WILLOW _ Is this school mummy super-hot & super-good looking to be able to pass judgements like that in the first place? I would def be seeing red flags as well, maybe next time she passes a remark about the mother 'letting herself go', you could say something like 'don't we all?' because quite honestly, don't we all? LOL. As with the thing about the mummy getting pregnant & her saying she is too ugly to be having sex, that is just downright rude & I have no comeback for that one. Does V really like the child? Is the child nice? It's a really tough one, like you said, it's just a school friend, she doesn't need to be your next best friend, but if the kids are playing happily & she doesn't give you the red flag ALL the time, I'd probably just roll with it for a while longer. Does this make any sense?
Willow I'd maybe distance myself just a little bit and see what happens. Like Jayne said are your kids really good friends? If so just let it slide a bit or think of a clever but not nasty comment back kwim? I really don't think people should pass judgement on others but I know that's easier said than done and tbh I think those types of comments are very harsh and rather nasty. Anyway that probably hasn't helped at all
Kelly Thinking of you hun and am hoping like crazy that little bub of yours is doing all the right things tomorrow at your scan
Jayne I'm sure you're all going to have a wonderful time away. Can't wait to hear all about it when you get home.
kelly, thinking of you tomorrow. I hope everything looks great.
Willow, Those are some very nasty comments. I guess with any friendship there are going to be some things you don't really like about the other person. If she has been kind to you and your family I don't think it is something to avoid her over. Just let her know in your own way that you don't care to talk about people like that. I think if you let her know in a respectful way that you will remain friends.
AFM, It was really low BP making me dizzy. It was 100/64 yesterday after wrestling with Grayson in the waiting room for a half hour. I am starting some progesterone gel to help keep my cyst under control. If it gets too big I will be in lots of pain again and I would like to avoid that. I decided that I was going to make a ticker! I thought that it would help me stay more positive. 3 weeks until my next ultrasound.

Laney - Good on you for doing a ticker!!! You're only a few days ahead of me... although that will probably change today as my dates are always A LOT different when I go for a scan... which just stresses me out even more! I wish I had the courage to do a ticker... maybe in another 10 days time I'll do one! Thanks for thinking of me.
Mako - Thanks for everthing too.. under the circumstances you've been amazing to me and I know it's still hard for you, so thank you so much. You're incredible and I wish I could take some of the pain away. Hugs.
Willow - Hmmm, that's a tough one. I agree with the others and have no time for horrible, nasty comments like that but at the same time, if the kids are playing well together maybe its something you can just ignore. I agree with Jayne though, I'd just make a basic comment next time she says something nasty.. nothing horrible, just a little "oh.. I don't think so" and then change the subject quickly... or even just change the subject when she says things like that.. hopefully then she'll get the idea that you don't want to be a part of the nasty comments she's making. Like you said, you don't have to be best friends but it's nice to have someone to talk to when you're dropping the kids off at school and maybe it's not worth destroying that yet.
Well... first of the scan days today and I'm quitely crapping myself. Although this is the scan that's usually fine... always measures behind dates (which will stress me even more this time as I used opk's so kind of know when I O'd). Anyway, it's usually all fine at this scan, bub is there, strong heart beat and all that, so hopefully I have nothing to worry about just yet. It's the next scan in 10 days time that is the really scary one. My problem is, 10 days time is a Saturday, so I'm going to try and make the scan for the Friday, 9 days time, surely one day isn't going to matter too much. then I see my ob in another 10 days after that. Wow... how am I going to get through all this. Good thing is that boobs have grown (which I just love as I don't have much), I'm feeling a bit yuck from time to time and I'm really tired. Although I had some of those symptoms last time so who knows. Hopefully the asprin is working.
Also have the MIL here, which is great... Luke's LOVES it and she'll make me rest up!! Will try and post this avo after my scan... it's at midday!
Laney Love your ticker hun. I hope your cyst stays under control and pain free too.
Kelly How did everything go hun? I've been thinking of you all morning
Willow I'm not sure when or if I'll be seeing Dr S again I asked him that same question last week and he said he wasn't sure when he wanted to see me so I just don't know. I know this guy has been great for a few of you but tbh I'm just not sure and DH has again gone off the idea of me seeing him and I think I'm just going to wait and see my Ob up here. I'm still all over the place and I just don't know. I know that doesn't make a lot of sense but I guess I'll just see how I'm feeling in a few weeks
We are supposed to be going away tomorrow for Easter just the 3 of us so it should be ok. Although I'm not too keen to be going in this rainy weather. We are going to the same place we go to at Christmas time but we are going to be staying in th IL's onsite van so atleast we have all the comforts of home +more lol ie shower/toilet kitchen and the +more bit a dishwasher lol.
Just got home and all went really well, actually it went better than I expected. Bub measuered 6 wks 2 days (one day ahead what I thought, which is incredible as I usually measure behind my dates).. so my new due date is 22 November!! I'm praying this is a really good sign of things to come and am starting to feel like this one might actually stick. So will try and be a bit more positive... I think. Oh god, it's hard. There was a nice strong heart beat.. 118bpm, which is good (but I had that last time so still can't relax yet). The sonographer was brilliant too, although I had to have an internal scan... she explained everything and even knew I had a c/s and that I O'd out of the left ovary!!! Couldn't get in for my next scan until 2 weeks time, so it's going to be a horrible two weeks... but by then I'll know for sure!! So just need to get through the next two weeks. It's so hard.
I'm exhausted... need to rest up and process all this. Thankfully DS is at daycare today!! Hope everyone is well and thinking of you too Mako!!
Kelly That is wonderful news hun. I hope the next 2 weeks go by really fast for you
Well we've had a change of plan and we have now decided to stay home for Easter which deep down I'm so happy about. I haven't even done any shopping for the Easter Bunny or even started to pack or wash our clothes to take away Anyway I can now relax a little and we can enjoy a weekend at home doing nothing if that's what we decide we want to do
I asked him that same question last week and he said he wasn't sure when he wanted to see me so I just don't know. I know this guy has been great for a few of you but tbh I'm just not sure and DH has again gone off the idea of me seeing him and I think I'm just going to wait and see my Ob up here.
