    Hi tirl

    I hope you didn't think I was being ranty in my post, I just started typing and it sort of fell out of my head.

    This conversation has made me think so much about what is happening in my world that I had just let roll on. Not a bad thing, I think I need a relationship POA...

    Morning all! OH's tax back was paid to him so that is some more money for baby savings!

    I went to the midwife yesterday and they are sending me for a growth scan next Thursday as the bump hasn't grown since 35 weeks. Am hoping it just means that the baby is well engaged but I was a bit upset yesterday about the whole thing.

  • Sorry to hear that you're worried CMD, hope they can put your mind to rest on Thurs.

    tirlittan - hope you're feeling ok. Wise words from CMD and CAFCGirl!

    How's everyone's weekend going? I've just bought a bright pink leather handbag.

    dont go thinking that changing the font size means I wont notice Snowy....

    How much? and is it lovely? LOL
    I cant say much I bought three beaded necklaces today.

    IN MY DEFENCE however, they were from a charity shop (so a good cause helped) and they were only £1 each (aother good cause helped - me)

    CMD - I can understand youre worried hun, im sure it will all be fine....xx

    Thanks Snow White and CAFC.

    Am okay as was chatting to a midwife friend & she told me to bring my hospital bag just in case. It's more just I would like to have the scan earlier than Thursday but at the same time it obviously isn't an emergency referral.

    What is the bag like Snow White?

    hi cmd - hope all is well - it just shows how complex babies can be.... Hugs I know it is not easy when you don't know what is going on but worrying will do more harm than good

    Hi Snow white - is it gorgeous? :rotfl:

    Hello everyone else - hope things are going well with you this week?

    I'm still off with my knee, going to physio at my expense Tuesday while I await my nhs referral and trying to stay on the straight and narrow.

    Tirl - good luck with the OH decision. I wouldn't be happy at not having the L word by now - I also have seen various people waste years on boyfriends who don't deliver.....
