That's really sweet Bexta
And well done for words Jillie... I noticed yesterday Caitlyn said something that sounded like "there" when I asked her where her drink was... She pointed too... Maybe she's figuring out this comunication business...
She slept until 8:30 again today... I'm liking the lie-ins... Won't be so keen on Friday though when I have to get up and sort Aimee out for school lol...A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls...

like the lovely MOTM.
I've been told privately this is not the case and have known for a while. I've been tipped off some time ago a few people who have beef with me and are constantly talking behind my back (ironically the biggest drama queens), but thanks for your comment. It was also pointed out to me how some are alter egos.I feel the need to post so that everything is clear, for the regulars that are confused because of Tia's deleted post etc. For a while now many of us regular posters have been thinking that something about MOTM just doesnt quite add up basically, whether that be that he isnt real or that he is real but just a bit of a drip. For me the "hmm, really?" point was buying cars and talking about buying prams for new babies when Lucy is less than 10 weeks PG, and the abusive midwife measuring her uterus when simple scientific facts mean there isnt actually anything to measure until 20+ weeks. Theres more but S is monstering so I havent time to go into it.
Last night somebody allegedly sent him an abusive PM, but we dont know who it was and he hasnt said.
I've kept this post calm and not abusive in order that it might actually stay up, even if he does report this one too.
So, someone posted, but didn't leave it up...nice.
I was going to rant this morning, but I see it's a waste of my breath and I won't be sticking around.
I'll take being the big drip, although if you meet me, see if you feel the same way after. If looking after my girls who have been through ordeals and my partner who has been in an emotionally, physically and sexually abusive relationship means i'm a big drip, then sobeit, but if you really want to meet, you'll then have to come on here and backtrack and I know those who have been babbling on privately wouldn't even have the remotest guts to admit they were in the wrong or get on a train to confront me.
If you can find any inconsistencies in what I have said, good luck to you. I think having been around for so long I would have slipped up by now.
Cars - Wanted and needed a new car.....so?
Prams - It was suggested to me to look for them early in the pregnancy by people on THIS thread. (search)
Uterus - I never mentioned the word uterus once that I am aware of (again, search) and I have no idea. All I know is what happened on each day.
You assume I have reported a post. I didn't see a post and I can only assume someone took it down, whether it was the person who didn't have any evidence in what they were saying and it was all accusation, or MSE did for some reason.
I thank all those genuinely nice and helpful people who I have enjoyed chatting too over the past year or so. The majority of you are good people who I wish well for the future. You know who you are.
I can see why people have left and I know having PM'd them asking them to come back. Over the past few days i've mentioned this thread to a few people in glowing terms (search), but most are reluctant to join in, for various negative reasons that i've chosen to ignore. I won't be promoting this thread again.
I guess the playground mum bullies win this battle, i've met you before, I really have.
Again, thank you to the majority of you and best wishes. What a shame.0 -
Lol, i thought AE meant abusive emails! :rotfl:
Also, why does my phone have rotfl preset but didn't have ovulation and pram.. Odd.
Sami, you were the inspiration behind the love of the name Edgar.

Hi all,
I haven't posted for a while but have tried to catch up occasionally! Hope all mummies and babies are well.
I just wondered if anyone could spare a bit of advice??
I'm due back at work on 27th and we've found a childminder for Evie. We went to meet her and Evie's been back twice since for visits - an hour and then 90 mins yesterday. She was absolutely brill and she loved it so I'm not worried about her at all.
Its just that we were given the contract to read through yesterday to sign for next time and I realised we hadn't really asked the childminder any questions. The basics are covered in an info pack she gave us but I can't really think ahead to situations I might need to ask her about. It dawned on me that this lady isn't just going to be a babysitter like she has been so far, but an big role in bring Evie up!
So if any of you have been in this situation and can think of questions you asked, or ones you maybe wished you'd asked before, that would be very much appreciated

Hmmm... just come on and read this page - obviously I've missed something unpleasant again. Not quite sure what's happened, I'll read back later when I get the chance.
Just wanted to say, while I don't know the ins and outs (oo-er missus!), I find all this squabbling quite upsetting. I choose to take people (rightly or wrongly) at face value, based on what they post -and as such I feel very sad that anyone feels chased off or bullied. This should be a place where everyone feels comfortable posting as little or as much as they want. This isn't the first accusation about people sending abusive pm's and if that is happening, it needs to stop - it's bullying, plain and simple. Though I do understand that people may misread a pm, so if in doubt, surely it's better not to pm?Working hard in the hopes of being 'lucky'

hi maz..

MFD gave me a great list of things to ask....will try and find it'Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded'0 -
Morning all. I think I saw some of the posts before they were deleted, rather than being psychic it turns out
First step towards potty training - managed to find some pants in 18-24 months... only 5 pairs though. I realise that is not going to be anywhere near enough to start with. Anyone with bigger kids, how many do you recommend? I'm thinking we will get through more than 5 in a day!Isabella Molly born 14th January 2009

Just have to say this. I LOVE Lilys eyebrows lol.
They are such a great shape and i cant imagine her not having them haha.
When weirdos are talking to her she always raises her eyebrows and stares at them :rotfl:0 -

We're not at that stage, obviously, but my mother likes to tell the story of when she slapped me for the first time - I was about 20 months old and she was attempting to potty train me. I was not so inclined and managed to pee in nine pairs of pants inside an hour :eek: I think the wisdom is "as many pairs as you can"Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76
