Dippyschool unicorn[fab]

SOL, I meant to ask how your mum's doing? Sorry if you mentioned on the last thread and I missed it

dooby I like the sound of that 10 Jan 7lb12oz

ds1 was 7lb 14oz at 36+4 weeks
dts were 6lb 14oz & 7lb 14oz induced at 38 weeks

Elkie is going to have a february baby at 7lb 15oz

bloody hell dippy - that would be huge and sol isn't much better

I am still having pains so it could be 8 Jan, early morning 7lb 2oz

Hi all

Dippy - M has lost her school cardigan too, several weeks ago in fact. and of course it wasnt the cheaper onne with no school logo (still a tenner mind!), nor the second hand one from Freecycle with the button missing but the new proper one that cost me nearly £15 And N has lost his PE jumper, I only found out when he bought PE kit home for washing at christmas and he tells me he hasnt had it for ages, I do hope they've been letting him wear his normal school jumper for outdoor PE and the poor little boy hasn't been left shivering in just a t-shirt!

And thats the most interesting thing I have to say! Am feeling ever so tired and cold, still don't think I'm properly over the bug I had as I really am struggling with the most mundane things atm Think I will have to be off to bed early tonight

I'm still hoping this baby won't be as overdue as the first one as I'd sooner avoid being induced again. I also hope as despite being overdue D was only 7 lb 7 oz ds2 won't be so huge.

I preferred being induced to my natural start labour

I hope it is all done and dusted quickly, painfree and soon elkie

Forgot to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY RUNNY!!!!!

Dylan has just been sick everywhere Has hardly eaten a thing all day so I did wonder if something was up. Think he may have my bug Poor sausage.

Sorry Dylan sickHope he ok now.
Happy Bday Runny
I am 40 in July
Read on calendar today that 40 is the 40 is the old age of youth!So that cheered me up
Night all.x

Happy Birthday Runny! Have been meaning to type that all day!

Pesha, hope D is better soon.

Dooby, I am 40 next July

Right, need my bed. See you tomorrow xx

Happy birthday, Runny.

I am going to bet on oooggs & Elkie having their babies simultaneously on 19th Jan .

Hun, you sound between a rock and a hard place especially with the medication dilemma. Really feel for you.

Eddas - you should go for a Geordieminx-cut. It looks fab in RL, very stylish.

What will you do for your 40th SOL?

Hello everyone.

Oooggs - 9th Jan 7lbs 14oz
Elkie - 29th Jan 7lbs 8oz

Oh and the talk of birthdays I'm going to be 30 in February!

Ellie - Sorry you're having such a bad time. Really hope something can be sorted out.

Pesha - Hope D is better today.

Forgotten everything else.

Morning!

I'll go for:
Oooggs, 14 Jan (N's birthday)
Elkie, 30 Jan

I am crap at guessing weights! January babies are so nice - I think this every year - it really takes the gloom away from the post-christmas period to have a birthday to look forward to! Although remind me I said that next week when I am tearing my hair out trying to make a princess crown cake with ice cream cornets on!!

Caz - thanks for your advice on my other thread! Feeling a bit better about it today.

Are they Clarks doodles plimsolls Eddas? I've found that N needs a much bigger size in those than her normal shoe size as they're an odd shape - very flat towards the end of the foot. I'm going to try to get her a different pair next time, but I haven't yet found anywhere in town except Clarks who do them.

Arggh, what am I going to get my stepdad for his birthday??? Need to sort it this morning!

What's your stepdad into?

Medieval organs!

Hey ladies

Hope everyone is ok!

CMHAYP, Hope the hospital appointment goes ok!

Oooggs - 14/1/09 - 7lb 7oz
Elkidee - 1/2/09 - 8lb 4oz

Eddas - thank you for kind comments re my hair! I go through phases of loving it, and then hating it and wishing it was long! TBH it is very easy to do, I'm lucky that I only have to wash hair every 3/4 days, then dry, run straighteners through it an apply a bit of "funky" gum stuff - 10 mins start to finish! It does need cutting every 4 to 5 weeks though which is a pain - and expensiv at £45 a time

Lots of exciting things going on here - mainly I have enrolled at University to finish off my degree that I started 6 years ago - Business and Management, then after that I plan on doing a years post grad to become...... (((((whispers)))))) a teacher!! Very exciting/scary - its a complete change from telecoms, but hopefully should be a positive move, and will tie in with C starting school/childcare stuff. Its 2 nights a week which is going to be hard going, plus all the work, but hopefully will be worth it!

C also has his first model casting this afternoon for McKays (((((proud mummy))))

Oooh C is a model !

Happy Birthday for yesterday Runny xx

I am going for Ooogg 12th Jan 7lbs 9oz

Elkie 31st Jan (my anniversary) also 7lbs 9oz

Charlie was that weight and was my biggest!

sorry Oooggs

7lb 9oz caz sounds ideal - my biggest was only 7lb 14oz!!!!

all my children have been born on thursdays!!!!

seeing m/w this afternoon - still in pain

oh get her to poke around a bit, and start things moving..... or get dh to sort you out I know which I prefer and it always works for me

Bramshott!!! I just spat my tea out all over my desk when I read about your stepdad's "Medieval Organs"

Have you got one of those really mad dusty old bookshop near you? Could you have a little rummage to see if they have anything on this esoteric weirdness that he is into!!!?

Alternatively, I always find M&S vouchers seem to go down rather well for men of a "certain age"

Yes Oooggs, get her (or him ) to have a good rummage to get things going ......

No, no Dippy this sort of thing!

Actually a dusty bookshop is not a bad idea, and would have the undoubted benefit that I could put it off until tomorrow when I am in town !

evening

bramshott, they're just bog standard black plimsoles, just an odd pair i'd think. bought new ones today but have left them at work, der!

Re my hair, i really don't think I could have that much cut off(to be like gm's) it's currently bra strap ish length so it really would be a very big change. I think I will have quite a bit cut off though, it's too long and irrating atm. I'd love a fringe but I have a weird hairline so it doesn't work! Acutally, I will book an appointment asap, maybe saturday if dh doesn't mind.

right, off to put these dc to bed/get dh to do it
