I have the restless legs thing as well, soo annoying.
(((HUGS))) Tara for you and DD, hope it all gets resolved for her quickly.
Totally agree with you Mrs T. Its all about compromises, and once thats realised life just seems to get so much easier.0 -
I've never heard of this plus one...Sami, I recall you had problems with Chris growing out of his quite quickly so I'm guessing you might have had the smaller one
it certainly wasn't around when I got mine which was the plain ol ventura
Good Lord don't any MWs do their job???thanks Jillie
Got some stuff to do in town with OH after scan so might not get on her until after 5. I also assumed all my booking in bloods were normal as I didn't hear otherwise
Your results should have been written in ur notes and verbally explained to you at the appointment after having them taken!:mad:
My angel MW called me at home to give me mine as she couldn't check them before she visited me at home (LOVE her!!!)
_pale_ what did he put up there?????DS1 just learned a valuable life lesson.... don't stick things in your peepee.
I didn't even know that you could stick things in it

I'm thinking whitewash - shouldn't clash with anything thenwhat colour flooring do we think would go nice in a 'yellow' or white nursery?
White cotbed, white and pine coloured wardrobe and changing unit....0 -

as harsh as it sounds i defo think this. dont think is necessarily wasting time but maybe is better than having loads of meetings, hopes raised etc, we have seen a lot of ladies here in the past few weeks having mc early on but having been so excited and hopeful. then for it to go wrong. i'd rather know its ok
i had my scan first on the day and then bout 30 mins with midwife going through loads of things. but i remember thinking how awful it would have been to go through all your/partners medical history, what tests you may want, all the leaflets and then be told. sorry theres nothing there.'Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded'0 -
Right I'm off to bed, need to get up early tomorrow for work before my MW appt in the afternoon.
For everyone with scans tomorrow good luck
Nighty nightThe two best things I have done with my life

STOPTOBER CHALLANGE ... here we go !!0 -
when i had my last bloods done at my 16 week apt the midwife said they would go through them with me at the hospital.
just thought for example that if my blood was rhesus neg or i wasnt immune to rubella i would have heard. maybe the next appointment i have at the hospital will shed more light
you can tell me and glam are 1st time mums'Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded'0 -
Tara I hope DD gets sorted soon, you know my mum did the same thing when I went in to have a large skin tag removed and they only told us afterwards that I could have sat with her in the waiting room :rolleyes: I was sat there pooping myself on my own and she was just down the corridor worrying all by herself when we could have been fretting together!
We had Christopher Christened in a methodist church although I am CofE - reason being I believe we are all worshiping the same God just in different ways and 'my' vicar had to retire while I was pregnant so we chose OH's church where his Dad did the ceremony which for us made it all the more special
If I wasn't remotely religious I don't think we would have got him Christened as it was more important to me than OH.
We got married in a civil registry office ceremony party because we got married at short notice and partly to avoid any religious issues.0 -
Night MM. I was going to say I am about to join you, but not literally!!
Before I go, when I was in Babies R Us today, they had the Quinny Buzz 3 in store for £375 including the carrycot and the Maxi Cosi car seat. Apparently it was only on sale in black, but I thought this sounded like a great price! On their website it is around £100 dearer (although that's it already in the sale) so might be only instore, but just thought I would mention it in case anyone is interested in the Quinny.
Night all.

Why all the rotfls when so many ladies on here have had just this experience in the last few days
You may well be right that this is the reason, but having had just that experience myself many many years ago, I found nothing to even smile about when it happened to me, much less laugh hysterically 5 times over.0 -
its not your fault that they aren't explaining thing properly:)jillie1974 wrote: »when i had my last bloods done at my 16 week apt the midwife said they would go through them with me at the hospital.

anything that requires action you are generally told about straight away tho, so more than likely ur fine.
The blood tests after scan thing is due to cost cutting, if you consider that something like 1 in 4 pregnancies don't result in a baby they save a fair bit over a year by not having a MW spend 1hr with you and running about 10 blood tests. Not nice but the way it is...0 -
Thanks ladies, have passed on your best wishes to DD, she is here tonight. X:A
Hypno, that mum of triplets is a disgrace, even when I was broke I used to mash up veggies for DD's dinner as it was the cheapest way to feed her. :mad:
Greent, I don't know what to say, thinking of you, find it hard to believe that anyone would do that to you, please take care of yourself.
Sparkle, your little girl is beautiful! :T
Iheart, so very sorry. XXX
Fitzio, thank-you very, very much. You were so lovely to do that for us, OH was really chuffed you took the trouble.
:D:D Glad your sis, or was it sis-in-law, is ok! X
Tickle, shame bubs wouldn't turn but glad your ok.
Mrs M, great that your bubs is hanging on in there. XToo many children, too little time!!!
