Modo, yeah Roh is on the 98th %tile for height, only 50th for weight though, he's definitely going to be like his dad!

Mork we aren't supposed to have children in at the scans either, but i called ahead and told them we would have no choice at all but to bring him along. They said it was ok, i think because he's so young, they mostly worry about having to give you bad news infront of older toddlers and pre-schoolers i think. If Roh had really kicked off OH would have taken him outside though.

I was also always on the 98th percentile as a baby and child and Ben says he was always taller than most the boys in his class (MIL doesn't remember about his percentiles). Bobby is on the 91st percentile for weight. It's why I stopped going to get him weighed because the HVs would weigh him but not measure him so they would insinuate that I was overfeeding him If only they would measure him they would see that it was proportionate with his height.

Big hugs H&F you've been through so much. It's a shame Dave's Dad is putting on you, but also quite flattering, can you talk to Dave about it??

Mork - I think one looks pink and one looks blue, I think it's bordering more on one slightly though! Good point about the later scan, they though we might have had to have gone back a week later because it was so curled up and I was like ok. OH was like let's just get someone else to look so we don't have to come back - duh.

We weren't allowed children at the scan, but there was one in the waiting room. Luckily the in laws had Will, although some of the stuff they come out with conerns me. Like can he have a cough sweet - urm no flipping way!! I thought he would put the china egg cups down on the stone floor gently - duh, we only have one left now!!! I was telling my MIL that it's a shame that Will is now trying to ram the dog with his new pushchair and it worries me that it'll make the dog flip, so they have to be separated. She then said oh FIL was showing him that - sorry! grrrrrrrrrr

Mork thats awful about not being able to take T to scan - was that QEQM?

Sorry for going awol, really struggling at the moment. Kerry and I are separating. Its all a bit messy and emotional and I'm not really coping. Its going to be so drawn out too as we need to do the house up before selling.

I'm sorry I havent replied to you all, sending lots and lots of love to you all. I have been reading and running. x x x x

[maybebaby3]

Amy I'm so sorry to hear that

 

[emera35]

Amy, I'm sorry to hear everything is so stressful for you I hope evrything works out for the best for you xxx

Had a bit of an alarming afternoon/evening yesterday as I thought my waters had broken, so was in the delivery suite. Turned out my waters hadn't broken and just how baby was positioned on my bladder was making me wee involuntarily when they did the trace though they picked up that I was having contractions so ended up there for ages until they decided it wasn't going anywhere. Been told to rest again, so doing my best to

Omg emera that must have been no scary glad it wasn't you waters

Emera thank goodness it wasn't your waters, rest up!! Easier said than done I know....

Modo - lush bump picture, mine is about the same, been feeling huge this time so relieved.

Hope you all have a nice evening, back to work for me tomorrow, only for one day thankfully. xxxxx

 

[Mork]

Amy-hugs hugs and more hugs xxxxxxxxx
Emera-thank goodness it wasn't your waters! REST!!!! Xxx
Modo-that is just how my bump looked with t!!!! Although it could be because I had a very similar top to that!! Gorgeous xxx
Everyone else-hope your weekends are good. We had a friend round today and the two girls played so well-no fighting over the toys so proud of my girl xx

 

[A3my]

Thanks so much for your support x x x

emera - you have such a tinker of a uterus! I hope you are properly resting. What a relief you were just peeing yourself

Modo - you look beautiful, fantastic bump! I cant believe how pregnant all you ladies are getting!!

Mork - well done T for sharing

My lovely daughters cleaned my lounge and dining room today as a surprise when I popped out, so proud of my girls

Today Alex decided to rip all the flaps out of his lift the flap books

 

[Sarahwoo]

Amy Oliver did that to his, I stuck them all back in with tape, they look a mess but I don't care Your girls are sooooo lovely - they must get it from you

Emera take it easy! I had a trip like that to the maternity unit when I was pregnant

Modo gorgeous bump!!

I'm feeling all left behind with you all been so pregnant now

I had so much more to say but I've been doing admin all night and my head is fried

Oliver bit me yesterday We were shopping (in the middle of Ralph Lauren ) and he was messing about so I picked him up. He was pretty tired, he screamed and then grabbed my hair, pulled my head to his and bit my cheek really hard. OUCH! He fell asleep soon after and I know it was just because he was tired / frustrated / didn't want to be picked up. I didn't tell him off - I did shout 'ouch' pretty loud though. Is that the best thing to do? My mum was there and she agreed that he wasn't doing it to be naughty. I just wasn't sure how to handle it. He's bit me a few times (always when he's tired) but not like that - he really sunk his teeth in, i had tooth marks and everything

Apart from that everything here is good, I'm just so busy with work / house work / all the normal stuff. I will try to come on more, I know I haven't been around much this week

 

[emera35]

Sarah, Roh occasionally does stuff that is really painful / naughty when he's tired, i tend not to tell him off, its not really worth it i think. I'd say you did the right thing, either what you did or just ignoring it is probably the best in that situation

Amy, Roh does that to his books too, it drives me mad I do the same as Sarah and keep sticking things back together until they totally disintegrate Your girls are so sweet

Modo, fab bump lady, you look so slim and well!

Mork, its lovely when they actually play nicely together and don't beat eachother round the head and scream over snatched toys, isn't it!

Well, i know i should be resting, but i've just spent hours going through all the kitchen cupboards Seriously my nesting this time is stronger than the food cravings, i literally have to clear out!!! It looks great though, very pleased with the results

 

[maybebaby3]

emera - put down the mop, broom, vacuum, duster etc and SIT DOWN!

amy - your girls are a credit to you

mork - well done to T for sharing. Owen is not very good at sharing. we took him to a nursery visit and he kept saying 'my toy' about everything if any child came near a toy he was playing with

sarah - are you getting broody? when Owen bites (not very often and mainly he bites when bf) i say 'no' firmly to him.

well back to work tomorrow and also the start of my diet as I have put on 5kg over the last 3 months or so I'm going back on weight watchers but not going to meetings just using the books at home! 4 other friends are also going on a diet with me so we're keeping each other motivated hopefully!
