    The only oil I've got is vegetabe oil and virgin olive oil - would they work or does that now make me look daft?!
    I'd take a guess that KY Jelly would work :confused: I know they sell that in asda so I presume tesco have it too

  • Morning all - just had a home-made mini quiche for breakfast because we don't have any milk!! Twas yummy!


    Weezl - get yourself out and buy a car seat today...THE most important thing. I know you are planning a homebirth but they won't let you out of the hospital without one. I wouldn't be sleeping if I didn't have mine all sorted now.

    P-Massage - I honestly can't reach :o I am struggling to wipe myself these days :o (still trying to convince myself that I am not the size of the octopus woman)

    We are having a nightmare with decorating the nursery...which part of me knows we won't need to start with but part of me wants finishing so I have somewhere to put all the baby stuff that poor DSS currently has strewn all around his bedroom.

    HUGS to triggles and ladies with broken foofs.

    Veg oil should, olive oil is too viscous (thick). (I learned that on Saturday Kitchen)

    Which bit did u learn from sat kitchen - the word viscous or the actual fact? :rotfl:
    I love sciencey words like viscous but my faves are turgid and flaccid still makes me giggle now!:rotfl:

    LOL, all the propa science stuff is from college (I'm doing a biomedical course, so lots of biology and chemistry) but the olive oil was celeb masterchef. Olive oil is too thick to deep fry with, so your chips come out looking peely-wally.

    I like turgid and flaccid too.... Prefere turgid right enough :D And hypo, hyper and isotonic. And machrophage.... It all just sounds so made up :D

    It's when I ask for ethanoic acid on my chips that DH gives me a funny look.

    oh and here, online shop selling proper ultrasound gel http://www.twenga.co.uk/dir-Health-Beauty,Medical-supplies,Ultrasound-gel

    Sorry, my mistake, it directs you to where you can buy it.

    so, doppler gel from amazon, £3.00 plus £2.25 delivery.

    Right, I'm off to raid my very depleted wardrobe for something to wear today.. Really wish I could come home with lots of new clothes but with only a small Mothercare in our town I'm not holding out much hope! :(
