    :rotfl::rotfl: well im glad everyone had faith in me :rotfl::rotfl:

    I cant wait to be able to wear some different clothes again neither! Im so fed up of wearing the same ones all the time :o

    And just before i found out i was pregnant i managed to get a gorgeous pair of mckenzie combats really cheap and i have only been able to wear them once keep opening my wardrobe looking at my clothes sighing and closing it again :rotfl::rotfl:

    You will feel better, though ask me next week and i may be a bit more positive on that one :rotfl::rotfl: unless im STILL here :eek::o:rotfl:

    Ahh IHF thank you so much for the offer of the dress, really lovely of you :) Sadly, pink is really not my colour! Lovely bump :D Can't believe how big you were at 18 weeks!

    Baby size talk really frightens me :eek: I was 8.11, bro was 9.2 and little sis was 7 & a half 2 weeks early, eek!

    Wow 19 newborn sleepsuits Kindof?! Did you buy them all? We have about 20 0-3 months I think, which we figured was enough for 2 a day and then a few extra, based on carrying on doing the washing once a week, not sure if it'll work like that though!

    Hope you have a lovely day Three :) & be careful driving out there.

    Som your breakfast sounds gorgeous, making me hungry!

    PP nothing like a reality check is there :rotfl: OHs dad rang last night and was like 'imagine, you could be a mum next month', I had a total oh my god moment!

    I'm officially bored stiff - can't drive, snow is making the roads slippy so I daredn't even walk anywhere, no money to online shop & OH has gone to watch the football so can't take me anywhere. Bored bored bored! My friend was going to pop over but she's got a bad cold & doesn't want to pass it to me, so sat doing bog all.

    I woke up this morning wanting to ask you lovely ladies where I might find sleepsuits with foldover mitts? I'm sure I've heard them mentioned, and when I woke up today I was so cold I thought baby would freeze in March without them, looked through what we have a realised we have none :confused:

    Gymfiend - I've bought sleepsuits from mothercare and asda and matalan and they all have the foldover mits. They look a bit like cuffs on the sleepsuit that you turn over to cover their little fingers. I love them and won't buy any without now!

    On the topic of mat clothes am loving my mat yoga pants (£10 peacocks), if I didnt have 8 weeks left I'd think about buying more, wish I'd found them sooner as I wouldn't have bought the 3 pairs of jeans which I know dont find so comfy and generally only wear outdoors and change the minute I get in. Think I'm between sizes atm as 16 are too tight and 18 way too big, why dont they make 17! Probably sell all but 1 pair of the jeans after bubs arrives will learn my lesson next time around.

    Thanks Gill, I've tried Matalan & Asda and not any, will give Mothercare a go this week :)

    Thanks PP that's really kind of you :D Without meaning to be cheeky, any chance of seeing a pic? Only I'd hate for you to send it then not wear it IYKWIM?

    I officially have no clothes - I've got one pair of mat jeans that my mum bought me ages ago, and a few tops & one dress...even my tracky bottom house pants are getting tight :eek: I feel so fat it's unreal, I was looking in the mirror yesterday almost crying to OH that i had fat folds in my legs!!! I think mat jeans are pants - these ones are from Topshop & are so loose in the waist I almost flash my bum everytime I get up or down, but they're really tight in the bum/top of the leg :confused: Can't wait to get back into normal wear!
