Hey girls. Real fast post from me.

As for accents, I'm really clueless about accents from overseas. My friend that's off of BnB is from Scotland and I honestly had no clue from hearing her. It just sounds English to me. I guess now that I know where she's from I can see the difference but when I first met her I had no clue.

Pippin- I have no experience with something like that but I do wish you the best and I hope it all works out. Fingers X'ed for you. Try to relax as much as possible hun. Easier said than done I'm sure.



We got Emma's first walking shoes today!! I got two different pairs at stride rite. I cannot believe how expensive they are!! I walked out spending $85. That's just nuts. I could buy 10 pairs of shoes for myself for that price. I only wear flip flops though so they are cheap. I got her tennis shoes and dressier brown shoes. I wanted plain shoes so they can match just about any outfit. So here is the brown ones I got.

And the tennis shoes aren't online but they are these in white and pink.

We've already been to the park with her and she loved walking all over and showing off her skills for her daddy.

Okay I'm off now! I hope everyone is doing good.

Hey pips im not sure if you would remember but i had the same thing on Elin but i was bleeding i had an early (internal) scan at 8 weeks i think and they could not find a heartbeat, my heart broke as when i was pregnant for Ryan at 5 weeks they found a heartbeat and that was an abdominal scan so i just thought the worst but she is here and Ryan is not so i think you just can never tell, sorry if that doesnt help but i honestly have good feelings about you and your little bean for you xx
Cleck i love those little brown shoes!!
Nutty take care please dont want you in A+E!!! xxxxx

As for accents im from Wales (i think im the only one) and if you have heard Charlotte Church speaking then you have my accent check me out "ooooh im a celeb" hahahahaha!!

AFU Elinor has been sleeping in the nights in a sleeping bag for about ever and i really feel its time that she had a quilt, but where do i buy a good one?? And do you girls think its a good idea?? I want a small one for her cot xx

 

[Sam_Star]

Hi ladies! Hope you're all having a lovely weekend!

Cleck: Those are adorable! Hope you and DH are having a lovely time together and Emma is enjoying her daddy being home.

Boothh: Ohhh! You lucky lady you! Have a fab time and take lots of pics!

Pippin: I am so sorry you're going through such a time hun. I'm sure it will be ok and you'll see the heartbeat soon. Sending positive vibes your way and keep us posted! Big

Nutty: Please be careful hun. I'd hate for anything to happen to you. Heck I'd hate for anything to happen to any of us on here. I adore all of you too darn much!

Sam: Those are darling shoes too! You should get them bronzed and keep them forever hehe.

Andie: Oh my goodness about your bambino! I hate to tell you but it only gets worse. My 13 yr old got a "boo boo" (a gym floor burn) on his back recently and boy did he act like a sissy about it. Then just a few weeks ago he had scraped up a knee. So I think as they get more and more active as they get older they just have to go through the injuries. I know myself and my sibs did when we were kids. And awww poor Kiera. I'm sure she will be ok. It probably is just a phase. Hang in there hun.

Shiv: Have a great time!!


AFU: Well so far it seems as though my trick that I tried to get Bry to eat lumpy food worked. I fed him turkey with rice, sweet potatoes, carrots, and apples, along with puree baby applesauce. He did get upset a few times and gagged a few times but after that he seemed to do alright and I managed to get all of it in him. Now as I was watching his mouth with each bite carefully to try to determine if I saw chewing or still mushing with the tongue against the roof of his mouth, and I THINK I saw him chew a little bit here and there just a couple times but I'm not 100% certain. So I guess I will keep trying this trick and at the least help him practice learning to chew and hopefully it wont be long until I can start shoving other yummy foods into his mouth other than baby food. Does that sound like a good idea to you all? How did you get your LO's to learn to chew food and come off of the pureed stuff? I'm sure he'd love french fries and spaghetti and such. I hope it wont be much longer before I get to introduce him to real food.

Have a great weekend everyone. I gotta get Bryson his bath here soon and get him headed off to bed. Bye for now. :wave:

Thanks guys that means a lot it really does Sam I didn't realise that happened to you I guess all babies grow at different rates and speeds let hope this little bean is hanging on in there and is just a late developer. I've booked a doctors appointment for Monday so I can ask for another scan or bloods to be taken.

As for shoes we're still not walking yet, standing but not walking, so I just went and got him measured and got cheap ones in Mothercare just to put on while he's out in the pram etc. When he starts properly that's when the fun begins. His Uncle bought him his forst pair of camouflage converse which are dead cute so he's wearing those too as he's already growing out of them.

 

[Boothh]

hope everything works out for you pippin xxx

 

[Pippin]

I'm bleeding heavily, it's over

 

[Sam_Star]

Oh pip i dont know what to say im so so sorry xx

 

[Boothh]

pippin iv just messaged you, thinking of you hun xxx

 

[Kimberly28]

Awwww Pip! I am SO sorry!! Big I know how you feel though as I just had a mmc back in June of this year. It sucks for sure. I just hope it goes smoothly for you without complications so you can heal and move forward sooner even though it will take time to do so. If you need to talk, please feel free to PM me! and my thoughts are with you during this horrible heartbreaking time.

 

[jelr]

Aww pip I'm so so sorry, am thinking of you

 

[spidey]

Pippin- I'm really sorry

I love all the shoes everyone has been buying for their LO's. Kira is nowhere close to walking so I'm not planning on buying shoes for awhile. She is very resistant to even trying to walk or stand on her own. The other day I stood her in the middle of the floor and she had great balance, but once she realized she wasn't holding onto anything, she sat down. I can't get her to stand like that again because she buckles her knees and gets mad at me And her crawling has gotten worse since she insists on holding her favorite toys in her hands as she crawls which makes moving nearly impossible... I don't know what to do with her!

Kimberly- I did baby led weaning, so Kira has had few purees so we got all the gagging out of the way around 6 months when she started solids She does get pureed prunes to help her poo, but thats about it. But even now she can't eat everything since she doesn't have those good grinding teeth in the back yet.

Andie- Thats funny about Kiera and the screaming... I'm sure she'll move on to something else soon

 

[Shiv]

On my phone so can't do a big post but wanted to give pippin massive hugs. I will be thinking of you x

 

[ashnbump]

[cleckner04]

Oh no! I'm so so sorry Pip. Nothing I say will help but I am here if you need to vent and talk.

 

[Boothh]

jesse has learnt some new things,

he keeps lifting his hands palm up and doing a shocked face lmao,

and my friends kids were here yesterday and they were fighting over a toy and jesse pointed at them with one finger and went STOP!

now anything he dont like he says stop too and points at us haha,

and i just came in holding his bottle of juice and he pointed at it and went 'botbot!' and keeps holding it up and saying botbot now haha xx

 

[Pippin]

Thanks ladies. Got a scan at 3:15 to confirm things, bleeding has stopped mostly. Will update when I get back.

 

[Pippin]

Yer it's confirm by epu, baby hasn't grown since Sat, still no hb. Just ope this doesn't take too long. Final scan Wed then decide what to do. I'm ok though crying helps feeling bit stronger now at least I know.

Thanks for all your support ladies.
