Just reading about this http://www.anthonynolan.org/What-you-can-do/Save-a-life/Donate-your-umbilical-cord/How-to-donate.aspx
I would definately do it if i was going to one of these hospitals wondered if you ladies would?

MV -Sounds yummy!!! I'm loving Saag Aloo at the moment :drool: comes in a nice big plastic tub and re-heats really well:D:D
I prefer the tomato based curries more but if I fancy something creamy I tend to go for a bog standard Chinese curry, can't stand Korma(its way too sweet & mild for me!) and not found a stronger curry thats as creamy....if you know of any pls let me know:D

What about a tikka masala? You can ask maybe to have it a bit more spicy, and it's more tomatoey than a korma.

I like a little spoonful of korma, but I'm with you on the too sweet thing.

I'm practically dribbling here! Thank god I'm leaving the office in 10 mins!

Tikka anything is just too sweet for me:o It tastes like someones poured half a bag of sugar into the curry to me!
May have to go on a spicy creamy curry search:rotfl:

Lol Suzy I wasn't at all offended!!! You lot have cheered me up although I have found at 38 weeks and 5 days I have no interest in inches of TVs or anykind!!

A weird thing is happening... I am having definate cramping pain in my belly and back... set off by something rather strange on the site you linked me to Fuzz... how very odd!! I am not getting too excited as its probably another false alarm!!

All this talk of curries, I cannot stand the sight/ taste or smell of any of them! Its a damn pain!!

Metranil_Vavin

I'll do some research for you too Fuzz..curry is a favourite subject of mine!

Have a nice weekend ladies..will pop on later, but to those disappearing off...ENJOY!

At the moment we're having a curry phase too...

I'd be quite happy though with the tikka sauce, the korma the rogan josh sauce, the nice tomato thingy with the potatoes, bombay potatoes and a huuge naan bread to dip in the sauces :rotfl:

No meat or rice, seem to eat hardly anything atm, but when I do it's the wrong stuff!

I've never had a saag aloo... I did eat tandoori chicken about 3 times a week towards the end last time... I like Bhunas... I do like passanda sometimes too, but we had one on holiday that was really quite bland so it's put me off a little... Do love a good keema naan too...

Just back from the midwife. At the last appointment I was measuring a bit above the middle line on the growth chart. Now I'm measuring quite a way above the top line. Just done a rough calculation and if her measurements are right Flump's looking like an 11 pounder!!! :eek::eek: I'm getting a bit worried now, especially since I won't be able to have an epidural. I can't squeeze out something that big!! Has anyone else measured big at this stage (28 weeks) but had the baby turn out not to be quite so big later on?

I was getting scanned and measured all the time with DD1 and they were worrying me telling me how gargantuan she was going to be... She was 8lb 15oz in the end which I don't think is too massive...

Last time around the midwife measured me wrong... Twice... She tried to tell me I'd grown 6cm in 2 weeks and then another 6cm 2 weeks later and insisted I went to the hospital to see a consultant... The consultant was lovely, and had a bit of common sense... I told her I didn't want a scan, she sent me off to enjoy the rest of my pregnancy... I didn't let the midwife do my fundal height after that... Unless it's done by the same person in the same position every time then it is inaccurate... I won't be getting it done at all this time!

MV, at 16 weeks they take the blood for the triple test if you're having it... They don't generally weigh you again until the end...

Xmas, and anyone else local with older children... Some of the parents thread are meeting up and going to the Think Tank in Birmingham next week (Thurs 12th) if you fancy it
