Curvy ladies

[Rees]

I read this, and bloody forgot to reply!

I feel like a filthy whale in that pic of me and Tegs, and that was before my shower

Han - How did you cope with saying bye to Holly?

Helen - Ew, soup and doritoes? They weren't cheesy were they? It totally sounds like a bizarre craving if we didn't know you had no bread!

Rach - I think anything maternity wise would be "safe" especially in the close heat we seem to be getting at the moment! It's been trying to rain here all afternoon and hasn't succeeded, but it's been cooler than it has been!


Had my MW appointment, she took ages to find the baby! My tummy has been aching since, don't think the baby liked all the prodding she was doing!

She answered some of my questions, and wants to see me at 25 weeks instead of 28 to see the results of my scan, I think she just wants to be nosey and see what she's dealing with.

I'm the only woman she's had who's had chicken pox in pregnancy So I'm definately a guinea pig! Hopefully I can work it to my advantage though!

And for the first time ever, I've just registered on ebay! My bank balance might live to regret that....

 

[Cherrybinky]

Leigh, Im definitely sticking with maternity but just what I dont know. I havent worn maternity jeans since about week 15.

Helen, soup and doritos - Id totally eat that LOL. I used to crumble crackers into my soup yummmmmm.

Han, hope youre ok and it wasnt too sad saying bye to Holly.

Weve had major rain here this afternoon and storms but it hasnt cleared it, its made it worse. Were all dying! Didnt help that I did cajun sausages for tea.

Ive sent Pete to bed, hes worked solid since Monday when I last saw him and is knackered. Ill get him up to bath kids at 7!

Im itching to go through all the baby clothing but really must leave it till Tuesday.

Hope everyones ok.

I'm glad I just looked again for the double I want, the one from the town where I work has been re-listed the starting bid is at £80 and it's got 3 days left, so I've "watched" it so I can keep my beady eye on it.

It's only missing 1 cup holder, which I don't care about so long as it's in a good condition, which it looks like. It'll only be for 3 months, although I'm tempted by my friend's iCandy Apple, but it's blue so I'd have to buy a new colour pack for it, unless we're gonna have a boy!

 

[Rees]

Awww, poor Pete Hope he gets a good nap in before bath time!

 

[pink sparkle]

Hi ladies ...i cant remember everything ive read so im sorry if i miss anything out.

Han, what an amazing experience Holly will have...i hope that Megan will become a bit more adventurous. She has booked to go on an activity holiday to wales with the school next may but whether or not she will take part in the all the activities in another matter. I know how you must feel saying goodbye...i would worry too...although im sure you have absolutely nothing to worry about at all...she sounds like a great girl! x

Rach - great news about the baby clothes..theres no way i would be able to wait until tuesday to go through them though...you have will power! How do you feel about the pram now you have it? Have you fallen in love with it again? I hope so. I hope you find something to wear that you feel great in x

BabyD - im sorry about the comments you had that upset you. Ive had lots of 'are you mad' 'wow your have your hands full' at first i let it go over my head but now i snap and say well why am i? The only tough part about having a baby is the lack of sleep but fingers crossed we all get little angels in that department (i wont hold my breath lol).

Oh god my minds gone blank! Sunshine (Amy? is that right?) your hubby done great really hope that they average it out and that he doesnt have to re-sit any...fingers crossed he gets the job.

Rees - You look great in that pic...i remember going for a shower soon after ds was born but i didnt care what i looked like. I tended to scrape my hair back for the first couple of weeks...mmmm more like months hehe...although i did use a bit of mascara to make me look more 'awake' lol! Wow i havent even thought about packing my bag yet let alone what i gotta get to go in it. I suppose thats next on the list of things to do. I really hope that im not kept in overnight.

I got the train into town today took dd and her friend. Dd had her ears pierced...i didnt agree with getting them done when they are young always said as soon as she wanted them done she could...age 10 she decided to and shes chuffed bless her. Had a look in next, h&m and pumpkin patch. Got an outfit from next but was only £12.00 opted for the cheapest outfit i liked. Pumpkin patch was rubbish the quality i think is poor considering how expensive the clothes are in there. They have some real cute stuff in H&M but the queue was massive and i couldnt be arsed to wait.

Went to mamas and papas but the sale is only online so i didnt buy anything may go online and get them to deliver to a store for me. thats reminded me ..yay helen for the cot arriving have fun putting it up look forward to seeing some pics.

Got my growth scan tomorrow dont have to go alone anymore as hubbys boss is off work for the day so he can pop out for an hour which is great as i didnt wanna look like a single mum with no support being there on my own x

 

[Rees]

Jayne - yay for your hubby being able to come to the growth scan tomorrow

I still scrape my hair back now as it's long enough to go up again, my hair is so thick it makes me warm so easily!

I don't know when I'll allow Tegs to get her ears done, I had mine done at 5, my auntie paid for them to be done for my birthday, so I can't say she can't have them until she's 10

I think I'll wait for her to ask for them to be done, seems the most sensible thing to do!

Pumpkin patch seem to have really strange sizes! We went into one in Manchester last year, I loved it all but didn't fancy buying any for Tegs!

 

[pink sparkle]

Yeah i just let dd decide when she wanted them done ...always said when she asked she could have them done. Ive always liked pumpkin patch was just rubbish today and expensive for what it is. £5.00 for a hair band...cheaper in Claires!

Oh meant to say Rees good luck with the house it sounds amazing really hope that you get it maybe you should tell them about your hubbys possibility of work too as you will both be working then and neither of the other couple are. Good luck by the way with the job hope dh's interview went well x

 

[Rees]

Jesus! That's expensive for a hair band!

She knows that Luke is looking for work and works for his dad, so hopefully that'll swing it for us, she said that they're there to look after the landlord's interests, and you'd think that they'd prefer us over some stupid bint who seems like she's trying to fool housing benefit in to thinking that her OH doesn't live with her, she doesn't want him on the tenancy apparently!

I want this Cat Outfit from ebay, but I wouldn't pay that much for it new, and it's gonna go for loads!

Tegan had a pumpkin outfit for Hallowe'en when she was a month old she looks so cute, even if she did flip me the finger in one of the pics I took She looked so cute in it but it was a pain in the arse to get her in it! Ebay is BAD for me I might have to buy Tegan a Christmas outfit or a decent Hallowe'en one this year (Last year I got one from Poundland - bargain!)

 

[cranberry987]

jayne - great news that hubby can come with, youre having it because of small babies arent you? hope this ones nice and chubby so far I think pumpkin patch is a bit crap as well for the money. Ive got a few things from the outlet store in swindon but i wouldnt pay full price, half the time theres threads hanging off etc

ive found that a side ponytail works rly well, can make a kinda loopy bun under your ear if your hairs long enough and it looks fab and like youve spent ages when really youre just scraping your hair back!

just took one of our cats to the vets and she peed ALL down me while i was putting her in the box, had to change my dress, top, trousers, had pee in between my toes! poor thing hates it and we have to take her every 6 wks for a steroid jab. shes lost 0.5kg in 6m which is 1/8 of her body weight, i think its just because shes got a bit of gum disease and might not want to eat sometimes. ive bought some full fat food which is also good for her gums, but the thing is i cant feed it to the boys as they woof the whole thing and put on loads of weight ><

vet wasnt concerned but im gonna fatten her up anyway so shes nice and cuddly.

arguing with rich again tonight over stupid shit. its not even over anything he just never lets things go and builds the argument issue upon issue. itll start as some stupid small thing and then he'll say shit like 'oh you said this tho' which isnt what i meant, so ill tell him, then he'll say that i mean something else and twist it and itll go on and on from there. hes such a child.

 

[cranberry987]

i saw a milkbottle costume for a newborn, was SO cute. it was like a grobag thing with a teet hat and stuff. was £20 tho and from china so I thought not... Children def need dressing up tho, im sure theyll love looking back at the pics (not)

 

[Cherrybinky]

Yep the pram is wicked. Pete played with it earlier and loves it. Its a fantastic solid carry cot and the buggy is ace.

Id SO be bidding on that cat outfit as its a bargain and is in Leeds where I live. I just dont see the point in getting it as its 0-3 months which is pointless.

Its not the willpower stopping me going through the clothes, we have the kids so when my parents had gone, I had to do tea, wash up and now theyre going in the bath then bed then tomorrow I have midwife, packing to do and then we go away till Monday afternoon I shall be on it on Tuesday first thing ;o)

[cranberry987]

glad the prams good, i think 0-3 is fine, they can wear it every day!!

 

[Rees]

I'd love a milk bottle! That sounds like such a cute outfit

Saw a vest that says: My daddy is sooooooo ugly, I'm glad I got mummy's looks

Don't think Luke was too impressed.

Men are like children, I swear. My dad's been home for a few days, sick off work, with fucking man flu. It's a cold, get on with it!

I think Tegan's nappy just leaked. Between us we're not having a good day with pee...

Hope your kitty fattens up quickly! My cat can spare some extra fat? I picked him up the other day and I swear he feels the same weight as Tegan, but he's more cuddly because he's so fluffy Tegan started to give him things when we were at my mum's, she's never paid much attention to the cats, but now that it's just Brian left (who's 9 today!) she thinks he cute and likes to laugh at him!

 

[Rees]

I'd be staying up and going through it all Rach

Glad that you still love the pram! They don't make things to last these days!

Tegan's buggy is gonna need replacing, it's only just over a year old and has been packed away for 6 months, the wheel is nearly worn right down!

0-3 lasts for months, unless you get a fat baby like Tegs, she spent ages in newborn, and then at 2 months had grown out of her 0-3 months stuff! She's tall though. The outfits are normally a bit bigger anyway Especially from marks and spencer and mothercare!

 

[Cherrybinky]

Oh good gods no, Im knackered and its too hot plus Isobel is in bed now and its all in her room in Kittys wardrobe in bags now.

Mum did show me pretty much every item so I have seen it but I want to investigate more.

Just re shaped my fangs for Saturday!
x

 

[cranberry987]

My bumps killing me from the scan yday :/ every time I bend over or something it hurts

 

[pink sparkle]

Yay for loving the pram! x

Sorry Rich is being an arse! Men are just big kids unfortunately! Hope the cats fat soon x

Rach what are those fangs?

Got terrible tummy pain tonight feeling a bit shitty.

Been a naughty girl shopping on line just spent a silly amount on a blanket....just though oh feck it...saving myself delivery charges and will get my mum to pick it up from town...shes an oap with a free bus pass lol! Hubby not very happy with me but tough! Bank accounts taken a bit of a bashing today...must stay away from the shops and not browse on line for a while now! x

 

[sunshine623]

Leigh, hope Luke gets it! Sounds like a fun job, being able to tell people off sometimes! Wish I could do that every now and then.

Rachel, sounds like your parents got you loads of stuff for Kitty! I love getting stuff from people already!

Jayne, yes I'm Amy! lol I have a hard time keeping up with everyone's names, too. I always thought people were awful for getting their girls ears pierced when they were babies, but when my niece wanted to get hers pierced at age 5 it was HORRIBLE! She screamed like she was getting tortured for 30 min afterward, and everyone thought my sister and I were kidnapping her or something! That definitely changed my mind on the piercings. If we ever have a girl, I'll just go ahead and do it before she knows what's going on.

Helen, ewww cat pee! Sorry she went all over you! And that's ridiculous that they pushed so hard at your scan. I've never had any bruising or real pain from one. And at my size they've had to push pretty hard at times, but no pain that persists. Stupid sonographer!

Well Nick found out today that he can't get the job til he retakes that one damn test. I want to say "Seriously??? He can't have the job over 1 damn point???" So he has to wait 30 days and take it again, and if he passes it that time they'll hire him. Good grief!

It's just been a bad week with Nick not getting the job, and one of the girls I work with is being a bitch all week. I'm so ready for the weekend! Hopefully tomorrow will be better since I have my ultrasound and then we're going to Babies R Us to pick up the dinosaur lamp and mobile that have come in. Then we'll get some dinner out, too. We both need a nice night out!

 

[pink sparkle]

Sorry to hear about the job Amy, fingers crossed in 30 days it will be his...kinda sucks that he cant retake it straight away, hope you have a lovely day, sounds like a great day you have planned, were scan buddies today, let us know how it goes and i will let you all know too xx

 

[Cherrybinky]

Rach what are those fangs?

x

The fangs are for Bitten2 this weekend. Over the years Ive always wanted to go full vamp for the fancy dress and last year Pete and I found an amazing Goth shop in Whitby that was selling this weird stuff like grains of rice in a packet for £6. We thought we'd give it a try! You basically add it to boiling water and it goes see through and then you can mould it into fangs. You can re mould over the years as much as you want or into pretty much any shape really. For £6 it was the best buy ever!

My fangs from last year were looking worse for wear and have to say werent a great shape on my gums so Ive made new ones :d

Theres a pic on my facebook but Ive since re done them again to sharper, thinner ones on my canines
