How about a jaunty wave or a cheeky thumbs up from across the room?

Accidental lifestyle upgrade! That sounds amazing!

When people said to me “If you stop trying it will just happen!” that was the worst. The. Worst. Like I felt like I had to justify how much work it was to me, to us, and how hard it was, but without the tests, the timing, the calculating, the calendars, the medical intervention, the waiting, the horrible feigned…

Yeah it’s been a real downer lately hasn’t it?

This is great! Reminds me of those old Donald Duck cartoons where he used to do exercises like this while instructed by a record. It always ended up insulting him iirc, glad yours ended well!

This is SO GOOD! I’ve been driving myself crazy on Pinterest with sites about capsule wardrobes and the French wardrobe and the 30 item wardrobe etc. I could never muster up enough enthusiasm to buy a nicely fitting blazer, crisp business shirts, smart black trousers etc and you have just helped me see that’s because…

Damn. I’m white, I’m a SAHM so I’m technically unemployed, and my sister just had a baby so I guess I’m an aunt... and yup I watch this show. You nailed it.

When you start identifying with the grown ups you know you’re old.

Gosh she looks so young! I remember her as being so old!

It’s hard work, I get it. In a way us women are lucky because we get the oxytocin happy hormone that helps us forget the bad bits, the guys miss out on that! Just remember that whatever your journey to get there is, the best outcome is a happy healthy mama and a happy healthy baby. I beat myself up for a long time…

Well that sounds amazing. How saucy were the added bits?

After I came out of the cinema from watching Wonder Woman I felt like I could take on the world, and I wondered if that’s what men feel like after watching every action film ever. It’s a powerful feeling.

I saw Margaret Atwood speak when she came to my city for a literature festival, she was interviewed by a female literature professor from the nearby university. She was amazing. When the talk was opened up to questions the usher chose a white haired man for the first question and he spent a full five minutes talking…

I’m glad I made you laugh! Gosh on my second round, the number of well-meaning people who sent me stupid tips for helping with morning sickness was incredibly frustrating. Ditto to people expecting me to show up to anything. I’m also really glad that Kate is up front about HG, she had George a year after my first was…

Oh wow. Have you tried having some crackers before you get up in the morning? Maybe something with ginger in it?

Aww. I had two rounds of HG, one for each of my pregnancies, and for sure I would have gone another round. I freaking love babies, and when it’s your own baby you can literally kiss and snuggle them as much as you like and never have to give them back to someone else! Forever!! But my husband was so scarred by 2x 9…

“Aim”. Nice. I really like your work!

That is a good story, that got less gross and more interesting the longer I read it! Nicely done.

I would very much like to be included in this party. Any of the thieves reading this, hit me up, I can grab some nice biscuits for the cheese and be on the Eurostar in a flash.

Whinging about Brexit I can do for sure. But do you really think we’d allow an American to make the tea? Oh deary me no.
