Praying for a 2012 BFP and 2013 Baby!!!

[MrsPTTC]

Ooh sounds like an invite from the mechanic Claire! I'm watching this space! Good on x DH, better late than never!

As for my weekend...I'm off tomorrow & going out for an early tea with work pals. I'm 8-4 overtime at work on sat. But the fun begins with the extension tomorrow as the builders will be knocking through to the kitchen next week so we're having to empty the whole kitchen! I'll be living out the dining room the next 2 weeks as DH & his kitchen fitter friend are fitting the kitchen so it can only be done on weekends. So plenty of ready meals & takeaways for me ha x

Yes mrsmm Harry has taken a few steps, still waiting for him to start walking!

Not doing much this weekend, I want to stay on track with the diet so I don't want to be tempted yet!. Have a few things going on in Feb but by then I should be much further into it hopefully. fx

Know what that is like mrsp, messy times ahead! but it will be worth it in the end i'm sure

Hi ladies!

Uggghhhh mess mess mess MrsP! At least its all happening while your still preggos and not just as Baby P arrives! How long will it take too complete?

Ahhh Rach, doing fab with your diet hun! Good on you!

Im finally on Facebook girls!!! Balls to the XDH who never wanted me too go on it! Think im gona like it too be honest! So my name is Claire Salvin and ive currently got my profile pic as Poppy so come and join me!!! I need too get a good updated piccy of me to use as my profile pic, especially if there may be boys on there who i become friends with! Hee Hee

 

[30mummyof1]

Thanks for the support hun, mean's a lot

Yay, I'm off to try and find you! Exactly, and plenty of relationships start on the internet now as well!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Found you Claire! Have sent friend suggestions for kendra Jodie & DG too! Mrsmm are you on Facebook?

Claire the build is half way through, they started mid dec & 'should' be finished by 18th jan! they're doing the roof & windows at the minute & will be knocking through to the kitchen prob middle next week. Dh & his friend think it will take them 2-3 weeks to finish the kitchen units & potentially 4 weeks to have it completely finished

Aww Rach Harry taking his steps, how cute!

[MrsPTTC]

Btw Rach I've been meaning to ask you about hypnobirthing, how did you get into it & what does it entail? x

 

[30mummyof1]

No probs hun, I do really advocate it as I was really scared of giving birth, bit of wimp re: medical things and I have now had 2 births pain med free!
I had a lady come to my house when I was pregnant with Thomas about 20wksish. It really helps if your dh/oh gets on board with it as well.
So alongside the sessions, I read the book twice and listened to the cd's as often as I could. You learn self hypnosis techniques, such as being able to turn off the pain and picturing different things in your mind. The more detail to the pictures the better because it's obviously taking your mind off what's actually going on!
With Thomas's birth once I was at the hospital and could relax, I can say I was not in pain just feeling very intense pressure. With Harry's I did feel pain, but the birth was considerably quicker and the pain was still bearable.

I've used the techniques in a few situations now, the stitches after, dentist etc..

MrsP which names am I looking for? Obviously I get a few requests that I do not approve quickly or without a note saying how I know them. Claire I found ya.

Weekend plans well went out for sushi with a girlfriend, her boyfriend, and my husband last night, drank a whole bottle of wine. Woo! Today I have a birthday party for a 8 years old kid. My nephew! That is all the plans I've made. Hope you all have a good weekend!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Ha no DG I meant I suggested you all for Claire, no-one else

Thanks for the info Rach! It sounds really good but not keen on the sessions with a therapist, & I don't think DH would get involved as he doesn't want to come to the anti-natal classes (though I have a preggo friend I can go with.) Do you think just the books & cd's would help on their own?

Claire, loving your Facebook piccies. Have to say you look nothing like I expected I thought you were blonde or had light brown hair & were fair skinned

x

 

[deafgal01]

MrsP I thought the same of Claire regarding her hair. I was surprised that it is darker than I thought. I love her pictures too! ah makes sense now, I was thinking I had already added you a while ago haha!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Yes DG, a couple of months ago I think! Just when I requested Claire it come up to suggest friends for her so I did it for other people on the thread x

 

[30mummyof1]

omg, I managed to convince my oh to go on holiday for a week!! He's a bit of a workaholic so it really is a big milestone!
Staying in the uk, which is fine by me because with 2 lo's I didn't fancy going on a plane too much. After dismissing everywhere I came up with, he managed to find a castle to stay in! really reasonably priced too.
So we're staying in a castle for a week! Thomas is going to love it

 

[deafgal01]

Yay a family vacation is great!

 

[MrsMM24]

Ooooh Family vacay sounds soooo lovely! I won't be planning or seeing one of those until 2014!!


Yes, I am on FB, rarely but there. I already have KENDRA and JODI where are you girls??

:wave: Hi Ladies, been away a little, one of our cats got out of the house Friday and DD and DW are torn up heavily, I am too as he was my Mother's Day surprise 4 years ago, but I have had pets before and they haven't so I have spent my time comforting, and then sulking and worrying later....

 

[30mummyof1]

Hope your cat comes home soon mrsmm, must be so upsetting im on fb, Rachel fallows

 

[MrsPTTC]

MrsMM, so sorry to hear about your cat going walkabouts Hope it comes back soon. One of my cats (the tom) disappears for a few days at a time, though we are used to it now it's still worrying! I'll PM you my email address so you can find me on facebook

Rach, re this hypnobirthing I'm going to buy a book & CD as I've read good reviews from people who've not had the sessions. Is this one the best? https://www.hypnobirthing.co.uk/hypnobirthing_a_celebration_of_life.shtml I can get it off amazon reasonably cheap.

I had another mw appt today and all is well with Baby P, it's now head down. She was shocked by how much weight I've put on (22-24lbs!!) but said it's normal, and bump measuring fine, though is "compact."

[MrsPTTC]

Oh and Rach, nice one about the holiday! UK or Barbados a break is a break! x

 

[30mummyof1]

Yep that's the one hun! try and read it twice if you can, you take in different things the 2nd time.

 

[30mummyof1]

That sounds just right hun, as you were small to start with.

 

[Flowerbaby]

Awww holiday sounds lovely Rach! Well done for talking OH into going!! When are you going away and whereabouts is the castle? Are you renting the whole castle out? Awww just sounds dreamy! xx

MrsMM sorry too hear about the cat.....if you want too look me up on FB, ive just joined and my name is Claire Salvin, i have picture of Poppy as my avatar or whatever you call it on FB, just trying too get the hang of it but so loving being on there, why didnt i join earlier!!!

MrsP yes im dark haired and dark skinned! Hmmm...not a blondy as you thought! EEEEkkk Baby P is head down, thats great news, at least LO is not breech like Poppy was that was a nightmare, im gutted i never got too have a vaginal birth with her.. feel like i really missed out, i was into all that hypnobirthing and got a great book which i recently resold on EBAY, shame because id have given you it! Go look on ebay they much cheaper on there it was The Mongan Method i read, great book! I so wanted a waterbirth with no medical intervention as i was all prepared with my hypnobirthing and meditating but ended up having a section! Gutted!

Well not much happening with the XDH, he had Poppy overnight on sunday and she was up nearly all night, he was knackered the next day, welcome too my world wanker, ha ha, well done Poppy!! Weve had the house valued and think it will go on the market in about 2 weeks as i still have one room too decorate which i want too get done before people come too view, it just needs a coating of paint on it so not too much. So will just see what happens

Its fab speaking too you all on FB and seeing that we are all real people on there, i have made some really lovely friends in you all and thanks girls for not mentioning my split on FB as its not common news with my work colleagues as yet! Love yas xxx
