Good Morning/Afternoon everyone!!!

It’s 6:40am here and I am enjoying TDK and a cup of tea. I have the buffet set up and the coffee on! Agency kitties are ready to be snuggled.

We are taking Maddie over Grandma’s today so it will be a busy morning, so I must say my hellos now while it’s quiet and then I get to go to my ultrasound and we can see how Miss Abigail is growing 🙂

How is everyone today?

Hi Pika!!! I am 32 weeks already…only about 7 or 8 more weeks to go. I am due in January but the Dr. will be doing a C-Section so I am waiting to be scheduled when that will be.

earl grey tea…YUM!! I love the English Breakfast and Chai tea as well.

Ahh, not long to go then! hope you sail through. My friend had a c-sec last week, and is fine and dandy already the lucky thing, and he (Harvey) was her first! I am a fan of Chai tea too, we have a great shop in England called Whittards who do the most amazing teas and coffees, and lovely china, i pop in nealry everyday in my lunch just to smell the aroma!!

Thanks Pika, this will be my second c-section. I had to have one with Madeline, so we decided this one should be one too for safety reasons. I do worry but I have to trust the physicians.

I love England Pika, you have the best shops and just everything. My hubby and I would move there in a heartbeat if we could. We love it there.

Sounds like the docs know what they are doing. my partner and I are trying at the mo, but its hard as i have endometriosis and lost an ovary last year because of it. Not totally hopeless but very slim chances of naturally conceiving so we are waiting on IVF. So you have been to England? where did you stay? I have never been to America but would love to! I am in the south west, in Plymouth where the Pilgrim Fathers sailed from! its a really lovely city, close to beaches, and lovely countryside.

Good morning, CM and Pika!

I stayed over with Old Boss’ daughter *ducks from anything CM may throw* and got up at 5:45 to get over to the puppies on time to take them out. I’m running home to Bobby and Mi in a minute to give Bobby his pill and have to be back at the puppies’ house by 9:00 because the dad’s secretary is coming over to work in the office for a bit.

I’m feeling a bit better today, but still not great. At least I don’t have to go to work until 5.

Good luck with the ultra sound, CM!

GD!!!! You know I am shaking my head and finger at you!!!

Glad you are feeling a bit better, everyday you will get a little better then a little better, but rest if you can today GD. I do worry you know!!

Pika, I have only been to London, and we loved it there. We want to now go to the outskirts and see other towns. However, I got pregnant and whoops…can’t travel for a while…Not to mention the cost 🙂

I hope you are able to conceive Pika, we didn’t think we could either. He had a small medical problem then after 8 years together and I was 37, I found out I was pregnant with Maddie and now I am 39(to be 40 next week) and am having my second one. It’s worth it 🙂

hi GD!

So glad i mentioned it, now you made me feel better you know, i am 36 and the doctors keep going on and on about me “leaving it too late” etc and going to be so hard etc. I think all that is added pressure and its making it worse! we are trying to relax and let it “happen” naturally. its nice to hear of others who thought it wouldn’t happen.thanks.xx 40 next week, wow congrats for that! are you doing anything special?

I’ve been to London, too, but it was about 15 years ago.

CM, I’m going to really try to rest up some today – I’m feeling worn out.

I’m going to run now so I can have some time to spend with my boys before I have to leave again. I’ll check in later.

GD, everytime I read your schedule, it wears me out! Just reading about it, can’t imagine living it!

((GD))

We had a lot of stress in our lives Pika before we conceived and then it was like it was meant to be. Once our lives calmed down, we got pregnant. I was so shocked. I think I sat there for 2 hours in shock! Now Maddie is 2 and Abbie will be born in January. It’s a bit more tiring I think being an older mom, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world!! I will keep you in my prayers.

well I wanted a party for my 40th but honestly money is tight, so that’s out…so really no plans yet. I told hubby that I would like at least to go out to dinner with some family members, so we might do that. Nothing set in stone though.
