fury, you aren't offensive...just forthright and straight talking . I like it, it's very refreshing. And don't bugger off ya hear.

Thanks BZ! As holly succinctly out it, "who would've thunk it". DH is miffed as most blokes get jiggy with their wives loads of times when trying to get pg.....he just does it once in three months, not even trying, and look what happens. I think he was also looking forward to the drought being over as well....ah well; maybe i'll just buy him some porn

My bumgenius arrived this morning; they are truly a thing of beauty. she isn't going in them today though; the cat food is working it's way out of her system and her arse is caustic. three nasty meaty smelling poos so far today. I very nearly chucked up!

Off to baby group.

Keeping fingers crossed for DH; his interview is at 11:00

Daisy, at last, my BG preaching has proven fruitful!

My DS is odd. He is addicted to spinach, mushrooms and fish.. any fish. His fav food, he goes crazy for them. I will remind him of this when he is six and refusing to eat anything except pizza fingers.

HellHathNoFury · 29/02/2008 10:38

ok I won't go away and reflect on my poor manners...
But I sure am feeling it today! I seem to have a knack for upsetting people!

I said to my sister that whilst I don't mind cooking a thai banquet on mothers day, it's my mothers day too and I was kind of hoping to have someone wait on me for a change - to which she responded 'oh right so I should be punished for being childless should I!?'

(she is having IVF #2 next week. Shoulda kept my gob shut and cooked the damn dinner)

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 29/02/2008 10:46

Oh dear fury! Hope it works out for your sis and I can see why she is a bit sensitive, but it doesn't take away from the fact that it is YOUR day and you deserve a break and a rest too.

I think that with children it's a case of once a good eater always a good eater (well in most cases anyway). My dd has always been a little piggy! Most children her age at a party will be off playing and running around. She will be sat at the table scoffing as much food as she can get her hands on! Hopefully your ds will be the same, it is a joy to watch children loving he food you cook them...I'm not holding out much hope for ds though! All he seems to want to eat is Organix fruit pots!

Have fun at baby group daisy. Hope dd's botty is better soon!

ROFL at the porn!

"Shame I can't fix what's going on down below though. Never mind." Fury

BumperliciousNeedsaGlassofWine · 29/02/2008 11:03

Oh, just read back and realised, sorry I'm terrible for skim reading!

Hope it stops soon. Have you had that before?

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 29/02/2008 11:12

Are you having a nice day bumper?

Fury, I think you should phone NHS direct and see what they say. What pill are you on? When I was on Cerazette I bled every two weeks, it was seriously annoying!

I can't find my farking key ! I'm supposed to be meeting a friend in town at 1.30, but I shan't be going anywhere if I can't find my key. Why can't I be organised?

HellHathNoFury · 29/02/2008 11:23

mum told me to call NHS direct too

I am on yasmin - never had a problem with it, I started bleeding mid cycle about 4 days ago, it's just getting heavier. I look like shit at the moment.

It doesn't hurt too bad though... but I am feeling very drained.

If I am still bad tomorrow I will give them a call!

Holly I hope you are right! I love DS chomping down my grub that I cook him!
Last night I made pasta with bacon, mushrooms, chicken and spinach and he munched it all down! I hope he always likes to eat properly and stays away from shit. Hopefully though because we don't eat takeout...like, ever... he never will prefer it.
Before I sound all self-righteous - I LOVE takeout and junk food - it's just when I go shopping I get addicted to buying the veg and when I get home I realise I have enough veg to fill an allotment and I have to use it up...which means we never get takeout!

BumperliciousNeedsaGlassofWine · 29/02/2008 11:28

Fury, maybe pick up some iron supplements too, spa tone is the best. I hope you get to have a nice day on Sunday. DH is working so it won't be a lazy day for me either!

Holly my day is postponed and DH is languishing in bed!

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 29/02/2008 11:30

We get a pizza or an Indian once a month, or maybe even less, and never get ready meals, so although my dd eats a lot I know exactly what she is eating and that she isn't eating crap!

Hmmm...fury I think you should prob phone NHS direct today. I've used Yasmin before and you shouldn't get any bleeding with it. It sounds a little odd. Hope you are ok. Eat some good quality dark chocolate, for the iron of course!

AAARRRGGGHHH!!! WHERE'S MY FUCKING KEY?

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 29/02/2008 11:38

HURRAH!! Found it! It was in one of the plastic tub bits on the front of the changing table ! I think my dd may have been involved in that!

HellHathNoFury · 29/02/2008 11:42

mmmm I'd love a pizza or indian takeout

We go out maybe once a month to a little chinese place but that's it.
As long as they aren't living on crap hey!

HellHathNoFury · 29/02/2008 11:48

hmm after all that I am off to the pub for lunch with the lads!
So DS might not eat shit but I do!
Have a nice time with your mate Holly!

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 29/02/2008 11:50

Thanks, she is pg, due in a couple of weeks, so we are baby shopping and having cake! It's gonna be wild!

Have a lovely pub lunch, mmm chips and beer!

I forgot to say earlier good luck to dh with interview daisy!

HellHathNoFury · 29/02/2008 11:57

I am the only girl in a team full of lads, we have fun - one of them sent me an email yesterday saying 'At the risk of getting sacked for sexual harrassment again, I think you are fanciable'
!!!!

HellHathNoFury · 29/02/2008 11:58

(it was the 'again' bit that shocked me, of course I am fanciable

milkyJammy · 29/02/2008 14:55

We have just been to the library. Now tell me, am I just filthy minded to think "phnark phnark " when reading the line "touch the fire fighter's hard helmet" in the DK touch and feel fire engine book?

OP posts:
milkyJammy · 29/02/2008 14:58

And why did my brain add the word "shiny" next to "hard"?

OP posts:
milkyJammy · 29/02/2008 15:00

And why on the shelf labelled "supernatural" were there books about Jewish customs, Hinduism and Buddhism? And one about terrorists? Ah - it must be because terrorists have supernatural powers!

LardyMardyDaisyBoo · 29/02/2008 15:14

pmsl jammy, you filthy minded sod!

fury, I only had a quick skim of the new posts earlier and didn't notice about your problems "down below". Get thee to the doctors lady. You might just need a different type of pill. The stuff with your sister must be difficult. When I got pregnant with DS, my MIL made sure I knew about my BIL and SILs problems with conceiving. It made me feel awful that they were going through this really tough time, and there I was not even wanting to be pregnant. I can understand that she is maybe a bit super sensitive about it, but she has to realise that you didn't have a baby just to spite her, and that it is "your" day as well. Fingers crossed for her though that she will get her own Mother's Day soon enough.

bumper, have you had a nice day, even though your "me" day was cancelled?

We decided we were off to the local curry buffet for Mother's day tea. One of my friends called earlier and has invited her and her DCs along (her DH is working on their impossible inappropriate family vehicle). We do it as a regular thing with her and her family, but I really wanted it to be just us as a family, which is why I hadn't mentioned it to her before. Ah well, we can do the family thing another time, and DS will enjoy himself more with his little mates there as well.

I broke down in tears at baby group this morning when I was talking to one of the Health Visitors . farking hormones!

milkyJammy · 29/02/2008 15:23

Aw Daisy - I'd forgotten about the hormones!

OP posts:
BumperliciousNeedsaGlassofWine · 29/02/2008 16:11

Daisy I still do that at baby groups and I have no such excuse

Fury I am at that email, not at him fancying you, but at sending it in the first place and being sacked for sexual harassment! What precipitated it? Is he cute?

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 29/02/2008 16:52

Ooo daisy, I did that to the HV when I told her I was pg with ds! Blinking hormones! Hope you are ok xxx

Had a lovely day shopping with my friend. She is going to be very pfb I can tell! She kept buying really unneccessary things, I did try and tell her not to buy them, but she did anyway! Oh well she'll learn!

ROFL at your work mate fury! That is very funny and flattering, in a strange way! Is he a fitty?

Jammy, you are filth !

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 29/02/2008 17:00

Can someone tell me I'd be mental to buy this for my dd? It is shit and really thin and disgustingly expensive, but all the best things are! I have a £69 gift card to spend, so it wouldn't actually cost me anything, but surely I can find a more useful item to spend my ill gotten gains on? Non?

milkyJammy · 29/02/2008 17:29

I'd be getting one of these Holly.
