[charlieispy]

FX for you Z x x

Kell I am not far from you - Milton keynes x I am a SAHM but work part time in starbucks for my sins!! (no love it really just hard sorting childcare etc) YAY for the access course one of my friends just left BUX after doing the access course she is in her first year of midwifery and LOVING it

[rainbowflower]

Good luck with your scan today zanacal! Sending lots of luck your way!

Do you mind me asking where you guys are from and what you do? I'm in Hertfordshire! I'm a SAHM at the moment but I'm also studying an access course so I can go to Uni and do
Midwifery! Altho while at college yesterday the thought of becoming a Doula became very attractive to me!

Best get on with the school run! Have a great day!
Oh sorry but what does SMOG stand for?

I'm in Hampshire

SMOG apparently = "smug mothers of girls"

that course sounds interesting! I'm considering becoming a midwife in the future too, although there is very high competition for uni places here so not sure I'd even get onto the uni course...

Sorry your feeling down Babymed! (((HUGS)))

Charlie- I'm Enjoying college, but am looking at getting myself a part-time job as well, Time will tell what tho! Oh your really not far away! I Love shopping up there! Its dangerous money wise for me tho, so i try to stay away lol!

Rainbowflower- Hertfordshire is really competetive for midwifery as well, But if you want to go for you definatly should! I will say tho, that if you can get yourself some work experience/ voulenteering on the wards it will be very good for your application when you come to do it! Herts uni wont even consider people without some sort of experience. This is where the Doula thing comes in for me, Its difficult to get on the work experience schedule at my local hospital so i'm going to try and shadow a doula as i would say thats as good!

We've just got back from a soft play centre, My littleman in pooped so i can get on and clean while he's sleeping, Chances are i'll end up on here the whole time reading tho lol!

Oh had an idea, how about a smog secret santa this year? I could organise and we could do 'homemade' gifts since we all seem to be so arty and creative? or not, and just have an amount to spend? what do you all think? I did one with IG a couple of years ago and it was so lovely!

that sounds like a brilliant idea!

Great, if you are up for the Secret Santa can you message me and I can start to make up a list. No pressure at all to join in but everyone welcome as the more the merrier. Will keep list open until end of November and then sort out the names and mail them out to everyone! I think by Dec 1st, that will give everyone enough time I think?

Hope you are all having a good day

Z- thinking of you.

Zanacal - hope the scan went well today. got my FX for you xx

the people for the contents insurance have ben today and have took all my furniture from in my living room! They have written everything off. Everything we have is at the most a year old as we only moved into this house last October and bought everything new! Especially in my front room as we dont really use that room. Only when we have visitors round. So as you can imagine everything in that room is pratically still new! There was nothing at all wrong with my white leather 3 peice sofa (just a few water splashes on the leather) that would have wiped off and theve took it such a waste. My living room hasnt got anything in at all. There coming back tomorrow to lift all the laminate up in the front room and take all my furniture out of my dining room.

Woo hoo, everything is ok! She found the heartbeat straight away and I'm measuring 11 weeks exactly. She could see a tiny bleed but said it was so insignificant that she wouldn't even mention it in her report. I didn't get a photo - I was going to ask but she'd whipped everything away before I could ask. To be honest, it all looked rather blurry anyway! So happy

Rainbow - I'm thinking of going to Babybond in Southampton for a gender scan at 16 weeks (still not decided though!).
