    I am glad I whispered



    Technically I have nearly one left - but lets not dwell on that - cheers hun.

    How are you feeling these days my dear? I haven't been very good at keeping up, are you all moved in now? How is bump treat8ing you now?

    Im doing ok, got heartburn the past two days so trying to not slouch... it would appear Dr Pepper does not help :rotfl:

    All moved in, just waiting for my beautiful boy Gordon to come up on mothers day weekend. Desperately need some curtains though. The old tenants took all the curtain fittins (they may actually have bought them but we werent sure) so we're THAT family who currently have bed sheets up over the windows LOL.... Hopefully get those sorted out on DH's days off this week.

    Bumps is treating me well.... kicks getting a lot stronger, even cause me to sit up and move sometimes... violent little sod :) It still doesnt feel that real though....

    CMD - All the tips Ive read say curries, bouncing on gym balls, mild exercise - walking, raspberry leaf tea, orgasms and tweaking your nipples help to bring on labour xx That and try to plan something..... but that is just general sods law :rotfl:

  • Loving the classy interior design CAFC - if you get any comments just claim it is an ironic statement about something (anything really although sex or the state of society generally works well)

    Hmmm i am not sure that the list of things that help women to get things moving wasn't invented by a man (except the raspberry leaf tea, although they may have thrown that one in to make it look less of a stitch up)

    CMD I recommend raspberry leaf tea capsules regardless as they are supposed to lubricate the way out - and since they worry it can induce early labour if you use it earlier in pregnancy - it may well be true!

    They reckon if you are nesting and cleaning - it is a sign you are about to come... I don't know....
