Awww, thank you Teenie, it can be so difficult sometimes trying to strike up conversation in here - maybe it's just me and pregnancy paranoia - but I kind of feel like cos I didn't come here from the less than 12 weeks thread that I'm a bit not really 'in the loop' - looking at it written down makes it sound idiotic and I know that no-one's ignoring me on purpose, just sometimes when people post after you but no-one replies to you, I feel a bit silly... And sometimes it feels like everyone has their friendships and I don't like to shove in and demand people talk to me... Urgh, now I feel like a fool, but I'm not gonna delete it, will let you all put me on block instead


Well, the Christmas fayre/fair started at 3, we got there at five to and the place was packed! They let us in at 3, we went straight to Moo's class to pick her up, there were stalls in the corridors as well as the hall so it was a nightmare trying to get anywhere - especially for an already overweight pregnant lady! We had a quick look round but there was nothing good - I'm really disappointed, was looking forward to the kind of stalls that are mentioned over on the crafting threads Still, it saved me some money so very MSE


Ooooooh I'm sick of having to go pee every five minutes!!


How's everyone else? I will read back eventually, but I can't remember what happened 20 minutes ago, never mind remember stuff to reply to!! Anyone fancy a brew? xxx


ETA, aww Charlie, I'm so pleased everything's ok! Bloody inconsiderate buffoons nonetheless but phew! xx

Aw don't be silly, I think the majority of us have gotten a wee bit paranoid or upset if out posts appear to have been ignored.

That's a shame about the fair, it's one of these things that you look forward to. I don't have anything like that to go to but do have my DD's concert. I am so excited and can't wait, it's on the 22nd Dec which means I will miss the Xmas lunch at work but hey who cares!

:mad: You should put in a complaint to the antenatal department stating why it was unacceptable (i.e. caused you undue distress due to not having explained things properly) and what they should do in future (i.e. 1.explain that they have lost the figures not that there is something wrong and 2.that they should have let you know when they found them - not just waited until you turned up). If they don't get feedback they don't realise how much distress they've caused. But I'm a bit beligerant me.

I'm in the process of writing an e-mail. And if I don't get a reply by the 20th when I have to go up there for my scan i'm gonna let them have it face to face!

After my scan of course!

You're not a fool. (I hope you know what I mean because on rereading it sounds like I'm saying people are ignoring you which is not what I am saying!) I think sometimes (and this is just in general - not specifically about you as I've not seen enough of your posts) you can write a post in such a way that it doesn't seem to need a reply. Or it does but nobody feels like they have a useful reply. Or in my case sometimes I feel like I write too much so I'll often just thank a post rather than writing a "hope it goes well" or a "glad it went well" or a sympathy post.

Ooh cutterby. Sorry I didn't acknowledge your post. I just came in and did my
Mammoth post about work without reading back. Don't feel out of the loop. I never remember who said
What anyway so whether it's you or someone else if I
Remember I'll acknowledge you. Chances are tho I wont remember.

Your sick of peeing?? Try not having a toilet for 24 hours. Mop bucket it is!!!! The shame

Aww dusty, it's fine, nothing to apologise for, it was nothing specific to any one person and I know sometimes people are too busy/stressed/forgetful(me!!) to reply individually, plus sometimes it's not something you can comment on, it's just me being daft. I wanted to mention it though, cos it's been on my mind and I'm too honest for my own good sometimes - or just don't know when to keep quiet! :rotfl:

My Nan used to have a bucket under the sink for the extreme times when she couldn't make it upstairs - I may well follow in her footsteps Hope you get your toilet back soon! xx

Thanks Teenie, I was quite worried about what people would think/say about my last post.. It sounded whiney to my own ears (eyes?) so I wouldn't be offended if anyone gave me a kick up the backside and told me to stop being so stupid!

Aww, hope your DD's concert is fantastic! I think the concert wins out over a work Christmas dinner We don't even get a Christmas play this year, apparently Moo's class is putting a play on in May next year - should be fun with a less than month old baby(!) xx

I'd be interested to hear what you think of it afterwards - I'm torn between hiring one like that or buying an inflatable one which would be cheaper but take up more space.

Absolutely, I'll try and remember - but give me a poke and remind me!

Cutterby, just dive in Same goes for all the other lurkers out there - we want to hear from you, even if it's just now and then. I go through phases of posting and lurking. Sometimes you have things to say, and sometimes you don't, but do post when you do

Thanks Susan!! I agree, sometimes you've nothing to add to a post, or no experience of what the other person's asking about, so it's easier to say nothing. There's lots of drawbacks to using internet forums - it's so easy to take something the wrong way... Being pregnant doesn't help either

Anyway, I said my bit, feel better for it, will definitely post more, and thank you all for not yelling at me - I don't know how my husband puts up with me sometimes!

This will be her first (she is 3) so I can imagine blubbing my eyes out (I will blame the pregnancy LOL !) That's a shame and a bit odd about your wee ones play!
