    It's funny, I am more scared to talk about the dangers now I am pregnant (like if I ignore it it will go away)


    Is DD not on half term tomorrow? All our kids are!

    I am tumble drying my second load of Bubba's clothes...will be off to fold them all and ooooh and aaah over them in a min!

    My mum is on half term too.
    I'm jealous!! I want a tumble dryer

    I think Sami is right, as always!
  • Just sorting out Jamie's memory box and thought I would mention that if you're making one then remind OH to buy the birth day's paper (Sunday Times for both of mine! :D).

    We also have a copy of No1 in the Charts for that day too.

    Elle - ooh take a big wheeled suitcase so you can fill it with what you buy, easier to get on the train ;)

    I need to find out how big the locker things are at the NEC..

    Was just going to travel very light for the overnight stay so I can put everything in a rucksack and carry it round with me. Mum said it would balance me out - bump at front, bag at back! :(
  • mm - that is a short break!

    I'm not going to work tomorrow la-la-la!! Don't know what I am going to do actually :confused:

    I might finally pack my hospital bag - I seem to only be active during hours of daylight!


    Sami - I didn't have a tumble dryer til hubby moved in with me 3 years ago - now I would hate to live without it.

    I still iron everything though :o

  • elle, when I went last May you could have all your purchases held for you until the end so you can [STRIKE]go and get a second set of freebies[/STRIKE] buy more stuff!

    Do you think that your babies future will be shaped by the type of paper that you buy ;):D



    Any thoughts on whether babies go quiet for a while before they are born? I keep thinking that if I was going to make a long, hard journey then I would rest up the day before :confused:


    ETA - do you think my boobs will know when Bubba is likely to start before I do? My boobs have been sore all day...as if they are preparing!!

    sami - thanks so much for those links. i will have a look in asda this week.

    had a bit of a scare over night/this morning, but all okay. can't explain it i dont think without soundling like i panicked over nothing but another realisation that being a mum is getting very close.

    Just reading this thread as I am currently 12 days over for the monthly "visit" and think I may be pregnant again.
    Already have 3 and didn't plan any more but these things happen lol. I am still a bit in shock yet and not quite ready to do a test.

    To all those ladies overdue I had all 3 of mine over with no problems at all. My great aunt had 5 all over and I was 2 wks over, so for our family 42 wks seems to be full term (I also go around 31 days for a monthly cycle rather than the 28 so it matches that).
    Baby 3 gave me aches and dull pains for 3 weeks then at 11 days over came in a big rush. Picture preg lady in wheelchair being pulled along looooonnnnnggg hospital corridor to maternity unit at back by OH whilst shouting "I can feel the head hurry up".
    2 MW threw me on a birthing bed and told me to push, meanwhile they were tearing open birth kits etc. No time for drugs and about 3 puffs of gas n air. 10 mins start to finish, but very painful and intense lol.
    BTW all 3 finally came after the OH doing his ahem "bit"
