I'm like that Tia... Usually end up with food spattered over my chest but seeing as the belly sticks out even further now it seems to be taking a worse hit... I am wearing a very busy maternity top at the minute, it's like gypsy style, lots of colours and covered in little flowers... It hides more than a multitude of sins!

My hubby just arrived with the curry... Best go and do it... Am surprisingly hungry, even after the pineapple... Think he might of picked up some evening primrose capsules too... In for a penny...

Help me ladies.. OH is looking at me like I've gone mad!

We've just been talking about what needs to go in my hospital bag and I mentioned clean tshirts for him. He was puzzled and I said that we could be there for a while and I wanted him to have a clean tshirt, especially if anything happened to me and he would need to give Bob skin-to-skin contact.. He doesn't believe me when I said he'd have to put Bob inside his tshirt - either that or he just takes his tshirt off and sits there topless. His words were "Sod off, you just want to see me topless - any excuse!" :rolleyes:

Please can someone tell me where I can find info on why skin-to-skin contact is important? I kinda know it is, but not exactly why..

DH was asked to hold DS2 skin to skin on day...2 I think, after he came off the ventilator as I was unconscious for 3 days. Although it was only for a short time. So it does happen Elle's OH!!!!!

And also you may get vomited on, blood splatterage, goo splatterage or an Elle sized hand print of stuff (might be sweat, might be something else).

elle - my MW discussed this with both of us at booking in and gave me a leaflet - OH still thinks it's gross! Said he wants them to wash him first - but I know he will change his mind!

Oh - I'm cooking curry too!! Let's hope I don't spill it on myself! Although I do that when I'm not pregnant!

In saying that, I'd want them to wash her first too... DS1 was washed (he had to be resuscitated) but I remember looking down to this little alien trying to prop his head up for a look about Happy times.

(have we convinced [strike] bullied[/strike] him enough yet Elle?)
