MSE Pregnancy Club XI

My last official day of work is the 18th June, which is 32 days from today.

8 of those days are weekend days, which leaves me 24 workdays left.

At work before then, I need to:

finish and submit this article
prepare for and attend a workshop
make a report from the workshop
make a plan for some sort of collaboration with the coma project

That's totally doable, actually. Awesome.

I just changed our beds... (Hoping this means my waters might go in it tonight seeing as I went to all the trouble lol) and extracated 2 bin bags of assorted teddies from Aimee's bedroom... With her permission... They are now on freecycle.. Hoping some mad car booter will come and take them off our hands...

It occured to me ealier that I should probably pack Aimee a bag for when I'm in labour too... No good Nanny coming to fetch her in the middle of the night if she doesn't have a school dress for the next day...

quiet today! been lazying on the couch most of the day, as woke up feeling pretty nauseous and icky. Felt just like a bad hangover without the fun of having been drinking the night before!

Bought my first maternity stuff on eBay...guess having the scan was very reassuring and made me less paranoid! I really need some trousers for work, as mine are starting to not button up at all!!

Lolly, sorry to hear your troubles.

Can anyone shed some light for me, I've got a Maxi cosi cabriofix car seat ready but just tried it in the car and I'm a bit worried with how 'wobbly' it seems. I was going to buy the base but never did- didnt think it was very mse- now I'm not so sure.

Any thought girls?? edd tomorrow so I've left it a little late to panic!

well had a nap, watched abit of two pints on youtube, put dinner and peed like 3 times in less then an hour (sorry TMI but its annoying me) and still feel rubbish maybe a hot shower later will sort me out x

Candice, whenever we've had Aimee's carseat fitted properly (usually by a bloke outside Asda) they always lean pretty heavily on the seat and pull the seatbelt as tight as they can get it... It's always less wobbly when they've been at it than when we fit it ourselves...

Just won my second Galaxy book... Let hubby choose this time though seeing as it's him putting all the effort in getting the codes but it's only ones emailed to me that seem to win...

Oh and my baby centre email this morning was entitled 'your newborn' are they just rubbing it in or what?!

aless - I was just about to say the same! I had loadsa pages to catch up on from yesterday and last night and then today - nada!!

Oh well, it's a good thing. I've managed to get in about 5 hours OT today.

Just cooking dinner now - then need to do my NVQ work, why do I always leave it til the night before

It seems better when its the other side of the car but it may just be DH's car, it does have funny seats. Just wondering now if getting a base is worth it?

I've bid on a local one on ebay I'm miles away from ALL others and this has a week to go so I'm not banking on it, I've bid just enough that'l I'll be happy either way.

Paid £81 for the carseat but the base seems to be £93 upwards!!!

GISI - I 2nd that next mat stuff is big, I've been wearing sz12 next jeans for the last 2yrs but my next maternity jeans are sz10 and with 18days (:eek:) to go they still fall down all the time!
if u go for a skinny style tho get ur usual size as the sz12 skinny mat ones were tight on me - go figure!

sorry no real time to post after catching up (MM & SM ur dirty ladies :rotfl:) I had a bad night - woke up twice feeling very hot, sweaty, panicky and incredibly sick!! fingers crossed it was either the spicy food I've had (not good tum this morn ) or that Chris was at MILs and I always worry about him there coz MIL is not at all similar to me in parenting style :undecided
Got to get dressed, collect Chris and visit his Gt Granddad G.
See u later - hopefully not u Tine n Krystal (in th nicest way possible )

ooh how random Hugh Fearnly-Whittingstall is opening the new allotments nr my Mum's today - I'm gutted I can't go n meet him!!!
Even more random the QUEEN is coming to same scummy chav town next week to officially open the new 'sports village'
all pretty swish for a scummy old mining town that was until recently only known for the murder of a 7yo girl!

Why would you want to meet HIM! He lives a couple of minutes from here, not liked locally, shop is well over priced and my friend was so excited to get taken to his restaurant for a birthday treat but was gutted at how pants it was. We have friends who work at River Cottage, believe you me he doesn't actually live in that house and the whole thing is so set up for the cameras.
