    This is making me wonder how many of us met our OH's online. I got mine from person.com he seemed so young and naive which worried me a little at first but he was such a gentleman couldn't resist him and he has stepped up to the mark better than my older kids own dad ever did. :-)

    I got mine off facebook too. Had just left my ex for someone who changed their mind about wanting a relationship after 3 weeks and was staying with my brother. Decided to act like a tart for a few months for a bit of fun, met up with OH who was the first on my "list" :o and decided I quite liked him. Can't bloody get rid of him now :D:rotfl:
    (not that I would want to, he's turned out to be the best thing to happen to me) awwwww ;)

    I met DH online. But we realised afterwards that we used to go to the same pub quiz every week (I can actually remember him and his friend winning one week!) I'm too shy to ever chat a bloke up and he'd never have approached me as I was always with a group of blokes from work, so we'd never have met if it wasn't for t'internet :)

    Mine doesn't, she just says "oh dear I've made a mess of this one you're going to hate me .. let's try the other arm".
    When I went for my anti D last week she had a student with her and I could hear her waffling "oh don't we have any smaller needles that's like one you'd do a horse with" I actually turned round and "said errr what?????? :eek::eek:" she was really embarrassed. OH just sat there saying nothing!

    I left my ex and tarted around for a bit had to be done though i met him when i was 16 and i was with him until i turned 30 so never really did the clubbing and dating thing glad i got it out of my system though. I went a bit off the rails if i am honest new OH had to tame me a bit :p

    I was a bit like you lolly... Was with my ex from 17-23... Kicked him out, went off the rails a bit... But got pregnant with Aimee kind of slowed me down... (the guy who got me pregnant was actually someone I'd known and had a major crush on since I was 13... He just turned out to be a first class KH...)

    Anyway, my hubby I first met through MSN chat but he was seeing someone and I was using his best mate as a 'buddy'... Fast forward 6 years, we've all moved on, gone our seperate ways and DH and I were chatting on MSN one night and arranged a catch up... 3 months after that we'd booked the church :D
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    internet seems to be the way to go i know loads of people who met their OH's online. i met mine on holiday 2 yrs ago the romance just never fizzled out :D

    started my baby shopping today i got:

    19 short sleeve body suits (all from primark)
    15 long sleeve sleep suits (some from primark and 6 from next)
    moses basket £30 from argos and it is very simialr to one from mothercare which was £40
    changing mat £7.50 from mothercare
    2 hooded towels with wash mits (£3 each primark)

    do u think thats enough clothes for the first few weeks? im going to get a few cardigans and a snowsuit aswell. do babies wear a body suit then a sleepsuit over it? would it be ok for them to just wear the sleepsuits during the day? then i could just put an outfit on if im going anywhere i suppose.

    couldnt believe the price of Next stuff :eek: although it is gorgeous.

    I'd get a few pairs of socks and a couple of hats too..

    mine all had a body suit then a sleepsuits then a cardigan.. if we went somewhere they wore exactly the same.. tiny babies are often most uncomfy in silly outfits.. we go for comfort.. you could always get a couple of patterned sleepsuits for going out.. I just had tidy cardies and in the house cardies!

    I think Tiddles was about 4 months old before she wore an outfit.. other than the dress she wore over a sleepsuit for my grans funeral at 3 weeks old.. this one will probably wear its first outfit for siL's wedding mid September..
