    Awww Som' thanks hun....

    Landlord has said we can paint if we want but we're not gonna be here forever, so I figure painting baby's room is a waste of time and money, although we will do the kitchen and living room.... if DH got me some paint I could make a start but he wants to be here.... by which time I'll probs change my mind and sit on my backside and watch :)

    Im really excited about puppy. Its Mothers Day on the sunday (theyre coming up on the friday), we're gonna go out for lunch on the sunday, and do some shopping on the saturday and then on the monday its my birthday! So be a super super weekend :) I hope..... gotta be careful not to get too tired out.....

    CAFC - congratulations on the move your room looks fab! Glad its all working out well for you!

    I still dont have a cot bed everytime i look i cant choose which one to get.

    Someone was talking about ikea draws ect. I have the malm ones they were dead cheap and have really nice big draws im really please with them.

    Malm drawers we have 6 lots and are getting 3 sets in the pink 3-drawer (the only size they do in pink) and I want 2 more black/brown for the boys.. then we will all have matching drawers!

    I need something to put on the land for bedding and towels though which is proving a challenge nothing seems suitable!

    We are fairly sure the drawers they have on House are malm ones they are very very similar if not!

    Afternoon all,

    RE: Ikea Malm drawers, we have some for babies room too, also in our room, word of warning, be careful not to overstuff them! 2 of ours have totally fallen apart, my own fault though!!

    Nikkit, I'm sorry you're still here!

    Congrats & welcome to Bunny :D

    Smartie I hope you feel better soon. I swore I'd never moan about this pregnancy because I feel so lucky to be having this baby, but I'm starting to moan a little now at 38 weeks :o

    EA can't believe you turned down Nando's, rain and walking wouldn't stop me :rotfl: Lovely top :D

    Hope all's well with the 24 hour sample Som, x

    Nenero totally doesn't answer your Q, but when I was at school I was a year ahead (so the youngest by a mile! I'd turned 15 a month or so before GCSE's) and can't say it made any difference to me, so don't worry if baby is youngest :D

    Hope DHs interview goes well CAFC & yay for being moved in :j Lovely pics :)

    Sorry if I've missed anything, brain function is getting worse by the day :o Had a pants midwife app today, he's gone from being 2/5 engaged at 34 weeks, 4/5 at 36 weeks, to...popping out to 1/5 today :( Midwife said 'I'll be very shocked if you meet him before his due date', gutted! She was also trying to get me to see a physio as she thinks I have pubic dysfunction (?!), said no though, seems a waste of NHS time when I'm so near the end, I'll manage! So in a bid to cheer myself up, I've been to Yo Sushi and fed my face til I feel sick with a friend :rotfl:

    gym.. All but one of mine was not engaged until I'd been in labour for a good few hours.. then they engaged with a big clunk.. apart from DS2 who engaged at 16 weeks.. they insisted he would move back out and he never did.. he was born at 32 weeks instead.

    Thanks :D Yes you will have to come round again soon. Either that or I'll come to you again if it's easier, especially if you have SPD :( And yes that's my sis and her jumper is cool!

    Gym - if they can get you a physio appt soon I'd still go as it will help. My MW said with the spd babies can move in and out of the pelvis much easier as ther is alot more give there so wouldnt worry about how engaged you are.

    SJ - great detail in your BS, cant believe how well you remembered it all! I hope I have your good sense of humour throughout :D Well done you xx

    EA - yeay I did think I'd heard that before about the tinned stuff but I just came across it in the cupboard, I didnt buy especially lol.

    Well OH was only going to be an hour late and didnt get home till 2hrs later, I was so annoyed with his work! So when we got to the hospital the day assesment unit was closed and I was like Noooooo! Fortunatley they took the sample on the post natel ward :D Just have to wait till wed now for the results.
