Any Scottish April 2013 babies out there??

[bbymc]

Lol, I know how u feel. My parents and my brother and his wife know. That's it. Had to tell them cos I see them all the time and there is no way I could have hid it considering how ill I've been. They've all been a great help but I really wana tell other people! Mainly my bf's family cos we are going to a wedding in London with them this weekend and it's gona be a nightmare for me since I've barely been able to get out of bed for weeks! No idea how we're gona hide it!

My bf is adamant he doesn't wana tell them until after the 12 week scan though so I guess I'll just have to say I have a virus or something! How I'm gona sit at a table while people are eating ( let alone eat myself) I do not know. I can't even think of some foods at the moment without being sick! Lol x

What a day! I slept all day yesterday, went to bed early and slept from 9pm til 12 this afternoon. I got up, ate some toast, got Shaun from school then put Finding Nemo on and fell asleep on the couch again! I only woke up about half an hour ago.

Now trying to eat some pasta but I feel really nauseous again. I am sooooo tired still.

Still bleeding but hoping it means nothing. I am getting cramps still and the odd twinge where my womb is. If I could I'd happily stay in bed until my scan in 2 weeks!

We have only told my Dad, because he's disabled and lives in a purpose built flat behind my house so I can care for him. I had to explain why I was so sick and unable to go to Tesco for him as he was starting to worry. MIL also knows, although I would have preferred her not to know as she has caused nothing but arguements since we told her. She wants to tell everyone and keeps arguing about it with DH. She likes to make everything about her, so she's currently upset because my son calls her Nana (He already has a Gran and a Granny and it was to stop confusion) but she wants the new baby to call her Gran. I don't care what she wants to be called, there's no need for her to make so much drama about it! My sister also knows, but that's because I don't have a relationship with my Mum and my Dad relies on me so I don't have much of a support network!

Everyone else will find out after the 12 week scan. MIL can strop as much as she likes!

I've been sleeping most of today too. I thought I was becoming less tired too. Lol. Obviously not!

If you would have preferred not to tell your MIL, why did you tell her? Seems a bit selfish of her to be wanting to tell people. Surely she should be happy you told her and respect your decision. In saying that though, I think my bf secretly doesn't wana tell his mum yet cos he's scared she will blab.

As for the whole gran/nana thing? Why is she so keen to be 'gran'? For us it looks like there will be 2 nanas ( bfs step mum and my mum) and a granny (bfs mum). My dad will be papa. Xx

I am really tired too. Just got the dishes and then tesco online shop to do and then hoping to be in bed for 8. Im working at a clients tomorrow, which i'm not looking forward to but they dont want me to start until 9 and as its closer to me i get to leave 1/2 hour later. Quite excited to have an extra wee sleep on a work day

Bbymc i hope you feel better by the weekend.

I don't think she cares whether she is Gran or Nana, she just likes to make everything about her and that's one way of causing a fuss. I didn't want her to be told but my Husband did. I knew she would cause problems but he can never see it until it's too late lol. I wasn't there when he told her as I don't speak to her if I can help it. She has a huge mouth. I ordered a wedding dress and had it delivered to her house so DH wouldn't know about it. We were getting married abroad and he thought I was wearing a simple dress I had bought off Ebay for £70. I wanted to surprise him by wearing a proper dress. She told him about it. I never really forgave her for that (mainly because she never apologised). Since then though, she has gone from bad to worse and is always causing arguments between DH and I. When he told her about the baby I told him to wait for her phoning because she would manage to find some way of causing an argument about it and would be trying to make it all about her as always. Sure enough she phoned that night and was crying about the Nana/Gran thing, then said about telling Stephen's brother and her sisters (she as about 7 of them). Stephen told her it was our decision to make and we would tell people when we wanted to and I could hear her wailing about that from across the room. She's been on at him every day to tell people. I spoke to her about it once and told her it was none of her damn business and we would tell people when we were ready. I said if she didn't stop harping on about it she wouldn't be told anything in future. She hasn't phoned about it since but she's been sending DH messages on Facebook and he wont tell me what they are about so I know she's not going to let go until she gets her way.

I'll get my revenge though. I have told DH she's not welcome for Xmas dinner this year lol. He will be working from 6am until 2pm and there's no way I'm running about after that witch when I'll be 5 months pregnant.

Thanks kaybee. I hope all goes well tomorrow and you don't feel too sick or tired!!

Lj, that sounds like a nightmare!! Does your husband not tell her to back off? Don't blame you about not wanting her round at Xmas! I wouldn't either. Sounds like she would just make it all about her anyway! Has your husband never tried talking to her? Xx

 

[lj2245]

Nah him and his brother both treat her with kid gloves. It will all kick off one day lol.
