Feb 06 - Save me! Save me!

[Flamesparrow]

I want to know, cos noe am making wild assumptions eppm!

Tonsilitis def on the mend thanks to dh getting me drugs but noe ds2 ill. So it was ds1 Thurs till sUnday, me Mon till onw, ds2 yesterady onwards. Thank God have afriend to take ds1 to school... shr got up 6.40am to manage it and best friend taking ds2 to docs in buggy later.

Loving the detox aspect tho; have had a banana and half a pear, and 2 litres of lucozde, since sunday!! My jeans fit again!!

Breastfeeding plus tonsillitis have worked wonders for my jeans fitting too

Aha! You passed me tonsilitis via text somehow
So how come I didnt lose any weight from breastfeeding?

What size jeans you back to? Just being nosy.

Dairy-free mrm... that's the way to go... mainly because you can't actually eat anything!

I am not a troll, or doing bumsex, or anyone with a smelly fanjo, or in fact anything particularly interesting... in truth I was just feeling a little bit too fruity and too mummyish (especially now there are 2 of them) and wanted a change.

Yes email was what you already know about flame. Did you get my fb message eppm?

Just testing

Aha, it wouldn't let me post yesterday.

Hello

For once i know something that most of you don't. I remember EPPM accidently outing herself and i recognised her on a baby name thread too (i have forgotton what it is now though)

Boys are ok thanks, Noah's got yet another cold and cough at the moment though. He had started mostly sleeping through or only waking for his dummy but he's waking a lot right now cos he can't breath well cos of his cold. He's just gone 4 month old

for new shop opening Friz

for ds sleeping through csws

Glad ds likes preschool and it's improved his speech Jas

How's baby dd Flame?

Hope all your lot are better mrm

gah - i remember the outing, but not the name! Mumofmonsters told me her new name the other day and I completely forgot she'd namechanged let alone what it was until i spotted her posting

Baby lovely - very very placid. Doesn't shut up with sort of chattering grunts, but v little in the way of crying.

MRM - not telling. you will throw things

for noah having another cold.

does anyone else take ages to settle into baby names? I still think of her as "the baby" rather than carys, I was the same with B but don't remember being like it with Emrys... not too sure if it is where it wasn't my first choice for names (neither was B) that it takes me a while, or if everyone is like it?

Are you using those Karvol vaporisors Phoenix? I find them v good.

Both of mine had their names sorted for so long before the births that they fit them straight away.
No idea what would happen if we had another and didn't find out the sex and weren't sure of names beforehand.

I called DS a few things before he was DS (despite the fact that DH picked his name, and called him that from the start) - I just wanted to make sure it was right (and still not 100% sure though can't go changing it now [stoical])

I cannot imagine going a whole pg not knowing the gender... would drive me insane... though obviously didn't actually help me narrow down names particularly early

It would be interesting to see if there was any difference don't you think CSWS?

I know I can't change DD2's name because DH very much didn't agree with my name iyswim, so being good and not trying it out on her.

I love th enot knowing gneder thing eppm (typing in dark, sorry) - it is great when you get the face from people who ask if you know what you're having and you say "A baby"

Ah, I saw her on the baby name thread phoenix

Flame, 10? Surely not 8?

yup to first one... not sure even just my bones wpuld be an 8

Also love not knowing gender.

DD1 was her name from the start (would have been nameless if a boy though).

DD2 was Louise in the hospital, then Twinkle for 6 weeks, and then officially named, but still baby/Twinkle for months

DS as you may remember was Boy for an age, and even once named was Boy/the baby for a very long time.

My friends ds is almost 9 months and has the wrong name.....she is to scared to change it now though.

mrm/ Frizbe....will you just shout at me if I ask how to put on weight/muscle?

I got a big mirror for my birthday, so am now aware of just how skinny my top half is - visible ribs. Not a good look, but not sure where to start....

Jas - there was a weight gain group in the big/slim section at one point

DD was Bronwyn from day one, then at about 36 weeks I changed to Jennifer, which DH didn't like. i still see her as a Jennifer.

DS wasn't completely agreed on but Emrys fitted him from birth.

DD2 - we didn't have any set names. I liked Aderyn from early on, but DH didn't like it and kept saying Adenna. Carys was our "name we didn't both hate"

Oh no Flame, Bronwyn is very much a Bronwyn to me

Jas, put on weight well for me eating works, or sometimes even just looking at food....however I know that's not what you want to know I would imagine eating lots of protein and carbs, whilst doing certain weights would do the trick, I think I saw the thread that Flame's on about too.

MRM boo for being poorly, hope you and ds2 are better soon.

Phoenix, boo for Noah being poorly too Hope he's not keeping you up all night or anything?

waves at CSWS and EPPM, I can't remember your other name 'mushroom'

Managed to start the xmas shopping this week! then dd2 decided to go through the argos catalogue today, so I now have a definiative list of 'everything'

ujas, you could do what dh does. Spend all your bloody income on mscle gain supplements and eat so much that you ignore your kids in favour of cooking it does work tho!

Yes he is Friz. He goes down ok and sleeps til around 1-2am when he gets snuffly and ends up wide awake and smiley . If i didn't bring him into bed with me or come down and sleep on the sofa with him he'd be up then.

We didn't know if Lewis was a boy or a girl so had a boy and girl name. Girl name was Amy Jo and boy was Lewis James, which we obviously used

Noah was Noah as soon as we knew he was a boy. Had no idea for a girl though. His middle name is Rhys and that is what dh wanted to be his first name but i got my way so i let it be his middle name

I got a Karvol vapouriser yesterday csws but he was still up in the night. They are good though so thanks for the tip

Is anyone else having trouble posting or is it dh's laptop that's useless? (mine has gone off to be mended so i'm using his)

It's just you I'm afraid Phoenix.

If i preview then post it works but clicking straight on post doesn't work.

Meant to add before, someone on my other PN thread has just changed her baby girls name.

Why, and what from and to?

Mind you, I know someone in RL who did that last year too.

She didn't say why she just put at the bottom of a long post 'small annoncement: I have changed dds name from Ruby to Ishbel' and she hasn't been back on since.

csws- I remember you mentioning that before I think... didn't she change it from something normal to something rather odd (both beginning with F)?

2 people on my other pn thread are considering changing their DD's names... I think one (LG&T) may have already done it!

Jas- I think if you feel it's the wrong name, you have to change it, even if they're 9 mo... they'll soon learn a new one.

Frizbe- I am being dim I'm sure, but what is the 'mushroom' reference?

Baby name thread? Was this utterly ages ago or recently?

I am happy to tell you, but would be by email, not on here!
