    Just caught up with the thread and read my own post and panicked "oh no, I'm supposed to be cooking dinner" before I remembered I had put it on and it is cooking.


    I worry myself sometimes.....

    is someone a bit excited??????? ;):D

    Actually I was thinking.... when I had DD3, I'd had a few niggles that I completely discounted, and then fairly regular 'braxton hicks' ( :rolleyes: ) .... which I completely discounted..... until I went into full blown labour and had her 53 minutes later :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I wasn't ready to go at all, bag not packed etc! I was booked to have a section, later that week, so I was there thinking there was no way on earth I could be in labour at 37weeks!!!!! :o:D:D:D

    I know I don't have the record for fast birth between the flyladies though.... can't remember who it was but it was faaaasssssttttttt :eek: :rotfl:

    Hi everyone. Had a friend over this morning with her LO so have not done much flying this morning but did do a quick HHC straight after putting DD2 in bed. I have also stewed lots of apples to make apple pie for a house party at SIL's house on Friday night. Forgot to get the butter from the shop straight from school so will have to make the pastry later on or tomorrow.

    Afternoon all :wave:

    Jo - I was off my work for 6 months last year. I think most of that was down to the fact that I was only off for 6 weeks the year before and hurried back. Didnt want anyone to think badly off me. Now, I'm back at work, on the ADs and dont care. Actually, the 3 of us who are senior on the team are all on ADs. I think that probably says more about my work than us! Look after yourself. Take as much time off as you can and let your body relax xx

    Toots - thinking of you luv xx

    Rosepink - you sound much brighter today. Please dont let that erse upset you anymore xx

    I've forgotten who else was needing hugs....so hugs to everyone :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: oh dear, that really does look dodgy...

    SSL xx
