Tigs - that icon needs to be used tons more on this thread!

Caz - thanks for the offer, I may well take you up on that!

Tigster - mine didn't ask either after a casual 'have you given any thought to...' at booking in appt. I asked today about when we need to sort the birth plan so that's what prompted it. She didn't seem to think it was urgent - our home visit won't be til after my next appt (32 wks)

Nice bump and very neat!

People keep saying "neat". I feel like an outhouse!

There's a straight-on one on my FB page where my maternity shirt, which was hopelessly gigantic when it arrived right after Christmas, is gaping at the buttons.

I do love the idea of a takeaway after birth, but we're going to the birthing clinic with NICU and lots of medical staff. My placenta is bipartite and my biggest fear is rupturing it and haemorrhaging during birth, and not being close enough to medical staff.

SS That is such a lovely bump. I hope mine looks like that. I currently just look as if I have had a few too many (pork) pies!

Tigs - cool smilie.

I haven't considered a HB. Think I will keep to the hospital as I would be too scared things would go wrong and OH wouldn't like it either. Plus I would just like that reassurance that someone will be there to help me with my first feedings, bathing, etc. I am such a wuss.

wm - Thanks! It doesn't look much in the pic does it?!
I'll watch it and if it goes cheap I might get it!

Sugar - all I get is 'Oh, your so neat?' You can't even tell from the back - I should have taken a front and back pic as well as the side view I posted last night!

No it doesn't. Much better on. But as you are a similar size, thought i'd mention it.

Now, I really need to stay away from Ebay. Do not need to buy anymore clothes. Must repeat this over and over, and maybe it will stick.

I don't think I saw yours Glam - will go back now and look for it.

I'm a bit wider across the backside, but other than that I still have a waist from the back and apparently from behind it's not clear if I'm pregnant or just generously bottomed.

Edit: That's at 27 weeks?! I am irate that you're getting off so easy! THAT's a neat bump.

Lovely little bump

My neighbours dog is doing my head in with it's stupid little dog yip :mad: They have the cheek to complain if it's someone elses dog too! Water pistol does the trick with my mutt, pump it a few times and he knows not to bark!

Sugar - do u think it's big or small then?

SugarSpun

Yours? I think it's a lovely size. I think I was bigger, I was already waddling a bit by that stage, but you're not worryingly tiny. It looks to be really solidly all baby as well.
