  • Elle we went to see Jimmy Carr last year and he was hilarious but very close to the mark!

    I'm up and dressed and off to work in a couple of hours. I am so worn out today but just could not sleep any later. Have a day off tomorrow so that is something to look forward to. I think part of the problem is that OH is on nights at the moment so comes home at 7-8am and wakes me up, then I can't sleep anymore.

    We saw him last year. He tried to do this thing where he was asking the audience for info on the town and was going to write a joke/story about it in the interval and tell it at the end. He asked things like what's our town famous for, and a famous person from our town.. unfortunately, all the (mostly drunk) audience could think of was a murderer who'd killed two young girls! (was on the national news, you'll all have heard about it, but I won't say it). Think it must have been one of the few times he was completely stumped - there was no joke you could possibly make involving him so JC gave up on that idea!

    We were talking ages ago about if you have more/less/faster/slower hair growing it's an indication of having a boy/girl.... Which way round was it??

    Just realised it feels like forever ago that I shaved my legs and they're still quite smooth! :confused: I was dreading summer with a bump and not being able to reach my legs but if this keeps up it might not be so bad! :D

    Morning everyone

    labour vibes to all that need them and welcome all newbies :j:j

    Well its not all bad in hospital its nice to have your breakfast handed to you every morning, just before the jabs and poking and prodding.

    I have just finished ordering the groceries from tesco online for DH, its so frustrating that my internet connetion goes off like every 5 minutes and can take ages to reconnect, bt have finally got there!!

    Money Maker im in the ante natal ward in the Royal, im not sure if the city has a maternity as i've thankfully never had need to be in the city.

    Can someone also put a little PINK icon beside my name lol. My due date is also 28th July think it was a mistake at the beginning. Thanks

    I was so convinced this was a boy im still trying to get my head round it. So far 2 dotors have commented on "her strong heartbeat" and have said "she is very active"

    morning!! :hello:

    hope everyone is well.
    labour vibes to everyone who needs them...
    welcome to another '22 September Club Member'

    have managed to sort out most of the clothes i need over the next few months. with mum's help have bought a few essential/main things and then others if i need can buy along the way. luckily this summer there is lots of stretchy leggings,floaty tops and smock style dresses etc so without spending a small fortune have got hopefully enough.
    * got 3 pairs of leggings (may get 1 or2 more but only £5 so stillcheap) 1 long, 2 mid calf (i'm 5' 2'' so prob just over the knee on others)
    * 2 pairs maternity jeans
    * 3 gorgeous tops from primark very floaty and ideal for pregnant me (actually in their swim/sun section) nice and colourful and go very well with white leggings
    * sundress
    * have gots lots of stretchy tops already. i like theones that actually cover your belly so should be ok.

    as others have said there is really not a lot of nice, but inexpensive maternity clothes. so i have gone for my normal size but all the ones that are very loose fitting style. i have plenty of room to grow into them all.

    could have prob bought more but my sensible mum said to hang fire as i may find wht i have bought is sooo comfy i wont want to wear anything else.


    its alovely and sunny here so i;m gonna go in a bit and relax in the garden

    Morning

    Elle - I think the saying goes if you have rapid hair growth it's a boy due to the extra testerone in the body. Opposite for you then!

    Where does the time go? :think:
