Mmmm - microwave popcorn. I love it and it also helped with my nausea
Re: the packing. I just packed the lighter stuff and let OH pack and carry all the heavy stuff. Don't feel guilty about it. You are carrying a baby and need to take it easy. I gave myself plenty of regular breaks and in the end I packed quite a lot of boxes and was a proper help rather than a hinderance!Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

its not so much that im physically incapable, like with a huge bump etc, i think its more feeling so rubbish for so long, and doing not a lot for so long has made me lazy, and im lacking in motivation.....Wealth is not measured by currency0
