe at the fact that you can even remember where your computer is, let alone have time to post .

LG&T pass her to me I just did a search on that name and it says you don't exsist!!!!

How very dare they

So Tiggs - LG&T dosent exist and I am not valid xx

tkband3 are you Tracy L* on FB?????

Shabs I think it's me that doesn't exist!!

Ooogs I'm Tracy Havas (shiny new married name - might as well use it here, haven't got around to changing it on anything else yet . Hope no-one I know is lurking!!)

soz tk - its since Tigs found out I am not valid - my heart is broken [sob emoticon]

My mum dropped off a herbal tincture for me to take. Its echinacea, elderberry and garlic.....can you smell me??? It tasted foul and thats with taste buds that aren't able to taste much atm Then I had a zinz lozenge all washed down with a lucozade chaser. I know how to party

Oh HoochieCoochie, hope you don't mind and thank you! How is your week? Coping without DH? My DD1 is on 3 weeks easter hols

hi all, just popping in, DT2 is poorly, high temp sore throat and whingy

Hoochiemamma!! That is what one of my work colleagues calls me! I was just thinking - who IS THAT! When I realised....our lovely Momma. The one who led me astray on Thursday night, 20 years old, bless her, calls me Hooch for short and when I said I was a bit warm in one of the bars when we were out, announced to everyone that I was going through the menopause!

My DH is not here either if it makes anyone feel better, working late as usual, that or he is sleeping it off somewhere after Mars exhausted him with her tassels!

I'm on my own too! Having worked till stupid o'clock this am DH is still slaving at his desk and won't be home much before midnight I reckon. Feel v. sorry for him, but then also sorry for me cos it'll mean he'll be a bear with a sore head all weekend and I'll have to keep the girls busy.

Still, all the more yummy shepherd's pie for me .

HM, I wondered who Hoochiemomma was too - took me a minute to cotton on [d'oh]. I was collapsed in that lovely chair, but FG needs it more than me at the moment. Here's a nice warm blanket FG, but you should be back in bed my girl [stern voice] .

FG was it you who asked me how old the kids were? They are 5...so age gap will probably be 6-7 years bit crappy I know. Me and my sis have six years between us and we wound each other up until I got into my teens
