Every time i tried to diet he would guilt me into eating lol. Now when i complain i feel fat he say's "its not fat its the baby" (who is 0.6 inches lol)
And "you need to eat more the baby requires it" And offer's me a cornetto
So of course i take it lol.
But i have been eating less since i found out i was pregnant (mainly due to stupid working hours) but i've put on weight lol.
And KFC? Surely McD is cheaper?? lol. And more unhealthy and fattening?

Thanks Mrs T. I haven't looked at nursing bras yet. I asked about soft cup ones and the girl just said no as they wouldn't have enough support. I expressed concern about getting bigger but she thought the JJs would have enough room for a bit of growth. I think I'm a bit smaller than a 34 back, but 32 is too small so got a bit of room left.
She told me to come back about 4 weeks before I am due to look at nursing bras. On the Bravissimo website, they seem to go up to a J cup, so will probably have to settle for that. I really hope they go down after the birth, but I know my luck! Might try cotton wool, although you would think padding is the last thing we need! Even on holiday in the Canaries, I was too cold and was in agony. Roll on the summer....hmm, that's right, I'm in Scotland!:rolleyes:0 -
I'm a 34E, still wearing underwires though.
I asked earlier about the mamas & papas murano cotbed. Anybody seen it in the shop?Too many children, too little time!!!

Haha my OH doesn't care what fast food it is, as long as its edible
I hate him though, he's really skinny (like stupidly thin) and he eats as much as he wants, and never puts on weight. Before we got together he 'tested' his metabolisim and ate fast food every day for a year and actually lost weight! :eek:
Now i've been cooking him real food he's put on half a stone
But is still skinny lol. (he had cheesecake for breakfast this morning!) I cant even look at food without going up a dress size :rotfl:

EA - thanks for that about dresses in Primark, don't shop in there often, but don't really need work maternity clothes, got enough from last time, but could do with something looser SOON! I've got a couple of pairs of really old, horrid joggers that I put when I get in for the day, but they've really had it. Need some underwear, knickers are on their last legs, too. Also seen loads of nice tops in normal clothing, smock-type things, that I should be able to wear most of the summer, might not be too big until about August, judging by other pg's. Our shops are pants for maternity clothes, only M'care & D'Perkins, with very small range - would have to go to Leeds, Sheffield or somewhere to buy properly.
Don't usually like clothes shopping, hangover from being overweight for more than a decade, but fancy getting a few nice things for ME for a change!
Think the only things we need to buy for baby are a few new size outfits/vests, etc., new teats for bottles (just in case!), nappies & something to sort out old cot base, so I think I can justify spending a few quid on me. Bet the rellies offer to buy even those few things, actually, so might be even less expensive baby, to begin with at least! :rotfl:

Tara, I haven't been in any shops, sorry.
Kids bathed and in bed, dishes done, house is tidy enough. I am shattered, think I have overdone it just a tad. Going to wait till kids pass out then go for a bath.
Maybe a little look at kiddicare and mothercare to help me relax
