    What a shame the viewing wasn't more promising? Can't bear time wasters tho, so much preparation goes into getting the house ready for a viewing you at least want some hope of an offer!

    My DD was 8 days over 9lb 10oz. Pretty good labour!

    Don't know about everyone else but i've convinced myself you ARE having the baby tomorrow!

    You're right Michelle what is meant to be...from what I told OH he said it was very positive. It was but I don't think it'll go anywhere.

    Babyb - Your where we all were when we started on here. The makeup, the entertainment , ready meals etc you just learn to cut corners and not necessary because you have to financially, its because you WANT to. Like you do. I think thats pretty good going. You should be proud.:)
    ( the box thing is a bit lazy though 2 years down the line - get your ars8 in gear girl! :p:D )

    A 9lb 10oz girl Cath. :eek: Ouch! Are you and your OH tall? My DD was 14 days late and 6lb 8oz, I don't know why she was so tiny. Largest boy 8lb 8oz, I think this is going to be a big one!

    Will tonight be the night...? I really don't know but hoping so. We have our Mr A curry takeaway bought already and we have bought Rec 2 on blu ray as a treat as I loved the 1st one plus it's scary which may help things! :)

    OH has been doing so many extra hours recently (he doesnt get paid for them unfortunately) , I really feel like I've not seen him much. He's on 4 rest days now so having the baby tonight/this weekend would be perfect and seeing as he doesn't qualify for paternity leave due to it being a new job, he's taking 1 weeks a/leave when the time comes. So having the baby this weekend could give us upto 11 days together which would be wonderful.


    Rug does look better but could do with another iron :):p


    Other than that I'm all prepared !
    Have a good weekend all!

    Thanks Michelle. :)

    Well nothing happened but we had a really good day, going round a few shops and we had a McD's for dinner and then a curry. The film was good and it was just nice to be together.

    I feel rotten today though and have just dragged myself out of bed, not like me at all. I've got no energy and a slight headache and I'm bein very quiet...also not like me. Hopefully I feel beter later on when I come round.


    Have a good weekend :)
