    Is anyone else finding AM's 'happenings' exciting???

    AM you seem soooo calm, would it be worth getting Aston round to your mums anyway so you can just focus on yourself???
    Nah, I dont want to put anyone out unless it's the real thing.
    I'm so calm coz I've alredy been up the hospital twice with false alarms, so i'm convinced it's not it! :rolleyes::rotfl:

    Hi all..

    Dad's been round and is now armed with his list of garden jobs. Turns out Mum's taking the week off (she doesn't work as such but does lots of voluntary things) too so she's going to come with Dad and strip wallpaper in the hallway :)

    We've also been to a carpet shop and arranged for someone to come round to measure up next week. Been to town to get house keys cut (so Dad's got a set) and picked up a big bag of toffee from Thorntons - yummy! :D Called in at Wickes to check the takeaway bathroom we want really is available for collection next week and it is :D

    I was getting ratty towards the end so OH has dumped me on the sofa to have a nap before going out tonight. Really I'm sat here with my toffee and five episodes of Come Dine With Me to keep me entertained :D

    labour vibes for you AM. Your bean needs a good talking to - either he wants to be a bank holiday baby or not. Tell him its make his mind up time!

    Mrs Moc - I have never been admitted to hospital, so cant imagine how poo it must be. On the plus side, I do like that alcohol hand stuff though and I would be using it all day long!! Keep smiling, your'e a proper little mother hen now sitting on your egg until its time to hatch.

    Tesco man just delivered my shopping and wished me luck with the baby. The AA man did the same on Thursday. I suddenly feel really pregnant! I just said to hubby how glad I am that they dont just think i'm fat.

    Hubby has now stolen my birthing ball to use as a handy foot rest for himself. He also kicked it yesterday like a football and it brought down the whole contents of a shelf off the book case and most of the stuff on the table it landed on. He has also taken to bouncing it like a basketball. How can I be having a baby when my hubby can be so childish!!!! I have to say it does relieve my lower back and pelvis pain when i'm on it, if I ever get a look in between OH's bouncing, kicking and foot resting.

    Sun's disappeared now thanks to next doors garage! I'm the conservatory now just catching up.
    OH home now - I got indian for tea, i always seem to do this when it's hot!!

    I want to watch a film later - will have to see what we've got that I fancy.

    Mookie - I have that rub in my handbag as well as down the corridors in work. Only problem is it makes your hands really dry.

    Do you need a specific birthing ball? My OH has a Reebok Swiss Ball that I was thinking of pinching.

    Did anyone watch Apprentice the other night? It is a Swiss ball and not a Swedish ball isn't it??

    Glam, mine is just a gym ball. You should just make sure that they are anti-burst or something as if it gets a puncture it will then go down slowly. If the ball were to pop whilst you were on it, apart from really hurting your bum, it would probably bring on labour from the shock!!!

    Think its a swiss ball!
