Oooh LWH!! That is very exciting!! How was TBT? You won't regret it at all, it's hard work but the rewards are amazing!!! Her little grin makes up for all the vomcanoes, sleepless nights and meltdowns!!
Some days I still can't believe that she's ours!!!

ShaggingProducesResults · 10/06/2012 18:30

Oh, I'm pretty sure that Sassi was conceived around this time last year.... Spring babies are fab!!!

LookAtHerGo · 10/06/2012 19:07

Oh bebe :( that's sad :( it just doesn't look like you're going to get it if he keeps saying things like this.

Oh quod :( but as you say probably best not at this point in time.

SPR yay great to see you :) I can and can't believe how old she is now. I saw a pic you posted the other day and thought whoa she's in a seat already, wow. Glad the harness worked for her, sorry to hear about the reflux, busy and tough start. Yay to rolling, that's early, E was the same, although a little bit later going front to back I think 17 weeks. She's almost walking, but still prefers to drop to her knees and do a weird crawl. She's 9 months now. I've had a name change because I'm diffed :) yay, I think you'll work it out, if not its only a few posts ago that you'll see :) and lol at vomcanoes.

Harpie, there are a couple of others who go because they are their second babies, so already have an older one, but I'll be the first of the ones on their first! But then most of the others have younger LOs.

ShaggingProducesResults · 10/06/2012 21:36

LookAtHerGo - Yay for the diffment!!! She's very early with all the physical stuff and is incredibly strong. I think that maybe it's related to her having the cord around her neck several times from 20 weeks (ish) and her fighting to get free. I guess I should have known she'd be an active little baby from the amount of moving she did before she joined us!!

She isn't a fan of napping though and still wakes for a feed at night unlike some of her less active friends!!!

I can;t believe that E is 9 months already and walking. How exciting for you!!
I've put a few piccies of Sassi on my profile for those not on FB

Leftwingharpie · 11/06/2012 08:31

Those pictures are marvellous! She is a gorgeous baby. And look at you in the hospital pic post birth you glamorous woman you!

I am now 6dpo, in case any of you can't count (Hmm) and no symptoms.

Leftwingharpie · 12/06/2012 08:34

Oh god I need a TTC thread to hang out on so I don't bore you all to death for however many months this takes. But they're all so big and established and I don't know anybody! [first day at big school emoticon]

Never managed to speak to the useless mortgage broker last night, so we couldn't make our offer on the house. Very disappointing. I know he's there cause he's changed his voicemail from "away until 11 June" to "away from my desk". Any recommendations?

bebejones · 12/06/2012 09:45

Bug him every hour on the hour until he answers your call?! (Although I know DH hates it when his clients do that!! :o)

Bug us every hour on the hour with TTC developments & symptom spotting! I for one need to be 'bored' by it....that way I get to bore y'all to death if when my turn comes! Wink

DD is utterly convinced that she is 'getting a baby' for her Birthday! She told me this morning that the baby can share her room so she can look after them! Hoping she won't be too disappointed come August! :(

SPR - So glad you are back!! :o Sassi is completely scrummy! :) So sorry to hear you've had a rough time of it, but pleased to hear that Sassi is doing well now. DD only had mild reflux but oh. my. word. the projectile vomitting was seriously impressive! Hope that Sassi's reflux starts to improve soon. :)

bebejones · 12/06/2012 11:35

Crying laughing reading this on classics! MN classics always guaranteed to cheer me up! :o

Leftwingharpie · 12/06/2012 17:53

Oh Bebe my heart does go out to you, it must be so hard to hear that from her you must want to say "it's not me it's daddy" but of course you can't. Is she happy with her new room now you've got it sorted? It's sweet of her to want to share.

The thread about the bikini bottoms and the swimming pool is one of my favourites, I never get tired of it! Perhaps it is safer to be not pg and still have my dignity!

We've made our offer now so fingers crossed they accept it!

bebejones · 12/06/2012 18:38

We didn't move her in the end as the wall has dried out! Despite all the heavy rain lately! Confused It's still the plan, but it's not urgent now IYSWIM. Which is good as the 'spare' room needs alot of work to make it fit for her.

When she says things to me I tell her she has to ask Daddy but he just keeps perpetuating (sp?) the myth that we are going to 'get one from Tesco'! Hmm Things financially are pretty crap & I just don't think he can see past it right now, even though he keeps telling me that money is coming next month it feels like plans for everything are on hold until it actually hits our account! (Even plans that are potentially 9 months down the line!!)

Fingers crossed for the offer! When do you expect to hear back?

Leftwingharpie · 12/06/2012 19:23

Hopefully tomorrow although I am going to the spa for the day with my mum, so will be out of contact. Hopefully I won't cook my baby, assuming there is one to cook! I still have no symptoms.

bebejones · 12/06/2012 19:46

If there is one in there it's so far tucked in it'll be fine! Do you think you will tell your mum that you are TTC? Symptoms aren't everything, you read all the time about women who didn't know they were pregnant until 6/7/8/9months...or until baby was coming out!!

Leftwingharpie · 12/06/2012 20:50

Not sure. Probably not. It will be interesting to see if my temperature drops tomorrow. I always stopped temping a few days after OV, once I knew the danger had passed, so I only have two charts that go beyond 7dpo. On both of those my bbt dropped on day 8.

LookAtHerGo · 12/06/2012 21:00

Thanks SPR, :) its v cool. E isn't walking on her own yet, but she's getting there, sorry if I misled you. Who knows it could still be months! E was a real wriggler inside me too, so I wasn't surprised when she was at it so much on the outside :) and yes E still wakes too.

Hey Harpie, easy for me to say, but try to think of other things as well as how many DPO you are, otherwise you'll go mad :) and fwiw so far I'm not really having many symptoms, I could quite easily attribute the vague nausea I felt a little bit to being hungry, the sore boobs to being bitten, the tiredness to the 6 or 7 times I was up to E last night. Good luck with the offer

Aw bebe, it sucks for you. You are so patient and I really hope you get some luck soon.

E is out of sorts, not sure it it's teeth again, she's been snotty, a bit more pooey than normal, and just burst into tears earlier. She has a couple of tiny spots on her back and one on her nose, so I'll be checking in the morning to see she's not got worse in case it's the pox :( probably nothing though.

I do not want to feel poorly, but it's weird feeling fairly normal so far. I hope everything is ok, and I stay feeling just as I am.

Leftwingharpie · 13/06/2012 08:21

Lookathergo don't worry I am spending most of my time obsessing about whether we'll have our offer accepted on the house and if we will have any difficulties with the mortgage!

There must be a lot of difference between a first pg and subsequent pg in terms of time spent naval gazing, symptom spotting, and stuff! It sounds like E is keeping mummy's mind busy with more important things like E! Smile I hope she's not poorly.

Leftwingharpie · 13/06/2012 17:36

Where are you all?? We have bought a house!! Grin

ShaggingProducesResults · 13/06/2012 18:35

Fantastic news on the house!!! Time to pick nursery furniture?!?!

minipie · 13/06/2012 19:09

Woooooo!

linky? is it that nice one you linked to last thursday...

SPR hello! can't believe you have a 3.5 month old... when was it you started ttcing again? my ttcing has finally paid off, I am 14+5 with DC1.

more elephants for Lookathergo Grin

tcha to bebe's DH. hope things improve financially soon.

Leftwingharpie · 13/06/2012 19:33

Harpie's new home

Leftwingharpie · 13/06/2012 20:11

Minipie I am guessing about 12.5 months ago! Grin 14.5? Do you have a photo??

Bebe I was so tempted to tell my DM we are trying but I managed not to!

bebejones · 13/06/2012 21:28

Yay Harpie!! :o Exciting stuff!

Been to DDs (future) school tonight to meet the teachers & get her start dates! All starting to feel very 'real'! My baby girl is actually going to be starting school in 3 months time!!!! Shock

Leftwingharpie · 14/06/2012 06:02

That's exciting Bebe! What's the school like? How big is it? Did you like the teachers?! Will she need a uniform?

Massive temp dip today. Sad

strawberrypie · 14/06/2012 08:21

Congratulations on the house LWH! It looks lovely and ready to move straight into-perfect for the newly pregnant ladies needs!

:( about the temp dip. I charted when I was WTTC and during the month I got pregnant and you could see a triphasic temp pattern which was different to the previous months. However the temp differences are so small anything could give you a duff reading so you never know. It's not over until....etc!

strawberrypie · 14/06/2012 08:32

*Lady's

bebejones · 14/06/2012 08:59

Bum about temp dip Harpie, but like strawberry said, could be a duff reading or something, you never know until you know! IYKWIM!! :o
What's the schedule then for house moving?! :o Bet you can't wait!! Do you have plans to redecorate or are you going to leave it as it is?

School is lovely, it's not huge but it's not a 10-in-a-class village school either. One class of 30 in each year, Church of England school linked to our church, really caring & vibrant. Was an offsted outstanding a year ago, but as with everything they have been 'downgraded' even though nothing has really changed!! Hmm (Offsted being their usually bastards and finding fault where there is none) Children are very polite and seem happy & DD really seems to be excited to go! :) And yes, she has to have a uniform!! Eeeeek, got some bits already, we have to practise putting it on and taking it off apparently so she can do it by herself! Confused Hmm
