Praying for a 2012 BFP and 2013 Baby!!!

[30mummyof1]

28 weeks I believe hun not long though

Feeling a little better today so I can moan about my mil now! omg she is driving me nuts! I said I would do Christmas dinner this year as thought it would be nice not to have to go anywhere etc.. and will she just let me do it my way, no! she's interfering with literally every part of it from the cranberry sauce, which one is the best(she's checked them all out) to buying the potato's (we have to have king Edwards) and which Christmas pud we have to have! I know it's a bit strange for her as she is used to doing it but I said to her can you do the gravy. I thought if I give her a job then that will make her feel useful but nope. She's been researching different ways of cooking the turkey even.
Luckily my oh is my side and said he would have a word but I don't want to upset her on the other hand if I say nothing i'll probably end up shouting at her!
sorry for the rant girls!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Oh DG how crap & disappointing hun

Rach what a pain in the rear, I couldn't stand all that interfering! DH defo needs to have a word, though I know what you mean about not wanting to rock the boat!

I feel huge today! Though DH hasn't noticed much difference in the bump size! . I think its maybe more rounded & that's why I feel much bigger... x

30- that is frustrating. Oy.

 

[30mummyof1]

wow, it's been quiet in here this week! everyone must be busy! I have these last two days, preparing for Harry's birthday party and Christmas. Getting the house tidy and clean, my cheeky oh said "why couldn't you be like this all the time"!! what a bloody cheek hey!
Birthday cake is in full flow, 2nd cake in oven ready to sandwich together and icing tomorrow
What's everyone up to this weekend?

 

[deafgal01]

30- my plans consist mostly of getting better. I managed to deal with a crappy stomach all week long on and off, until last night which resulted in something unpleasant happening at work. Thankfully it stopped after only twice so it's fine now but still crappy stomach. I just hope I'm ok with going out tomorrow- shopping with a friend, then a movie and dinner out before my Sunday bowling date. Eh, we'll see what I decide to do Sunday. Might just do the stuff with the girls tomorrow and then use Sunday to rest up.

Hope Harry has an awesome birthday party! The food you're making sounds yummy!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Hi gals, I've been out tonight for a hen do but it was just a meal & 1 drink after (well Coke for me!) tomorrow I'm doing overtime then got girls over for our Xmas night in. Sunday food shopping & I MUST get my Xmas cards posted! Busy weekend for me!

Hope Harry's cake come out well Hun!

DG hope you get well soon

[30mummyof1]

Thanks Mrsp, I will try and post a pic when it's done

 

[MrsMM24]

Hi Ladies, just checking in. No real plans this past weekend. Just preparing for holidays and resting. Seems your weekend went well all of you. I have been slightly distracted by the upcoming gender scan, kinda foreshadows things lately. Just wanted to stop in and say Hiii:wave:

 

[deafgal01]

mrsm!!! Hope gender scan goes well!!!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Mrsm! So exciting! How's everyone's plans for xmas going? I need to wrap all my pressies on Friday night, I used to love wrapping when I was young but now I hate it! Our kitchen a bit of a tip with the building work and the cats coming in and out with mucky paws! but it's going so well, very impressed with the builders so far!

[30mummyof1]

everyone sorry not popped in for a while, been so busy for Harry's birthday and Christmas(we are hosting this year too). Plus we're all ill! :doh:

Goodluck mrsmm for 31st

Night out tomorrow, boys are going to Grandma's then it's oh's birthday on sunday!

Hope everyone is well

 

[MrsPTTC]

Hi Rach thought you'd not been on a while you busy bee! Enjoy your night out & OH's bday We're out for a meal with the neighbours tomorrow night. I'm wrapping presents tonight, it's crap Baby P giving me grief lately! Kicking up a storm, and I feel like it's moved higher today, I'm very uncomfortable and can hardly bend - yet bump still not big so it sounds like it's only gonna get worse! So excited for xmas now! x

 

[30mummyof1]

Change of plan! oh has been diagnosed with kidney stone(s) so now just hoping he can pass it without having to be admitted. What timing hey, 2 days before his Birthday and 4 before Xmas

Luckily got present wrapping sorted weds night, there was a mountain to wrap! think we might have gone a bit over board with Thomas, woops! good luck with yours

Just seen you are now in 3rd tri yes unfortunately does get gradually more uncomfy. I found just thinking of all the little milestones made it easier, Christmas, 30 weeks, 32 weeks(so I could start on raspberry leaf tea!) 35 (not sure why that one!) then 37 full term I hadn't banked on wk 41 and 42 though :doh:

 

[deafgal01]

30- hope the kidney stone passes for your hubby. Yikes, nice timing for it.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Oh no Rach, poor DH! How is he today? Why start raspberry leaf tea at 32 weeks, what's the theory behind it? I know once term its used to help bring on labour...does it taste nice? I have some my friend gave me but daren't try it yet.

Dg how are you? Did you get your xmas shopping in eventually?

Had a great night last night after the trauma of the cat, but he seems ok now, back to the vet tomorrow

[MrsPTTC]

DG, how heartbreaking is Hopeful's birth story just been bawling my eyes out. Can't even begin to imagine giving birth now & my LO not making it

Other girls - this is a BnB lady who gave birth at almost 28 weeks as she had pre eclampsia & the baby had a condition & ended up passing away. She'd had multiple mc's before this baby too. Life is just so unfair for some people

x

 

[30mummyof1]

On no that is heartbreaking, so sad it's not fair

Oh is doing ok, the meds the doc gave him seem to be helping him cope with the pain and he can feel the stone moving down although not out yet, ouch.

Raspberry leaf tea conditions your uterus to work effectively when you are in labour. It's a myth that it can bring on labour however still not advised before 32weeks and take it slowly building up over the weeks. I quite like the taste but saying that I wouldn't drink it at any other times! I would say it worked for me, as I have had 2 pretty easy labours but obviously I don't know any different

 

[deafgal01]

Yes I managed some shopping. Just two more gifts left to buy. Hopefully I won't have too much trouble finding the gifts- one of them is a gift card so piece of cake, but the other one Impossible to find now. I waited too long and now I can't find it.

I know- so sad with hopeful's birth story. It should be a joyful experience, not a sad one where your baby dies.

 

[Flowerbaby]

Hi ladies just dropping by too say Merry Christmas too you all!!!!

Hope you all have a wonderful time xxx

Im still a single mammy, Poppy is doing really well, almost crawling and becoming very vocal and cheeky! As for me and DH, he's still my ex and it looks very permanent. Am coping the best i can and am trying too be strong for me n Pops. Looking into gettin a new home for us in the new year as i dont want too live in our marital home, feel like i cant move on living here as too many memories

Miss you all soooooo much and looking forward too seeing piccies of our newset arrival Baby P, not long now. Love you all and happy christmas girls. Love, hugs and kisses, Claire & Poppy xxx
