Think babies in football strips are so cute, however me and OH not much into football, so might get a roandom teams strtp for baby to wear.

does anyone else suffer from bad circulation, since being pregnant i keep waking up with pins and needles in my fingers? just wondering if its related cant find much in the book i got from midwife.

The computer is doing my head in, keeps eating my posts half way through :mad: Will try to recap:

DP hope you have a lovely week off - sure it'll be great especially seeing your parents :j

CAFC fairly sure 24 weeks is viable, so you can celebrate v soon :T

Nikkit I hope you're in Bedford in labour as I type

Courgette I'm in the moderation camp too, had a few drinks and plenty of things on the 'not approved' list whilst preg, figure that plenty of people don't ever know they're pregnant and are ok so the odd bit of what you fancy can't hurt Dying to have a proper drink though...we've got a babysitter lined up for my birthday a couple of weeks after he's due so provided he's not too late I'll be able to have a few then :j:j

Som - no not nursing bra's, I'm not 100% sure on breastfeeding yet so figured I might aswell wait and see on those. Went to George @ Asda & got a plain one for a bargain £4 to tide me over for now though, in a horrifying 36f :eek: We were joking about how massive it looked in the shop, I thought I could grow into it, turns out it only just fits now, eek :eek: Where are you off for dinner tonight? Hope you have a lovely evening, x Mentioned your baby girls name to OH as I was so taken with it, he really loved it too (gone on the mental list of potential names should we ever have number 2!!)

:j for scan date Smartie, it's not too long I never really bought maternity clothes so can't comment too much on what's best particularly under/over bump, but I have found long vests/jersey dresses a godsend, as they look & fit ok however big you are - ASOS is good for them.

I can sympathise with the wanting to do your house up Kindof - we had a backboiler, pink bathroom suite from the 60s and the original 60s kitchen when we moved into our house :eek: I love doing houses up though, we've gutted ours and done it totally, can't wait to do the next one. Hope the pizza making goes well, we used to make them with dad when we were kids, not done it for yeeeeears now though, might try it this week V impressed by your meal planning :T

Had a lovely day but now absolutely exhausted - had Nando's in the end, yum yum Picked up some photo frames for babies room and dropped off our pics to be scanned and copied, got baby a dog print sleepsuit from Next (poor thing!), some socks & a giraffe toy His nursery is starting to look finished now which is lovely :T Now, debating on the subject of tea - thai curry or pizza, dunno what to have!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/wales/8511586.stm
its a great story so uncanny
talking of uncanny my nan is 80 she came to my house yesterday with a bread and butter pudding for me mmmmm and was upset that she had lost her mothers ring that she always wears well later on i cut into the cake and on the end of the knife was my great nans ring :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:she was so pleased and i still ate the bread and butter pudding

Awww thats class, I am pleased you found your nan's ring!!!!

Elaine - get him a Newcastle United one lol we need all the help we can get lol, I personally havent suffered from pins and needles

Gymfiend - I havent been uber good, I was on holoday when I found out I was pregnant (took tests with me) and my brother and his wife were having a joint stag and hen night out in Ayia Napa (best venue ever) and I had a tlp the morning of the stag but I got a little bit drunk lol, vodka jelly shots etc, thats the only time I drank though

I got a bra from Asda as well lol I had to get a 40DD and its getting too tight lol

Thanks gymfiend we managed to stick to the meal plan this week barr one day when I went to the hosp we ended up with Mcdonalds for lunch and then had no tea

Aww I am jelous of your house doing up lol I just wish we knew people who could help lol instead of having to pay a fortune for people to come and fit stuff

FIL is good to help but he takes SO LONG doing jobs that I would be an OAP before they were finisihed lol

The Pizza making seems to be going ok, we are letting the dough rise now and the tomoato stuff is reducing on the hob now, we have taken photos

Ive never had a nandos which is weird cso I LOVE chicken!

Ohhhh I would go for Pizza lol

Lush bump pic EA, and I love the crib and the pictures

ok off to check on pizza

Evansangel

Oooh Nando's is sooo good and cheap!

Me and OH usually spend £20 for us both there
I cant handle spicy food though so i have lemon and herb flavouring

How did you make your pizza base?
Our kitchen is always cold so the whole rising thing in the warmth doesn't work as well for me lol.
Also we dont have a rolling pin, last time i used an oust can!

kindofagilr

MMMM I will deffo have to chck out Nandos sometimes

The recepie is http://cook.dannemann.org.uk/mains/pizza/

A the kitcvhen is warm once the oven is on lol

Does anyone have the recepoe for the homemade bread wher eyou dont use a bread maker

Evansangel

That looks easy enough for me
I suppose i could take the dough upstairs to rise lol.

I might do that next week!

We're going to Harvester for dinner tomorrow, bit gutted as i love IL's roast, but i'll get a roast at harvester instead

kindofagilr

Yeah thats what we thought so thought we would try it lol, the dough got a little sticky when OH was making it into a ball but apart from that it looks ok, we are just about to put it in the oven lol

Yeah take the dough upstairs lol

Whats Harvester? we are going to ILs for roast dinner, its not the best (I prefer my mam's lol) but its a free meal lol

Evansangel

I dont mind any roast dinner, as long as its home cooked and not by me

Although i do like mine to hehe.

Its a resturant/ pub/grill thing. It has an unlimited salad bar though

I got a two pack of nursing bras for £10 in Matalan today so might be worth getting measured somewhere then checking if Matalan have your size :money:, in case anyone's looking for them.
