    ladies can you help.

    i know we had the 'big knickers' discussion a few days ago, but does anyone have any recommendations. i am finding it would like a bit more support for my tummy, as at times my bottom half feels rather heavy.

    also, what are peoples experience of the sizing of Mothercare products. Just looking at one of their nightshirts but wondering if they are little on the small side sizing wise.

    had lunch with a friend today and her little boy (5 months) has bought my little unborn one a christmas present and it is a soft 'roo' from disney. i love it as he has one that i always comment on and the funny thing was i was asking where his was today, come back to work, open the pressie and there is one for my bubs. over the moon!!!!

    I hope you read my post wrong :p I'm only a teeny bit younger than you:cool:
    I'll pretend that my mature chit chat on here makes me seem older :rotfl:sepesh as you've seen a few piccys of me

    I was shocked when I found out Feelie was younger than me tho (you sound very grown up on here Feelie :D)
    Hehe I know but I thought you was about 27 :o
    And I'm shocked that feelie is younger too, never knew that till now. maybe it's because I look about 15 :rolleyes:

    I've got the 2 pack of b/fing night shirts that are 8-10 and still fit me ok now I'm a size 12, also the combats I've got are mat size 8 and they fit me tightly now, but won't when I get a bump so i guess they are a little on the large side :confused:
    I'd sneakily try on a pair over my own nickers if you can :p

  • Hiya ladies!

    Been busy for a little while so it took me AGES to catch up with all of you!

    Sami - thanks for the note about the knickers...I am still stubbornly in my thong (albeit a Mothercare Maternity thong now!) and intend to remain there until I have to wear my minging big pants to go with my surf-boards...

    Will check out the birthing plan thingie in a min.

    Poppyjoe - congrats on the birth of baby Fraser.

    SB - what are you doing here :naughty: b00ger off and produce us a birth story will you ;):D


    For anyone with a sweet tooth - I am currently satifying mine with raisins (and it's working :D )


    Has anyone else clocked that Leanne in Corrie is avec un bump?? Just call me eagle-eye :whistle:

    Love to all, congrats on new BFPs, Scans and all things happy. Hugs for all things sad or worrying.

    I'm a secret Sloggi wearer and have been since I had Poppy! :o. They are so comfy and I just bought the next size up during preg as I prefer over the tum than under. Not very glam I'm afraid! :p.

    I have only bought my maternity PJ's from Mothercare and the size below my usual fitted me perfectly.

    And what a lovely gift for Baby AF! I'm sure I would have a tear in my eye!

    Girls - have anyone else been suffering from fainting? I was standing in line for my lunch at Costco and had to squat down because if I didn't I'd drop! It's the third time now! Definitely worse if I get hot and am standing still I think but it's very inconvenient and a little bit scary too...
    Might get a BP monotir again - used to have one years ago but no idea where it went... guess it could be low BP causing it?
