Any Scottish April 2013 babies out there??

[Kaybee]

I could probably manage 3 courses. I might just order a starter and main first though and see how I get on.

Thats a pain in the ass that your indian order was wrong. I hate when that happens. Bit cheeky expecting you to pay for delivery. Have you had it yet?

I need to make a quick dash to tesco in the morning to get my mum and MIL a card and some chocs. They didnt have much choice in our local spar.

Rubbish that Stephen has to go on night shift. There is probably never a good time for that though!

Hey ladies I hope you hav a nice time tomoro... I've got my Mother's Day duties lol.

Cherry hope ur infection clears Hun.

Aw I love chasni and garlic nan.

Il check tht website out hoping my boy will turn...x

Nah the Co-op didn't have much either lol. I'm usually much more organised than this but cannot be bothered this year!

I had my dinner and it was lovely. Just out of the bath My skin has been so dry recently and it's been all flakey and hive-y. I usually have greasy skin so I haven't had a clue what to do with it. I ended up using a body scrub on it If I have a bright red, skinless face tomorrow, that is why!!

 

[Kaybee]

Hopefully you can make it next time Cheryl and we will have our babies in tow! hope baby turns too.

I was speaking to my mum earlier and she said she picked us up some treats from m&s for our dinner tomorrow night. Nom nom maybe will have to stick to just 2 courses for lunch

My skin is usually dry but not so much on my face but noticed it has been the last couple of weeks and I cant shift it. I have doublebase cream for eczema on my hands and I keep lashing that on but its still there!

 

[lj2245]

I've got a combination of baby oil, E45 and sudocrem on my face now It feels a bit cooler and less melted lol.

My hair usually gets really greasy too but since being pregnant it has also been very dry which I am LOVING as it means I don't need to wash, dry and straighten it every day I have ridiculous hair. It's curly but not a nice curly...it's thin and frizzy!

 

[Kaybee]

My hair is really in dire need of a cut. Its curly/wavy/frizzy too. I get loads of flyaway srands too. Apparently my hair is fine I just have loads of it so it looks thick.

Hi ladies. We're just back from a massivr family dinner at my mums. Funnily ebough we had spag bol too! Followed by a choice of banoffee pie, fresh cream and strawberry tart or apple and raspberry crumble. Was amazing!!

My mum gave me a massive bag of clothes for James and a lovely card. It included a wee blue hand kniy cardigan and my boy's shawl, both knitted by my mum. The shawl is a bit of a tradition, my mum still has the ones my Nana knit for us and she made one for my nephew too, I totally love it! Will try and get a picture of it on here tomorrow to show you.

Hope the meet goes well tomorrow! Sorry I can't be there, will definitely be up for the next one though!! Xx

 

[Kaybee]

Aww that's lovely Arlene.

I did manage some dinner My mum had gave us a pudding as well and Dave is really wanting to eat it but I'm not sure I can manage...yet

It was lovely to meet you girls today and am looking forward to meeting your babies next time

 

[lj2245]

Yeah it was really nice to get out the house and have girl chat haha The waffles were brilliant too I fell asleep after I got home and didn't wake up until Shaun came home. He brought me daffodils, chocolates and a card he'd made himself with Spongebob on it Perfect

We will definitely arrange something for after babies are born, when we are all ok to travel

 

[Cherrybump]

oooh did you girls have fun lol. Im a useless person when it comes to traveling. Dont like to travel on my own .. lol im such a weirdo.

Hope the food was yummy to lol xxx

 

[Kaybee]

Those waffles were delish! And the girl chat was good too.

Aww that was so sweet of Shaun. Really lovely. I didn't manage a nap but am planning an early night. Can't believe its Sunday night already...ah well at least I don't have work to go to in the morning.

Cherry I prefer to travel with someone if I don't know where I am going.

 

[lj2245]

Kaiden is sooooooooo cute

 

[arlene]

Aww glad you had a good time girls! Sorry again I missed it! Cherry I'd be happy to give you a lift if we're still living in Edinburgh by the time we next decide to meet up.

I can't believe it's sunday already as well! So glad I only have two weeks left at work! I'm hoping the roads have been gritted for going to work tomorrow as well, edinburgh is treacherous!

We were at the hockey game tonight and managed to win against Belfast which I totally wasn't expecting! James tends to go a wee bit nuts when the crowd gets noisy so I'm hoping that means he'll enjoy it! I tend to get a bit excited at the games as well so god knows what I'll be like if my team manages to make the finals in Nottingham. May end up going into labour! Lol xx

After thinking I was going to suffer last night thanks to my hectic weekend, I took painkillers, surrounded myself with pillows, filled my hot water bottle, got a back massage off Ryan and fell sound asleep woke up loads for the toilet but pain was minimal I was so happy lol. Ryan had taken himself downstairs after I fell asleep too, to sleep on the couch so I'd sleep better ( and not disturb him too much either!) so I had the bed to myself Needless to say I'm feeling much better this morning! And to top it off, my midwife phoned to ask if she can do my checks at home this morning rather than at the surgery so now she's coming here and I don't have to figure out how I'm gona get to the surgery myself in this crappy snow

How you all doing today? Xx

 

[lj2245]

We re snowed in! Schools are off and we can't leave the house lol.

 

[Kaybee]

Thats good you have a good sleep

I had a crappy sleep. Insomnia, sickness, achey hips and DUKE cleaning himself.

My eyesight has been a bit weird this morning. I have taken my lenses out and am hoping its just tiredness. Seems to be getting back to normal now.

Laura, thats a bugger being snowed in. We have just had a wee dusting of snow overnight. Kaiden was disappointed there wasnt enough to sledge to nursery

Think he is too small for the deep sea world yet. I asked him what he saw and he said a blue frog, a shark and a balloon

Wonder where we should meet up with the babies? Not sure F&B will manage to accomodate us all and babies

 

[lj2245]

I was thinking that last night. Maybe there is a soft play or something. Not sure the babies will be too interested in playing in the soft play but at least we know they can accommodate them!

Poor Kaiden! He can have my snow. The dog went out the back and disappeared into it! Would be a terrible time to go in to labour lol!

I took Shaun to DSW when he was about 18 months and he spent the time licking the starfish tank! We went again when he was 4 and he loved it. He doesn't remember it now though so will need to take him again.

 

[CherylC3]

Hey ladies glad u had fun meeting up... Loads of snow here too. X

 

[bbymc]

Aw thats crap youre snowed in Laura. Just wrap Shaun up and send him out to build a snowman lol. Ryan's happy its snowing so heavy here. Hes been on about building a snow family and taking its picture to document it lol. Me with bump, him and the mutts! How sad eh?? lol. He's been waiting for snow since November to do it lol. Geek! lol.

Hows your eyesight now Karen? Hopefully back to normal! Thats a shame Kaiden didnt think much of DSW. I think its cos there isnt too much to interact with for wee ones. Even the national museum is better and its free lol.

I have no idea where we could go with the babies. Somewhere with lots of space I'd say. lol. Maybe there is a baby friendly coffee shop somewhere? Imagine we did go to F+B's lol. They wouldnt know what hit them lol. Suppose it depends how many of us do meet though.

Well, midwife went well. Baby is 1/5th engaged and head down Seems happy in there! And my BP is fine. My mum had preecampsia and both me and my mum almost died when I was born so Im paranoid about my BP lol. All is good for now. Only 2 weeks til my next appt.

 

[Cherrybump]

OOh thanks hun that would be nice lol. Didnt realize you drive no wonder when i get outside your gone lol. although last friday i had to wait back lol.

Its snowing pretty bad here aswell. Think its half a foot deep in some parts lol there has been no gritters out this morning but when i went to asda i seen one lol. Its been a crazy day for whether sun, snow, snow and rain, :S lol hopefully its doesnt turn to ice or getting super slippy xx
