The Bonus Mums (BoMs) Wine drinking thread is now resuming normal service on SP.
Take a seat on our Passive Agressive Furniture and pour yourself a nice .

Cakes and Double G&Ts are also welcome.

Yey 3rd trimester then! Still plenty of time for baby to turn into proper position!

Get some Raspberry leaf tea, you can start taking it from around 34 weeks. We had lots of debate on my AN thread and we found some info that suggested you can start taking 2 x 300 or 400mg tablets 3 x a day. I only have 500mg tablets so I take 1, 3 x a day.

Morning all. Tired Ginny here. Insomnia last night. At least the kids are back at school.

Hello all !

Wakey Wakey Ginny, have a nice glass of lemonade or something, always picks me up a bit.

Kara I'm not going to say still here then? or anything annoying like that

Winter - yes get that Raspberry leaf down you love. DS2 was breach up until practically the last minute, - I went for an assessment appointment at the hospital and the consultant went to great lengths covering all the possibilities about turning etc, then she examined me and he'd turned - it was almost like she's talked him into it

Other news, I am officially the worst mother ever, DS2 has broken his collar bone and I didn't even know it . He fell last week, cried, got over it, but I'd noticed he was avoiding using his right hand so took him to docs who ran his finger along the collar bone and said, yep I think that's a break, (I nearly burst into tears there and then) Sent us off to the hospital and the x-ray showed indeed it was, I . Feel . Just . Awful - he's been so brave

He now has a sling (sporting a smiley face drawn by the doctor) and a sticker with 'I was very good in x-ray today'

Poor DS and poor you too!

BY the way, I have just shown that as a boss I will stoop to no lows over my minions staff.

1-2-1 meeting with member of staff.
Asked him if I could borrow his pen.
Used it to stir my coffee.
Gave it back to him.

Oooh the look of horror on his face. I explained that his was just a company bic and mine was nice, but I don't think that helped.

Awwww your poor DS dont be hard on yourself, you wasnt to know :(

Il get some rasberry leaf tea then, going into town this week so will hunt some down

BabyHeave - you are EVIL!!!!

Yoshi - have seen plenty of posts saying "I'm the worst mother the world, DC hurt themselves, have now discovered they have a broken bone only after I sent them out the house to play/go to school/buy fags and booze" so please don't beat yourself up about it, you are not the first mum to miss a broken bone and you won't be the last!
I fell down the stairs when I was 18 and was tended to by a first aider who insisted I had just sprained my ankle and kept trying to make me walk on it. It was only because my mate insisted on taking me to A&E that it was discovered I had fractured my fibula!
Children are pretty resilient and heal fast. I hope your DS is okay and I am sure you are spoiling him rotten

He's been so brave and sweet, took his jumper off earlier and he was whispering 'careful, mummy, careful, careful, careful' then 'yay, it's off - that didn't hurt a bit, clever mummy'

Maybe he's just an evil genius at making me feel bad

I love your bad boss stuff, babyH, just love it.

Well I went to the gym anyway, had a swim and a mini kip in the sauna not realy feeling better but I'm cleaner !

Yoshi- Hope DS is better soon. That's the type of thing that would happen to me because I'm an evil mother not fussed about sickness unless I see Blood, Temp, Spots and D&V.

BH- I shall use that trick with stupid giant toddler my slightly irritating colleague. Love.It.

I'm tired too. DS decided to wake me up in the middle of the night. He went back to sleep. I couldn't. Stupid early dawn. Stupid Birds. Grrrr.

Yoshi - you're absolutely right. Children are brilliant at eliciting guilt out of their parents.

Of course, if it had been your step-child who you'd left injured then you would have been pure evil and worthy of a sound beating. You do know that don't you?

p.s. Yes. I am Evil.

I am that horrible boss who gets people to bring her coffee and pick up a sandwich when they go out for lunch.

Now I ruin pens too.

Mwahahahahaaaaaaaa

BH I can't help picture you surrounded by Despicable Me Minions

That's my dream you know. A whole see of minions at my command. All with damp pens.

Bananaaaaaaa

PMPL !

I have to confess I love that movie more than just as much as the girls.

Its a fab film. DH and I watched it before the DCs did. Just to check it wasn't too scary or anything, obviously. :)

GRRRRRRRRRR

Stupid bloddy god dam 'this is a public announcement please dont hang up' calls!!! I was asleep-ish :(

Oh Winter- I hate those too

oh and debt collectors calling for someone who obviously changed their number to avoid them and then we were assigned their sodding number however not had any more calls from them since DP told them if they called again he'd come to thier building and shove the phone somewhere painful

I don't get any of those since I signed up to caller preference. Before then I was getting 3-4 a day. It was driving me bonkers.

recorded messages, not debt collectors by the way!

We're signed up to TPS, Ive got the phone next to me now so I can see whos actually calling

At last, in bed with a nice

DH out with a mate- I'm watching crap telly and MNing, which is fine by me.

Morning, I slept loads last night, but then I did have plenty to catch up on...

Oh Baby ner ner ner ner ner you was wrong ner ner ner

Sorry Kara just had to say it

I think you will find that I was right.

The baby was wrong.

:)- Pthhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
