I don;t think there have been any births, as Candice would have been before you went away (and we've not heard from her).
Elle's baby Rhys has been doing really well - he's opened his eyes and is going onto the CPAP machine which is a step forward, plus he is now moving around more and stretching.
Poor Bumblebee has lost her baby but is hanging round still and chatting.
Other than that I think we've just been nattering.
On a personal note I've nearly bought everything off my list now and the house is almost sorted too.
How's you?
Thankyou!
Good to hear about Rhys, I did go back and check Elle's messages so i managed to keep up on his progress but the other 60-odd pages of messages were a bit too daunting! So i went for cheese and strawberries on our friends terrace instead...:D
Sorry to hear your news Bumblebee, hope you're ok.
Glad things are finally getting sorted Skinty, I knew your OH would get things done in the house when baby was this close, guess he finally realised that it NEEDED to be done!0 -

My blood pressure has come in at 120/49 is it just me or does that seem really low ? They didnt say anything whilst i was there so took it as it was ok.
Hope your all well :-) xx
If thats a low BP thn I'm practically dead! :rotfl: the 49 is a bit low tho
(my BP is between 80/50 - 100/60)- yes I faint when pregnant and hot!0 -
Rose - Hello :wave: and welcome to the pregnancy club :beer:
I am loving all the bump pics that were posted last night, but very jealous of all your neat bumps. I have a flabby bit underneath mine that hangs out of some of my clothes, it is just gross _pale_.
I am so hot - I am sweating from every pore on my body, we bought a tower fan from Tesco on saturday (£25 from their value range) that is helping though. Yesterday I had a banging headache all day and felt quite faint too, so I will mention that to mw when I see her tomorrow, although I think it was just because of the heat.Value of prizes 2010 - 2017: £8374 Wins 2022: Magic set

I should really be out n about this morning but I'm sooo tired, so is Chris we were all up a few times in the night - it was 25.5 degrees in my bedroom at 3am!! Everytime I woke up OH was awake too so he's probably ver grouchy at work today!
I did enjoy 5 mins sat on the bath with my feet in cold water last night before bed but I couldn't stand any longer coz my bum was going numb on that narrow ledge!0 -
Should have done what I did sitting here by myself last night when you all left me !!
I filled a basin with cold water and sat on the sofa watching TV with my feet in the cold water !!

I'm considering sitting on the edge of the bath with my feet in cold water...
:rotfl: just watching a load of old big bro clips of funny moments! ehehehehehehe
ohhh nothing better than a skiddle! I need to buy a pump to get the kids paddling pool up, it's a huge car one and I can lie flat out in it
Lolly, hope your bubs wakes up and performs the nutcracker in there!
Rose, I use the asda sensitive on DS2 as pampers etc (even pampers sensitive) give him nappy rash! They are great, and he is 4 years old, so you can imagine the poop! :rotfl: Plus they don't have that sickly smell that pampers have.
And with DS2 I was off work from about 20ish weeks with SPD, think officially it was 24 weeks, as untill then I was off with hyper emesis. You will be glad to know that apart from a few weeks about the 16 week mark when I was sore, I've been lucky enough not to get it again this time. I'm 28 weeks tomorrow.
I'm 28 weeks tomorrow! And that was my main target
:D:D I have however fell out with my BP moniter. Keeps giving high readings. No headache today, well a bit but nothing worrying. MW on thursday, growth scan the following wednesday. Assesment went great today, took me a whole.... 15mins! :cool: Me, I'm dead clever me 
Salad box with mexican tuna and mexican chicken, a soft roll and a can of cherry coke before doing the housework. House is a pigsty! Dirty plates and food everywhere! Me, I'm a pure hussy me
