Fuzz... I'm stumped... !!!!!! are top to tail squares?!? Lol. I know what muslins are, got a few now but no idea about others?!? Maybe they're smaller as standard muslins can be massive, maybe a bit big for top to tail? Do mothercare do measurements? Sorry can't
check link am on iPod and it doesn't like that link!

I think they are small too. Must be at £6.99 for 50:

Look at the size in the other pictures compared to the other bits.

BB - please don't be worried. i didn't mean to scare anyone. This is just my own personal experience. I thought it was sciatica as I have had it in the past but the pain wasn't shooting down my leg. I ignored it until I got to about 27 weeks (am 33 now) when it was getting hard to sleep cos every time I moved it hurt. I would mention it to the doctor or midwife if the pain is really bad. The other reason would be if it is the ligaments SPD or similar then it can have an impact on delivery positions etc - depends on how far apart you can move your knees. I was advised to consider all fours or a water birth and to make sure the midwife knew so they could be careful when helping me.

I'm sorry if I worried anyone!

I'm sure I'm fine. It is a shooting pain but I think it's just another of the joys of being pregnant. I'll try bouncing on my ball every night and see if that helps - don't worry - you didn't really worry me.

KK - it's fine really it was just a bit strange having OH fiddle with my bits like that when it wasn't part of anything else :rotfl:He was very good about it but did complain his arms were aching :mad: If it helps with the birth I'm willing to try anything!

Fuzz do you have a local mothercare you could pop into? Or is there a phone number you could call? Although tbh most customer service assistants probably wouldn't have a clue! Alternatively you could order some, and return them if no good but obviously this may not be worth it if there's p&p to pay for delivery and returns. I would probably play it safe with tescos. I ordered some from boots in the end, I was ordering wipes that were on offer so collected them from my local store the other week. Think the muslins were dearer but the wipes were v cheap and there was no p&p to pay

Forums close at 3pm for maintenance....:eek::eek::eek: what will I do with myself?!? Does this mean I actually have to get off my a$$ and get the Hoover out?!? :eek:

Only if you think it will induce contractions..if not don't bother! bounce on your ball instead:p:D

I've bounced on the 'damn ball' for the past 4 weeks like a mad child. We're currently not on speaking terms as it DOES NOTHING lol. Maybe hoovering will cheer me up, there's lots of fluff on the black rug that is annoying me, where does it come from?! I blame the ball! Lol. OH is playing on playstation but I don't want to moan at him as he's been really good to me and I've been so miserable!

One whole hour though without forums!!!!!
