Luce - dropping children at nursery at 7.30am and I have a meeting at the new childrens centre at 9.15am and picking up from nursery at 12.30pm.

The meeting is about setting up a new twins club for support and help and ideas. We lost the old venue and it has been requested by expectant twins mums (one who had hers last week) and I am the contact as the health visitors think I know what I am doing!!!!! yeah right.

I have being doing home visits to reassure pregnant parents!!!!!

I know you are all laughing - yes if only they knew

anyway Luce the point is I can always call you back if you get me when I am busy

PillockOfTheCommunity · 10/07/2008 20:05

Do you want to take my email Goober?

Goober · 10/07/2008 20:05

Oh joy!

oooggs · 10/07/2008 20:06

we have a sleep room with 12 cots and darkened which is attached to the playroom, and babies can sleep when they want to, the two year olds all rest together after lunch on mats on the floor in their play room - but they all rest together

gm - I don't know - go with your gut feeling

geordieminx · 10/07/2008 20:07

Whats Rhubs up to?

To be honest he doesnt tend to sleep at lunch time anyways. And if I wasnt keen, the new one opens in September so I could change him?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

M's dad really doesn't know when to stop. He's messaging me on facebook at the moment.

asked me if I needed a shoulder to cry on. then if I needed someone to hold me close.
Told him to stop, that I'm upset and need a friend, a shoulder would be welcome but nothing more, unless he wanted to bring me food.
So then he asks if a blow job is out of the question then.

It is good Dooby, means he completed the hole in the recommended number of shots, or something like that!

Hello!

Read thread earlier, can't remember much now and getting fed up of saying that

Elkie and Oooggs hope you're both feeling better and sickness and tiredness eases soon for you.

Lunches - M and N HAVE PACKED LUNCH TUES AND THURS AND SCHOOL DINNERS THE OTHER DAYS WHICH ARE £1.80 oops ahem, £1.80 a day although when M goes to junior school in sept they're more expensive Also have to buy all new school uniform for her and they're much stricter about PE kit and things so going to cost me at least £100 i think And N needs new trousers and some new jumpers as, despite me having bought 4 for him, we only seem to have 1 left 2 'lost' at school and 1 too small.

N is also getting really tired and struggling with school now, never wants to go anymore and really tired and grumpy when he comes home. I think its partly as this has been such a long half term and also the work at school is getting harder now in preparation for yr1. Bearing in mind he's only a couple weeks older than some children who are still at playschool I think hes doing really well bless him. But only tomorrow to go then we're off to South of France on Sunday with all J's family for a week and half. Come back on Tues 22nd and they go in for last day of school on Wed so he only has 2 days left now.

Very excited about holiday (although slight reservations about inlaws but trying not to think about it too much!) but my brain is swimming with all the things I need to buy and do as its pretty much me thinking for 5 people! Also long ferry trips and car journeys and overnight hotel stays there and back to cater for. Should be lots of fun though and looks like weather not going to be too bad (not Jamie's yet ).

Anyway best get to bed, will try and post again before I go but if not I'll miss you all!!!

elkiedee · 10/07/2008 23:48

POTC, at M's dad!

Pisha, ouch at the money for your M's uniform.

GM, it doesn't seem right for a nursery. D's CM has a cot for him, though I've told her that in his case it is fine to leave him in his buggy if that's where he goes to sleep. But that's our decision because we have him sleeping there at home sometimes for daytime naps. If he wakes up in his cot alone he cries, if he wakes up in his pushchair sometimes he checks we're around and goes back to sleep, or if he wakes up he's happier. But I think that's about me and CM talking about D as an individual baby and it doesn't seem right for a nursery to do it. For the cost of childcare I would expect a nursery to pay for the equipment needed for its baby room.

I told my boss today that I'm pregnant, due date and my thoughts about maternity leave, as I need Tuesday afternoon off for my scan/related tests (as first turned out to be too early), and it's not great timing for work but I don't want to change that scan date from 12+1.

Morning everyone

Eddas · 11/07/2008 08:58

oooggs, i just got into work and opened my emails to find an 'are you smarter than a 5th grader' email now where's the answer

ooops, morning everyone

PillockOfTheCommunity · 11/07/2008 09:18

morning

I fell apart last night, explaining to M what was happening today brought it all home and I spent most of the night sobbing after I finished posting on here. (no offence Dippy, but I know I'm feeling lost when I post on the prayer thread!)

Trying to see the positives, I'll have my dad, my brothers and my sister around me, and my brothers' girlfriends are coming too.

I don't very often feel emotions this strongly, I've spent many years blocking things out and putting up barriers, so when I do I don't know how to cope with it. The last time I fell apart like this I had Ange looking after me, and the time before that I had Dippy take me in, so I'm learning my lesson and turning to you guys for support. (I might even accept the odd hug )

On a lighter note, having spent my entire childhood and teenage years trying desperately not to look like my sister (she'd always copy me!), I have seen her this morning, and we have virtually identical haircuts, and skirt suits that are incredibly similar to wear today! Ah well, I guess we're more alike than I realised

but I still need to get trousers, p.e shorts, Football socks, and all the pens and folders etc

am going to look at another school for dd1 and ds2 this afternoon

We should be moving at the beginning of September

Dh's boss reacted much better than expected, and just keeps trying to persuade him to stay.........
