    Glam - a sieve WOULD be random coz I'm not having a water birth :p

    the jug is so they can measure any blood loss ;)

    The list they gave me was...
    plastic sheets/shower curtain
    pillows
    bin liners
    absorbent mats
    Birthing ball - if I want
    lip balm
    light snacks
    bath thermometer - if having water birth
    towels
    mat pads - for after
    t-shirt/nightie for labour & 1 for after
    clothes for baby
    measuring jug


    no mention of a nappy tho :p

    My dad lives in the middle of nowhere - nearest street light was a mile away!!!
    Whenever I was home alone I would freak out and imagine things films like Dog Soldiers. I used to have a reoccuring dream about a T-Rex coming over the mountains and everyone in our house standing dead still while my dad snuck out and killed it with the JCB :confused:

    The worst was when my dog would go out at night and randomly start barking at things. I think I have an overactive imagination!

    Oh yeah :o - Maybe I'm obsessed with poo sharks :rotfl:

    Won't the blood be absorbed - can't imagine it coming out in such a way it can be measured :confused:
