can't sleep won't sleep 4

[SummerDad]

Here we are dear fellas

expensive lesson learned

Hi, all!

Hope that you're all ok - would take too long to send individual messages!

mini - tx for the link; I am so shocked by the number of books on the horrible subject! Had absolutely no idea that they all existed!

Oh! My turn to be the only one on here tonight! Suppose it means that you're all in bed; not such a bad thing!

Dad seems to have disappeared from the thread!

Morning all! Arf at cafe's eyelashes, I would have done similar!

Glad you like the midwife kitty, my community midwife was ok, but I was high risk and saw a lot of the hospital midwives, who were amazing!

Now has a image of cafe walking on stage with pink sparky top and pink sparkyly hotpants with a defeint sawgger and hand wave...sitting on chair going hey girlfriend

Stars wonders if it that show where the doorbell rings n somebody comes through those doors

( loved the show too)

Well got to work ok. Just hoping that the home run is better than last night town will be gridlocked this morning as driving over bridge this morning southbound but northbound as at a stanstill at 7:15 sigh

No stars it's cafe sashaying into theatre. Eyelashes aflutter. I dunno NHS services these days.
You are the goddess of Midwives midwife the archetypical midwife of midwifedom. All hale midwife.

Standstill not good stars. Hope you don't get too bored. My DH has gone to docs this morning to have his hemi goblins counted. ( cholesterol check) it made me laugh. Although having to fast has turned him into raving Bugblatter Beast.

I now have an image of Cafe sashaying into theatre in her drag queen lashes & hot pants with me in my special Victorian undies bringing up the rear! The new NHS!

And thank you Mini - I do try (although I also get grumpy with the select few at times too!)

hemi goblins

Well I fell asleep last night at 9.30 again. Lovely . slept till 3.45 then from 5-7 but I've woken with the same headache etc.

cafe your eyelash story really made me laugh. It reminded me of when I was on my honeymoon in New York, wondering found Chelsea while my husband checked out a vinyl fair and I was jumped by a makeup lady who talked me into silver blue, glittery eyeshadow to make my eyes 'pop'. Well, she applied it thickly, right up to the eyebrow, I looked a fright but was too English to say so. Continued mooching round Chelsea and was chatted up by an Italian-American, muscle man in a vest who said I was just his type

Themidwife, of course you are the midwife, she is just a midwife and means nothing to me

By the way, she calculated the due date as Christmas Eve Poor littlekitty Poor tiny New baby too I really should have thought this through.

Mrs, make me feel better please?

Sending Kitty healing vibes.< Waves fingers>

Phew! I got a bit jealous for a minute. As you were!

Having a nice day to myself - went to Zumba & then yoga & met a school friend for lunch. Yum!

Oh no Harriet - being bitten by a toddler - happy days!!

Oh no harriet toddlers teeth are sharp !!

Well i was having a lovely night sat wiyh my dp till a message from ebay

Grrr i always pay same day or next grrr i did message back saying will pay friday after work
grumbles to kitchen to make a brew

Kitty - having a baby at Xmas is lovely honestly! You could buy one of those babygrows with "My First Christmas" in newborn size! How sweet! Are you going for a home birth?

Stars don't let the eBay bullies get to you!! 3 days to pay is reasonable!!

Thankyou midwife i thought so too

Ohh Kitty a xmas mini kitty

Evening everyone

Harriet, littlekitty is a biter too . She does it when she's over-tired or over excited. It's really painful After, she says "ah-ah", signs "sorry", says "mama" and gives me a kiss

Themidwife (the one and only) I'd love to have a home birth, I was born at home (with no phone in the house ). unfortunately I had severe pre-eclampsia last time and very nearly had a stroke. They were prepping me for an epidural to bring down my blood pressure but I didn't want one so I gave an almighty push and out she popped

I doubt I'd be a candidate for a homebirth

Stars, I approve of your daughter's Dockers . Which colour? I had a black pair and a purple pair, my brother had cherry ones.

I must hunt them out actually, they are 22 years old so I suppose that makes them vintage They'll be at my parents house somewhere......

I am so relieved I removed the scary eyelashes

I had a really cool day which compensated for yesterday's general awfulness. Met some scarily influential people and got harangued by journalists but refused to help them cos I am mean it made me realise the niche I am in is one I'm pretty comfortable in. Made me want to actually go home and write that article I was asked to before Christmas (haven't, of course, have scoffed flapjacks and listened to funny songs instead)

kitty pre eclampsia often presents in first pregnancy but not second scary though. I was about to have an epidural with DD for same reason but as the anaesthetist was prepping my back and about to stick said needle in, marked up and everything, out she flew. Phew

I had blue ones and gold ones when I was 9 years old. they'd be vintage by now I was trying to emulate my favourite teacher who was a guy who wore blue suede shoes
