    PP just been back over the thread and read up whats been happening to you. I am so sorry hun. I can sympathise as I am sat here with 7 wk old baby no 4. Maternity services are rubbish now. Things were much better when I had my first in 98' so much for investment in the nhs lol.

    I felt horrid at the end of the pregnancy and could barely walk (no chance of physio here either-midwife said baby will be here by the time you got a referral). I was shuffling around like I was 100. ~You sit there dying to get on with it, but carping it cos of the dreaded labour pains.

    Hope things get moving soon hun, I feel a million times better now, in fact within a week of giving birth I started to feel human again, so try to focus on the fact its nearly over.

    good luck

  • Well in my HHC I went to the shop!!!!!!!!!!! First time in about 18months or more. So no cleaning done but I'm well pleased with myself. I'm just decluttering a cuppa and then I'll go for a proper HHC at 11.30 if anyone wants to join in.

    Morning All: wave:

    Am in this week again, thanks to all at Flylady Central for the lists and keeping the thread running J

    Pigpen - I know you don’t like hugs but I just want to let you know that I am thinking of you and you know everyone on here cares about you a LOT, you should think about taking up some of the offers of help, I would help out with children if I were closer. I cannot believe the way your hospital is treating you and hope squeak makes an appearance soon and your infection clears up. Sounds gross but natural yoghurt on the thrush, I suffer from it now and again and it drives you mad!!! My best friends cousin was bleeding and in labour last week, 2 days overdue, she went to hospital and they stopped her labour as she was only 2cm dilated??? What is the world coming to (she had a healthy girl 2 days later)

    Soappie – Please pass on my love to Toots next time you are in contact.

    I was in bed most of the day yesterday, Farmer Giles go the better of me and I was awake watching tv since 2.30am, they knock me for six when they pop out, took painkillers as soon as I got up this morning and put cream on after my shower. (Sorry if TMI)

    We leave on Saturday for a week away in the caravan so house has to be spick and span before I go, my bedroom is the tidiest so that at least shouldn’t take long this week. I ma going to do the lists on the day they are supposed to be done this week so I can come back to a nice tidy house J

    Special love and hugs as always to Lady-L, Toots & Diva

    Boys gone so made a start, FF cleaned out and reorganised ready for shopping. DW been on and needs empty/refill. WM filled and on. Big pile of laundry sorted. So I'm getting there but have stopped for coffee. Must message support worker to confirm pick up times as we had to leg it due to busy body traffic wardens!
