FirstStar ? not a Kim!

Honeyapple ? hope you feel much better soon hon Are you really Hannah or are you trying to stop us guessing?

Chooster ? meant to tell you that we have a madam living across the road! Honestly!

Fettle ? I used to love playing Mastermind! so Fiona for you Nope, I?m not a Mary I too have lots of vowels!

Hello Greedy ? Glad DS is feeling better The pop star is better known than the porn star (well, I?d never heard of the latter) think about the girls names mentioned in Barry Manilow songs ?.. so you are Joolz

PinkButterfly · 01/04/2007 09:03

MrsMc .... are you an AMANDA ??

Grrr - just typed a really long message, then lost it!

I remember mastermind too - was rubbish at it though. Do you remember the picture on the box - a kinda creepy old guy with a beard?

Fettle, your name is not dissimilar to mine. Only 2 letters different.

Greedy - sorry, hope I haven't offended you by calling your posts madcap. I knew it wasn't the right word. I just meant they are very funny and a little bit scatty in the nicest possible way, honest! To compensate, I have found you a much better google image of your old name \link{http://www.americandigest.org/mt-archives/pg609242004c.jpg/greedy guzzler}

Sorry to hear everyone's kids are poorly. DD has been snot free for 2 weeks (the first time since October) but today both barrels are going again - booo.

Bodkin · 01/04/2007 12:10

Oh, I did my link wrong. Hang on...

Jeez - check out the Mastermind guy's syrup as well... here

PinkButterfly · 01/04/2007 12:32

Bodkin - are you a Shona ?

honeyapple · 01/04/2007 15:14

Hiya,

Sorry can't keep up with all the name guessing as I am feeling totally rubbish. Got a horrible, horrible cold/cough that has taken over my whole body and I have no energy at all. [feeling sorry for herself emoticon]
Was supposed to be at a wedding today, but DP has had to go on his own.

Mrs- nope, I am Hannah.

Just been googling fever/flu/illness in early PG and it's not pleasant reading. Might ring GP if I dont feel better tommorrow.

PinkButterfly · 01/04/2007 16:13

Oh Honey - sorry to hear you are feeling so rotten. Hope it passes soon. I had a terrible flu virus over the entire Christmas and New Year when I was only 14/16 wks pg and it was awful - only able to take paracetamol (although the doc did say if it developed into something treatable via antibiotics e.g. chest infection there were ones they could prescribe in pg). Don't hesitate to see gp if you feel you are not getting any better with rest, lots of fluids and paracetamol. x

honeyapple · 01/04/2007 16:46

Thanks PB.

fettleandminifettle · 01/04/2007 17:48

Cool, Bodkin - totally forgotten the picture on the box!!!.

Actually you've cheered me up a bit - feeling a bit low today, no reason at all - should be on great form, as it is DD's birthday and we went to Longleat, but just feel really Sunday-evening-itis-ish, IYKWIM!! Consultant appointment on Tuesday morning, then we are off on holiday for a week on Wed am - so only have tomorrow at work, so don't know why I'm feeling like this - hormones I suppose!

Honey - sorry you are not feeling well either - I think I've got a bit of tonsillitis - but thankfully my throat is a bit better today, but I still have that squeaky voice from time to time - determined to avoid any drugs if at all possible, but nearly caved into some gargling with soluble paracetamol last night!

Hope everyone else is doing ok??

Bodkin - are you a Viola?!!

take care all

No, no, and no to the names. Starting to feel like Rumpelstiltzkin!

Sorry you guys are all down in the dumps - I am a bit too, and not even ill. Definitely pesky hormones - having a "how will I cope day" today DD driving me up the wall and asking ridiculous questions all day long, then we went to some friends for sunday lunch (lovely) but DD spent whole time hitting their DD. When do they grow out of this bloody phase ?

greedyforbabies · 02/04/2007 09:30

bodkin - lorna?

mrs - you MUST be LOLA! have i got it? tell me i have please!!!!! you are lola to me anyway now! whether thats your name or not!

greedyforbabies · 02/04/2007 09:33

hey bodders! i liked my picture this time!
hope you all had a great weekend.
we had a super busy weekend visiting 3 new babies and going to 2 dinner parties and i had to work on sat! i am knackered!
the babies were cute though! although i did end up holding one of them for about 1 1/2 hours and even i got a bit bored!

honeyapple · 02/04/2007 09:45

hi,

well i just come back from GP- no infection, i havent got pneumonia, so just paracetamol and grin and bear it. Plumber is back- but still NO sign of a bathroom. i am off to stay at mum's house tommorrow with kids. She wants to take them to the zoo. I want a bath!

I reckon Mrs is definitly a Lola! Love it! Infact DD was very nearly a Lola, until various celebs started naming their offspring Lola/Lila etc.. Also MIL HATED it!!
Or maybe she is Tallulah?

MrsMcEasterBunny · 02/04/2007 10:17

Well done PinkyButterfly, indeed I am!

Honeyapple ? hope you feel much better soon p.s. only ever known nice people called Hannah!

Fettle ? hope the consultant?s appointment goes well and that you have a fabby holiday!

Bodkin ? can?t think of any names!

Greedy ? not a Lola but I do like that for a girl but DH says everyone will think she?s a showgirl from day 1 but I?ve tried to point out, in vein, that no one her age will know about the song!

Hello Firsty and all the other ladies Hope you are all well and that your kids are all on the mend!

Told my MIL yesterday that lost baby would have been Ava, she loved it

I still don?t know if I have OVd or not. Software says no but my temps have been above where I think the coverline is for 5 days now. Ovusoft thinks the coverline is higher than I do but only cos of really high pre ov temps at the beginning of cycle but I think that was down to pg hormones still hanging around. If I did OV it was on 28/3 which weirdly was cd28 for me so we?ll see what happens now. If I get to 12/4 with no AF, I?ll test as that will be cd43 or 15dpo. I stupidly did a test yesterday at 12am! of course it was BFN but after the software annoying me like this, I began to wonder if the whole thing was rubbish and as I was cd32, my longest cycle after the last one, I thought what the hell! I guess I MC was still only 5 weeks ago this Thursday so I need to be patient Anyone else seen that LissieLou is pregnant again

honeyapple · 02/04/2007 11:00

Aha! Amanda! Are you ever a Mandy? That's a Barry Manilow song isnt it? Who is the porn star? Doesnt matter I wont have heard of her anyway!

Going to take DC to cinema... which will be less painful to watch- Mr Bean or Meet the Robinsons? Anyone seen either?

PinkButterfly · 02/04/2007 11:29

Hoorahhh I got one. So who's names have we got and who are we still trying to get - can't keep track of much at mo!!

Honey - I got Amanda from the clue MrsMc gave in a previous post about a Manilow track and that her name had a few vowels in it. Don't have a clue who the pop star (or porn star for that matter) would be with the name Amanda!

We haven't seen either films yet but being subjected to TMNT and Mr Bean at somepoint over the easter holiday. DS1 has been invited to a birthday celebration out for pizza then movies to see Meet the Robinsons when actually that's the one I would probably prefer to see with him! Sure you will enjoy whatever you see - Mr Bean has had good reviews from a couple of DS1's friends who have seen it already.

so whats your name then pinkb? give us a clue. or did i miss it?

MrsMcEasterBunny · 02/04/2007 12:35

Honeyapple posting for you all over the place this morning! I?m NEVER a Mandy, often a Mand or a Manda and sometimes a Demanda .

Pinkbutterfly ? think 007 for their surname!

Hi FirstStar ? thanks hon.

Greedy ? how are you doing?

Firststar - I don't know how to link a thread but Lissie's news is in Pregnancy topic called NOT DUE FOR ANOTHER WEEK BUT....

PinkButterfly · 02/04/2007 12:56

Greedy - no clues been given on my name so far. Ok, let me think....... the shortened version of my name was also in the name of a song which I believe topped the charts in 1974 (the year I was born). Recording artist was a lady who was also an actress.

MrsMc - Bond ? James ??

Chooster · 02/04/2007 14:10

I'm rubbish a guessing names, but are you an "Angie" Pinkbutterfly? Am thinking Rolling Stones song? May not be 1974 though...Mmmm...

I really really hope you OV'd on the 28th MrsMc - will be keeping it all crossed for you! Hope you got my e-mail earlier too! Ds seemed to recover on Saturday morning so we went to MrsMc and MrMc's house, where DS then proceeded to fall asleep for an hour and just wasnt himeslef... Anyway the tell tale spots have come out today, not chicken pox as he's already had that, but hand, foot and mouth disease. I'd never heard of it til I had kids! DS is still not himself but he seems brighter today and doc wasn't worried about me getting it either. I just really worried that Mr and MrsMc would come out all spotty too! Thats the last time we'll be invited for lunch

Apart from that all is good here - sorry to those feelig down in the dumps. Bodders, your DD will get through it. It probably feels like an eternity but she probably wont do it in a couple of months. Hope it didn't ruin your lunch at your pals.

Very very pleased about lissielou - I've hardly come across her on here but I did follow her recent bad news. Fingers crossed this one works out for her.
