    piggers please tell me I'm going to feel less tired and its not going to take 30 weeks??

    I found I was less tired from about 16 weeks.. I slept until then!
    pigpen i would go with the last suggestion - ie OH picking up Moomin and bringing her to you - and as valli said getting them to fit around you! If they are running that behind they either have to fit you in or you go do Moomins and go back - just keep telling them you have another appt. as for the older ones could Tabs Mum be at yours for them coming in or just after - just to be on the safe side? or asking DS or GF or DD1 to get there asap? I am sure you will work it out. as for the outfit - what size of top/vest thing and what colour size of trousers are you after? maybe some of us can help?

    I rang orthopaedics and they said I can go at the beginning of clinic (1:30) so we may be sorted for Moomins appt.

    DD1 will be home about 4 same as the others it was mainly DD's 3 and 5 I don't know what to do with.. they are 9 and 5.. I may put them in kids club.. it'll be £9 but they can stay there until 6 and it takes pressure off everyong and noone has to rush and get them.

    Kids all home, my peace has been shattered. :rotfl:
    20 books between them needed backed so that has been done or i'd forget. :o

    Time to get some dinner on...
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Something that looks nice, is easy to breastfeed in, is very cheap (or free) and I will be able to wear at some other occasion!!

    Poohbear - I hope your guy is more generous than ours. We are also remortgaging and the surveyor came out - we're are extending so obviously things aren't finished - and the report came back as 'works not finished....only worth X much in its present state'.....well, hello! we know it's not finished but it's not like we're trying to sell the place, just change mortgage company. So value means we haven't met the LTV we needed for another 5 year fix and are currently negotiating with Britannia as to what we do next!!!
