    Good for you!

    Have to admit there's a fair bit of resting going on in the Den too... I need at least one nap a day and could probably do 2 shorts ones, one late am, one late pm! Feel a bit useless as DH is doing so much more!

    I was only saying last night that I don't need to nap but a girl I met at Parentcraft has to nap everyday - she pees every 5 minutes as well! Felt quite sorry for her.

    OH is doing loads at the moment but mainly so that I don't do anything to bring labour on! He's always making me drinks and getting me snacks because it takes me about ten minutes to get out of the chair :rotfl:

    community mw called today to do my BP and general check up.

    bp was up on the under bit. --- 122/86 was 110/70 on fri. but urine was clear!!

    felt round baby and baby is at the edge of my pubic/pelvis bone so she said that baby will most likely drop in the next few days!!

    said to DH... 2 days of operation eviction and baby is moving!! (we had some exercise again this morning) better start drinking more RLT quick!!

    I did mine at about 25 weeks - OMG talk about 'Out of sight, out of mind'

    Been trying to keep on top of it now every week - I use an electric razor so it doesn't matter if I can't see as long as I get my vitals out the way!!!

    Usually I epilate every couple of weeks but I can't see either the top of my bikini line or the line running down from my belly button (i know this is quite weird to get rid of hair here but it's such a dark line - always has been - and looks very odd!) Def a case of out of sight. Well, the weather is supposed to be bad for the rest of the week - give me something to do!:rotfl:

    I'm getting up about 2-3 times a night to pee and I suffer from IC, too. I do pelvic floor exercises and somedays I can really control the flow and other times if the baby is right on my bladder I have no control. Sometimes when I cough or sneeze I have to cross my legs otherwise I get a tiny leek! Makes me feel about 90:rolleyes:

    Did u see that someone linked to a website that said about Calcium reducing BP and therefore risk of Pre-Eclampsia.

    Wow, I feel so lucky - I only need to get up once in the night and that's generally 3 hours or so after I go to bed. And, I drink quite a bit in the evening!

    I'm doing my pelvic floor now - it's never too late to start and is supposed to help with labour as well cos muscles are used to contracting!
