good news about the scan natty, but sorry tom has been a handful. Pity your DH couldn't be there. I hope you feel more relaxed about the pregnancy now as well.

I have been wearing my baby this afternoon . I tried out the baby buddha sling Sputnik. He liked it in the upright position but when I tried to lie him down (womb with a view, lol) he just screamed and screamed, so that one not a success. It all felt very tight and squished up (on account of me being fat and him being massive).

Oh, 1981; the year I started High School, Kajagoogoo were the next big thing, Duran Duran were riding high in the charts, New Romantics were everywhere, and Ra Ra skirts, leg warmers and fingerless gloves were the big fashion statements

I wasn't very clued up in 1981. I had to ask my mum what a ra-ra skirt was. She didn't know. I think that was when I realised that mum's don't know everything.

Jamlet had a little soup at tea time (all she's eaten today) then fell asleep on me. So I took her up to bed at 5.45 and she was asleep by 6. Poor little thing. I fear I may be in for an early start tomorrow though after all the sleep she's had today. Either that or it will be a long and broken night.

OK, got my 2 hours work to do now...

HaveYourselfAJammyLittleXmas · 04/12/2008 18:22

And glad the scan was OK NAtty, sorry should have said that 1st.

Right, really must go back to that work now.

NattyTurkeyAndEggnog · 04/12/2008 18:39

TheTwelveDAISYOfChristmas · 04/12/2008 19:57

Natty, you're the same age as my oldest nephew

Ohforfoxsake · 04/12/2008 20:06

I loved Adam and the Ants.

Budge up under that duvet Natty, need to hide somewhere where they can't find me and make me do more jobs!

Is it OK to wear black to a wedding? In the afternoon. Its a black suit.

NattyTurkeyAndEggnog · 04/12/2008 20:21

can you wear a bright cheerful shirt to offset the black?
where are you all tonight then?

Ohforfoxsake · 04/12/2008 20:25

I have a strapless corset top to go underneath. Don't really do bright and cheerful. The slut in me won't allow it

NattyTurkeyAndEggnog · 04/12/2008 20:30

lmao! well ur not called foxy for nothing

TheTwelveDAISYOfChristmas · 04/12/2008 20:34

I would wear black to a wedding foxy.

lol at your corset; if you have a bit of it peeking out at the cleavage it won't look funereal.

HaveYourselfAJammyLittleXmas · 04/12/2008 20:42

Natty, you are younger than my nephew

Well, work's done (I was working on sewers tonight, living up to my non-seasonal name) and DH has gone to get us pizza from the supermarket as neither of us can be arsed to cook much. Jamlet is whinging a bit, but I just took her up some milk which she didn't have earlier and checked her temp which is now normal, so we had a cuddle and I am hoping she will settle herself soon.

NattyTurkeyAndEggnog · 04/12/2008 20:47

HaveYourselfAJammyLittleXmas · 04/12/2008 20:49

NattyTurkeyAndEggnog · 04/12/2008 20:53

HaveYourselfAJammyLittleXmas · 04/12/2008 21:04

Hey we all like a good moan now and then

HaveYourselfAJammyLittleXmas · 04/12/2008 21:07

Is it just me or has Debenhams got terribly expensive? I've just been looking for inspiration for a Christmas perssie for my nephew and I'm shocked at the prices - even with 20% off!

TheTwelveDAISYOfChristmas · 04/12/2008 21:59

I've been ordering some calendars online, but getting frustrated as I need photos that are on my old laptop.

LittleMissNorty · 04/12/2008 22:08

haven't you got your lap-top any more Daisy?

TheTwelveDAISYOfChristmas · 04/12/2008 22:14

I have a new laptop Norty

NattyTurkeyAndEggnog · 04/12/2008 22:44

ImDreamingOfANortyXmas · 05/12/2008 08:02

Morning all

Sorry, I meant haven't you still got your old lap-top to transfer pics?

Good pic of scan Natty....must be a relief.

Right, work to do....later x

HaveYourselfAJammyLittleXmas · 05/12/2008 09:38

Morning all

I'm having a little quiet time while Jamlet naps. Have just been doing a little bit of crafting and am now planning our weekend - DH is away so it's just us girls. I think we will go meet my Mum and Sister tomorrow - they are on a shopping weekend away not too far from us and my sister suggested we go to meet them, but we haven't told my Mum, so hopefully it'll be a nice surprise for her when we "bump into" them.

TheTwelveDAISYOfChristmas · 05/12/2008 09:44

I do norty. I'm just a lazy bugger and haven't done it yet!

I have mastitis . Feeding was very very painful through the night and when I've had a look this morning I have red lines all over my boob extending from the nipple. Arse wank bollocks as it'll need antibiotics and then I've no hope of getting rid of the thrush, which from my understanding of kellymom, as I haven't had a blocked duct it's likely that that the thrush infection has led to the mastitis. Ever felt like you were on a roundabout and can't get off?

HaveYourselfAJammyLittleXmas · 05/12/2008 09:52

Daisy. You don't have an easy time of it with the BF do you.
