    I'd rather not have her there tbh... They'll be running hours behind and the way she's behaving at the minute I'd rather keep her behind closed doors! I've rung the antenatal clinic, the best they can do is ask me to come in at the start of clinic time (1:30) and hope that I get seen and get out before 3...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Oh Krystal,thats awful! xx
    Im in the same boat as you regarding kids..my 6year old son came out of school..first thing he did was ask for sweets :mad::mad: All the other kids were pleased to see their mums/dads/grandparents ect..but oh no not Ellis, he just nagged for sweets then when I said no, threw a pathetic tantrum and he's been giving me lip since we got in through the door. Great eh. Really missed him all day too,little git :rolleyes:
    Theres nothing like being brought down from a high with a big thud!

    Ladies with babes already - Have any of you used a floating bath support thingy like this? http://www.jojomamanbebe.co.uk/detai...anch=&category
    Just mulling over if it would make it easier than using the baby bath which I always hated

    OMG!!!

    If that diagram is accurate, then I was measuring at 20 weeks when I was only 15!

    Now I really am freaked out. When they said I was big for my dates, I just assumed they meant by a week or so, not more than a month. I really really want the 15th to come quickly as either there's more than one in there, or I'm giving birth to one the size of a toddler not a newborn!!!!

    I never used a baby bath for either of my two. I bathed both of them in the kitchen sink in (clean) washing up bowl until they were old enough to sit up by themselves. This worked really for me, as I didn't have to bend down over the bath, the washing up bowl was of a size that even if I had let go of them by accident for a second, they couldn't slip under the water level, and it was dead easy to fill and empty with nothing heavy to carry. And also as this is a money saving site, as cheap as chips.

    Just a quick question!? Is it possible to start showing at 7 weeks? xxxx

    Your 'showing' would be pretty much just water/bloat. At 7 weeks, your baby only measures about the size of a 5p piece! So even if there were 2 in there, the odds of them making a bump are near impossible. It's probably just your body storing extra fluids to help care for the baby!
