Our new place to chat about our beautiful toddlers! Where have our babies gone???

[KLou111]

Another thread girls, can't believe we're here already!

Ha ha, yes that house
Can't wait to see it without all the shit!!
We've got this midweek at bluestone for £199 hence we booked it, centre parcs is so expensive! We've got free tickets into an elf wonderland or whatever it's called too, so that's saved us about £70
Can't wait now, although could do with not going away now as robs going to be spending most of his time working now trying to rent our house out!!

So, I have a little news. Not getting too ahead off myself yet but I've not spotted again, so I caved in last night and did 2 tests, one at 5ish and one at 7.30ish and I got a really really really faint line on both.
I can't tell the colour though so not sure if evap lines.
So frustrating!! 10dpo today and got the same this morning
Hope this is it!!!

Glad violets potty training going well, we've given up for the moment!

Glad Violet is ok liz lol at visiting all the toilets tho. Do you have to bring a fair few changes of clothes when you go out?

Oooohhh choc whispering congrats!! You should try and take a piccy for us
Yippee about moving before Christmas!! Bet you are so excited.

Had a day to myself yesterday and it was lovely

Done a superdrug test and neg :(

maybe you need to wait a few days and test again? Was it the internet cheapies you got a line on?

Yes, bloody things. Done another superdrug one and bfn :(
I'm not out yet though!!
I didn't get a positive til 5 days after pink spotting last time, so that would be Sunday, so everything is crossed!

How are you both? Not long til you finish I wish!!!!

OMg choccy!! I shall keep my fingers crossed for you, really hope this is it this month :) bloody annoying about the indecision from the tests. You must be crawling the walls!

I'm so jealous about your holiday, I would love that. Are you staying in one of them little apartment type things? Take plenty of pics!!

Wat did you do on your free day iwish? Not Trafford centre again!! :)

I've it a free day at the end of nov, this Sunday Chris is going racing, then he's of on his lads hol mon to fri, then racing again Sunday so I have said the Sunday after is my day! In thinking of going to Bicester but not sure if to go the evening before cause its quite away. Not sure tho.

Still potty training, yesterday was the first day ith no accidents at all. I take 2 spares when we go out. Just pants and leggings. I have been quite lucky tho as the last couple of poo accidents have been quite solid, so I have been able to just pick it out of her pants, wipe her up nd wipe the pants and not had to totally change her!

I have no fingernails at all!!

Good on violet!! Wow no accidents, must've clicked then! Just the poo and she's sorted . Clever clever girl!
What are you doing at night with a nappy?

Day offs are wonderful! I've got a day off today too, going to lunch with my friend who got married in France recently. Going to a Chinese buffet and canny wait

She knows we're ttc too, as is she so I can have a good ole moan!

Wow the bedrooms lovely!! All that storage space!! And yes lovely pram, so you have a blanket for the car seat? I had a brillian one, I can't bloody remember the name, it was a waterproof fleece lined one that had Velcro to attach to sides, but also a zip and toggle so ou could adjust the size and fit to anything, baby carriers, bike sears, anything. God I can't remember the name!!!

Good day choccy!!???? :D

Bundle bean, that's what it was called, think it was £30 ish, but worth every penny

I want to show you this blanket so am going to attempt a link! Hold on

www.binxie.com/car-seats-carriers/bundle-bean-5-in-1-waterproof-fleece-blanket-pink/?gclid=CPypyq602LoCFUqWtAodFVUAtw

I've got a normal blanket for the car seat and something that's like a big fleecy sleeping bag but can be used in the car seat. That one looks fab on the link! Might have to invest in one of those for the pushchair bit. It looks like a cosy toes but better!

Yeh she's got a bigger bedroom than Joshua lol (cruel mummy) I figured girls have more crap tho so left Joshua in the smaller room.

How's your weekend been up to now?

How are you choc?

Have you told Rob yet? Or have you tested again?

God I'm so tired. Awake in pain with SPD. Then nick wakes me up about 6 times snoring. Joshua makes so random cry twice in the night but goes strait back to sleep.
My head is banging!

Yes I told him yesterday . And both the parents too. Just out at the mo, will give you the low down when I get back.
Just off to take euey to rugger and tell robs brother

Have you managed any rest today iwish? Sounds crappy. What have ?ou done this weekend?

We went to the Lincolnshire life museum, got there it was closed, closed on Sunday's from oct, which peed me off. Then went to an ice cream place for dinner, which was drops and half closed, ( they have s little play area and pets corner which was closed), so came home nd went to soft play place which violet loved, I'm sure last time we went she wasn't so agile and now she can climb and go in the big bit, she loved it. Then just to see a friend and that's it.

Well choccy, how are you??? Any news??

Nope no rest today liz. No rest ever tbh lol. We went to feed the ducks at a lake near us then had some chips and drinks there and relaxed, it was lovely. This afternoon I've cleaned and tidied the house and sorted a bit more stuff in baby's bedroom.

Fancy them being closed on a Sunday when kids are not at school??? You can understand them shutting on a Monday or something.

How was your day choc?

Evening ladies!
Sorry, I've been at my parents for dinner, then Euey bed, then been on the phone to my friend for an hour and a half as robs out, and only just got off the phone!

Right. Yesterday after my faint line I did another test at about 10am and got a line straight away.
Rob had just had a phonecall from his brother (lorry driver) to say he was coming past near our house and did rob and Euey want to join him going back to the yard in the lorry, pick up his car and drive back. Told rob to go, not realising it was like in 15 mins.
Anyway, didn't want to tell him as he was rushing out the door, so waited for him to get back.
Within 10 mins, he was making a cuppa, I got Euey into his 'I'm going to be a big brother' shirt and went downstairs.
I said Euey show daddy your new shirt, and rob saw it and said really? with a big smile. Then he said I knew you were, I had a feeling this month. I'd already said about me not spotting etc that morning as we were lying in bed with Euey, and he said oooo so we could have a baby in there then . and that was that. He said he's actually more excited this time as he was more nervous last time due to the unknown, whereas this time he knows what's coming!

So, later on my parents were busy til 5.30/6 helping my brother decorate so we went to robs parents, got there and his dad had buggered off to the pub in another village to watch the rugger!
So anyway we told his mum by showing her Eueys shirt and she was just so gobsmacked. Finally 2.5 hours later his dad came home and did the same to him, but we had to rush off as had to see my mum and dad too.
Did the same with them too, and they're all thrilled. Mum said she picked up on something I said about sell Euans pram to buy another one a few weeks ago (it was actually for him, not the baby!) and she wondered why we'd want to get another pram.
Anyway, they told my brother as he's living there while he's doing his house, and today I saw him and said congrats etc.
And earlier went to tell rob bro and sil, and they're really happy too (esp as they don't seem to be able to conceive after 5 or 6 years!)

Am just soooooo excited now. And we're going to find out the sex this time too . I'll be 10 weeks on 23rd dec, and I was speaking to mum about telling people then and she said if you want to tell people now, just tell them. Yes you're meant to wait, but it's up to you. Going to see if I can get my scan before new year.
AND I am so having a home birth!

Can't believe this is all happening! I thought a few months ago Euey would be an only child, now I'm preggars!!!

And liz, how stupid that place was shut pah!

Not long now iwish!

Ys not many people do keep it quiet nowadays, I don't think it really matters, if ?ou want to shout it from the rooftops, go for it!

I understand robs feeling more excited this time, before it was all just so new, and now you know. And if I remember rightly you was a proper hard nut in labour! You will sail through a home birth :)

I can't believe it! It doesnt seem 2 mins since we were all having Euan, Joshua and violet!

Bet the lines are getting stronger now choc? And you are v brave going for a home birth. Or maybe I'm just a wuss lol. We went for a hospital tour yesterday cos they have changed our hospital and it looks nice now, they have a midwife led bit too.
If you wanted to see baby before you told everyone at Christmas you could always go for a private scan, they aren't so expensive. Not many people keep it a secret these days anyway like liz said.

I can remember when we were all in labour last time, can't believe it was 2 years ago!

How are you liz?

Got a midwife appt Tuesday next week and I'm sure they are going to say baby is breach. I keep feeling hiccups up near my belly button but a few weeks ago I could feel them right down in my pelvis.
Had a day to myself again yesterday while Joshua was at nursery, was lovely and I didn't get out of bed till 12:30. But I paid for it as I was awake at 3:00 this morning and couldn't get back to sleep so I feel knackered lol.

How am I???? Bloody don't know if I'm coming or going!!!! This week I've been at work all day, every day apart from wed morn, at work all day tomorrow, mums been picking the kids up and having them till i get back from work. All cos Chris is in benidorm. I can't remember if I told you he was going, went Monday, comes back tomorrow, that's why I've had to be st work all the time.

Plus violets been poorly again, cough came on bad on Tuesday, was up quite bit tues and wed night. She's not been so bad today it seems to be slot worse at night, I rang nursery today to see if she was ok as she was quite poorly in the night, but she was fine, and she's settled ok tonight.

Hospital sounds nice iwish, I don't get what's the difference between midlife led?

I hope she's not breech. Keep our fingers crossed.

How are you choccy? Enjoying your holiday? Looks like your having a lovely time

Flipping eck you are having a busy week you poor thing! Bet you can't wait to get back home. Are you working today too?
How is Violet today? Poor little girly.

The midwife led bit means there are no doctors. So no epidural and it's all birth balls and beanbags etc. I'll go there first and see what happens lol. Might end up in theatre again like I did with Joshua but I'd hope not.
Yes pls keep your fingers crossed, I'll be 34 weeks on Monday so getting a bit less time for her to turn eek!

Yes at work today all day too, he comes home this afternoon, he better have got me a good present.

Violet seems to be getting better, she's still coughing, sounds like she's got a load of fleghm oh her chest, but she's not coughing so bad.

You've got plenty of time for her to move, they can just turn anytime, just spend Loads of time on your hands and knees!! She probably will move again if she's spent majority of he time head down, she's just seeing what it's like head up!
