Curvy ladies

Helen where did you get the spanx from? Im so fed up of my B belly.

My sis had a 3d scan today and its made me want one sooooo badly!

Lovely dress. Ive got a lovely maxi dress from Peacocks which i wore to a wedding a few weeks ago, couldnt find it online though.

 

[cranberry987]

Got em from figleaves. Can deliver free to one of those locker things at supermarkets etc.

That's a pretty dress Helen However the first time I clicked the link my laptop crashed

New Look also have got a sale on and have some lovely maxi dresses

I'm watching True Blood, and OMG it's amazing! However the fairy war is far too many books and WTF with the house shit? (Sorry for those who haven't seen it!) It's good but I've read all the books, Luke hasn't and Luke is finding it all far-fetched and I'm having to put in what I think is happening

However Claude and Claudine are not as pretty or portrayed in the books Claude is a stripper in the books

So I'm off to watch Loves it.....

 

[cranberry987]

Rich hates true blood. Thinks it's total chick stuff and refuses to watch it with me

I'm so upset right now! Nick and I just had a nice night out. Dinner with friends and then the two of us went to Walmart for a little shopping. Got home and I was burning up after walking Lily to the mailbox, so I came in and stripped down to just my red bra and panties (that Nick usually thinks are very sexy) and laid on the bed under the fan. I was thinking that would be plenty enough to give him a hint toward DTD, but he just said "are you ok?" and went to the living room to watch tv! So I said "are you not coming in here?" and he said he was just gonna watch tv for a little while. I'd understand it if we were doing it EVER, but it's like once every few weeks now. If I actually feel well enough and want it, seems like he'd be all over me. Just makes me feel so gross and fat and unattractive.

 

[sunshine623]

Now I've come to the living room, too, and eaten some ice cream which made my stomach hurt again. He couldn't miss Friday night wrestling I guess! MEN!

 

[cranberry987]

Oh sorry about him. Sounds like he was worried about you at least which was sweet. These men do need things spelling out don't they and even then they're likely to do the wrong thing. I bet you did look lush!

I'll tell you how my dh made me feel extremely sexy last night... Anyone seen jackass? You know the big fat one called Preston who always just wears White y fronts? He said I looked like him in my big maternity pants. I know they're not sexy and I've told him i dint rly care but now I feel rly self conscious walking round in them.

So you're not along love. Men say and do stupid things and are really only good for fetching and carrying a lot of the time. Like pets!

 

[pink sparkle]

Aww sunshine - it does sound like he was worried that you were feeling unwell and wanted to make sure you were ok. If i had been feeling hot and stripped off because i was burning up i would go mad at dh for trying it on lol! xxx

Amy you brave girl stripping down to bra and pants, Id be doing that with the light off and under the duvet, Ive hated my body since I went zooming past a size 12 and although Pete thinks Im a goddess I wont even let him see an inch of my midriff bare at the best of times LOL. Men sometimes dont read our signals, perhaps if you'd gone into the living room and sat on his knee then rubbed hi....actually, I take that back, knowing men he probably would have said I cant see the TV.

Helen, I love that dress you gave the link for. Ive found myself wearing bolder colours since being pg but normally my wardrobe consists of black, leopard print and alternative stuff. It sometimes has felt nice to add colour and be bold.

Im sick of getting up in the night. I must wee 5 times and I cant sleep well. Baby hasnt moved much at all in the last 48 hours, no kicks, no flips etc. I can hear her moving on the doppler and hb is fine but Im worrying. Im at mw on Tues so shall mention it as Im not sure how much Im supposed to feel at this stage.

I really dont want to go to this Unity Day later on. By 2pm Im normally in need of a nap but instead Ive got to put make up on, do my hair and drag my ass to a park at the other side of town to hear music I dont like and watch people get pissed when I cant. The thing thats bothering me the most is the porta loos. Last year I must have used them about 4 times and by 6pm the queues were massive and they were overflowing with wee and tissue and puddles on the floors
Plus, Ill miss all my Sat night tv shows!

Hope you all have a lovely Saturday X

Helen - we both like True Blood, he wasn't sure at first but when he saw how good the first few eps were he really got into them and I have to try not to give away a lot of the storyline!

Amy - I once went to bed "early" and Luke ignored that hint, so I messaged him on his blackberry and said "right then, I guess I'll just finish myself off then...." That got no response so I had to ring him and tell him to look at his fucking phone because he was on the internet! He soon came bounding up the stairs!

Helen - sorry, I had to laugh! I bet you looked NOTHING like Preston! Idiot, I hope he got a slap for that!

Rach - If you don't want to go, don't go! With lack of movements, lie down on your left hand side and drink a VERY cold drink and see what happens

hmmm need some advice. as you know ive just had a friend stay for a week and it was really stressful. this friend is quite chatty and sociable

a friend who has aspergers syndrome (ie not chatty and sociable, lots of anxieties, not flexible about things at all, often misunderstands social cues and just generaly hard work, but lovely) wants to come next summer from Sweden. She hasnt said for how long but I bet itll be longer than a weekend or something.

Shes on benefits so Id feel bad about asking her to stay in a b&b but Im really not sure I can deal with her staying here for like a week. esp as we'll have a baby by then. I visited her in sweden last oct and stayed for two nights and paid for EVERYTHING we did. Cost me about £100 paying for her to get into things, lunch out and travel etc (plus the money I spent on my own entry etc) so I really doubt she'd give us any money for food or petrol if we went out.

I would like her to come over but only for like a weekend - ie two nights. Does this sound unreasonable? She'll have to spend a lot on flights etc for a short time but tbh if she wants to come then she'll just have to pay that.

edit - shes bringing two friends as well, ive said id love to meet up if shes here but they wont be able to stay with us and will have to occupy themselves a lot of the time. Im not taking them round all the tourist spots for a week.

 

[pink sparkle]

I dont think your being unreasonable just explain with the baby things will be a bit tight with room etc so just say you are more than welcome to come stay for a weekend. She would be better coming for a shorter time as she should have more money to spend too rather than try to make a small amount last a whole week and you dont want to have to fund her stay too x

After living in our house for three years hubby is doing his manly duties today and finally making the old boiler cupboard on the landing into a storage cupboard and making shelves to go in it. Im so excited its ridiculous...i think i need to get out more lol! x

 

[cranberry987]

ooh exciting then you get to organise the new cupboard. I LOVE cupboard cleaning out!

 

[Cherrybinky]

Helen, I don't think its unreasonable at all. Both my partner and I have experience with Aspergers working in mental health and they need routine and order. With a baby perhaps interrupting a sleep pattern or day to day order might be hard for her. A b&b will give her some time to herself to chill and relax and rest and in between she will have a lovely time with you. If she can afford to come over, a few more quid on accommodation won't hurt xx

 

[cranberry987]

just found out shes planning to fly into somewhere in scotland... dont think she realises how far it is. oh well, its up to her. she can fit my arrangements

 

[Cherrybinky]

Bloody hell, Scotland! Bless her. Well Geography never was my strong point and I live here so Im sure living in Sweden she has no idea of the distance either lol

[Cherrybinky]

[cranberry987]

[cranberry987]
