    Sami - I received the email with the bio-oil the other day, that's how I knew about it! Mine arrived today and the bottle is huge!! It must be at least 3 times the size of my 60ml bottle :p

    Don't know if you lot have seen the debenhams outlet on their website (think all year round sale) but there is some maternity stuff in there.

    You people talking about bejeweled has got me hooked and I blame you all.

    Lunch at Haus Sugar was leftover tortelloni with vegetable sauce and a chicken and stuffing sandwich, with a big glass of orange juice. I've done tons of the stuff on the list, and am about to call one or both these midwives whose numbers have been given to me and see about English-language birth classes, then I'll do some cleaning out of the living room and then sit down and consider my options. Will I finish sewing the sock monkey while watching America's Next Top Model on youtube, will I do the dishes, or will I take a nap? I have a very exciting hour of starting to write a paper scheduled for later on but that's not for just yet.

    Me 4. My family are at least 6-7 hours away in Scotland and DH's family are about 4 hours away in Kent so we are alone in the middle (and our cat Houdini, but not sure he will be much help :D). Although this will be the first granchild for my parents so I think my Mum will be down for a bit, but my dad is a teacher so kind of non-flexible for holidays. We have a few friends here but only recent ones as we've only been here 2 years so far, but my Mum has done this in the past so I am sure we'll be fine.

    Me 5!! My family are back in the US and though DH's family are about a 2 hr drive away, it's not really the same. It'll be the first grandchild for either set, too.

    Also don't really have any real friends around here, so it really will just be me, DH and the babe. I totally feel you ladies & will definitely be a bit more nervous about not having experience moms around when it gets closer to birth time. Really hoping to meet some ladies in the area via NCT classes and NHS classes - I hope!!

    would like to win a holiday, please!!

    I know what you ladies mean about being on your own with family living away. Although my in-laws normally live 2 minute drive away, they live in France from April-end of September, they will be coming back for a week when the baby is born (although MIL keeps saying it would be easier if I had a C-section, then she would know when to book the ferry for :rolleyes:!).
    And my parents live a 45 minute drive away but they don't have a car, so it would mean a 2 hour journey each way on 2 buses for them.
    I don't have any "real" friends either. But tbh, I have always been a bit of a loner, as has DH - so going it on our own doesn't bother us too much, and i have you lot to keep me sane when the baby comes along!

    How do I play bejeweled that everyone is talking about???

    Thanks for telling us about your HiPG Elle-gee. I sent mine off this week so hopefully it will take 4 weeks like yours did. Yay. Already spent some of it!

    Tesco delivery has been, shopping put away and 1 doughnut down!

    Now I have a lunch dilemma, do I make myself a nice healthy chicken salad sandwich, or do I just have another doughnut? :think:

    Nothing to report as yet thank God! Had a lovely bath, couple of twinges while I was in there and a couple since I got out, but not as painful as earlier (unless because I was moving around I didn't feel them as much?).

    Just had a couple of little crusty rolls with cheese & onion sandwich filler on them ~ now I'm bored again!

    Oh and why is it, that even though you tell people you will let them know as soon as anything happens, you still get texts and phone calls saying 'any sign yet?' :mad:

    I feel like replying and saying 'Yes, he's here, just couldn't be arrrsed letting you know!' :cool:
