    Sundays are definitely a survey day for me too!


    Have you begun thinking of any names for yr baby yet? Will you be finding out the baby's sex? Exciting times ahead ;)

    We get paid at funny times too but mortgage goes out on the 1st on my whole working month revolves around paying that! I remember when my monthly wage wasn't enough to pay the mortgage - very glad those days are behind us and we are now in the position to make OP's.

    DD wasa surprise,was convinced I was having a boy as DH only has brothers, male cousins and nephews - she was a lovely surprise, all 9lb 10.5oz of her!!! :eek:
    We will be having another surprise, i totally understand why people want to find out but it's not for me, i loved wondering too much and after the efforts of labour it's nice to have a little surprise at the end. Practically it makes no difference either, baby have it's own nursery and i like newborns to wear white babygros! I don't like them in outfits too young!

    DH has already thought of names, well the boys name from last time and one of our girl choice names from last time but i'm not sure i fancy them now. When we had DD and we named her i thought i had made a terrible mistake for days as it didn't suit her, now of course i can't imagine her being called anything else.

    Thanks babysteps, although it's upper and lower respiratory infections and laryngitis i have been fighting,i more than likely have the sickness and tiredness to come although i am taking vitamin b6 i didn't take last time which apparantly helps. Thanks re:the OP, can't wait for it to credit my mortgage!

    Thank you for all the congratulations - they are lovely posts.

    DD has decided she is going to call the baby 'baby stinky bum' lol!

    I know it's very early days but while I am still off work and feeling slightly better (just have a barking cough now) I am going to sort out all her old clothes and put all the 'white' stuff to one side. Need to ring a man about boarding the loft too so will do that later. Also need to ring the man from building regs which i keep putting off cos he is really mean!!!

    lol Grateful,am sure she will be the doting big sister once baby arrives.

    I have managed to do everything off my list today. Building regulations officer is calling in the morning, have left message with man re: the loft. DD clothes are also ready to go in loft along with lots of other stuff.

    Sold 3 small items on ebay this morning which should fetch me £10 profit after postage, have also filled a charity bag which is awaiting collection

    Phew - i think i am on the mend!!
