    Hi all..

    I'm at that stage where everyone is looking at me funny - those who know are looking at me and laughing cos they can't get used to seeing me with a bump (used to a flat tummy and not having to think about breathing in) and those who don't (mostly the blokes in the office) are giving me odd sideways glances cos they're not quite sure if I'm preg or just piling on weight and they daren't ask me! :rotfl: They are obviously asking others cos I get a few days of funny looks followed by a "congrats, I've just heard!" email! :T

    I seem to be getting bigger each day (sorry if that sounds like a stupid comment!) cos things which fitted last week don't fit anymore. I've got a top on today which I've had to keep pulling down. It's an ordinary size ten (big boobs mean I always buy bigger tops than bottoms) - I don't think I need maternity tops yet but need to get some "tall" or "long" tops to stretch over the bump for a while :)

    We've not really talked about it but I don't think we're planning another one until the debts are paid off (not mine in the sig, I mean OH's mega ones) which will be about 5years (according to the lovely CCCS people! ;)) There's 17 months between me and my sis and almost four years between OH and his sis - definitely want an age-gap like theirs!

    Still no word from Caz?! She'd better have had the baby and not just have connections problems or something!! :rolleyes:

    I keep thinking about her - so unlike her not to log on for a while, hope everything is okay. Mind you, adding another to her brood is bound to keep her busy for a while.

    Welcome back MrsTine - Hopefully you can relax for the rest of your pregnancy now, without having to jet off anywhere, especially under such emotional circumstances.

    I hope you enjoy your class sami:)

    I was wondering about caz too..wonder how she is?

    I don't think dh knows about the match tomorrow night, maybe I will keep quiet about it. Although he is bound to hear about it seeing as though he attends Liverpool Uni:)

    Our local paper (east end life) is offering free tickets to the first out of a hat. Maybe try googling their website and see if the offer is on line too?
