What about a going home outfit for you Tickle?

I have taken the bedding out of the drier that's been in there a week... Have put the wet washing in... And put a new load on... And cleared one work surface (the one that gets used as a dumping ground)

Shopping is due anytime after the next 7mins and I still need to clean the top of the oven, the other work surface, around the sink, and the floor... Just had to sit down for a min...

Had constant heartburn since yesterday, nothing is shifting it... Plus I have a headache and surprise surprise, hubby's taken all the paracetamol over the weekend... Just not feeling good today

I can only cope with Rennie chewy for my heartburn, everything else makes me feel sick.

Pretty sure bag for CS will be very similar to normal delivery, they only keep u in for about 48 hrs these days.

other suggestions for the hosp bag:

lip balm (or use the vasaline)
drinking straw/cartons of drink (for when you're in strange positions - although not really needed for a CS!)
Mags/books/mp3 player
tens machine and batteries

I've packed cotton wool for baby - do u think the hosp will provide this? my bag is so full need to remove anything thats not needed!

Tickle hope all goes well - You can't have yours before mine after all It's not fair for starters! :P
I want this baby oooouuuuuuttttt!
37+2 and I'm so exhausted all the time it's not funny! Went up for a shower and had to have a snooze afterwards Feel like another snooze now again to be honest!

In all fairness bubs is measuring full term already so my EDD may be wrong. I am at the "fed up" stage and I just want to meet bubs, so although a Csection would freak me out, I would be so happy to meet bubs early and get my body back.

Do you know, I bought some 'casual' (plain black, jersey feel, not joggers) trousers 2 sizes bigger than my normal trouser size when I was first pregnant because I couldn't fit in my own clothes and wasn't big enough for maternity trousers... They're still the most comfortable trousers I own... and were £8 compared to my overpriced and uncomfortable maternity combats... I just went and bought some similar stretchy ones just 1 size bigger than normal to wear home from the hospital (they were a tenner, they only had £8 ones in my pre-pregnancy size and I doubt they'd be any good!) Tried them on and they fit fine now, come right up my bump too!

Bloomin tesco just turned up while I was writing this post... Typically I hadn't cleared the sides either... Not that the spotty oik that just delivered the shopping would of noticed... At least he carried the baskets to the kitchen... But he just stood there while I emptied them... I made sure I did it one item at a time though
