  • :jYay congrats Smartie :j

    Kindof, yeah girl hamsters STINK! our boy hamster is so tame and never smells but the girl is pungent (cage has a full clean every sat and her little sleeping house is cleaned out every couple of days)and she's not totally tame:(
    Rats are the opposite though -smell wise :cool:
    Hope Elliot has moved right down and all is well at MW's.

    Labour vibes to all who need them, LMF is this your last day before induction? Or maybe you've gone naturally overnight?:D

    on the lansinoh front I was once told by a breast feeding expert that came to work, if you need more than one tube your doing it wrong lol! Also she said it was the best too, altho have met people who are allergic to the lanalin in it!

    Smartie - woohoo for hitting that 12 week marker :D

    LMF - fingers crossed for MW today hun x

    bexta - if you say your going back then they are not allowed to replace you! I'm planning on going back and havent told them any more than that so they have to hold all my shifts open for me, am hoping this will give me better options/flexibility as I do 40hrs atm (sorry did!). Funny how many of our lil 17/18 year olds at work thought they were gonna get my job/shifts when I left, not even management can keep up with my job so how they think they can! Anyhoo it means they have to get peeps on overtime to replace me till I officially let them know my intentions.

    Choccy - had a rat for about 24hours once when I was 14, then my mum saw it and hit the roof lol! Shame cos he was a beauty, all grey. Ive wanted one since then and know loads of peeps who have them. But I know there no light undertaking as they need plenty of space and are real intelligent so a secure cage. I've had hampsters too, there so annoying and really quite boring tbh!

    Kindof - I'd love a kitten (well 2 actually) as well. I used to have three black and white cats who were my babies and were just the best ever, when my rents split neither had places they could keep them and it broke my heart and I had to give them away :( sadest day ever! Have always wanted to get more but OH is ok with cats but prefers dogs and we got a dog first, and he hates cats! so think its gonna be a while before we have them too. Prob end up with another dog first, we've talked about adopting a girl greyhound :D I'd have animals all over if we could afford em. Good luck with the rest of your list and the MW x

    pigpen - OH is keen to support my BFing for that reason, he was like OMG in our antenatal feeding class, besides he thinks the health benifits are fab too.

    1more - big boo at your OH, def make him cough up for the extra scan! Good luck at the con this after noon x

    Well mega achey today, not sure if I slept for or cos DTD last night and was so uncomfy! I suspect the latter. Friend just txt to say she wont be coming today now as her car wont start! Its fairly new too so she's really pee'd off..eek! need to go put some washing on now kindof has reminded me, oh the excitement.

    Btw do you think its rude if I leave a message on my FB status saying something along the lines of, if anyone asks me if baby is here yet I'm gonna delete you! LOL I'm already fed up of people saying still pg? Any signs? Grrr!!

    Must agree that rats are wonderful pets. I kept them up till last year for the past 7 years or so. The most I had at one time was 6 and they do take up a ton of room if you look after them properly but I wouldn't have any other 'small' animal than rats. They don't smell, are very clean and ever so friendly. :)

    ymake - aww you make me really want one, why dont you have them now? We know the cage we want when we get them, its a mahoosive thing from Pets at home, will cost more than the rats!

    Nikkit - eek no boiler still! At least the emersion heater/tank is getting done tho bet you cant wait.

    LMF - think anyone who txts will either be ignore or Ill say something sarky!

    Just found this web site, looks like a fair offer so am gonna give it a go when I have some cute pics of bubs http://www.hotprints.com/.

    Morning :)

    I got all the way to the end to catch up and my internet stopped working :(
    Its fine now though, but i had to get on my hands and knees and crawl into the small gap under the desk to reset it :o

    Had an ok nights sleep again last night, was up going to the toilet a bit, so i think baby is moved down more and onto my bladder. OH left for work at 8am this morning and i went back to sleep but kept waking up with an ultra dry mouth again.
    Its only happening in the mornings now, which is weird :confused:

    Smarties, congrats on 12 weeks!! :j:j When is your scan again?

    Kindof, OH thinks im nesting to because i have used the washing machine loads recently. Apparently i usually avoid it until im out of clothes.. :p:rotfl:
    I wanted a white kitchen to, but OH said no as it will be to dirty looking. I was like "What! White is a very clean colour! Its clinical!" and he said "Not when you have a baby.." :(

    He wants it yellow, but i despise the colour yellow. So at the moment its the same dirty creamy colour as when we moved in lol.
    I might just get some paint and paint it without him knowing hehe.

    Still nothing from me, i dont think im going to go before my EDD. I justreally dont want to be induced as that means going to hospital instead of the birthing centre.
    We tried the swallowing semen thing y'day (sorry if tmi! lol) but as soon as it was in my mouth i threw it up on the floor... :rotfl::rotfl::o

    So i had some pineapple instead :D

    eta: Som i intend to put something like that on my facebook as soon as people start asking. At the moment its only my mum texting everyday to see if im having pains lol. I might texther first later to say "No pains before you ask! :D"

    And also, rats are cool! I've always had small animals, mainly hamsters actually. I want some guinea pigs but OH is allergic. He's allergic to everything actually, i weaned him onto the kitten :rotfl:

    Oh god I am wiped, I have done two loads of washing, have one more to do but havent got radiator space, the sun is shining, but it isnt quite where it needs to be to hit my dryer.

    Went to Wilkinsons and bought a brush so I can dust the kitchen floor then mop it (with the mop I already have) bought two vases, cos I only have one which is pants, and mam suggested I might get flowers once beany is born lol so I guess I needed some more vases

    Argos have some I want as well but not in my town, they have them in my mam's so I need to get her to get them.

    So then I went to argos, I bought my gym ball to bounce on (mam really doesnt want me to have this) a pair of curtains, a 6ft long roller blind and a 4ft long roller blind

    When the girl handed me all the stuff I was liek !!!! how am I supposed to carry all this lol, I totally didnt think about carrying it all lol

    I managed to get it home, which is like a 15 min walk away but now my arms wont stop shaking lol

    I think I am going to have a nap, then off to MW at 3.30
