OMG sugar, hope DD's teeth get sorted! How did she manage to do that?

MOH, how are you feeling now? Does his other ex live near you. and is she worried/ Perhaps you do need to log calls together in case you need to go to the police. Hope that isnt needed though.

Hi TLV, hope you find this thread useful!

Up and down, Dior. More relaxed because there's no one to argue with, but tired from lack of time to myself.

Ive joined a gym, but Ive only managed to go once. I want things to change properly, to be more in control of my life, but i seem to be letting things slip a bit, after a good start.

I suppose it takes a while for things to level out.

Just wanted to tell you all that I'm an auntie!!

My SIL had a baby girl at 6am this morning!

hi baffy, i've posted on FB with a bit more detail.

dd is definately on the mend. her energy levels go up and mine are going down! she's not quite well enough for our usual activities but not quite ill enough to play happily indoors either!

i feel a bit more energised after a quick trip to teh library this morning.

might head for John Lewis later and price up some appliances.

it all seems such a fag tho!

Baffy · 20/11/2007 12:36

will go on fb now

glad dd is getting better

Hi guys my xp is coming round to sewe dd tonight. No idea if I'm doing the right thing or not.. Hopefully she will understand that we are still friends and although he's not around we all still care and she will se him in the pub from time to time.

Feel better re dd's father. He hasn't called again - nothing else I can do now but sit tight and wait

Hi all, and congrats, Aunty Baffy! Is this your first auntship?

I HATE plumbers! Stayed in all yesterday and he phoned after lunch and said he couldn't make it, could he come today. So I stayed in all this morning, wasn't too popular at work as the only other regular member of staff was feeling ill and wanted to go home early, and I need to be here to lock up and keep an eye on the interns. Then around midday thought I'd better check my mobile, and found a message from plumber, saying he has a virus he picked up in Thailand and could he come tomorrow!!! . So here I am at work, with a whole morning to make up, and a promise from plumber that he WILL be there tomorrow 1pm or, I told him, I shall be fired. Which means I shall have to work Friday, my day off, to make up the time. Not a happy bunny. He'll never be asked to service my boiler again....

But one of the interns at work has recommended her plumber, says he's lovely and sometimes brings his dad, so we could have a threesome...

Baffy · 21/11/2007 14:50

wow so much plumber action I can't keep up!!

hope he doesn't let you down again though - so bloody frustrating!!

yes this is my first auntship. this is my bro (who's a year younger than me) and SIL, who were trying for a baby for years and when they were finally looking into IVF, she fell pregnant!
saw the baby last night. it took all my strength not to run away with her and leave ds in her place!! absolutely gorgeous.

my other brothers and sisters are all teenagers so they don't quite 'get' it. couldn't see what all the fuss was about!
although my 16 year old sister did say she 'wanted one' as we left the hospital - in response she got a 'mum look' from me!

Tanee58 · 21/11/2007 16:04

not quite the plumbing action I usually enjoy !

Baffy, that's such lovely news, I felt the same when my niece was born - wanted to run off with her, especially as I was the only person she didn't cry at (she's now 12 and has only recently stopped crying - not the easiest child...). You know, it's interesting how many people get pregnant when they give up stressing about it. I know of a couple who decided they weren't meant to have children, after trying for 15 years, and planned a holiday going round the world - and then she got pregnant! (end of holiday plans ) And I always got pregnant when I didn't intend it at all !

Hope your brother and SIL enjoy their new dd to the full.

Morning all, not been here for ages. Any mumsnet time really been on pg board, but also been working really hard on some translation work I've got now.
Congratulations aunty Baffy!

How's the pg mcd?

Hope things are all nudging in the right direction for everybody.

Baffy · 22/11/2007 09:42

How are you doing ernest? Things working out well with the new job?

OP posts:
ernest · 23/11/2007 07:16

Hia, am ok, am coming to terms with moving to Milan dh has seen 1 flat, and will see 3 more flats and one house today, then he'll choose what he thinks the best & we'll be moving into a new 'home' that we've never even seen! Do I trust the muppet??? I keep saying, you do know what to look for? Has it got a washing machine? Is it quiet? Are the walls paper-thin, make sure you check for x, y & z. Lord help us.

Have felt a couple of wiggles from baby which is exciting. A couple of my pupils guessed in class yesterday. And I've got more translation work so that's keeping me really busy, and hopefully I'll be able to carry on with that, cos it's all my email anyway, so my physical location shouldn't make any difference.

How's nm? Does ds like him? Is H getting any more organised about not giving up his weekily visit in preferecne to internet dates? Have you seen a solicitor? That would be a nice surprise inside his Christmas card! how do you feel about Christmas.? It'll be hard, the first official one, but then, wasn't he titting you about last Christmas and new years going to visit her on the sly? At least you're in control this year.....
