Really random Q, if baby could be born to any song, what would it be? Me & OH were discussing last night, I can't decide...I like loads of music but none seems quite appropriate for a birth
I think I'd like Regina Spektor on if I had a choice...NB: I'm aware it's not realistic that I'll care or that this will happen, I just like to think about it
My DD was born to daft punks one more time ironically. :beer: At the time I don't think I'd have wanted to do it one more time. :rotfl:What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine..0 -
1more?- good luck, all will be well I'm sure, I think everyone is a bit nervous just before. Enjoy seeing bubs on the screen
Kindof- you probably won't care about your hair at the time, you will just want to get home. The hospital wouldn't even let me have a shower or a bath as there weren't enough staff, and had a last minute epidural, which didn't work for labour but left me with numb legs afterwards! grrr! So I was just left all gunky until they finally let me home the next morning, it was gross- but it took my mind off being worried about my frizzy hair! ha ha. Also if everything goes smoothly then you might get a 6 hour discharge in which case your hair would prob still be wet and you can just straighten it when you get home!0 -
gym - I had a shower before going home, but only to hose myself off not to wash hair IYSWIM. I did take make-up and put a little on though. Kinda made me feel more human? But I was in less than 24hrs, so people staying overnight(s) might have different priorities. Finn's doing great, thanks!
Look forward to seeing all you March ladies soon on the Parent Thread.

Right I'd better get a move on, loads of eBay parcels to pack and midwife to get to!
I am sure she is thanksshe has diverticultis (totally not how you spell it lol) and I think last camera they found Polyps (I think thats what they are called lol, I suck dont I lol) so she has to have one every 5 years just to check on those

Am I weird? I dont want a 6 hour discharge lol, I dont want to stay there forever but I dont want to be in and out, a few of my friends have said to me to stay in one night, cos then you get the help with bathing and feeding and dressing baby and then you can come home and not feel all RAGH I dont know what to do lol

Does anyone know how easy prams/ etc can fit in the boot of a car? I am selling my car, due to it having too many faults and fixing them will cost too much. Been to look at at 2005 Astra, the boot seems suprisingly huge!Does anyone have an Astra, and if so, how does it size up with a pram? The previous owner had a baby in it when it was new, upto present day, so I am sure if they coped I could? I just don't fancy a massive car, I struggle to park my tiny car!!! :rotfl:0

Hello strangers....it's been a while! Just popping my head back in to say hi - i see so much has changed since i was last here around Xmas! I will go back and have a scan through but there is no way i'll properly catch up. Hope you are all well and baby beans are behaving themselves for you all!!! x x x xMummy of 3 lovely munchkins :smileyhea0

Ooo Kindof - it's crazy to see you are litterally due!!! :eek::eek::eek:
Don't worry those shocked faces are for me, lol, not to worry you haha! Just amazed at how fast time has flown!Mummy of 3 lovely munchkins :smileyhea0 -
Errr - if you do care about greasy hair (as i did, lol) just get some Batiste Dry Shampoo - it is a lifesaver i promise. I hate the hospital showers so dip and dip out as fast as poss, the dry shampoo will let you go a few more days hairwise and you be so grateful for it. Lol, i was introduced to it by a girl on my ward about a month ago becuase i was so consious i had greasy hair (i ended up in as emergancy via ambulance - trust it to be the morning i wanted to wash my hair/shave my legs, lol) .Mummy of 3 lovely munchkins :smileyhea0
