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 Wine.

Cakes and Double G&Ts are also welcome.

I think my family, friends and I drank the village dry over the Royal Wedding and the bank holiday, and I live by the sea...

WinterLover · 05/05/2011 18:09

Listen at you all talking about wine...

KaraStarbuckThrace · 05/05/2011 18:29

Well you can have one small glass Winter! How are you feeling?
I am just so very tired.
Am now on ML as can get more from MA than I can earn with my current client list which has been dwindling, hopefully will be given a bigger one when I get back.

WinterLover · 05/05/2011 18:38

I do have the occassional one (helps me sleep Wink) Im doing well, although the past week I feel like Ive been hit by a bus but have my bloods check at next appointment in 3 weeks so maybe its low iron or a bug, im still off work so dont think il be going back before ML kicks in, im only down £25 per week by not working so weighing that against feeling loads better its worth it.

Your about 35 weeks arent you? If I remembered right your about 10 weeks in front of me.. im probably wrong tho :) Are you getting excited now?

nenevomito · 05/05/2011 20:41

Don't worry about repeating yourself Pegs, one muffing is never enough Grin.

Its virtual wine winter. Here, have a large virtual G&T

So y'all good?

WinterLover · 05/05/2011 20:57

KaraStarbuckThrace · 06/05/2011 09:42

Winter - wow you are correct, I am 35+3 today, I have my MW coming over to do my home birth check list this morning!

WinterLover · 07/05/2011 12:20

Hi Kara :) not ignoring you, was in hospital yesterday as I had some bleeding :( all okish now tho but they did stab me with anti-d (not sure what hurts more cramps or my arm lol

I though you was Wink how did your home birth check go?

KaraStarbuckThrace · 07/05/2011 14:32

OH no, hope you are okay today WL.

Am geared up for a fight with the Supervisor next week, I have failed the checklist but only on weight so MW has arranged for supervisor to call me.

Will keep you updated!

DH is upstairs not very well :(
DSS is sat on the sofa with face on Hmm
DS is happily playing. I am sat on my computer cursing Turbo Lister, as it has managed to lose all the fucking listings I have been loading onto it, ready to put on Ebay this weekend Angry

aurorastargazer · 07/05/2011 14:37

same here wl
and mr kst Smile

WinterLover · 07/05/2011 14:58

Im not too bad today just feel like ive done 100 sit ups!!

DP has been grumpy because he was doing his tax return, and is now planting up in the garden.

DSD is playing quietly with neice as grandad is babysitting her till tomoro and has run out of things to do with neice already. Que super WL with playtime lol

I am sat watching adult TV whilst playing on MN and about to purchase baby things Grin

Ohhh give supervisor what for, hope it all goes to plan in the end :{

KaraStarbuckThrace · 07/05/2011 22:58

Ooh what you been buying?

Have just ordered a cot mattress and 2 car seat bases for our travel system.
SO I think we are now sorted, finally!

WinterLover · 08/05/2011 09:42

Nothing yet I had to mediate between children, DP and a hose pipe!! Drowned rats springs to mind, but they had fun.

I still don't know whether to get Moses basket or travel cot with bassinet function so I can have a safe place to put baby down whilst down stairs... Argh so many choices.

I'm like you plan to have everything done by the time I'm 35w so I can just chill for the last part.

yoshiLunk · 11/05/2011 20:33

Where's MJ ? someone just tell me she's okay, I've been out of the loop for a while....

Winter - re travel cot bassinet - not very 'rockable' IME. I had a moses basket on a rocking frame - very easily moved, downstairs during the day, - easily taken up at night without disturbing baby bonus Grin

nenevomito · 11/05/2011 21:00

yoshi - she's fine just mega busy and hasn't been on line for a while.

Quiet around here isn't it!

nenevomito · 11/05/2011 21:03

I had a moses basket and rocking stand. Bloody brilliant!

KaraStarbuckThrace · 12/05/2011 07:50

Cot mattress has arrived! Very good, really impressed by the service and it fits perfectly with the bed!
Car seat bases have arrived as well. MIL & PIL are coming up this weekend and MIL has bought me some cot sheets and baby towels.
The cot sheets we had previously we freecycled along with old crappy cot, but wouldn't fit our new one and the towels we had we gave to a friend a couple of years ago and are 2nd/3rd hand by now so will be really rough! Times like these I wish I did have a tumble dryer so I could soften up towels.
