    Thanks all fro the well wishes.

    Have been bleeding a fair bit throughout this pregnancy but was told that if it is twins then that is more likely to happen. Rang doctor again last night who basically reported everything from my scan earlier in the day so i know hes doing his job properly. He said it may be implant bleeding if there is two placentas trying to attach then there may be more bleeding. Alternatively one cluster had no heart beat present so it could be the body attempting to get rid of it. Either way have had to put a sanitary towel in to monitor blood loss which would be fine if it was making it out of me. It just seems to be pooling at the minute.

    Trying to rest but i have work tonight so hoping i can stand on the till most of the shift and it wont be so bad as lifting etc.

    Am still constantly knackered too. Hoping that the 28th hurrys up though and boyfriend has gone back to work today too so its just me and little one in the flat.
    Time to find me again

    Thinking of you Sammy, try and get as much rest as you can although it won't be too easy with a little boy to keep amused and your work too, but hopefully some rest will help and the bleeding will stop. My sister had some bleeding early on in her pregnancy (she bought a new house before she knew she was pregnant, and her husband is a fisherman and he was away on flitting day) and on the day she moved into her new house she thought she was loosing the baby she had quite heavy bleeding and clots too, but as soon as she got into the house she put her feet up for a few days, and 7 months later a 8lb 2oz baby boy came out perfectly healthy! Keep your chin up x

    I made my reindeer food last night, and had some lovely chiffon tie bags so have put the reindeer food into a zipped food bag inside the chiffon mesh bags, with holly confetti, and tied them onto the reindeers I bought earlier on this month, so it looks like a santa style sack on the reindeer's back, so it looks quite cute, my husband thinks I am insane.

    I have ordered quite a few bits for my husband's christmas, he wants the Spinal Tap box set which comes with mini Marshall Amp, for £49.99 from Play.com, so that's pre-ordered. I have also started piecing together a "Big Bang Theory Hamper" for him, with the first and second series of the program DVDs (the second series is pre-ordered), a collection of Green Arrow comics, A Green Arrow T-Shirt, A Leonard Nimoy Comic, a Big Bang Theory Mug which will contain snowman soup, and a Summer Glau (Sarah Connor Chronicles) Bookmark, think I will put it all in a basket, and add some flying saucer sweets. So organised with that. :rudolf:

    I just won a MARS football, with help of the MARS NO PURCHASE REQUIRED thread on the freebies board, so chuffed, the boys are delighted, they've only got about 12 footballs, so this new one will have a good home!
