    r.mac - no such routine yet.... was very quiet after the bus exercise for about a day and a bit - I know at 18 weeks it might be a but unusual to notice it anyway but it's DEFINITELY the Bean :)
    Husband just asked what he needs to pick up on his way home... and point blank refused to get me prunes... after some threats and bribing he's grudgingly agreed to get a bag of prunes - bless him... he might be sleeping in the spare room tonight - save him from getting gassed!

    FG, you might find your weight and height will make a difference to the payments. If you consult anf IFA, what they recommend is to work out how much per year you think would be a good amount for your surviving relatives to live on, then work out how much of a lump sum investment would be needed to create that amount of interest per year and that's the sum assured... *disclaimer, I no longer have up to date financial knowledge!*

    I don't mind prunes... in small amounts... Just doing Aimee cheese on toast for tea... A bit stumped what to do her as she's having school dinners this week and had veg, meat and potato with cake and custard for pudding!

    Might get DH to pick something up for us on his way home... I feel chippy chips coming on ;)

    We're having sweet and sour chicken with rice for tea - I can smell it cooking and it just makes my stomach turn.:rotfl: This is normal for me when pregnant - the smell of the food cooking makes me ill - once I'm confronted with a plate of food - I'm fine. Weird, huh? :confused: We had a lovely lamb dinner last night - same thing - nauseated while it was cooking, but oh did it taste great!

    I don't know what the going rate would be for life insurance - I think we each have £100,000 on each of us, plus a few smaller policies. Which I imagine we'll have to up a bit once this one arrives.

    Me too, DH refuses to entertain fajitas! I don't know why either... Might just make them one night and give him no choice... I text him to say bring something home for tea and I'm not bothered what so should be interesting.... I do love a good surprise ;)
