I've tried to catch up but cant remember anything!

update again?

I'm ok, just at work so sneaking on quickly, hopefully I will get the internet back by the end of next week! We also dont have TV as there is no TV aerial in our house, there is virgin and sky, tried both with a box and neither worked, so have applied for virgin but wont be set up until 9th of Feb, I am so bored with no internet or TV! We have watched a lot of dvds.

DH will have his two weeks off. We might tack some leave on to it. He needs to get booking his holiday for the year anyway as he nearly all of it and it runs to September. Needs to get in there for the summer! Oh I can't wait! It'll be ace to go camping with the four of us (and maybe dog!). Byron'll be loads of fun on day trips and things now he's really interested in stuff. Though I don't know how we'll all fit on the airbed together!

I forget to say that when I finally got up this morning I found the neighbour has workmen in who had emptied all the rubbish into our garden pending skip. she just thinks she owns it, not that she is only allowed to pass through it. I asked a workman when I took the dog but skip came while I was out and it's all been emptied away now. What a cow though. A normal person would've said but it at the end of my garden as that's my neighbours. Blocking our gate and probably decking the lawn. Ugh. I hate my neighbour.

It's shit being so undervalued isn't it pink?

 

[PeanutBean]

By the way, check out my pumpkin! No way is she a pumpkin!

 

[pinkclaire]

Lol Peanut! I really need to get a fruit one for me, I wonder what my pink bump is?

I think all of us have got crap off our employers havent we! I know hes mad because I came back pregnant, but he has a family, surely he understands that you have to do the best for your family?

 

[PeanutBean]

He's a man isn't he?

 

[pinkclaire]

Yeah fair point!

I HATE not having the internet, I realise how much of my life revolves around it, its very lonely at mine at the moment

 

[gilz82]

I hated not having the internet when we moved.

Have you gotten all settled now Pink?

Hey Ladies :wave:

Great news on the sexy support belt Gilz they really do make a difference as does the duvet under sheet trick madcat After Peanut suggested it I went and bought one and its fab certainly helps me get a good nights sleep although does nothing to stop the nighttime trips to the loo sadly

pink I can sympathise where work is concerned and Peanuts right men are men....my boss has two young children infact one baby but not an ounce of understanding!

At my scan on Saturday it was confirmed Charlie is head down as I thought the same as Oliver (he was head down all pregnancy!) however hes sort of curled to my left with his spine and back on my left side, bum under right rib and his feet go across under my ribs so when I get kicked in my bladder its by his feet It a damn shock when he kicks out and it makes me jump

Well I have had a very productive day
The union meeting was called off because the rep got held up in court dealing with a case so we are re-arranging hopefully for next Wednesday but tbh I know what we have decided and that was the hardest part so its all up from here

I cleaned my living room and kitchen and went into town....I bought 110 always sanitary towels two nighties and matching pj bottoms (wanted a dressing gown but still on my list as didnt see one I liked!) some johnsons top to toe bath stuff for Charlie and some packs of nappy bags and then I went to Tescos and apart from 6 creme eggs, a packet of biscuits and an apple sponge pudding and custard I bought tea Then I did school run, took Oliver for his hair cutting, fed him his tea, vacumed the living room and now am taking a break before I shower him ready for bed and school tomorrow So very very productive...feel like am getting lots done alately

and I came back to an email and I WON A BABY COMPETITION Heres what I won........

[vbaby3]

OOOOH congrats madly,that looks like a very handy wee number for night feeds!!

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Thank you vbaby...I never win anything so am quite chuffed tbh

 

[madcatwoman]

Madly, thats a brilliant win you had!!! well done!!

with baby B lying the way he is, it doesnt half make my lower bump ache as the day wears on, he's like a little ball all curled up down there!, im looking forward to a bath in a min when i can flattern out a bit.

I so hope my duvet works tonight


DH has assembled our cot bed!! i was so pleased when he came home early and said he'd put it together. Quite emotional watching him put it all together, in the bedroom that used to be his childhood room.. i think i'll dress it tomorrow, we have a lovely quilt for it (although i know baby b cant use a quilt for 12 months, plus he'll be in the basket 1st) but it'll look nice.

 

[gilz82]

Congrats on your competition win and productive day Madly

Madcat it is weird but wonderful having a nursery isn't it. I just want the baby to put in it right now!!

 

[PeanutBean]

Hey ladies with kids, we're all out for the sure start grant. They've just changed the rules (again) and decided you only get it if your baby is born before 11th April or your EDD is before then. Nice one Tory scum.

 

[molly85]

I'm alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had to have a nap earlier and man do i hurt. got my schedule planned and what i need to do. I have already been referred to as the team secratary, even had my tea made for me lol.

you said it!, its VERY strange!, i walk past the room now and then and look in...and well, i dont know, nice, but weird!

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Ladies the nursery turns out to be the best room in the house when you start getting it ready for your baby I used to just go into Olivers whilst still pregnant just to touch and look at things

Peanut that sucks I didnt think we would qualify anyways we never qualify for anything and cant believe we missed the HIP by one damn day....my MW wont swing it she says she cant

Well am pretty chuffed with my win as is DH I also ordered online a dressing gown and some more pj pants to go with the ones I bought in town today oh and a new pair of non mat Jeans to wear once I have Charlie Cash will be tight when am on Mat Leave so I have been trying to buy me odd bits now

Oh and I won a baby k all in one going out suit for Charlie on ebay absolute bargain was dispatched today so hoping to recieve tomorrow or maybe Saturday.

Peanut I too have been having sort of a dicky/crampy tummy too I also have an headache at the minute too

 

[sequeena]

Wow madly congrats!!

I'm off to the doctors tomorrow, after the hospital drama I don't particularly want to see any healthcare professional at the minute!

I've lost weight too, my engagement ring keeps slipping

 

[molly85]

madly what size pj bottoms did you get? and how tall are u again?

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

I bought size 20/22 as I am generally a size 20 and my regular ones are lose but the ones I bought draw string in and I go figure am going to get bigger in the next 3mths plenty of space to lounge in cause I cant stand anything to be tight I`m 5`9
