    Btw There are some really funny babygrows on ebay at the moment depending on your sense of humour lol
    I saw one that said "They shake me" personally I found it hilarious (but I am warped) dh thought it was terrible and banned me from getting it.

    :rotfl:
    Oh, i must be just as warped as you - i just nearly pee'd a little by laughing so much. And i feel guilty for laughing....oh sick sense of humour. My OH would have looked at me like i was a psycho too. :o

    Aless - I am using reusable napppies and they are bulkier than disposable ones (especially as I have ones that should go up to 6 months so can gradually make them bigger but means they are kind of folded down for newborns). I have bought some vest extenders but have kept the receipt and left them in the packet so I can see whether or not I need them.

    Well I had a brilliant start to my day:rolleyes: I had a MW appointment so had to do my urine sample which I do in a plastic cup so I don't wee all over my hand then transfer it to the sample bottle. Unfotunately somehow this morning I managed to kick it over and it went all over the bathroom carpet - so at 6.30ish this morning I was mopping up wee!! Haven't told DH yet as feel a bit stupid. Worse still cause I had to clean up sick Tues morning - wonder what the third thing will be????

    Anyway Jr is okay heard the heartbeat and is laying head down kind of to the right of me (when I look down) back to front. Also got told that they wait 14 days after due date to induce when I had been thinking it was 10 (not sure why it makes a big difference to me but it does). So I could have three and a bit weeks to go!!!

    Met DH during his lunch break today as I was in the city getting a few bits - does anyone else's OH still walk at their normal pace and leave you puffing after them. I said to him I am almost 39 weeks pregnant I can't walk that speed! He slows down for a little bit then goes back to the faster walk!:mad:
    Tegan Lily arrived 4 November 2009 (3 days late)

    Floyd Peter arrived 9th July 2011 (1 day early) :D

    Not sure about your third thing Karen but I wouldn't suggest farting unless you are already sat on the loo :rotfl:

    I have the opposite problem normally with DH, he dawdles along like we have nowhere to be, even when we are late! I'm always telling him to hurry up. Suppose I'll be glad of it when I get slower!

    Lou, I'm seriously considering it! I'm thinking if I'm going to leave after the baby comes anyway it doesn't really matter which 3 months I go back for.

    It will be so nice and relaxing at Christmas though not dreading going back to work, even if it was only going to be for 2 weeks.

    So off he went to work without even offering to make me a drink, no txt or call all morning to see how i am.
    I was so ill i rang the MW and Docs as i was being sick, crying which i always do after i am sick, had a temp, sweating, sneezing and coughing, I was a bit annoyed with the MW, it is just who ever is on call and they only there 9-10 I don't have a number for my actual MW it's a team base number only. All she said was keep fluid up and go to bed. She didn't ask my name or if i had felt the baby move or anything. ( I have BTW)
    So i have just woke up and feel a bit better now all that is off my chest. Going to have a cuppa now.
    .

    Aw hun - that midwife sounds like the one i spoke to - just seemed to want to get me off the phone...told be to go to bed and wait for a miscarriage:eek:

    If you feel that bad at any time try calling your GP instead - mine seems nicer and more understanding. The woman i spoke to on NHS direct last night was really lovely - she told me generally GP's were the best ones to go to (i don't know if she should have said that but she was right in my case :rolleyes:).

    I hope you feel better soon hun - Have you tried a serious dose of orange juice, it usually makes me feel a little bit better when i get cold/flu so might be worth a try.

    Kind of, really depends whether you think it's worth the extra £10 for 1 x colour gloss 3D scan enlargement in photomount and 2 extra sleeved colour gloss 3D scan prints. £10 is not a lot extra though on top of £189!

    So I'm seriously considering finishing work at Christmas instead of coming back for 2 weeks after. Dunno if that's just me being lazy though :confused:

    Oh, and gravy with mayo and vinegar?? Yuk!!

    Yeah thats the thing, is it worth an extra tenner, but then I think well what the hell we are paying £189 anyway lol cos I want the CD cos then we can print our own off as well?

    Nah I would if I was you, are you going back to work?

    I am going to leave here on the 15th Feb (due on the 8th March)

    LOL I loved chips, gravy, mayo and vinegar even before I was pregnant lol

    Lou - MMM that all sounds lush, thanks for your choice xxx

    Ive told OH the 2 options I will see what he says

    He tried to say we couldnt afford it and I just counteracted with if we can get KFC and McDonalds on CC then we can get scan on CC lol

    Awww Karen lol thats the kind of thing I would do lol, I did a sample yesterday and pee'd into a plastic jug then I put domestos in and hot water, and OH was likewhats in this jug and I was so embarrased to say what I dotn know why lol

    I thought it was 10 days as well but ywah apparantly its 14 lol so OH could share birthday with Elliot yet (20 March)

    LOL yes he does, he practially runs and I am like SLOW down lol

    Hiya, haven't managed to keep up as everytime I log in there's about 10 pages lol!

    Hope all are well. I'm 16 wks today! :D

    About the 4d scans I booked one about a month ago and had no choice of dates at all. Tried putting myself in with different due dates and everything but it was 19th dec or nothing at my nearest babybond so I booked it quick! This does mean I will only be 24 weeks when I go which is the earliest they recommend and earlier than I wanted but it seems they book up really quickly.
    :heart2: Mumma to DD 13yrs, DD 11yrs & DS 3 yrs. :heart2:
