MSE Parents Club Part 13

I tried to sue. But paperwork had been 'misplaced'. And apparently having a witness to say you were reviewed by a doctor and told you were fine, didn't count unless it was on a bit of paper.

Anyway...

I can't be arsed doing the dishes.

Me neither Tia, I also CBA going to the post office. My ebay buyer took 24 hours to pay and then sent an email "I won and paid and I want my item sent in a cardboard box with bubble wrap."

I'm not in any hurry...

Mel, that sounds great drizzly weekdays are a win! Did K cope peaceably with I guess being in stroller most of the day? Did you go on some rides yourself?

We got him regularly, to a little run about. Well we had to stop twice for food and twice for feeding T so plenty of chance for him to stretch his legs, but yes he was a star:)

Me and dh took it in turns to take all three boys on various rides, try as I might I just couldn't persuade them to come on oblivion:p

Looks like you had a great time Mel When did you tell the boys you were going? You kept it a surprise didn't you?

We didn't tell them at all:rotfl: We said we were going for a picnic at Stoke, they worked it out when they realsed we were following the brown signs saying Alton Towers:rotfl:They were bouncing yup and down:D

Mel It looks like you had a great day. I love the pram - are you happy with it?
We should go - i've not been to Alton Towers for years. (It was actually the day after Freddie Mercury died, whenever that was - random memory!)

I LOVE the pushchair yes, I am planning on getting a single too:)

It may be worth it. MSE's not my concern. Affluent enough to afford the odd luxury and if it adds to the experience, then i'm all for it.

It's probably all changed in the last 10 years, hence my confusion and Lucy's first time she's all confused.

in that case do it, but you'll probably not get an appointment before tuesday now :rotfl: but why not have both? (don't tell martin I said that - he might bar me :P )

I had an NHS scan while bleeding in the UK, but most of mine were done here. The NHS equipment looked like it came out of a museum in comparison :rotfl:



If you have a scan booked for Tuesday I'd save the £80 till Lucy's 26-28 weeksish and get a $d scan. My doctor did those as a matter of course until it was all too cramped in there to see anything beyond her little butt poking out, and it was incredible.

A good point. We chose not to do that, only because they couldn't promise that we wouldn't find out the gender of baby and we really didn't want to know in advance - something else to consider....

nice - I must remember that! :rotfl:

LO is 'helping' me have a good clean. She's currently using one of her bibs as a floor duster.................

I went out and bought her a few new things. Pretty dresses aren't very practical for everyday wear now - not cold enough for tights, but too cold for pretty summer dresses and none are practical for the playpark and cleaning. She looks so grown up

Oh dear, I've suddenly realised why people have more than one..........oh no. Was that the teeniest, tiniest pang of broodiness - Shhhhhhh, don't tell anyone;)

*wanders off making a mental note to be VERY vigilant about contraception while on romantic holiday next month*

Alice wears shorts under her dresses which go just over the knee. This means that a) her bottom doesn't stick on the slides and b) when she falls over twenty million times she doesn't end up with cut knees. Although today she's wearing black leggings which almost go over her heels with her pretty pink dress because she got her own clothes out this morning while I was still in bed.

susan - thats a great idea! Shes got a couple of pairs of leggings that were a present but I've never known what to wear them with. I'm not known as a fashion guru But they'll look lovely and be practical under her dresses. Thanks so much.

Before you know it, Annabel will be requesting a baby sibling. Alice's games now include a Mummy, a Daddy, a child and a baby and she's always talking about baby brothers and baby sisters.
