    Congratulations ML!!!! and Nicki should have her LO now which makes me 12th on the list :eek:

    Vicstar are you still lurking? How are you doing?

    Went to aqua natal tonight but it was cancelled :( at least I now have time to do some packing, going up to Preston tomorrow to see my sister and new niece Sophie :) so may not have time to post this weekend.

    Walked past a guy today and he said, 'too much baking powder' :mad: wanted to punch him but just kept walking.

    I think I'm feeling brave enough to be added to the list now - 6th May for me please.

    One of my staff members today came up to me, and I saw her size me up, then she put her hand on my tummy and asked was there something I wasnt telling them!!!

    I'm only 7 weeks + 4 so really not showing much, although my trousers are starting to feel a bit tight so was quite taken a back! (and a bit chuffed as well!!) I've only told me assistant manager so far (coz she's had to take a lot of the heavy work off me!!) so didnt know what to say....just managed an embarrassed laugh!

    Imagine how mortified I would have been if I was just getting fat lol

    I love the name Elsa too, totally stealing it :p lol :D

    Seriously though, I might put it in my list if ML doesn't mind!

    gill - i added u to the list, lol at your colleague.

    I was at a kids party tonight and one of the mums asked if i was preg, when i said yeah she said oh sorry i'm not the most observant!! I said i've got 11 weeks left and she said i wasn't very big!! Bit gutted if i just look fat cos i feel like you can't miss it!!

    Lol gill, not nearly as mortified as her if you had said 'no, just too many cakes'.

    Can't believe that we've got EDDs of may already. Where has this year gone, enjoy your pregnancies girls the time just flies by.

    That is, until you're sat here fat and 2 days late wondering how much bleeding longer it's going to be before you can meet them.

    awwwww harley! Labour dust for you!

    went to starbucks today with new mum friend. Both PG.

    We had: she: choc chunk shortbread, 1 biscuit

    I had very full egg mayo sarnie :)

    Trying to work out if I made healthyish choices today I had a look at starbucks website.

    Quiz: without looking, does anyone want to guess the calories in these 2 items?

    Prize: erm.... I'll have a think.....

    well, I think your sarnie and coffee was prob 700 cals and her shortbread and coffee was 600.

    I've never considered calories in food before (being a size 0 I think I would have been lynched if I had even mentioned them) but I know that starbucks is not the best place to go if you are watching what you eat/drink

    how did I do???

    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.
