    Such a facebook stalker me... CCL (and Chet!) and eimsRV your babies are absolutely gorgeous, cannot wait to meet them!

    Thanks Adrieanne - Addison is beautiful too! FB great for "researching" so we can identify each other next week!

    Any baby boys coming along? Seems to be alot of girls around! Was at the docs yesterday to get mmr for Alannah and there were 5 other baby girls and 1 baby boy! Gonna be a boyfriend shortage for them in yrs to come?

    I think you could be right, I know of 6 babies born in the past fortnight and everyone of them were girls :O

    We're having a girl too, could be stiff competition for her in a few years to come. That'll suit her dad nicely, less potential boyfriends to warn off :D

    Just added the above facebookers, you'll know its me by the car in my profile pic (matches my username here) :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,862 ✭✭✭✭January


    Car? There's a pic of you all dressed up! OMG such a facebook stalker, *stops now*

    haha:)

    caprilicious - i think I sent you a friend request:)i was guessing based on who the others became friends with though I maybe wrong!
    If it is you I am going to presume they are wedding photos?
    Your dress is so amazingly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,880 ✭✭✭caprilicious


    :o thanks a mill gals, yep that's my wedding dress. Its the last pic I have where I had a waist *sniff*!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,324 ✭✭✭lolly22

    Thanks! We like her anyway :D

    I've just been baby spotting too! You's all have cute babies! Ireland is gonna be populated by some gorgeous girls in the future! I like that theres not many boys cos my little lady isn't allowed talk to boys until she's 30! Although I do believe the little fella up the road has his eye on her already ;)

    Caprilicious - your dress is fab. Really suits you. Looking at the pic of your bump at Christmas you look very neat!

    All the babies are such sweethearts! Makes me want more!

    Lolly - so jealous of you living in Marbella! Really love the costa del sol!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,880 ✭✭✭caprilicious


    Aw thanks eimsRV :o I've put on a stone since that pic was taken so not feeling so neat any more!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,214 ✭✭✭cbyrd


    Ladies i'm thinking of joining you on saturday but we've had a bereavment in the family... my husbands SIL who i'm very close to had twins 2 weeks ago tomorrow.. jamie and sam, they we're born at 23+3 and jamie died at 9 mins old and Sam died today.. we're all devastated it's been a horrible 2 weeks with ups and down as he fought so hard to survive, I can't stop crying cos every time i look at Ben i know how i would feel if anything happened to him.

    so i'm not sure when the funeral is but if i can make it i'll be there, i'll have to get my husband to drive me i'm terrified to drive in the city
    Anyway here's my facebook link if anyone would like it..

    Thats awful to hear cbyrd. I'm sure it makes your lil fella all the more precious to you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 812 ✭✭✭hacked


    Cbyrd -- I am so sorry to hear about your families loss. I can't imagine what you are going through.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    I suggest you pick a toy and have it on the table, something which you are likely to have a long with you, and stick it in the centre of one of the tables.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 18,968 Mod ✭✭✭✭Moonbeam


    cybrd - that is awful
    It really makes us appreciate how lucky we are.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,214 ✭✭✭cbyrd


    thanks your comments mean a lot... we went over to see them yesterday and Sam is so tiny.. he's all dressed up in the tiniest clothes you've ever seen they wouldn't fit a doll, a tiny coffin placed in his moses basket with his teddies all around him... they've got both babies record books and pictures of them on a little table beside him and videos that they'd taken of sam during his 13 days... It would just break your heart, i'm so upset cos we'd been pregnant at the same time and we were supposed to be swapping baby clothes and tips... all she keeps saying is it's not fair, and its not.:( she's only seen Ben once and cos i'm breastfeeding i'm not going to the funeral, i don't think either she or I could handle it.:(:( I know i probably shouldn't post this here but she's the one i talk to about all this baby stuff and posting here aswell, it's stuff the men don't get, i have no idea what to do or say to her cos my baby is 4 weeks old and hers will never be, It's just breaking my heart.

    Easier said than done but be careful that you don't miss out on the enjoyment of your baby out of guilt.

    CCL and my sister in law got pregnant at the same time but she lost her baby, we spent alot of time trying not to enjoy our pregnancy for her sake which now that i look back on it didn't do anyone any use anyway


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,919 ✭✭✭ziggy23


    Hey girlies

    Hope u dont mind me gatecrashing:o I havent been on this in ages. It was a godsend to me in the last few weeks of pregnancy when I couldnt move:D I am in contact with Hacked all the time and she said it would be ok if I could tag along? My little Sean is 4 months and would like to meet all these lovely ladies:D

    Hope this is ok with everyone?

    Ziggy (Michelle!!)

    Debenhams restaurant Henry st Dublin

    Look for the bumps and buggies;)

    If you are unsure or lost feel free to pm/email/phone me as I will have internet on my phone;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    Debenhams that was Roches' stores right?
    I might be able to pop in.


  • Registered Users Posts: 812 ✭✭✭hacked


    Hey guys,I think it's actually Debenhams restraunt that we're meeting at. It's on the third floor. The cafe is quite small, and might not fit us all in!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,862 ✭✭✭✭January


    Yeah think so too!

    TargetWidow, the old Roches Stores on Henry Street :) Hope you can make it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,485 ✭✭✭✭Khannie

    edit: Facebook.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,862 ✭✭✭✭January


    Ah and here I was hoping super midwife would be there in case me/caprilicious/hacked go into labour!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,485 ✭✭✭✭Khannie


    Maybe that's why I'm avoiding it. :D

    Sorry folks I'm going to have to give tomorrow a miss. Hubbie has to go to Cork tomorrow and I wouldn't be able for the 2 hour drive to Dublin myself tomorrow.
    The half an hour drive home from work has me beat at the moment. I know, lightweight!

    I'm disappointed because I think it'd be great to put faces to names. Hope y'all have a great day tomorrow ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,196 ✭✭✭crazy cat lady

    She's usually a divil so I was surprised!! Found it funny with minilolly trying to rob all the babies soothers! Moonbeam has a toy of yours (little tigger and pooh thing). I was so dizzy walking around in circles :D Addison slept for a good while, she woke up just as we were leaving!

    Hahaha well I cant belive how well you managed with not getting dizzy and your due so soon I couldnt move at 8 months :o

    I cant belive she was doing that, maybe she felt left out since she was the only one who suck's her thumb..............or maybe it was make a show of mammy day (sure thats always the way!!!) :p

    Oh yeah Taylor's winney the pooh key's least she cant lock any door's for a while now :P


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 32,285 Mod ✭✭✭✭The_Conductor


    Cathy and myself had a great time- I think she is slightly less terrified of babies now- another 11 weeks to go, and we're about to start our antenatal classes on Monday week..... Hope to see you all again.

    She was a little dote- I was slightly terrified she was going to hit her head off the table, and she loved little Moonbeam too. We couldn't get over how peaceful little Moonbeam was- I hope our little one takes after her. Just feeding my little cookie monster at the moment, I think she has decided she wants sardines and mayonaisse next :confused: Oh well- at least its good for her.

    Haha i just wish she was as easy going then little Moonbeam, but i guess since she was a year older than most of them she get's up to alot more mischief or atleast its my excuse :p

    Once she's eating thats the main thing, and we can all see baby and her are well looked after

    Hey at least your little one doesn't try to "bum" away at the slightest opportunity!

    Sardines and mayonaise.. now there's an interesting combination!

    Bummed I couldn't make it now. Sounds like you all had a good time. Running around like a headless chicken here at the moment. 3 really is a big leap up from 2.

    Anyone got pics?

    Believe it or not... I had my camera but forgot to take pics :( my daughter was too busy walking rings around me, literally! Besides that and us getting told off by a manager in Debenhams for having our buggies in the way of people, whoops!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭Chet T16


    We had a camera too but never even thought to take pics!

    Great to meet everyone and the crazy babies :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 226 ✭✭eimsRV


    Lovely to meet ye all and your lil ones and bumps! All in all they were all very well behaved! Thought it was strange about them giving out about the buggies, thought they'd be baby friendly! Alannah is exhausted, she went to sleep earlier with no fuss!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,862 ✭✭✭✭January


    Alannah is so cute, such a good baby, along with little Moonbeam, both very well behaved and no screeching from either that I seen! Was lovely meeting you :D
