Afternoon all,
Yorky I think I know the book you're talking about - they had them at the hospital when we were there for our 20 week scan, I took one& the health visitor brought round the next one that follows from birth to 5 the other day, so yeah, I think you can take them!
Som how was the MW? Is little lady any further engaged? Fab news on extra £s too, always a bonus!
Lots of labour vibes EA! How exciting
Congrats Nikkit he's lovely & a lovely name too
Baby clothes have been washed in the same stuff we use for ourselves here, if he reacts to it then I guess I'll buy non bio then! Seems too much of a faff - I'd be doing so many seperate loads if I tried to use one for him and one for us.
BSM brill that the HIPG went in so quickly
Not much going on here, miserable weather so have been in all dayWatched a couple of films and had a bath, put a hair mask in, face mask on and am gonna sort out my nails. Started to get texts asking if baby is here yet already - yes, he's here, I'm just not bothering to tell anyone. Dread to think what it'll be like if I go overdue!
Made a few plans to keep me sane for the next week or so, is it horrid to hope I'll have to cancel them all?Baby Boy arrived March 25th 2010 - 17 days late & 8lb 10oz :j0 -
Nikkit he is soooo cute well done :j:j:j

Am I bad mummy to be for not intending to use those sleeping bag thingies??
Even if you're going to BF if you sign up to some of the formula milk companies you get freebies (SMA muslin cloth for example)
I'm feeling poo and I'm in a bad mood:(
Come on then... who's next on popping out their bean???:D
LMF, Guniea or Pokey should be popping their babies out next bless them lol
No your not a bad mummy, we got given some sleeping bags then I liked te sound of it so we got a couple more
Som - I agree, I love the changing mat in the sinnsburys bagI have two, the washing is going ok, Ive done two loads of white vests/bodysuits that are being dried as we speak, its peeing down here so I only have my radiators, I will do a colour wash once Ive ironed all the stuff I washed today, I have his bed sheets to iron as well
Yeah Mamas and Papas send you a £5 voucher if you order their catalgoue
Som did you discuss with the MW if you are still here next week (not that I hope you are lol) or do they wait till we hit 40 weeks then decide what to do with us?

Pains have subsided for a bit now but i can still feel the pressure
Having small pains in my back to, but i've always had back pain so i dont know the difference lol
MW said they might subside and come back within a few hours, so heres hoping
At first i thought i had a stitch, it was in my side almost and then the pain went round to the front. I dont really know what period pain feels like, i never had it lol.
Im measuring 37cm now, and baby is more engaged but not to sure how many 5ths as MW said she doesn't do it by 5thsbut she said her head is further in and you cant move it about like last time.
But i have another appointment next week if i dont give birth by then
Think i might rub more of my oils in and eat my other pinapple later0 -
I don't think anyone saw my post a couple million pages back
