Hi all

Congrats to the flurry of new babies that have arrived the last couple of days! :j:j Looking forward to some more pics & stories. Can't remember if I'm 19th or 18th now - getting scarily close, though! :eek:

Went to hospital today for scan to check if baby is breech - thank goodness it isn't, lovely doctor who seemed as pleased as me that bean will be born in our hospital & not over t'hill.
Finished last work & posted back to magazine the other day, other job also finished for mat leave, some of tidying jobs nearly done, hosp bags partly packed & managed to get out of loads of cooking for family party on Friday - they've taken pity on me cos of bump!!:rotfl::jAll I need now is for car dealer to ring me & say new car will be early & the world will be perfect!
Off for some RLT, hardly had any yet but lots of you seem to swear by it & I bought some, so will have a go. Tend to have very quick labours, but it might help things afterwards I hope.
I'm a childminder & just wanted to point out that rules says that if you look after a child not your own for more than 2 hrs a day and/or for payment you should be a registered childminder or other provider. Not an anorak, just want you all to be careful, I know how hard things are for us all!

Are m&p outlets much cheaper? there is a fairly new one not too far away from us that we haven't been to yet but would like to go.

Congrats on the birth of your baby jille and wow cauaght up before but forgot to post 20 wks 32b it really will go fast for you. Great news.

Here is my 26 week bump that MW said was measuring a bit big for this stage. I am bigger this time around. Not brave enough to show a bare tum it is rounder when my jeans aren't squashing it in a bit.

It's quite hard to take a pic of yourself. OMG my bum looks just as big as my bump! Which one is which? is the pic back to front? lol



and bubs

Besides, i have the cat to eat the flies, she doesn't do spiders though lol. Wonder if i could train the dog to eat them.

My two dogs eat the spiders for me. 2 weeks ago OH came to the car to help with bags when we went in to the house kids were in the loo hiding and we couldn't find the fing thing anywhere. then all of a sudden Tanya shot out of the kitchen and pounced on the spider as it tried to hide behind the TV. MY GIRL she got a massive treat for it. Max will take them out too after he plays with them lol,

Things are bad with sis right now so i may not be on much for a while but i will try to keep up if i get the chance don't want ppl thinking i have went awol(yep mean you jha:rotfl:) Hope you's are all well and have good births and get your mcdonalds when you want lol

Squishy

Morning girls,

am still at least 3/4 asleep - seriously considering going back to bed, though then I feel like I've wasted the morning :rolleyes: Might go for a nap later.

Need to get some more practical stuff done: the washing machine will be on (again!) - hopefully for the last load of babys newborn and 0-3 age range stuff. Anything in a bigger size can wait a while

On the not so practical side, I might try making some thankyou cards, as some people have given us lovely stuff already, and I know I won't have the time to make them after bubs is here!

Right, cup of tea time I think, and maybe some toast...not very hungry just now but finding I'm feeling not hungry to start the day off, but as soon as I eat something that sets me off snacking for the rest of the day

got-it-spend-it

I'm the opposite Squishy- I'm starving in the morning then get less hungry as the day goes on. Very strange for me as I used to do most of my eating in the evening.

Water birth class tonight- not quite sure what to expect but hopefully it will be worthwhile.

Morning,

Congrats to Jillie, can't wait for names & pics

Cheapskate - glad baby has moved

Elasti I'd wondered the same about M&P outlets, we've got one about half an hour away but can't be bothered driving til I know if they're any good :rolleyes: & your bum doesn't look huge at all

On the spider front - my cats love to kill them and then bring them to me :eek: I much prefer them live than dead, we often find them dropped on to the radiators, in our bed, in their beds...they're too soft to go outside and kill birds so I think this is their equivalent!!

Sorry I didn't get back online yesterday, felt like the living dead all day! Managed to get up and get my work down then sat on my backside til OH got home. Then I went to watch him climbing with my bro & sis which was nice & had dinner with my family. Felt like a lemon not being able to climb but thought I'd better not, really worried I'm gonna be so unfit post pregnancy Feeling a lot better today anyway thankfully

Today I'm debating whether to pay and get a private scan - OH thinks we should just do it, I'm too tight As I don't appear to be growing and can't feel anything, I'm really panicking...stupid I know. I half think that if I pay now, I'll want to go next week too, and the week after...and it'll get out of hand So...must try and hold out til 20 week scan in 33 days, or buy a doppler?!

Off out this evening with an old friend who I've not yet told about baby and half tempted not to (have already put it off twice!), as I'm so unsure of whether baby is ok. I drive myself mad!

Morning all,

for those of you who are on my facebook, ignore my angry outburst status i did like 10 mins ago lol. Basically work have declined my holiday i booked and approved OH's even though i booked mine first :mad:

Its because instead of checking it, the manager left it and now it has got declined. And now Oh has a week off and i dont have the same week off, and its our year anniversery then.

Had to help my sister get all her stuff from my mums last night, she may be going into a hostel but wants to save for a deposit for a shared house.
Most of them are saying no cause she's only 17 though

We had this last night, but I paid for it later! Didn't eat until just before Ugly Betty started which is too late for starters, then heavy greasy food on top. I only managed 2 slices of pizza but was up with horrible heartburn and reflux from 3.00 am onwards. Was so bad I ended up getting up at 5.00 am and ironing all OH's shirts, which has never happened in almost 20 years of wedded bliss!

I paid for it last night to, i felt terrible all night It was nice though! haha. They forgot our chicken strippers combo, so i called them and they got the driver to drive all the ay back to my house to give them to me, they were £6.25 im not letting that go lol. I woke up at 6:20am this morning, i had to be up at 7:30am, but i forced myself back to sleep for the last hour
