She's a bit small to make me feel sick as yet but I find it worse if I am sitting. Oh and driving is worse, especially in my own car as I sit low down with my knee's higher (if you get what I mean). In DH's car it's not so bad as it is like a bus seat.

Eurgh buses are gross! I don't do buses. DH is a bus driver and I refuse to listen to him talking about buses.

It's the feeling of him dragging his fingers along my insides that gets me.. _pale_ (I know that's what he's doing - saw it on the scan)

Hi ladies,

First time I've had a chance to check in for a few days!
We had friends to stay on Saturday and then felt a bit ill on Sunday, so stayed off the lappy as I couldn't be bothered to do anything, and then went to an NCT social evening last night, so didn't get chance to log on last night either!! Not sure I'll get chance to read all the posts from the past few days, as there are 47 pages for me to catch up on.

Going back to the RLT discussion the other day, I asked my MW today about taking it and she said she doesn't advise it until 36 weeks. Everywhere else seems to suggest 34 weeks, so am unsure what to do now. Maybe start at 35 weeks . She said it was because it can bring on labour, but the link that Sami posted the other day (http://www.askbaby.com/raspberry-leaf-tea.htm) says that it doesn't bring on labour, so I'm all confused now.

Talking about bringing on labour, the MW also said that for pineapple to have an effect, it must be fresh and you need to eat seven of them!!! I like pineapple, but seven is loads!!

A big CONGRATULATIONS to Shell and Steve on their gorgeous new arrival.
Off to see how much I can read before DH comes home and we go to bed.

moneymaker - i find its nrmally when i'm sitting actually, maybe just because i'm giving him less room than he likes? lying down is fine, he's has a prod about on the matress side and settles but when i'm sat upright or slightly forward then he goes mad!

oh that BH was a bit too much like the real thing! With the shudder you get and everything.

I've just seen molliethewestie's post saying that her MW said not to take it until 37 weeks.

I feel all

Has anyone else received a reply from Emma-Jane re testing their maternity/nursing items? (Was it Sami who posted the link yesterday?)
I've just had one asking for my measurements and full postal address.
I hope i'm getting some freebies to test!! :j

CHARMING!!! I get them lots of ladies and they don't want my "small" boobs well they can stick their bras up their bum!

Not cheating there are we SM?!!!! :rotfl:

Methinks MM will think you are trying to bring on labour and call it an unfair race!!!

Tinned pineapple doesn't work - has to be fresh

Hi all.. Am feeling a bit better now - thanks for the hugs, Sami! Am eating iced doughnuts just to make sure ...

Always happy to help

wonder how Sami got on at IKEA?

Got everything I wanted plus a bit more :shhh: even though they were pretending they didn't have the child sized table n chairs I found them :cool:
I have a rather stiff back from the walking tho!
Also I'm now wondering if we'll need to get a more expensive mattress for Chris's new bed coz the cheap one feels rock hard when I gave it a squidge :undecided

My cashback from Kiddicare didn't track as I had so much trouble with my card, hope they pay on a manual claim.

I always have to raise a ticket to get mine and it always arrives usually 1 month later than if it had tracked properly

Yup, one of OH's fav lines is "Stop tormenting the baaaaaaaaby!"
ETA: He also keeps saying Bob is going to come out with red rings on him from where I keep resting my cuppa on my bump

Bump always tries to knock my cuppa off if its too warm for his liking:D
