    ohh not long :) i hope you will post a pic of the budle of joy for all to see :) please keep posting i always like to see how people manage having children :rotfl:

    good thanks hun, i finally have a plan and i can see me moving out before winter :T its great to have a target and even better to want it so much as i do :D
    Oh don't worry, I'll be so excited I'll be posting endless photos - in fact everyone will be well and truly fed up of hearing about the baby (if they aren't already :rolleyes:).

    I'll need help with my new soa by then too, as our finances will change quite a lot. :eek:

    Glad to hear it! :D

    I hope your cold clears up soon, there seem to have been some horrible ones around. My colleagues just laughed a few weeks ago when I said I couldn't hear anything but I really couldn't... not good in a customer service job :rotfl:

    Oh I don't care though, it's not as if there are a lot of bikini-wearing opportunities in my life lol! I'd rather have a baby than perfect skin and a perfect figure (not that I ever did have either of those). ;)

    After my c section the midwife explained that the location of the scar meant I'd still be able to wear a bikini. I just laughed at her optimism :D

    Hahaha, that made me laugh! :rotfl:

    My bikini wearing days ended looooooonnnnggg since. I don't think I'd want to now, even if I could - I'd feel naked :eek:

    I'll settle for getting back in my jeans and being able to see my toes again!

    Hi Snaggles, remember to post a thread just before you pop off to the hospital. Lenny
    I know, everyone else who has given birth recently has been really brave and managed to carry on posting between contractions. I'm scared I'll turn into a complete wuss and wont be able to do anything! I will definitely try and start a thread when anything happens though, and I've told hubby he will have to do it if I can't. :D

    I'm watching Home Birth Diaries on Discovery Home and Health, and terrifying myself with how painful it looks - I can't really remember the pain from last time :eek:

    Thanks, I'm still deaf this morning and my face aches, but I'm seeing the midwife tomorrow so will check with her if I need to see the doctor.

    I'm so glad I'm not at work, I wouldn't have been able to cope with it at all - don't know how you did it!!

    Hahaha, just had a text off a friend who lives quite a way away and I don't see that often - I sent her the photo of my bump that I posted yesterday (on previous page) - she's sent me a message saying 'You're not pregnant at all, you're just hiding a football up your top'.....and now I look at the photo, it does look a bit like that :rotfl:

    Feels a lot heavier than a football though!

    Snaggles,
    Once you go onto labour, you'll remember EVERYTHING!!! Trust me...

    I told my husband (once labour started with number 2) that I didn't want to do it anymore...lol

    That's a bit how I feel......I'm not sure if I really want to go through with it..... I'm a bit scared!

    A few people have told me they were more apprehensive with their second though, so maybe it's normal. I'm determined not to let fear get the better of me though, and try and enjoy the birth a bit more if possible this time round. (Not sure 'enjoy' is the right word, but you know what I mean :o)
