Hi Ladies,
Quite a lot to catch up on......
OMM - praying and crossing eyes, fingers, toes, legs and arms for you!!!!
Mac - I'm so sorry about your FIL, praying for peace for you and your family. And loads of good luck on the weight loss, with such a precious goal of a FS at the end of the tunnel, we all know you can do it quite easily!
Hi Mbababy - welcome!
Never - my heart is breaking for you - it can be scary, I know, I've had some cramping without bleeding and it freaks me out. I have an appt this coming Monday and I hope to be reassured then. I am very interested in hearing about your friday appt.
Despie - so glad to see you again!
Lava - I know what you mean! we are planning to tell friends after the 10 wk appt Monday and I'm nervous as things do happen. We have been around friends and the opportunity has come up to say something but we have held off on the chance that the 10 wk appt will show nothing....crazy bad thoughts, I know, but we just cant help them sometimes. I hope you are feeling better and the babies are happy, healthy and lovely.
Purple - sorry the witch got you, stupid stupid witch!
butterfly - sorry about the cramps, I've had them bad since I started them at 14 as I have endometriosis.....heating pad and chocolate always helped me (as well as alcohol but I didn't use that at 14!
)
And big
to all the other lovely ladies here!
AFM: I'm ok - the 10 wk appt is coming up Monday and we are both excited and nervous about it! I know this is normal but I have lost about 3 lbs since getting pregnant from the nausea and I am overweight to begin with, so I know it's normal I just want the reassurance from the dr.
As for my mom - i really should just ignore her, I know it, but we used to be so close that this is perplexing. When I told my sister who is closest to me what she said about the shower, she said mom already told her not to throw one and then my best friend called me and told me the same thing. When I asked her why, she said: 1. she doesn't like showers. 2. I and others who have a shower are greedy. and 3. if I throw it myself (as she instructed everyone else not to) then I am being ridiculous and it would show the family in a bad light as everyone would wonder why I am throwing it myself
I told her I didn't care about the gifts I just wanted people together to eat and hang out and celebrate a new life and she said no, even if I had one that said no gifts, she wouldn't go as people would feel obligated to bring gifts and she doesn't believe/like that. SIGH. so much drama. sorry to dump it all and sound like a greedy gal who wants gifts. I am 90% over it, I promise not to go on about it and thankfully I have you all and Charlie who reminds me to ignore ignore ignore! And many big thanks and hugs to those who have been so kind to me about this issue, the cyber shower, mac, made me smile and I needed that! You are all a great group of ladies!
