    Hi all (two of you - usual suspects!)..

    I'm at home, giggling with my mummy :) Have had a bath, expressed using my hand pump (killer on the biceps after using the electric pump for weeks!), saw my Grandparents as my Grandma came to discuss knitting patterns for the wee dinky cardigans Rhys needs, then been back to the hospital to see the gorgeous wee dinky Rhys, to drop off the milk and to express even more.

    There's enough milk in the fridge now to last until just before the 11am feed so I can chill out a bit now and just express whatever I can tonight and in the morning, plus get a good night's sleep, so hopefully that'll help the supply issues.

    Speaking of milk, huge congrats and hugs to feelie and Baby Toby :D

    Rhys is dressed in a cardi with really long sleeves and he had his arms in the air like he's reaching for the stars and his hands are making a bid for freedom! Saves on scratchmitts tho' ;)

    Am tempted to go raid the freezer.. Dad usually has Magnums in :D

    Wish me luck everyone, I am off to the hospital and hope to return as a mummy xxxx

    Look after your bumps in my absence and if I dont get back on before Wednesday, hope that MM's C-section is as quick and painless as possible. Honeypop, loads of labour vibes to you too.

    See you all soon xxx

    Oooooooooh good luck mooki!

    My lovely husband was awake cleaning till 5am. I think he caught the nesting bug from me. He did defenestrate all the spiders my frantic nesting has dislodged though, that was nice of him.

    Today I'm going to do laundry and dishes first, then flatten some boxes and move them into the pinball room/nursery and then no doubt something else will appeal to me and I'll do that. I'm shattered though from all the cleaning yesterday and then being rudely awakened when he noticed me stirring a bit when he finally came to bed and, taking it as a sign that we could converse, started telling me what he'd been doing. Grr.

    Oh, and tidy the area around my computer. It is a bit of a mountain of crap at the moment.
