Huh...my sister in law's second baby started with period pain and backache...5 hours later she had a baby...

Just sayin'!

Grin
ObviouslyInvisible · 04/09/2012 11:42

5 hours would be perfect Tee! I don't think anything much is happening now though. :(

IamtheZombie · 04/09/2012 17:07

Zombie is patient.

Do you think a Bahamas cocktail would help things along, OI? Zombie will gladly have one for you if so. Grin

ObviouslyInvisible · 04/09/2012 17:50

That's very kind of you Zombie. You're the most generous Zombie I know. Maybe 2 or 3 to really make sure? Grin

DZH · 04/09/2012 18:01

One every 15 minutes until we have mini OI ?? Smile

StateofConfusion · 04/09/2012 18:11

Evening all,

Any change OI?

I think zombie may get mild alcohol poisoning at one every 15minutes DZH but it would help with the whole zombie-ness I spose :)

I have my delightful GTT tomorrow if anyone would like to go for me? I can't eat after 9pm tonight until gone mid-day tomorrow, surely that should be illegal, I'm pregnant food is my best friend!! When I had this test with DD I was a state it made me feel very poorly so I'm totally dreading this.

BonkeyMollocks · 04/09/2012 18:38

Evening.

How are you OI?

Cocktails? Is it rude to steal from a pregnant woman?
Bad day today, feel really down :(

State Whats a GTT? If you don't mind me asking? Hope it goes ok for you :)

ObviouslyInvisible · 04/09/2012 18:56

No change. It'll probably be another 2 weeks yet. :( That will mean one sozzled Zombie!

I feel for you State. I had the GTT (Glucose Tolerance Test Bonkey) with both pregnancies. It's SO boring. I packed sandwiches to have straight after this time, but I wasn't actually that hungry for some reason. Confused

DZH · 05/09/2012 09:18

Guess that I will have to take over the cocktail duty then Grin

EmpressOfTheGoldFlames · 05/09/2012 10:42

I could alternate with Zombie if that would help?

Good luck with the GTT State.

DD loved her first day at secondary. Made all the difference that we managed to get her into the induction week first though, they only had 40 places so we were lucky.

It's my birthday. And DD's birthday (met DW and DD when she was 2). She's gone in with a big 12 badge on. My main present was gym membership and I've just been to yoga class, currently planning to go to gym 3 times a week before work. It might happen.

DZH · 05/09/2012 10:47

Anyone fancy Sex on the Beach ???

OI is excluded of course cos that is what got her in her current state Grin

Tee2072 · 05/09/2012 11:15

ARGH! Why oh why do I always do something wrong when I make pizza dough?!?

Last time, my water was too hot and I boiled my poor yeast. It rose, but not as much as usual.

Today, I forgot to put in the sugar! It's still rising but I hope the olive oil is enough food for the poor little yeast.

ObviouslyInvisible · 05/09/2012 11:31

Happy Birthday Empress and your DD!

Due date today!!

DZH, can you mix me up an alcohol-free cocktail with lots of pineapple juice please? It might get things going!

Hope the GTT goes well today State.

And I hope your pizza dough turns out ok Tee. I'm looking forward to a slice. Grin

EmpressOfTheGoldFlames · 05/09/2012 11:41

Thank you OI Grin

Hope your baby comes today, it's a very good birthday to have.

StateofConfusion · 05/09/2012 11:42

Happy birthday Empress and you dd

Common mini oi its your eviction date... Grin

Ill have a virgin pina colada DZH

Its the glucose tollerance bonkey starve for 12hrs, have bloods, drink glucose drink, 2hrs waiting, more bloods. They see how my body processes sugar to check for gestational diabetes.
Fortunatly they have now changed the drink from the vile clear syrup I drank when pg with dd, it was like flat coke with a bit of a weird taste to it, drank it quickly and it wasn't too awful, our hospital got the new solution in May and it made such a difference for me, I'm off now to eat a lot of sandwiches!!

EmpressOfTheGoldFlames · 05/09/2012 11:45

Thank you State Grin Enjoy the sandwiches!

Tee2072 · 05/09/2012 12:46

Happy birthday Empress and to your daughter! Grin

I think my dough is okay. Too bad I just realized I forgot to buy cheese....that's a trip to the shops after nap time, yeah?

StateofConfusion · 05/09/2012 15:20

I meant *your dd, upthread, my typing is horrendous these days!

My sandwiches were great thanks Grin dp even got me a custard doughnut! 3rd baby and he's now learnt how to keep me happy Grin

Ooh tee you've reminded me I keep meaning to make pizza dough again I did it loads at our old house and the dc loved it.

Well my ds starts yr1 tomorrow, he's anxious as he's been seperated from friends --cheers idiot school-- and he loved his teacher last year. So I know one or both of us will cry tomorrow!

BonkeyMollocks · 05/09/2012 20:27

Happy birthday Empress and to your dd too :)

I am starting to dislike this thread, everyday there is mention of new food, I am meant to be on a diet!!

BonkeyMollocks · 05/09/2012 20:28

OI Baby???

State Glad it wasn't too bad for you! And yay to dp for learning that pg women like dohnuts! Grin

ObviouslyInvisible · 05/09/2012 20:50

Thanks Bonkey, need all the help I can get I think!

No baby yet. Back ache and period pain all day though. Come on baby!

StateofConfusion · 06/09/2012 10:10

:(

Ds sobbed and sobbed this morning, I officially feel like the worst mum ever, ended up with his teacher having to cuddle him so we could leave, he was begging me to take him home. I fucking HATE that school for mixing the classes up. And now I'm home the neighbour has chavFM on full blast so I can hear her 'music' word for word in every room of my house

BonkeyMollocks · 06/09/2012 10:18

He will be ok. Why did they mix up the classes?

Do we need cake?
