It was the old dears at work with me - one of them said to me every time i see you go in the loos i wonder if i should get some towels and hot water.
Yes i knew i was huge and looked about to pop, but they drove me bonkers.0 -
Hello
Still cooking baby here.And hoping you're not too fed up with comments like "Haven't you popped yet?" which nearly drove me to murder!!
We've warned all the families and friends that its going to be appointments only when the baby's here! Also, I plan to have a bottle of ketchup by the front door - just in case
I refused to take the tablets Cath cause of the side effects and am on the iron liquid instead.Much easier to take as well.
Am pleased to say that I managed to clean the windows the other day and have painted the woodwork and radiator in the baby's roomCurrently studying for a Diploma - wish me luck

Oooh exciting. Here's hoping for a nice easy labour for you. It's always a good start if it begins in the morning. My DS's labour began at 11pm when I was just about to go to bed, so I was already tired before I began. My DD began at 9am and was much easier, so I'm glad you've started at a sensible time of day.Starting again 13/4/19Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99Total owed: £28,801.49
