We're all in this together!

instead of putting your hook through both strands of wool (one stitch), you just put the hook through the strand at the back instead

this is how they make ribs like a cuff - this cardigan also has matching nappy cover

this is a pic of the first one i did of this pattern

im now doing blue cardigan with white trim and white nappy cover with blue trim so it can be mixed with something else if necessary

its all done in one piece and at the end you just sew the edges together - but again she will explain in detail - there is also a video at the bottom on the page if you prefer to follow that

Yeah I think I know what you mean now hun, on the link you gave me, there was a picture that pointed to front loop and back loop etc.

I love it hun, love the colours too! Can't wait to see your finished product :D

I'll probably watch the video a couple of times before attempting this, then I'll get a rough idea of what I'm supposed to be doing. Thank you for the link hun :hugs: xxx
 
OMG laura the cake is amazing. :D looks really pretty. oww and thx hun. x x x

Awwww natt a boy well i was wrong lol, wouldnt it be mad if teenah and kt was having a boy to. :D really cute name hun. :D cant wait to see bump pic. Yer me and honey are great thx sweetie, getting on just fine. So busy lol. thanks for asking. x x x

Thanks Hun I hope they like it! The last of the 80cupcakes are in the oven too! Might get cleaned up before I finish decorating them tho lol

Teenah's having a girl! Lol so I reckon kt will too! Then sarah'll have twins, one of each, you'll have another girl and pinky'll have a boy so it's all even :) ......til we start on the next ones :haha:

Xxx

You know..Matt and I have already made the decision that my birth control days are wel and truly over. We will be going in for a second as soon as I drop the first. We dont want to wait :P I think with the difficulty ive had trying to get to the first we dont want to wait and then have it take away the chance for another. Plus, theres early menopause running in my family. My grandmother and sister were both in their early 30s when it started and as a result my sister couldnt have any more children despite wanting another. So my starting on the next one is gunna be fast!

LOL at twins....you know id LOVE twins. I think id better take the boy though because I 100000% think Pinky will get the little girl :D
 
There's no way I'm going back mat leave. My boss is the biggest of all bitches! Not long left!

Oh thats a beautiful cake hun, well done!! Hope ur feeling better tday, dont let work get u down im sure their not worth it!

I just had a quote through from my florist jeez they want double the cost i budgeted for. Crrraazzzzyyy!!

Thanks chick :) delivering it this afternoon once all the cupcakes are done too so we'll see if they like it lol

I really don't thin I'll be able to work past 29wks, especially with my hips now aswell! They're normally ok in the morning but not today :nope:

I haven't even looked at florists yet lol it is stupid what they charge for some flowers! I'm hoping cause I want all sunflowers it won't be too bad but knowing my luck they'll be out of season and need importing from somewhere exotic lol what flowers you going for?

Xxx

Since youre having the wedding in the summer youre right on track with the sunflowers as they bloom in the summer :D They are lovely and a nice idea for a theme!

When I get married I want giant daisies..I love them so! And want some smaller ones entwining in my hair :D

Yeah I wouldnt be surprised to see you off early. My mate is just a little further on than you and shes been having lots of problems with that condition too. I think shes packing work up. She did say that one of her friends had given her some kind of support that was meant to help with it. Perhaps you should do some google research!

Oh sunflowers are beautiful my cousin just had them for her wedding lovely summery flower. Im havin red roses for myself and cake but red/white roses with a mixure of berries, thistles, ferns and ivy for bridesmaids table centrepieces and room deco. As its a christmas wedding :happydance:

Im feeling fab tday no cramps or bleeding still and plenty of pregnsncy symptoms so im a happy chappy. As for the sex of baby i wont want to find out but if he/she is still going strong down there id be happy either way. Prob bcoz its my first xxx

See...everything is fine chick! Its so common to get a little bleed around the time that your period would normally have been. And plus as well, the placenta is starting to really grow and attach so that could have caused some implantation bleeding too.

Tomorrow everything will be fine, just you wait and see!

And also...that theme sounds gorgeous too! I always fancied a christmas wedding...these days Im just resigned to the fact that it will happen before I give birth lol. Matt and I have an agreement that I want to be married when I actually have it cos I want all our names to be the same on the birth certificate :D Plus its not just that...id be married tomorrow if i could. I feel like ive been engaged long enough now hehe :D

YAY for team yellow! Will be the same for us too when our time comes
 
thanks natt :-) I've made 80cupcakes too lol they were chuffed with them all so im happy :)

"We aim to please" LOL

I wish I didn't have to go back at all, im thinking I'll see what its like and if its really bad or stressing me I'll get signed off until im 29wks then go on mat leave. I cried at the thought of work last night :( xxx

I think you should make a doctors appointment and speak to them about your options. Especially with this pain youre having too. They may well actually advise you to stay off because of it

Thanks Sarah, i love christmas, we met in January 8 years ago and he proposed christmas day so theres a meaning behind christmas for us!! I hope lil beans ok bcoz he/she will be 8 months old for the wedding!!! Aww.

Thanks hun i hope it was the placenta i had a tiny bit of brown liquid earlier but i guess thats jus remnants of whatever bled tge other day. My appointnent is mon at 8.30am so not too long now!!!

That lil blanket is sooo cute, id love to be good enough to make stuff like that, i think ill get back into crochet as soon as i find out if the blip is ok. :flower:
 
Morning ladies ive come for a moan.... ive had a little bit more brownish liquid this morning and i noticed like yesterday it was straight after bowel movement. Im really sorry coz thats far too much info!!! However im trying not to worry as it simply looks like very old blood and its watery.

What do u think girls??

Wow chick what a gorgeous cake!!! You really do have a fab talent here! Well done!

Baby baby baby...I know its easier said than done but fuck work. Try and put it out of your mind. Its just not worth the stress :flower: I know that its a big part of daily lifes but...well...when youre baking your little one you need to try and put the stress and worry aside and ignore it. Theres not too much time left and then youll be off before you know it with your Son in your arms and work will seem like a distant bad memory. You have a new house to look forwards too...your son is happy and healthy and soon will be here...new job will follow! And lets not forget the wedding too!

Lots of amazing things ahead!

Aww thanks Hun :)

I'm feeling better about work today so hopefully it won't be too bad, I just wish dad was gonna be there, he does all the electrical maintenance and fixes the robots when they breakdown, but they don't get back off hols til tomorrow night so I'm on my own :/

I can't wait to have my son in my arms, saw my friend earlier who lost her baby full term but I didn't say hi, as they hadn't saw me and I don't want to upset her cause I know she quite understandably doesn't want to know about other people's pregnancies etc especially with her loosing a boy and us havi one! 2wks today we'll be in our new home :) can't wait!

OMG laura the cake is amazing. :D looks really pretty. oww and thx hun. x x x

Same here, I won't be going back on birth control, I know we've not been through what you guys are and have. I want our kids to be close in age and we'll probably start trying again properly after the wedding and just pull out or condoms upto that point.

Bring on the babies ey Hun

Oooh daisies sound pretty :) I think you should start wedding planning too, it'll bring that BFP on ;)

I think it'll really kick in once I'm back to sitting in the most uncomfortable chair all day, its worse when I've been sitting directly on my bum, must be the pressure. My friend told me about a support mothercare do so I'll have a look at getting one :)

thanks natt :-) I've made 80cupcakes too lol they were chuffed with them all so im happy :)

"We aim to please" LOL

I wish I didn't have to go back at all, im thinking I'll see what its like and if its really bad or stressing me I'll get signed off until im 29wks then go on mat leave. I cried at the thought of work last night :( xxx

I think you should make a doctors appointment and speak to them about your options. Especially with this pain youre having too. They may well actually advise you to stay off because of it

I'm seeing my midwife 16th so I'll speak to her about it, if I make it at work until then, if to I'm getting signed off until 29wks!

yes natt, its never been an option to have a boy

Hun...if you pop out a boy...just so you know....I aint pushing it back in for you!!

i get a refund

:rofl: make sure you keep your receipt just incase ;) :haha: good to see you back pinky :)

Baby blankets are a lot of fun! Im working on one atm actually. Its done in the round so theres only a couple of elements of sewing. This is what im making:

That's absolutely gorgeous! So jealous of your abilities! :blush:

Morning ladies ive come for a moan.... ive had a little bit more brownish liquid this morning and i noticed like yesterday it was straight after bowel movement. Im really sorry coz thats far too much info!!! However im trying not to worry as it simply looks like very old blood and its watery.

What do u think girls??

Sorry to probe but did you have to strain? Cause if so you shouldn't cause of the pressure or something. I think it's only fresh red blood that you need to be concerned about. Roll on 8:30 tomorrow ey chick, we need to see your lil blip :)

Xxx
 
And for crochet times!! Wish I could get into either crochet or knitting :blush: xxx
 
No no straining at all lol! I guess only time will tell. Xx
 
Probably just left overs then Hun, I wouldn't worry about brown xxx
 
Sarah - I'll upload pictures if I'm successful with any of my Crochet work :haha: That blanket is so cute :D xxx
