I know there was no time and I feel all weighed down with the responsibility of it all, but here we are ladies, a new home...

|Dont panic yet, mine were still doing somersaults in the last weeks, so there is hope yet, 1stmrsF! I also think that weight estimates are notoriously inacurate with twins. If I had listened to mine, I'd have been giving birth to twin elephants!

Hey cm, I didn't know you were expecting again! Wohoo! No idea about vbacs, but good luck.

My older two don't go back til tues neither. I don't know when the dts are due back! Maybe I can just drop them at the door tomo and hope for the best? They are all going stir crazy after the freedoms of holiday camps. It was 23 in Germany, a little heat wave, so they were outside constantly, running wild.

Lew looks gorgeous, very happy looking boy!

Now debating whether all hell will break loose if I try to get a bath. I'm STILL in my PJS.

Hi all
Hope you had great Easter. Dp went back on Tuesday but at least we had 4 whole days together. I have at last persuaded him that he can no longer leave me alone in this country to deal with everything (he's scared that Britain is going bankrupt). Last night we composed a really fantastic CV for him (2 hour phone call !!- and I have contacted a reputable recruitment agent who thinks that he can find him a decent job. Babies are moving and now I can just feel them for the first time. Good luck MrsF I don't know how much bigger can get but I'm frightened to find out.

After resisting it for the longest time, 5 minutes ago I nibbled the tiniest crumb of DT1's easter egg. I was breaking a bit off for her and it fell and its only polite.......

It had to be Cadbury's.

Now I have the taste!

hold me back. I'm starting to rant on the thread about the nurse who got sacked for making that documentary about old people.

1stMrsF · 16/04/2009 19:26

Neddie, don't be scared. It creeps up on you so it's relatively painless...

triplets · 16/04/2009 22:24

triplets · 16/04/2009 22:45

Home less than 24 hours, H just gone to bed slamming the door on me as I have been shouting to the boys to get to sleep and be quiet, he has just read then the riot act, here we go. No results yet, hardly had the pain when we were in France, is it telling me something?

shabster · 16/04/2009 22:54

I thought about you this morning when I was watching the news.....

Dan and Em are beside themselves with the gifts you sent Lew....thank you my friend....they were very much appreciated. xxxxx

triplets · 16/04/2009 22:59

My absolute pleasure Shabs, got a very sweet e-mail from Dan, he doesn`t have to do that, I love buying things for him. The photos were gorgeous, he just brings a big smile to my face

shabster · 16/04/2009 23:02

Im so glad that Dan emailed you - he is usually a 'great putter offer of things!!' They were thrilled to bits. I made the mistake today of standing behind Lew and holding both his hands and running with him!! He almost made himself sick with laughter. For the rest of the day he kept holding his hands up again wanting me to do the same Every bone in my body aches tonight!!!

Today he took 6 steps across my living room by himself...Danny walked at 10 months as well so looks like Lew is copying his Daddy!

triplets · 16/04/2009 23:04

That is very early, clever lad, you`ll be like Twiggy by the summer Shabs with all this running around!

triplets · 16/04/2009 23:20

I missed all the sodding Easter eggs! D'y know in germay they are PLASTIC and you tie them to trees!! pah!
By the time we got back the shops were bare.

Poor you trips! We only just got back the day before the barricade started, couldn't believe it.

There are no Easter eggs in Germany because my DP bought them all (some were even filled with alcohol and were yummy!) We took them to the woods nearby and did a hunt for them with my 6 yr old daughter.
Medicine Egg - I like it. NHS prescription perhaps?

charleymouse · 17/04/2009 14:30

Cheers Pixi, I had a homebirth with DD but just wondered if there was any reason (other than the CS) like the polyhydramnios that would reduce my chances.
Mars have started looking around locally for a doula to see if it is an option, have a MW apt booked for 27 April where I may be pleasantly surprised will wait and see.
Thanks FG, where does the time go?
Glad you had a good holiday Trips.
Chops do you want me to send an egg, just the thought of them makes me want to heave.
Hope your medicine is working Ruby
