For the 8th time...............May Babies!

[egypt]

well hello

Quick at least, Cat. I am glad people are looking after you. Don't be down on yourself - this could happen to any of us.

By the way Kbaby I have made a couple of wedding cakes and so I know how much they cost to produce. How many tiers? I would think £250 was an absolute bargain if it's 3, pretty good for 2. Also depends on intricacy of decor.

Susi LOL at your verbal diarrhoea! 6 posts in a row!

Cat, let me know if there is anything I can do. I am off on Friday and Monday so if you want company then text me. I will leave Reuben at the childminders and come over.

Take care sweetpea, you have made a very hard decision and my thoughts are with you Hugs xx

cat: if you need someone else to hold your hand or afterwards, let me know.

lucas had an upset tummy today and i didn't realise - slept 3 hours before lunch. was up just an hour for lunch and a poo. went down for another 2 hours. up with another full nappy. didn't want his dinner. but woke up in the bath; he just loves it!!! after that another 2 full nappies but he demolished his milk and after quite alot of top/bottom wind he was much brighter again and went to bed fairly easy! poor mite, hope he got rid of everything now

Cat you have big hugs off me too. I can imagine it was a tough choice to make. I hope this week goes quickly for you. Ill be thinking of you.

Ok now dont laugh at my choice of cake. I want a three tier cake but not with tiers, more stacked on top of each other. I want the icing pale pink with Love Heart sweets stuck all over it. I saw it in cosmo bride and think its lush and unusual looking.
susis hope you dd's better

sounds great kbaby. £250 sounds about right as you're saving them a lot of decorating hours! tho shopping around for quotes never hurt anyone...

Hi everyone again,

Libb- thank you, if you're free on friday, it might be nice to meet up. I have a new moby no i will e mail you in a bit.

The sound of your cake cheered me up kababy love the love heart idea.

Susi- See! i told you our lo's were identical! Kiera has been running a temp of 39.2 all day and has been vomitting. On me, the carpet, the sofa, the walls....poor little thing. She's in bed now bless her but hasn't managed to keep any calpol down, so i may wake her to take her temp in a few hours. I was so worried, but the emergency doc i spoke to was wonderful, and reassured me.

sigh my life'll get better won't it?

Take care everyone

morning morning

it's so nice now he can sit up; just sit him somewhere with his toys and he'll keep himself busy for quite some time! just checking now and then that i am around and gives me a big grin

cat: hope kiera is better today! well as ds's twin she should be happy and smiley today - and YES! it'll get easier again!!! you have a wonderful girl, and great dp and good friends - so head up girl!

kbaby: your cake sounds yummy - esp the hearts! love them

Cat sorry to hear this . Glad you are getting lots of support.

Cat .. I missed that totally .. so sorry to hear this darling .. remember you are making the right decision for you and your family and only you and your DP can make that decision .. you have decided it is the right thing .. so that means it IS ... now you just need the strength to face the next few days ... and you will find it .. because you are an amazing woman

{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}

Poor old Keira. I can't believe the amount of stuff that's going around at the moment. Don't know if I'm just more aware now that there is a baby in the family.

Of course it will all get better Cat; things are always changing. You sound like a tough cookie in some ways but I know it's hellish at the moment. It would be a mad old world if things were hellish all the time. Law of averages if nothing else: it WILL get better.

Do we get any news of Egypt's weekend adventures - and her mum's - and her dd's?

Cat - only just seen this now, I've not been online for a few days. You WILL feel better, and you WILL get through this. I'll be thinking of you this week xxx

Spots - much respect for your impeccable spelling of the squits!

don't have time to read whole thread (at work) is this thread for people having babies this May or who have had babies last may?

Hiya, we had our babies last May...so they're about 8 months old now. There is a thread for babies due this May if that's what you need - its probably in the pregnancy/ante natal section. If it is us you are after....well, hello!

hi everyone

Kieras tempteture has come down thank god, and she slept like and angel all night long. We didn't give her any weetabix this morning, just her normal milk which she ate all of, then i tentativly gave her some lunch, which she also ate all of. I was getting really concerened about her temperature, so i'm very relieved!

Thanks for very much for your lovely words of support again, i had a rather wobbly moment yesterday as i was posting, things seemed to be getting TO DAMN MUCH!!! I feel a bit better today, having done alot of cleaning and also desperatly trying to help a freind through a very, very tough situation, it's good to concentrate on something else.

Lots of love
xxxx

cat, so sorry sweetie, but you are doing exactly the right thing by doing what is right for you and your family. i would want to do the same tbh. not so sure my dh would be quite as supportive however, so you are v v lucky xxxxxx {{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}

well........prague, lovely, cobbly, warm!?!, boozy, full tummies and other nice things...mmmm

dd - woke twice the first night, no bitty! washing machine was needed to get back to sleep as nanny obv doesnt have equipment and dd couldnt accept the fact.

second night, woke, cuddled, slept .....happened 3 times

3rd night - yes nanny carried on even though we were home - woke at 1-45, cuddled, slept, woke 5, nappy change, slept, woke 745. looked at mummy and couldnt quite believe she was home. drank a bottle of 8oz - mummy couldnt quite believe this......now is thinking that bf is off the menu.

Oh Fantastic!
My babes is nearly 8 months too. Good to know I can bend some ears perhaps if needed? (very likely)

Brilliant Egypt. sounds like it all went really well. Am quite Hope you get better nights from now on.

And bongobum there's plenty of ear-bending goes on round here so you will be in good company.

thanks Bozza
Hi everyone.

Welcome bongobum

xx

hello bongobum, great name! Croeso(a Welsh welcome).
Egypt glad Prague was good, sounds like she's on the bottle or both now then. Cat82 yes things get better and they will for you. dd1 says I'm a fairy like her, so I should know! Apparently you only see fairies if you believe in them. Ah, to be a child again.
Well, we move in four days and the house is a TIP.
Work is rubbish too, but dd2 started nursery on Monday and despite my tears she seems fine there and the workers in her room are nice and we know all of the other babies in there so that helps.
Chicken nuggets and chips (all ORGANIC!) for tea tonight, can't be a*d to cook.

egypt -have you tried letting her sleep all night long with some kind of white noise? DS has his daytime sleeps with a de-tuned radio next to him (to drown out the noise of DD yammering on downstairs!). It might be that it would help settle her, if the washing machine has helped before.

Welcome Bongobum! This is our 8th thread in aprox 8 months so we do like a matter. Just realised that most of our threads are approx. 500-600 posts long so we average 16-20 posts a day. Personally I blame GeorginaA .

And me, I keep messing up . . .

Hope all will be ok Cat, I know we've no history but am sending you a big cyber hug x
