    afternoon.....

    only just out of bed.

    Hope MGEB is enjoying mummy cuddles xx

    36 weeks today, ARGH! Now its all systems go for evicting this little blighter. I want my body back, had a little "pregnant moment" about it this morning....

    Kitkat- Quick note about talc, its recommended not for use for very small/new babies, can create chest issues apparently, like asthama.

    I really wanna go shopping but 1 dont have any money and 2 dont really need anything else and 3 probably couldnt manage it anyway LOL

    Fern - Thanks for tip about gym ball. I might use the arm of the sofa instead of bed, i just cant be bothered getting the ball up the stairs LOL

    I am fed up and sick of being fat and hormonal now....I think it is worse because I didn't exactly get time to get over the last one!

    xmas do you feel like this yet?

    I am paraniod about everything(esp dh cheating), I can't sleep, I am struggling to carry ds3 anymore, I am grumpy, I can't be bothered to tidy or cook.....I just feel awful, I keep bursting into tears.

    Sorry for the rant:(

    Thanks CAFC......

    Wow you haven't got long left now. I know what you mean about the shopping too.

    MIL bought some clothes for baby, pink dresses and outfits....they are cute but I told people not to buy girly stuff until baby is here because it could still be a boy, plus I am not buying anything girly until after the birth either and everyone is getting stuff first. Does that make sense or sound silly? Probably just another hormonal episode!

    Hugs redmel... I hope youre feeling better soon... evil hormones!

    Im with you on Project Eviction CAFCG! After Monday- last day before MAT leave- I will be:
    1. taking my RT supplements (cant be dealing with the tea! YUK!)
    2. Eating huge amounts of pineapple
    3. DTD with DH ALOT ... yet to inform him of this, poor man! :D
    4. Bouncing up and down on my gym ball (getting tomorrow)
    5. Cleaning the kitchen floor and hoovering all rooms on all fours... have left it especially this week! :)

    Do you ladies suggest anything else?!

    Oohh, has anyone else been getting clicky/loose joints. Noticed it more than usual this morning... Must be the hormones making everything soft.

    Hello Pigpen if youre lurking, hope youre ok.

    Good luck to MGEB and hope youve got your little one!

    Doesnt sound silly Redmel.. our LO hasnt really got a lot of clothes- theres only so much unisex stuff around, plus you dont know what size he/she will be! Just got lots of cream/white sleepsuits and a few unisex bits and bobs that were too cute to turn down. :D

    erm evening primrose oil????

    cant stomach pineapple, and doing the deed with DH is a no go as well, poor bloke, i just physically cannot face it....

    relaxation is supposed to be a key thing as baby wont come if the body is stressed, but then baby comes when baby is good and ready....

    i feel really rotten and in such a grouchy mood and Gordon is doing my nut in.....

    I've had a lot of clicking in my hips ever since i started getting larger, and now its starting in my lower back, its just gas in the joints, and when you move its the pressure on the gas that causes a clicking sound...

    RedMel - have you got anyone nearby who can come round to help you out a bit, like do some housework or entertain DS so you can have a long bath or something?

    Thanks Cafc for the info about talc, I didn't actually wana get any but my sis said it's needed. I've been told baby will have asthma :( I am sure I can give it to someone who uses it (does anyone use talc these days?!) lol.

    Well I've just got up! Well actually got up 7am to go to car boot sale and when I got back was nackered so slept! Only bought one little outfit, i won't say wot it is incase the 'anti character' group chase me out of here! Lol.

    I can symphaphise with u Cafc, I feel sick of pregnancy and I'm only 27 weeks! It's like the goldfish that was swimming in my belly at 12 weeks has grown into a kicking donkey that keeps doing summersaults and kicking the hell outa me!

    Redmel i am starting to feel it now too. I struggle with bubs especially with the leg pain that started a day or two ago and i have to ever so careful picking him up because that starts my back off. The house is a sty but thank fully that is mostly because we have been moving furniture and everything is upside down so it will get sorted just dont know when. The sleeping is starting to be a problem i wake up at about 1:30 cant get back so have to potter about for an hr then try again then im up at 6:30 with bubs and getting the kids ready for the school run which in it self is a nightmare. It does get me down as i know its just going to get worse from here on in god knows what state me and the house will be in by the end :-(

    I've always used talc on my newborns but then i dont just go plastering it on i put a tiny little bit on my hands then rub it in so it isnt spraying into the air but if there is asthma involved it probably best avoided. You used to be able to get liquid talc i think avent used to make it dont know if that would be any better for you :-)
