I'm having a DFW baby!!

Snaggles

I wonder if you ever get used to it - I sometimes look at DS and think 'Oh my god, I'm a Mum'.....and he's 6!

Perhaps an Immoral Angel style eviction notice might do the trick? I thought the one on her diary was hilarious, and very well worded too!

Snaggles

I might 'borrow' that off her actually....I remember it WAS very funny. Although I think she at least had the patience to wait for her due date before starting eviction proceedings!

Snaggles,
I have 4 under 4 because I'm a chilminder-it's a matter of need rather than want...
And they were little bleeders today...

No, I dont think you do.

My eldest is about to start 'big' school in September, and is a teenager in all but years:rolleyes:

I still dont feel old enough, or grown up enough to be responsible for stuff like this

I know what you mean Spud-
I am 37 years old but don't feel mature enough to be 27 or even 17!!

Scary...

Bunny, I'd forgotten you were a childminder, sorry! Still think you're brave looking after 4 of the little monkeys though.

I know what you both mean about the maturity thing though, I don't feel mature enough to be thir.....thirt......twenty seven either

The funny thing is, when your kids are little they think you know everything....but really you don't have a clue and are just muddling your way through.

I had the nicest thing just happen-
One of my childmidees is a VERY willful young lady of 1-gorgeous, sweet but has an incredible temper! She was a challenge today...
Anyway, her Mom just sent me a picture of her in the bath and she'd written in foam letters 'Luv you Bunny' (insert my real name here, lol) on the wall!
Ah bless. Made up for the fact that I was ready to lock her in the cupboard today. (JOKE!)

And yes, I am brave! I owe it all to prozac...

I'm the same age as you Bunny.

I work in a school, and at times look after around 30 little darlings :eek:

Good morning :wave:

I've just got in from the midwife and the baby's head is partially engaged - apparently this happens much later with a second baby, often just before the start of labour.......and the period pains I've been getting are my cervix ripening (hope you're not eating breakfast lol)........so she could come any time! :eek: :T

I'm trying not to get my hopes up, because she says that as DS was overdue, I'm quite likely to go overdue again, but things are looking promising at least.

My blood pressure is normal and the sample was fine (and so was the sample they sent off to the lab last week), so basically I'm ready to go!

Fingers crossed for me
