Shall we do a sweepstake (or should that be swipestake) for when pacita will drop? I say Sunday.
We have a packed weekend. Friends for lunch tomorrow. I've been wanting to make a lasagne for ages, so that's what they're getting. The meat sauce has been made and will marinate overnight so it will be even yummier tomorrow. And I'm doing a choice of lemon meringue AND rasberry and white choc tartlets from Ottolenghi's book. Have even made the pastry [smug].
Some good news. Got a brief 'ALL FINE' from the consultant today on my clotting test results. Which is good. So we're just waiting on the chromosome test results which I'm 99.9% sure will come back normal too.
mrsA That's really interesting about your friends not planning on ttc yet. I'm the last in my M&B group of friends to have #2
.
In my NCT group there are two women who are sticking with one for age reasons (they're both in their 40's), so I know if I never manage to have another I won't be the only one I know with one child. One of my best friends has a 1 year old. We were ttc when DS was 1 so I was worried that I'd have to start dealing with pg announcements from friends with DC younger than DS. But she told me that she's not planning on trying for another this year. She's the same age as me and it was very easy for her to conceive her DS so I imagine she doesn't feel the pressure to start soon.
On a completely different topic, DS is addicted to all things electronic: laptop, my iPhone, Leapster... I am a bad mum for enabling this addiction aren't I? Although he has learnt to recognise the word 'Play' in books and when out and about, on top of numbers, letters and family names. So it is sort of getting on the road to reading. We also read to him every night, so we're not completely neglectful.
