    Aww hugs PP and EA

    What strength are your co-codamol PP as the cramps come through my 8/500 and i was considering asking for stronger ones

    Anyone heard from GemmaE (on here or facebook?)

    I am still here - just crampy with high bp - getting a bit fed up of mw visiting - but we need them so i am grateful. Delighted with some lovely movements from baby orit today as they have been worrying about her heart rate / movements so it was great she stuck her bum out for the mw to feel - lol

    Hi JHA

    I'm still here, just been lurking a bit and busy nesting and stuff, OH is off work so making the most of him being around!

    PP, JHA, maybebaby and jonno- massive labour vibes!!

    Have just gutted my living room and kitchen, taken down all of the xmas decs, finished the nursery and cooked tea since coming back from Kiddicare this afternoon, first time I've done so much in ages, oh also did some washing this morning.

    Seems to be the season for tumble dryers going wrong, ours has stopped heating up too, we;ve got someone coming to have a look at ours in the morning, he is charging £10 to have a look at it and fix if it is simple and doesn't require parts, or £25 plus parts to fix it if its worth it. Thought £10 was worth spending if it means not needing a new washer dryer.

    Also, OH was sat on one of the dining table chairs yesterday doing some work and it broke so now we need a new set, but that depends on whetehr or not we need a new washer dryer.

    Have got quite swollen hands and feet at the moment, my arms and legs have been really achy too but BP is OK, guess I'm just being a bit of a hypochondriac (?SP) at the moment.

    Had a lot of BH this week, so wopefully this means I am getting prepared fro labour and the induction won't be quite as bad, having been reading up a lot on the internet about induction and am fairly happy this is the best thing to do. Had quite a lot of waters leaking the last few days, but hosp still happy to wait til Friday

    Hope everyone is good, am feeling very hot so might have to break into the Ben and Jerrys!

    Evening everyone :D

    My god its so cold!!! No snow here in Portsmouth, its just freezing!

    Went shopping today, me and OH originally went so he could get a new jacket.

    But instead we got loads of baby stuff in the sale in QS and Peacocks. Mainly 0-3 and 3-6m stuff. She has so much newborn, if she is a big baby she wont fit into it :rotfl:
    Best buy was a lovely pink dress, it looks a little old fashioned but i love it. Was £7 :D
    And i got 2 packs of 2X sleepsuits for £4 each :D

    OH didn't get a jacket, but got some trainers for £3! :money:

    I also bought a 6 pack of incense sticks for 99p :D

    Just had Fajitas for dinner and now im stuffed :)

    Does anyone else have this feeling? Its like the baby is pressing on my bladder, so when i've been to the toilet i still feel like i need to go. And if i try to go again nothing happens :confused::o
    I've spent the whole day feeling like i need a wee :rotfl:

    Gym & nikkit - fab bargains :D

    SJ - good tip on the asda shower curtains will look out for them when we next go. Oh and I really fancy Xmas cake now, OH doesnt like it so havent had any this year :(

    MrsBuble - well done on the caserole, sounds nice.

    Butterfly Lady - my 25 week appointment was pretty much as the others have said too, except I had mine with doc. At my 28 week appointment I asked about birth plans and was told we'd look at that after I had antenatal classes and therefore more info.

    Aless - yeay for library trip :D

    Lots and lots of labour vibes for PP, Maybe, Jha and Jonno xx

    Well after vegetating this morning we were very active this afternoon, put all the decs away and then blitzed the living room, binned loads of junk and now the living room looks much less cluttered! The comp desk was a nightmare so much dust so took the hoover to that. Quite pleased with ourselves now but have a really sore back now. Anyhoo treating my self to some choc now :D

    EA - I get that all the time, specially when she's having a good ol squirm.

    Ment to say on previous post too, we popped to Tesco and I picked up a fitted double waterproof sheet for £4 thought that wasn't a bad price.

    I dont think he'll mind being in 0-3m stuff lol.

    I have so much newborn stuff cause i didn't realise they were diff sizes lol!

    Well according to my baby book this week, it says over the next 9 week they will double in weight. So she was 2lbs 11oz at 27+5. So i think she'll be a biggin' haha
    Plus she's got quite tall thigh bones already!

    I know how you feel, DD was 4,13 DS was 8,13, better not go up by 4pounds again lol:eek::eek:

    Don't worry about baby stuff not fitting no matter what you have they will grow out of in no time anyway lol

    I never got a discussion about what i would like for my birth i did try but all i got was you can't got to the MW unit because of C/S and that was it.

    Gemma sorry about your drier, mine went a few months ago but i got a new heating element and replaced it myself, better than it was new if i do say so myself lol

    Talking of machines got my WM going it was one of the weights inside that had loosened so the safety was stopping it from doing a full spin, done a washing and all seems well so far. Just one thing bothering me how the hell did i end up with a man that can barely gloss lol

    Their was more i wanted to say but the fog has descended once again, can't wait to have bubs so i can have a conversation without a reminder of what i was talking about lol

    Vibes to all that are needing/wanting them.
