    Ta! That's the one I need to put our P60 figures into but OH has now misplaced his P60.. It'll be somewhere in the house, he knows not to get rid, but god only knows which box it's in!

    Speaking of being organised, Mum was just reading the Pregnancy & Birth magazine I bought today and said she'd read the "nesting instinct" kicks in at about 36 weeks.. OH's eyes lit up at that too. He's hoping it stays for me and I become a domestic goddess! :o

    I'll be happy to just turn into a domestic princess!!

    Right I must go - I'm trying to do some OT, need to clean kitchen and get everythign ready for big night tomorrow - need to be suited and booted by 5.45pm!!!

    Glam, did you say it was an awards night with your work that you're going to? Have you won an award or do you find out on the night? :) Enjoy, either way! :D

    It's OH's work but it's the Academy kids that get awards. OH has done a motivational DVD with music picked by Moi!
    Then next Monday he has another awards do (which partners don't get invited to grr!!)

    My work awards are in June - I better win this year! They get funny if you get nominated and then don't go so last year I got an 'ad-hoc' award for Leadership. This year, I should get manager of the year but since the pregnancy they've been a bit funny so who knows!!

    I think I had about 8 pairs, I know I had a pair that were really good but they were ones I was given not sure where they were from but I used socks as most are pants n just fall off

    I think I'm the only one here with a thyroid condition, but I'll ask in public just in case..

    Krystal, if you're around.. have you ever heard of thyroid conditions (underactive, in my case) causing problems with breastfeeding, or rather milk supply? I saw a brief mention of it on the Parent Thread the other day, and just wondered if you had any recommendations for where I look for real info on it before I start a Googl'ing frenzy! Thanks lots :)

    Phew, just caught up!

    Many thanks for all the birthday wishes. :beer: I have had a lovely day, DH has been an angel, making sure I didn't lift a finger and took me out for lunch!
    I was going to buy some maternity tops with some of my birthday money, but when we went to the checkout DH insisted he pay as an extra present - he also told me to expect more presents to arrive over the next week :confused:. Not sure why I deserve all this attention, but I am enjoying it all the same!

    Congratulations to shellsuit on the birth of baby Dylan, he is gorgeous :beer::j

    BTW, I am sure I remember someone talking ages ago about problems because of coldsores in pregnancy or did I dream that :o. I think I am getting one :(
