    I found having 3 or 4 rich tea biscuits BEFORE I moved - not even sat up! - and lying down for another 10 minutes really helped. But it's important you don't move until they have had a chance to go down... it's what got me through the 18 weeks of morning sickness *sigh*

    Right I ought to go and do some work really... My legs, hips and back are still really really bad... Feels like my hips want to pop out of their sockets... not nice at all!
    On the upside DH is coming with me to hospital on Friday - not sure why but he wants to be with me... I explained it's 3 hours of being sat on my bum but he's insisting lol Bless his cottons :)

    How old is said toddler hun?
    Mine's 2 and a bit, very cute butter wouldn't melt type, Just like his mummy :shhh:
    I;m very proud of him because he asked to have the same as mummy and daddy for tea last night and shovelled it all down :T he normally refuses to eat what we are

    Toddler will be 2 in May, looks like butter wouldn't melt, too, but we know better, hehe :)
    He usually eats what we do - last night he had a whole M&S mince & onion crispbake, Sunday's tea was kedgeree & ate a bowlful! We've always given kids what we eat, within reason - hate cooking more than one meal. Even give them curry, etc., but dish up theirs first with no salt & hardly any curry, then zip up our helpings. Tonight we're having pasta bake & veggie things, which he'll prob eat, too, followed by apple chopped into yoghourt - feel hungry already!
    Got to take teenage DS to college (late start today) - lazy b gets out of bed late just so he can have a lift! Tell him how DH & I had to sort out ourselves, parents didn't drive etc., he says 'in the old days...!'

    Glam you don't want that one, you want the one i'm going to stick on ebay! (if I ever get round to it)

    Off topic but hey, whats new? Did anyone else think ITV were wrong to show coronation street with the housefire storyline and then law and order with a storyline involving 17 people burning to death bearing in mind the house fire in Doncaster over the weekend? I was a bit mad about it and have emailed itv to say how insensitive I thought it was

    I have never ever been able to go braless - even strapless bras are useless! At nights now I wear a sports bra because bobbies are sooooo sore

    Millie's Mum - oh sounds interesting. You joing us over on ebay baby fund thread? What size is the dress?

    Thanks NMS, I keep looking at the ASOS ones but i worry that they're all a bit short and will look a bit gross with my chubby little pins? I've ordered one anyway, i can always send it back if it loks horrid, so i now have 4 dresses arriving this week, hopefully one will be good enough for the wedding on Saturday!
  • I like both them dresses - i also like the purple one here, but I haven't got plans to go anywhere *sniff*

    Oh Hypno - which one have you gone for? and chubby pins - I doubt very much :naughty:
