Lucky thread

Hi leinz! Can't believe how soon Zoela turns 1! Happy anniversary by the way Hun! Hope you have a lovely celebration!

Yay mrs d not long til V day!!

I'm hoping my boss doesn't bother about me not telling her, usually we tell straight away coz of the work we do.
 
Wow Leinz can't believe Zoela is almost 1. Time flies so fast in baby land.

Bailey I tried giving Zach a dummy at 3:30 and he fussed a bit but went back to sleep! Did the same at 5 and he then went to 7 so he went 11-7 without a feed! Yippee!! Still tired from battling to get him to settle with the dummy but hoping it only takes a couple of days for him to learn there's no bottle now so no point in waking! Fxd!

It's Zachs first swimming lesson today, so excited!!
 
That's great news cupcake. I didn't know Zach took a dummy, as much as I'm not looking forward to the battle to take it away in future I'm thankful for it at the mo lol! Soon you'll find that if he wakes as soon as you pop the dummy in he'll settle. Me and df are trying at the moment to remember that just because she may wake up or is moving a lot doesn't mean anything and to ignore her unless she's screaming. Sometimes df hears her banging against the cot and gets up to go to her but I think that makes her wake up properly so we need to just focus on when she's crying and otherwise leave her.

Df is in the dog house this morning, I was just going through our money and making sure all bills are covered etc, and noticed that when df paid for petrol on my card the other day it was more money than we'd put in (meaning he'd bought fags) which has really annoyed me! I know it's only £4 but it's the principle, my maternity pay finishes in 2 weeks and it's coming up to Christmas so we need to be very careful, he gets his £20 every week plus his tips (which can also be another £20) so I figure that's plenty of money for his fags and then more to spare for whatever he wants so think he's just taking the mick spending more when I don't get a penny to spend on myself! So he's just run me a bath and is folding laundry in an attempt to sweeten me up I think!
 
Yeah he does have a dummy since about 3 weeks! Not all the time but he seems to like it more and more! I'm hoping last night wasn't a fluke and we can make it the pattern now, gonna have to feed in more of a schedule in the day to ensure he gets all his bottles in then and doesn't need the 4am one.

Urgh men and money. Hubby really annoyed me the other day, his mum has a bad back and was saying about how she is going to a chiropractor now and how expensive it is, and he turned round and offered to pay for some sessions for which we definitely can't afford with me on mat leave! I had to justify why Zach needed the footmuff for his cat seat the other day, and I'm still waiting for the bunch if flowers you're supposed to get from ur hubby when you give birth to his child, let alone a present! I went mad, his parents can afford it themselves and if anyone should help them pay for it it's his sister whose a surgeon!! They are all crap and thoughtless with money Hun!!
 
Leinz that has gone quickly I can't believe zoela is almost 1

Cupcake yay for Zachs first swimming lesson today and for last nights success without a bottle

Bailey and cupcake boo for your men being crap with money, mine just goes out any buys whatever he wants when he wants it too, whereas I always think now do I really need that
 
Men eh ladies? Can't live with them can't live without them lol! It's a good job I'm overly cautious though coz if I wasn't we'd never pay our bills lol!
My df makes stupid statements like that, MIL bought 3 games for the twins birthday and of course as there's 2 of them she said do we want to buy one and just need to get another, so he said yes! Well you know me, I'm a bargain hunter and an ebayer, we now owe his mum £15 for this game whereas I could have got it for well cheaper! Grrrr!

Ooooh let us know how the swimming goes cupcake! We are hopefully going next week (we keep saying this!). I hope it wasn't a fluke last night too Hun, I don't think so though, but if he does end up having a feed don't worry too much, Emilia still needed one every now and again when nothing else would settle her. We just always tried to settle her any other way we could before getting a bottle.
Oh and don't start me on the present/flowers for giving birth, I got nothing too, despite hinting profusely beforehand and for weeks afterwards and even said "you never even said thank you for giving birth to your daughter or even bought me anything" and he said "I will I will and I am thankful" and that was it, still nothing!

Mrs d it's annoying isn't it that they can do whatever willy nilly when we have to think twice isn't it?
Any house news?

Oh cupcake whilst I remember, how are you finding having to style your hair every day now with the bob? I'm seriously thinking of doing it this week too! Sick of it looking like a rats nest and not bothering.
 
I'm not holding my breath that my hubby will buy me anything either, but we shall see.
Nope no news on the house front but we have a viewing tomorrow so fingers crossed. Unless we get a cash offer tomorrow then there is no chance of it completing this side of Christmas :(

I really don't know what to go with my hair either, it desperately needs highlighting but hubby doesn't want me to whilst pregnant :(
 
I think he enjoyed it! He didn't cry anyway and even got dunked under water! A faff getting yourself and a baby dried after swimming but it's worth it if he enjoyed it and my mum came to help today.

I reminded him the other day that he had promised me something sparkley when the baby was born (not that I really need it but some flowers would have been nice!) and he said he thought he got me a charm for my pandora, i had to remind him that that was for my birthday.

Bailey re my hair, I only wash it twice a week ish, and it takes about 15 mins to blow dry it. Then between washes I pin my fridge back and use dry shampoo etc.
 
Aw I'm glad he enjoyed it :)
What if they have an accident in the pool? :blush:

I wish I could leave mine but I must sweat a lot during the night so it needs washing each morning or else it looks really greasy :(
 
I'm with you on that one hun - my hair can't be left for longer than a day between washings or I look like I've dipped my head in a fryer. Horrid.

I decided to let my boss know as I'm probably going to be scanned at 6-7 weeks, then again before the 12 weeks - just waiting for a call back from the RM clinic at the Royal Berkshire. He was hilarious - really excited for us. He didn't get my Dr Who joke though. (How am I like Dr Who...?) :sulk:
 
Aw so glad he had such a good time! Were you nervous when you dunked his head?

Oh poop mrs d I'm sorry it's not looking good for a move before Christmas, fingers crossed for that cash buyer!!

I wash my hair twice a week too but it's the waviness and frizz that will be my problem. I'll have to straighten it again every day which I'm not sure I'll have time for and then it will just be a mess that can't be put in a pony tail lol!
 
BBs: EDD is July 30th - which is freaky as I was born on the 28th and my mother was born on the 29th! Going to be an expensive month for everybody now :haha:

MrsD: I'm both really looking forward to it and absolutely dreading it. Both of my MMCs were picked up by ultrasound - one at 12 weeks and the other at 10 weeks. Still, have new meds now, things will be fine. They will be fine, they will be fine... [-o<

How are you guys?
 
Mrs d they wear a swim nappy and then an over nappy made if wetsuit material over that!

Well he's in bed asleep, bathed and fed by 6:30pm so it's knackered him out!!
 
Bailey the instructor dunked the babies!

Espero both my Mcs were missed ones picked up on scans. Hugs Hun, I known hard and unbelievably nervewracking scans are after mmc. You will be 3rd time lucky like me x
 
Evening ladies,

Can you guys please help me stop stressing? Just got a barely noticeable pos on a Sainsbury's test - like practically negative. I have drunk approx 2l of liquid today and my pos was from FMU - but I still feel scared. Should I....? :cry:
 
Espero don't panic Hun and put the tests away!! Repeat after me "I will not pee on any more sticks".
They are rubbish at measuring progression Hun, you've drink loads of water, it's not FMU and tests are different even within the same brand. Don't worry at all Hun, a pregnancy test is only designed to measure whether or not you are pregnant not how far along you are so please please don't take that test to mean anything. In fact I think I said the same thing to cupcake when she got her BFP with Zach if my memory serves me right.

Just take a deep breath, wooosaaaaa (if you've seen bad boys 2 you know what that means) and try to relax and take it easy Hun :hugs:
 
Plus there's no such thing as practically negative Hun, a positive is a positive Hun :-) try not to worry I know it's hard but don't be scared, it will all be ok and it doesn't mean anything xxxx
