It's probably obvious but what does NFN baby mean please? Blush

And I know what you wrt toddlers driving you to distraction state. And I'm not even hormonal! Grin

I hope they stay in the car for our entertainment do sort out their housing issues though! Grin

StateofConfusion · 20/04/2012 21:01

Normal For Norfolk.

and having lived here almost a year, on my estate atleast, concieving in a car is NFN.

Here i would like to express ds, dd and dc3 were NOT concieved in a car, im born and bread the other side of the border, im naice Grin --hahaha totes fit in--

Really is time for the CTV

GravyHadALumpyMashBaby · 21/04/2012 22:53

Oh ok, not very obvious then!
I've never got to car thing really. But then Dh is quite a big lad and our car is hardly spacious! Grin

LadyBabsWalthamCuddles · 23/04/2012 17:48

Sorry, I meant NFN as Normal for Norfolk as in, a while ago, we were speculating that OG and OB were brother and sister.

So if they had a baby, it would be Normal for Norfolk Grin

LadyBabsWalthamCuddles · 23/04/2012 17:59

State, what's occuring? are they still there?

ovaltine · 24/04/2012 16:33

stop playing pottermore and update us

StateofConfusion · 26/04/2012 21:03

Sorry, I've completed pottermore so im back.

I have also got pregnant in the time ive spent away Grin of course this is all in the name of research so i can attend antenatal clinics and check on NFN baby. See how far i will go for you all.

Well the car spent 3 days there... we didnt see OB or OG once, then they were in it for around 4hrs, now they are gone again. We have seen OG at the local primary school a few times.

Congratulations!

ovaltine · 26/04/2012 21:09

congratulations state thats lovely news :) now no more climbing on your windowsill to spy...

NaiceAm · 26/04/2012 21:15

Congratulations! Will you a la Beckhams be naming the child Mercedes, Astra or perhaps the more exotic cinquecento? ;-)

covermeup · 26/04/2012 22:59

Congratulations!! I kind of guessed from your 'DC3' comment last week but wanted to wait for you to announce properly!

StateofConfusion · 26/04/2012 23:13

Thank you all.

Dp joked that if cargate is still happening in December we have to think of names for BMW initials, oh how I laughed.

Well, it seems they are back, dp randomly moved ds' bedroom around so now if I'm quiet I can nose outside without climbing anywhere, clearly he was thinking of keeping me safe --not stopping ds from scratching the wall and creeping the neighbours out--

We think they're only sat there this evening as they've come for a visit and its raining too hard for them to brave getting out of the car. Like me and dd did for 35minutes today :)

LadyBabsWalthamCuddles · 26/04/2012 23:39

Congrats again State,

Oh how I'm glad they're back to keep me entertained while DC are ill and I'm running on NO sleep (Sorry I digress)

have you seen the child(ren) that OG picks up?

Hebiegebies · 26/04/2012 23:55

You miss so much in a few days. Emmerdale has nothing in this

StateofConfusion · 27/04/2012 00:03

No lady ds is in reception which has its own area entirely with nursery, so we cant see the older years classes at all, and with the horrendous rain we've had hanging around hasnt been an option, its been more of a 'ds, hood up now RUUUUUUUN' affair.

As the weather improves i will dither more at the school gate.

If any action occurs out front dp should catch it, he has a veg patch in the front garden and has been tinkering in his mini green house i got him! So he's always out there, and if it rains he retreats to the garage --which gives a better view--

OP posts:
LadyBabsWalthamCuddles · 27/04/2012 00:18

How come you're still up? but ...

At least he has his MN spying sorted, did you buy him thhe green house so he would spend time outside spying for us?

StateofConfusion · 27/04/2012 07:49

I'm a terrible night owl lady and years of feeling like a zombie everyday have done nothing to change it, plus I always slept on my front but pregnancy symptoms stop that so I have trouble falling asleep! Rest assured I was actually in bed mning.

I think the cars still there this morning, can't see clearly round a van!

OP posts:
ovaltine · 27/04/2012 08:54

How far are you state? I also sleep on my belly. I managed to do it til about 18 weeks! But weirdly not between weeks 8-12.

LadyBabsWalthamCuddles · 27/04/2012 09:34

Fair enough, I sleep on my front too (when DC permit it) and did it for a while while pg (can't remember how long though)

StateofConfusion · 27/04/2012 10:50

I'm 7 weeks, its the nausea stopping me, same as if dd is on my lap and leans back. I managed with the help of A LOT of pillows to remain almost on the front the whole way through with ds.

They weren't there when I left for school today :(

OP posts:
ovaltine · 27/04/2012 11:48

Urgh i hated being pregnant especially at the beginning as got hyperemesis. I dont know how anyone copes with it in general when you have other kids as it makes you so bloody tired. Make sure you put your feet up lots :)

StateofConfusion · 27/04/2012 13:38

Its not too bad this time, ds in ft school and dd is 3.5 and pretty independant --has to do things her way so its easier to leave her to it-- I was pregnant with dd when ds was 7mnths old so this seems easy! Had a mmc in december too so I could puke all day long and not care, but so far things have been easier.

Not been home yet so can't update, ill check in later x

OP posts:
LadyBabsWalthamCuddles · 27/04/2012 13:53

Oh no, I hope they haven't left us again.

I fell pg with DS when DD was 3mo, was the hardest thing I've ever had to do. Glad you're finding it easier this time

StateofConfusion · 27/04/2012 13:58

lady would have been easier if it weren't for others comments, I lost count of the "do you need a double buggy" we ds learnt to walk 6wks before she was born in november so kinda yes!!! I was 20 when dd was born aswell so got judged for that!

Will be interesting to see how ill be treated by hcp this time!

The age gaps worth it now, they're very close :)
