Evening ladies
Alicet let me know you were asking about me so I thought i'd pop in and update you all.
Fil is OK, well, he's up and down, was looking well last time we saw him and his pain was mostly under control but then we saw him today and he was a bit thinner and had a lot of pian last night till they got it under conrtol .
Alice has been an absolute angel and is helping us out a lot, she has been chasing things up and filling us in and generally putting our minds at rest. I cannot thank her enough, she is a total superstar
Hopeing for further updates on fil tomorrow, they thought it was one thing but now not so sure so still waiting for a more definate answer.
Strawberry - Sorry you're having such a stressful time at work, hope it eases up a bit soon or you find something less stressful to do... Having trouble thinking of a non stressful job right now will come back to you on that one!
We saw the animated gruffalo at xmas, was great, we recorded it for Dylan cause he loves the book
WWAJC - Sorry your perfume was so, erm smelly! I totally understand what you mean, it just gets too much after a while and makes you feel sickly. Hope you manage to get a nice bottle of the weaker version.
Sorry things are not exaclty plain sailing with your dh, hope the tension breaks soon and you can work out a way to move on with teh 'plan'. I presume this is the most difficult bit, once you're seperated and all the dust has settled hopefully you'll all be a lot happier.
Alice - I know I've already spoken to you![grin but I keep meaning to say Happy Belated Anniversary! Oh and glad you had a nice day and are now having an even nicer frink of wine . I just had a tiny sip of dh's wine, can't wait to have a proper drink again!
NC - Salon treatment sounds fab! You totally deserve to be pampered after how busy you've been and still are atm. Hope you get awayat the weekend weather permitting and have a great time!
You asked about whether we have a sitter for when I give birth. Well, MIL is on standby, Dylan is really close to her and FIL and they just live on the next street. She says if it's through the night she'll just come and sleep here or if durin the day we can just drop him there, I'm totally happy with her (and fil) watching him, he'll be spoilt rotten . I don't have much of a birth plan, have discussed whether to have c-section with consultant due to prev 3rd degree tear but we agreed I healed well so can go for vaginal delivery again eek! That is what I want but still have the natural nervousness about doing it all agian iykwim.
I have to give birth at Wansbeck due to prev tear so my main worry is getting there on time cause lat time the painful part of my labour was just under 5 hrs and it's an hour away . Popped in to Asda on the way back from visting fil today and got a lovely little outfit for Miles, some socks also , tbh we have tonnes of clothes for him but wanted him to have something new for him too..
Haven't heard from my parents since before xmas, around the start of december when they sent me another stupid parcel, think I mentioned it at the time... It contained 2 cards full of emotinal abuse so I ignored it. I got an email from my dad a while later sbruptly asking if I got the parcel but I ignored that too. Hard to do but neccesary as it's just my mum pulling his strings and trying to get attention any way she can
Floria - So glad operation no boobies is progressing so well. Sounds like it's definately going in the right direction, just up to you to stay firm I think, you're doing great . I want to say, like I said to choc that you have done amazingly to bf for this long and I think it's just wonderful.
LLL - Awww at Sam wanting to marry you, did your heart just elt completely on the spot?! I think I might of cried but I am full of hormones atm.
BabyBlue - Sorry Sofias been giving you a hard time. Dylan sometimes plays up at the supermarket, we take an apple with us for him to munch on now. It seems to occupy him till he chucks it when he's had enough. Before that he kept demanding everything we put in the trolly and getting stroppy when he couldn't have it! Strange as it's taken us an absolute age to get him interested in food and now he wants it when we go shopping
Muppet - PMSL at Henry with his sunglasses on and Toby's light being on etc... I have a strong feeling I have all this to come when Miles turns up!
Glad you seem to have found a home for Stan, hope they get along well and he can join the new family with no probs.
Inzi - How's the MS honey? You have my sympathy in buckets. Mine has been worse this tiem than last time (although by the sounds of it still nowhere near as bad as you had it with Jane) and it made me thoroughly miserable, even though I knew it was all for a good cause. Not a lot helped this time but I just had to eat whatever I could no matter what it was (which wasn't a lot tbh). Fingers and toes crossed for you that it doesn't last too long and you're positively blooing before you know it.
Got some supplies for my labour bag today, breastpads and maternity pads, very glam! Makes it all seem more real though. Just need to find an excellent deal on newborn nappies now and stock up!
Well, I hope I haven't missed anyone out but if I have, hi!
Will try and get on more often...
