[smiley330]

Ahh i'm so jealous - I want my baby now!!

How are you Steph? Any more twinges? x

 

[steph1505]

Aww i kno...im so jealous!! Eleanor is absolutely gorgeous!!

Nah...no twinges this morning! I *think* im losing bits of my plug tho! But i cant be sure lol!

Im having the most rubbish day ever... My work havent put me on maternity leave so i havent been paid right and i phoned an estate agents there to arrange a viewing of a house that ive had my eye on for about a year now...and its coming off the market!

I kno in the grand scheme of things these r small, but im gutted!! Brandons away for a nap and im lying on the couch feeling sorry for myself!!

How r u 2day? Hows ur SPD? Xxxxxx

 

[smiley330]

Oh Steph - I don't think you are far off from having your baby!!!! So exciting! I have had nothing, I have a feeling this little one is going to make me wait a while!

So what have they paid you for?? That's so annoying when your pay is wrong, you'd think a big company like them would be able to get it right as well!!! What have they said?

Sorry the house you wanted to see is coming off that sucks - i'm sure you will find another, much nicer house though! Then you will be thankful for this one not being on!!

I'm ok thanks, I think bouncing on the ball has angered my spd today, though... I am still going to bounce, I have to feel like i'm doing something constructive!!

I had woken up in a right mood earlier, but i'm all calm now.

CONCRATULATIONS CERTAIN!!!!!!!!!!!

So pleased everything went well - have a speedy recovery but take it easy! Enjoy baby Elenor. Can't wait to see a picture!

Girls - not long now for you both. Sorry to hear you are having a bad day Steph..... but as Smiley says am sure you will find a better house now. FX they sort out your pay. Thanks for updating and letting me know that things went well with Certain xxx

 

[steph1505]

Good evening ladies

Aaaw i still cant believe Certains had her baby!! Aaaaw!!

Smiley - u been bouncing on ur ball 2nite? Im absolutely shattered so im not doing any bouncing 2nite! Hopefully it doesnt do ur SPD any worse 2nite! Lol i kno wot u mean abt doing something constructive lol!

Haha why did u wake up in a mood? Just cos ur pregnant lol? Im like that!

Work havent paid me for the last 2 weeks! I had one week of normal pay then one week holiday, but nothing after that when there should have been 2 weeks maternity pay! I think im down at least £300! Helloooo....i have bloody bills to pay!!!

I have also seen another house that i looove so gonna go view that! Its in an area that i never thot we would be able to afford but we could afford this! It would jst need some decorating!

Ive been feeling awful today! Def having more 'contractions' but i jst dont kno if they are BH! They are more painful than normal but there is no pattern to them & now theyve completely stopped!

How has everyones day been?

Xxxxxx

 

[TrAyBaby]

WOW congrats CERTAIN Im so happy for you and your new family xx

Hope you have a speedy recovery xx

 

[smiley330]

Hello!!

What beautiful weather today

Steph - How are your contractions coming on? Give me a run down!! Glad you've seen another house that you love, I knew there would be a better one!

Hoping - how are you? Do you have a busy weekend planned?

Certain - (just in case you log on - hope the hospital is treating you and Eleanor kindly!)

I went on a long walk this morning with DS and OH - I am regretting it already. Gahhhh the pain!!! It was nice to get out in the sun early though! Now DS is having a nap then OH is taking him out to football. I think I will have to carry on with my knitting! I picked it back up again yesterday - i've got loads left to do, don't think it will be finished in time for the baby!!

x x x x

 

[steph1505]

Hellooooo :wave:

Ah...sorry that ur walks coming back to haunt u! I do have to agree tho, theres nothing nicer than a morning walk in the sunshine! Me and Brandon did that the other morning! I really hope this weather keeps up and its the proper start of Summer!

Aww have u finished knitting anything yet? Wot r u planning on knitting? U know my next question...piccies??!

Hoping - How u doing??

Tray - How are u doing? Hows the pregnancy going?? Not long now

Certain - I know ur probably very very very busy showering Eleanor with cuddles and kisses...but hiiiii

AFM - Definitely not in labour lol! Ive had no contractions all day so I guess it must have just been some sore BH I really dont like this though...last time my waters just broke and that there is a definite sign! This whole "Ooooh was that a contraction??" is rubbish!! When it does happen...i would like a clear sign so that I know!! Haha!

Ive been de-cluttering to the max today!! I just seem to be going round and round in cirlces! I feel like Ive been clearing out this house since I fell pregnant...and yet there is still loads of crap everywhere

xxxxxx

 

[smiley330]

Haha decluttering is a constant mission!! There is always something you can declutter I'm sure! Boooo to the no contractions today, but maybe they'll start up again later - I really don't think it's going to be long for you now though

Oh I am still knitting that blanket! I kind of hit a wall before Christmas and kept thinking I've got loads of time left to finish it, well that time has vanished and I now need to do some speed knitting quick sharp! I'll take a pic of what I've done so far and post it later tho!

x x x x

 

[steph1505]

Lol everyone keeps saying to me that they think il have had baby by next weekend! As much as id love that to be true, i dont want to get my hopes up lol!

Aaaw i wish i knew how to knit! A hand knitted blanket will be beautiful!! Oooh yay i cant wait to see the picture!!

Has ur pain eased up any? I hope so

Xxxxx

 

[smiley330]

Oh that would be nice if you had the baby before next weekend wouldnt it!! FX!

Nope, the walk definitely angered the spd and i'm like a little old woman hobbling around now. Don't think i'll be doing walks like that again!!

Do you have any nice plans for this eve?

OH is out tonight so I plan on having a bath and surrounding myself with treats!! (oh and knitting.... I must knit!)

x x x x

 

[steph1505]

Aw nooo the sooner squiggle makes an appearance, the better!! Must be so sore!!

Oooh ur saturday nite sounds loooovely! I really wish we had a bath! Showers just arent the same!! Wot kind of treats u gonna have? Mmmmm!

Well my OH finishes work at 6 so...hes gonna walk into a massive pile of bin bags that need to get taken to the local dump! So he can do that haha! Not really got much exciting planned! We were gonna get a chinese but dont wanna be wasting any money just incase the rest of my wages take a while to come in! Lol! And saturday night TV just isnt what it used to be lol!

My friend was out drinking last nite and was sending me drunken texts at like 10:30...while i was lying in bed! I turned to OH and said "remember the days when 10:30 meant the night was still young?" Haha! Im too young to feel this old haha!!!

Xxxxxx

 

[smiley330]

I know, I am so ready for Squiggle to come out now! I feel bad as it's still quite early, I keep forgetting! I am enjoying these last couple weeks though with not being at work and only having one child to run around after, so need to just remind myself that another couple weeks means I get a bit more rest before he comes!

Not sure exactly what treats yet, crisps, chocolate - that kind of thing

Haha I went out last night for something to eat with my friend - we went out at 7.30 and were back before 9!! Rock and roll!! It is crazy how old I feel, especially looking back at how I used to be. Whilst we were out she mentioned getting something planned for when baby arrives (the first night out type thing) I couldn't think of anything worse right now than a night out drinking.... A nice night in with a glass of red and some food - now we're talking!

Ah your OH will love that My OH hates when I go on a mission, he always moans about having so much crap and taking it up to the dump!!

Did your work say they were sorting out your money? x x x

 

[smiley330]

The blanket so far...

I might add that I actually cannot knit, I just like to think I can!! It's not perfect by any stretch of the imagination - the lines are wonky, there's threads, holes and knots all over the place on the back, and it's a right pain in the arse to put together!!! But I'm hoping it will be one of those "thought that counts" type projects!

x x x x x

 

[steph1505]

Omg!! That looks amaaaazing!! Im so impressed that uv got different shades of blue wool! I was expecting it to be one colour! Wow! I like the fact that it isnt perfectly in line, it makes it look more hand knitted! Im majorly impressed!!

Lol my god the thought of a night out is horrific! High heels all night...oh no!!! Lol alcohol and a chinese in the house sounds way more appealing!!

Yeah work have said i should have the rest of the money by next friday but i wont hold my breath!!

Hope ur enjoying ur night! I totally forgot Britains Got Talent started 2nite! Xxxxx

 

[smiley330]

Haha thanks! I really didn't think it through though, each of those squares has to be knitted separately, then they have to be knitted (or sewn) together - it's soooooo time consuming and there's so much more room for error (which is evident!) - I should have just knitted one colour - then it would have just been one continuous piece..... Oh well, we live and learn!

Yeah I forgot about BGT as well - i'm enjoying Simon being back, and love Walliams! I watched the Voice before, did u see that? I quite like it!

Hooray for something to watch on a Saturday again! x x x
