mj - what a nasty lady

welcome home runny

I also hate party bags and we did

  • a Mr Man/Little Miss Book (bought the sparkly set off red house)
  • piece of birthday cake
  • a humzinger (fruit stick thingy)
  • marshmellow stick

all in a paper bag with string handles and that was it

Sexonlegs · 20/05/2008 21:05

Hi loves

Welcome back Runny Good luck with WW tonight.

CD, hope you feel better soon. x

SPB, poor T - he has been through it hasn't he poor lamb.

Oooggs, sounds a good party bag too.

B totally back to normal thanks for asking.

I am wondering if it was a bug or not. She has had no d, and it just lasted a few hours. Hope it isn't a bug to be passed around. I am so hopeless with it all Apologised to B in fact for being so utterly crap at dealing with her last night.

Going to bed soon. A shattered.

Doobydoo · 20/05/2008 21:07

SOL,Glad things are on the mendDon't be too hard on yourself.I am no good with Mucous
Goodnight all

cazboldy · 20/05/2008 21:55

hello

horses had the dentist this morning and all ok! and bryn had his booster jab....

Molly has her re-scheduled men c and hib jab in the morning, but has had a few runny nappies due to 4 big teeth coming through! she is fine in herself though, so should be ok? right?

Dippy and MJ, really sympathise with the MIL thing

only had a skim through, so don't know what else to say!

elkiedee · 21/05/2008 07:52

Morning all, think I caught up last night but not sure how much I have retained, a couple of important things.

Bramshott, really sorry to hear about your grandad.

And MJ, I'm sad to hear both that you're ill and that your dh wasn't being as understanding as he should be, but what a bitch your MIL is. Not an excuse but perhaps he's reacting to that stress badly too.

elkiedee · 21/05/2008 07:57

I have some big news of a rather scary kind, as in how am I going to cope? Or I should say how are we going to cope? That's dp and me.

I tested last week but it was negative (sad) but I still felt a bit strange and my period didn't come. I made a bit of a mess of yesterday morning's test and it was positive but thought I'd better redo it for reliability.

6 weeks today, due date if it sticks is 13 January. Have only told dp and will try to limit telling rl people until first scans etc, probably until 10-12 weeks depending on symptoms and showing. (I wasn't very well but didn't show much until 7 months first time round).

Oooggs is thrilled for you too!

PillockOfTheCommunity · 21/05/2008 09:15

Elkie - Pesha says it will be hard with 2 so young but the 2nd is much easier and you'll probably be more relaxed with it

PillockOfTheCommunity · 21/05/2008 09:25

Octo sends her congratulations
