Stay at home mums getting organised in 2010

I think I may faint. OH is going through his wardrob and throwing stuff out!!!!! I've been nagging him to do this for years so he must be very bored. Although he's only doing it to make room for his AirGun stuff, but still - I'm speechless!

Wish the kids were, I have a headache...

Today's list is
- Tidy up after workmen
- Finish ThankYou cards
- Hoover my bedroom
- Take out rubbish
- Napisan Baby's poop clothes

Anyone got any advice about stained baby clothes? Napisan takes of the main stain but leave's like a backgound stain, if you get what I mean.

Oh, did my first online Asda shop. I wouldnt buy milk again though as it was to be used that day! So I only used half a bottle - apart from that though I thought it was great.

I always write a note specifying that the milk has to have at least three days left

My list:

Put baby swing and other stuff on the classified ads
Put clean laundry away
Put smelly towel and jeans in the machine
Tidy living room
Put the too-big clothes away

OMG OH is putting me to shame. I just went into the bedroom to inspect his progress, his wardrobe is organised by clothing type, even down to thickness of jumpers! He's thrown out tons of stuff and now all the drawers have folded clothes in! I'm shocked...
What will he want as a reward for this??

Good thing you checked! I thought about getting one of these, are you having a homebirth to or do you not get them in hospitals?

I have finished all the Flylady lists for the week so for once all the rooms in my house are tidy! Apart from the utility room but that's because it's really really cold! And full of bin bags because we've had no rubbish collection for a ages due to the snow...

Feeling very pleased with myself, at least now I won't be too embarassed by the state of my house to let the midwives in and there's space in our room to put a moses basket for the baby.

Nesting well and truly done!

Well nested ragz

Please pretend that everything on my list for today was actually on tomorrow's list. I'd tell you a great excuse if I had one, but I don't. I was lazy.

ragz, used one in early labour with DS found it helped as a good distraction ( I kept startin and stopping labour and was 1-2 cm for 2week! ) I am try it out tonight. I didn't think the hospital suplied them but areas are always different. Like the fact I have it at hand and DH can try it out.

Would love a homebirth but unable to due to high BMI, asthma, big baby and I lost a lot of blood last time:eek:. But saying that I went a look round a birthing centre ( but as i was consultant care wasn't able to use it ) it was nice but everyone who I know from parent craft who used it said they kicked you out quick and had little support with breastfeed. They all went onto bottles.

I change hospitals as we moved and i became ill. The hospital were good. It wasn't all ikea like the birthin centre and was a bit clinical but they were great. They dimmed the lights and kept me on deleivery longer than I was in labour after as I was ill. I had the best tea and toast ever! I was given a strip wash and didn't even know after. I later woke to find a cleaner mopping the floor, walls and cupboard from the loss. Bit off subject but pregnancy does that:rotfl::rotfl:

will do more 2mow from my list. so ragz how long left now. I've got under 5 weeks!!!:T:T and counting.
