Wow have finally caught u

Twinkles...i think your midwife should have been in touch with you if she wasnt going to come....its just good manners

Somnium...congrats on starting your maternity leave. I hope you hear back about your parking ticket appeal and that its good news

CAFC...sorry to hear your toothache stil is causing you problems...i hope you get into a dentist soon. Massive cheers for you finding a house and one that you will be able to move into very soon :T:T Yay!

Chocckybikkie...Boo for OH bashing your car but at least it wasnt you. Although i hate it if we have an accident with the car its always better when my OH does it! I watched the "8 boys wanting a girl" programme and i thought it was awful when that woman was crying in front of her boys. I really think that she should be grateful to have 5 healthy boys.

KIndof....your prezzies were fab and they were all sooo cute

Durham girl....welcome and many congrats

Nikkit...I thought the Peter Andre interview was out of order. The questions that Kay Burley asked were awful. Poor man.

Redstar... Hope you and your daughter are doing ok after your accident

KT...great knitting skills...the teddy bear looks very happy in it Where abouts are you in the country? I was just wondering as you mentioned the Leicester Pumkin Patch. I live in Leicester.

SJ...great bump pics. It was me who mentioned washing pineapple before eating it as it stops the soreness. But its doesnt look like you need any more help. Massive labour vibes for you...good luck

Iheartfreebies...many congratualtions on the birth of Ellanor

Three2b...aiden is adorable

Thanks for your advice on bottles. I got a Tommee tippee closer to nature microwave steriliser off freecycle but it didnt come with any bottles. Think i will go for 4 bottles to begin with and as tesco have the small ones on offer might go and get them tomorrow (2) and see if there are any other offers on in a few weeks.

Well i have been feeling very sick over the past few days and its driving me mad. I know its a good sign but it really impacts on my motivation levels.

I went to the hypertension clinic on thursday for a review of my 24hr bp cuff and they decided to discharge me from the clinic for now. The dc i saw this time also had no idea why i had been referred for a kidney scan and has told me if i get an appointment to canx it.

Bump seems to be getting bigger...am 22wks today and the movements are definately getting more defined. Cant wait till OH gets to feel bump move

EA those substitutes are mental lol I was planning on going weekly shopping with elliot and the pram but I think it would take more than one jorney so may have to go twice a week

Aww Gill I didint see them, my friend called and got me a pack of fitted moses basket sheets from matalan so we are going to see if they fit, we went to mothercafe and got 2 cellular blankers and 2 packs of 2 flat sheets for the cotbed

Twinkles....labour vibes as requested.

Joleen...good luck with the scan and hosp appoint tomorrow

Hi all, I'm usually on the less than 12 weeks thread as only 6+1 so not counting any chickens yet, but as that thread is a bit slow at the moment I was browsing on here...

musogirl - I spotted this online yesterday, I don't know how accurate it is but it might help!

Re online shopping substitutions, the weirdest one I had was I had ordered a tin of chick peas and they substituted a tin of spicy mackrel, the other was they put in an aubergine instead of a courgette (not much good for a stirfry!)

Scan and consultant at 1:15pm tomorrow, happy that we are gonna see baby again. I don't think they have got dates wrong, but we will find out tomorrow. At my 25 wk appointment i was measuring 26, then at 28 wk apointment i was measuring 30. I told hubby we are gonna have a huge:eek: baby! Midwife reckons at least over 9lb:eek:! Sooo glad we are having a c-section. 8 weeks 2 days until baby is here!

Jolene

Labour vibes for you to twinkles But could i have some back as of next sunday? I will be full term then. I cant believe it, its gone so quickly!

Currently watching Made Of Honour, Mmmm Patrick Dempsey

KT1985

I am under the Royal, didn't seem too much difference between there and the General- you?

A cuppa would be great... so long as I could also have cake

Somnium

Kindof - I would phone MW or labour ward if your waters go as that was what we were advised Oh and wear what you feel comfy in for birth. Love the meal plan. I buy 7 days worth of food but dont plan what nights we are eating stuff usually go by what has shortest exp date or what we fancy lol.

Muso - sounds like a tiring day! No advice on amounts of clothing we ended up with more than planned cos got given so much, suppose it comes down to how often you'll do washing and/or baby messes thier clothes. Oh and if you prefer outfits or will keep bubba mainly in sleepsuits/vests. Id say at least 8 changes if I were starting from scratch. Is wagmamas noodles? if so would love to try some time if I can get someone other than OH to go with me.

EA - thats some naughty substitutes, I ticked the box saying I didnt want any so will see what happens when I get my first online order on Tuesday.

Maureen - maybe your pct changed their citeria since your last bubs or maybe its cos your older, I know our at risk is 35yrs + so you get extra scans etc.

Jolene - hope the scan goes ok and bubs is all fine, could be an error by midwife or just an anomly! AT 34 weeks was measuring 36 and at 36 weeks still measuring 36!!! I think its cos different MWs and docs have there own way of measuring, there is after all some guestimation involved when it comes to the location of the top and bottom of your uterus!

Convent girl - dont get to many bottles to start a) because you need to get into a routine and b) bubs may get on with a certain brand of bottle and you may have to change! I have atm 4 avent bottles that came free with my breast bump and 2 TT that came with my steriliser, also got 3 cute Mam ones for next to nothing in the sale. I wont need that many but dont want to get rid incase baby is fussy.

fernliee - will try remember that tip for next annoying call lol.

Went to In laws and took them some cookies so just cooked off the last of the dough mix, OH said can I make some for him for when Im in labour at hospital lol.
