    I keep watching livingtv2 and all the birth baby programmes. I always like watching these programes. I find them fascinating.

    Whilst I dont feel the longing to have child No3 but is this my subconscience / bioligical clock telling me it is time for round 3?

    The midwife will give you a copy of the pregnancy book - which is a dept of health publication. Its the antenatal equivalent of birth to 5 which you will recvieve from the HV once you have delivered.

    Both very comprehensive and tell you everythign that you need to know. I didn't buy anything else (but since i'm a trained midwife had inside info anyway), but seriously,these books are absolutely great!

    I flew long haul at 26 weeks and didn't need anything other than regular travel insurance - our annual plan was with Direct Line at the time. It is always advisable to make sure you are properly covered and worth a phone call to check the fine print.
