Waiting and waiting...2016 mommies-to-be!

[kksy9b]

Got it!

Yay Aidens!! That is exciting.

I also get more broody around the holidays. Especially as we announced last Christmas and I just keep remembering all the excitement. Hopefully this time next year I will be pregnant again!!

I also signed up for my short term disability today so I can get paid for some of my maternity leave. I was told I have to wait until after February 1st before getting pregnant. I am still hoping to wait until the summer to start trying but we have discussed NTNP as early as May!!

 

[aidensxmomma]

Thanks ladies

kk - We're still planning on actual TTC come October, if I'm not pregnant by then. So it works to keep me on that list

bakedbean - I think I just got worried because it was such a shock. I remember that I worried when I got the green light to TTC my youngest too. I'm definitely getting more excited than nervous now.

krissie - that would be really exciting to get to start NTNP in May. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Today I burnt my tongue on hot chocolate I bought today. I was heating it up at lunch in the microwave and took a sip right when I took it out. I feel bad for burning it.

Hello everyone, I hope you dont mind me crashing in your lovely thread. I am joining the WTT 2016 group- January 2016 to be exact. Time will fly, i just know it. I am mummy to DS almost 7, and DD just turned 3. We are both very excited about the prospect of having a surprise baby this time- since we found out both sexes with the first two. It has also been a year long battle with heart and brain for both of us , as to whether to have a third child but I cant shake it, and it creeps into conversation far too much not too now.. we're even choosing names! And all I see whilst out and about are babies and pregnant ladies- it's like they follow me So we are definitely back in for the baby game, but we will have to wait a little while, since we have booked lapland for next Christmas with the kids and I am NOT missing the opportunity to meet Father Christmas
Anyway, Its nice to be back on BnB again and I look forwards to getting to know you all

 

[krissie328]

Welcome babydust! I know the time is just flying by. Your trip next year sounds like so much fun!!

 

[babydustcass]

Thank you! ive just seen how long this thread has been going for you guys and I bet it hasn't even felt like that long at all. With any luck the next year will fly by just as quickly as this one did.

 

[MissN8]

Lapland would be amazing cass lucky you. This year has gone quick it will be the same next year then it will be our time yay

 

[babydustcass]

We're really looking forwards to it, we haven't told the children and wont until we are on the way there. They will be 4 and 7.5 at the time so its going to be magical for them.

I am so glad to have people to share the wait with, its going to make it much easier. I am an sculptress and specialise in life size baby sculptures, so every day I am surrounded by life like sculpts.

 

[aidensxmomma]

Welcome babydust!

Sharing the wait with others definitely makes it easier. It's nice to have people who understand what you're going through to talk to. I hope your wait goes by quickly!

Hello and welcome! I've added you to our list (the second post). Let me know if your dates change and I will update! That will be a lot of fun having a surprise...my DH and I have thought about it for our next one but I don't know if I would have the patience to wait!

 

[skycastles]

Aidensxmomma yay! Looking forward to exciting news from u..
I've crazy busy these days, doing overtime on weekends, but I'm determined to get my Xmas tree up tomorrow. Sometimes I don't know if I can fit a baby into my schedule.. But I'm so wanting one! Does anyone worry about the time you'll get to spend with your OH once you have a child?
Have a good weekend ladies and hi to all the recent additions!

Hi, that sounds like an interesting career! What material do you make the sculptures with?

So today I went out for supper with my dad and he started complaining that the service was too slow. The restaurant was pretty busy so that's why it was a bit slow plus there's people ordering for take out. He thought that people who were ordering were getting more attention than people eating in. The waitress told him that wasn't true and that the orders were made before we ordered but he didn't believe that. To make a long story short, we got our food to go and before I left I apologized to the waitress. I'm never going back the that restaurant with him again. It was embarrassing that he made a big deal out of nothing.

I worry a lot about the time I'll get to spend with my OH once we have a baby. It's been just us for as long as we've been together since my kids don't live with me at the moment, and I really enjoy it (our time together, not my kids being gone ). Even with it being just us, sometimes it's hard to get time together because my OH works nights (6pm - 6am) and so he's often sleeping during the day and gone at night. I think getting our couple time in together is something we're going to have to work for a little, scheduling little dates and getting a sitter once in a while. I know with my ex, we didn't have too bad of a time getting couple time in, even with three kids. We'd just spend some time together watching movies or playing video games after the kids were in bed. So I'm hoping to have that easy of a time getting time with my OH, even with his hectic work schedule.

So today I went out for supper with my dad and he started complaining that the service was too slow. The restaurant was pretty busy so that's why it was a bit slow plus there's people ordering for take out. He thought that people who were ordering were getting more attention than people eating in.

I can see why you would be embarrassed. Sorry you had to go through that.

Hi ladies
Tonight I dreamt that I was pregnant and I told my mom and she was soo excited and told everyone she knew, haha

Well I hope that when I am pregnant and do tell her that she will be excited, but no so much that she'd immediately tell everyone

Yeah I'm not sure how much more of his debbie downer attitude I can take.

I have a step dad like that, we live quite far apart so dont see my parents very often so when we do we make the most of it. Going out for dinner is always slightly amusing and embarrassing at the same time. The last time we went out to eat, we chose our favourite local pub/ restaurant. Its a quaint little place that mainly serves for good grub with a fantastic french chef who happens to be our friend too. With this in mind we obviously voiced it as a great place to eat and always found the food delicious! True to fashion my step dad has to pick holes in our choice of venue because of our praise, hes the biggest 'Debbie D' I know. Firstly he starts by huffing over the menu, nothing that catches his eye immediately. There is TONS to choose from including a specials menu. Secondly he starts asking the waitress to go to the chef and ask exactly the uncooked weight of each meat served within the mixed grill. She comes back and hes just says 'NO! not enough steak there. - If you want steak, HAVE STEAK!!!
In the end, he chose his meal in protest and opted for a ploughmans lunch- he couldn't have possibly picked anything more shit on the menu if he tried and of course, he was unhappy with it when it arrived because it was the crappest thing on the menu.

I use a flesh coloured polymer clay, its a plastic base and the least messy I have found so I don't necessarily need to be in the studio working, I can happily sit in the living room or anywhere in the house.

Oh god that would be embarrassing. He should just stay home if he's going to be that much of a debbie downer.


I haven't seen kiki post for a while. I hope she's ok.
