    Feely - i thought i was starting to panic about the hosptial part when i asked the question about the bags, but i know now it's not fear of the labour (i know it is going to be painful and i can't change that), but it's more the fear of not being prepared. hubby isn't the best organiser so things are left to me and i want to have everything right and ready.

    I think its just getting a bit real now. We 'tried' for a few years, and never got pregnant, so I sort of accepted that I couldn't have kids. I thought I'd come to terms with it (as much as you can do) and then this happened! I think part of me is still doubting it, or expecting it to go wrong.

    Anyone :confused::o

    for price/quality/selection, I found NEXT to be the best. But online only - they don't hold much stock in their stores.

    Topshop were a funny fit and too trendy for me.

    Some of the girls have recommended peacocks, but I've no experience of there.

    If you are splashing out, I totally recommend Isabella Oliver. I was treated to a couple of pieces from there and they really are gorgeous :D

    Sami - thanks for pointing out that babycentre name section - I like that!

    Isn't it amazing how you can have a whole bunch of names picked out - then you and OH weed through them like "oh, knew someone with that name - didn't like 'em" and "ex boyfriend/girlfriend" and "someone close in the family already has that name" and it just whittles it right down to nothing??

    That's a really positive dream - I'm sure it'll be like that in real life;)

    you reminded me of hubby's dream a few nights ago. While I was panicing about my waters breaking in teh middle of the night he was dreaming that he was pg and had a contraction, didn't like it and so gave baby back to me :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I think it might have been more to do with the fact that i had been reading snipets out of my hypnobirthing book while i was up at the hopsital for my glucose test :D
