    Thanks Charlie, it's just me doing my usual panicking bit when it comes to money, we don't get that much a month anyway so they might just cut back next years. When DH's job was decreased in his old job by a good £2.2K it didn't acutally make any difference to award. Will just have to wait and see.

    RE dress, what about a maxi dress? I think they look really beautiful and there would be plenty space for bump and they look better with flatties so you wouldn't have to worry about uncomfortable heels, then you could wear it in the warmer weather?

    ema - what a bargain dress, especially from Coast.

    vroom - not you're not over-reacting. I would be the same.

    Just got back from my 38 week appointment. All OK. Only 2-3/5ths engaged. Last time I was 2/5ths. So not much change. So Sharkeys beating me. She commented on how chilled I seem to be about the whole thing and so I got to talk about how I'm not really feeling really chilled anymore. She's explained a bit more about what early labour might feel like and circled the number I should phone and when I should phone so I feel a bit better now about that.

    She said the pain I had last night was probably a stretching or the baby moved onto a nerve or something. So all normal. As was the vomiting last week as it was a one off. So all good to go. :s

    @annibee - ((hugs)) Good on you for trying to look at the positives :) We should all take a leaf out of your book.

    It's just occurred to me that my next midwife appointment is my due date

    Good news Giz just a waiting game now hun.

    ((hugs)) annibee, you can off load here hun, you mentioned yesterday about not wanting to bother OH with things but it's not good to keep things bottled up (I really should listen to my own advise at times :o).
    Yeah on getting car sold and having chocolate. I have just had a Lidls snicker type bar, it was soooo nice but I have horrendous heartburn now LOL!

    DH done that twice to me, and he has never done it again. The first time he didn't come home 'til 3am when he was out for a couple at 8pm I was in floods of tears thinking exactly the same as you! I KNOW he would never cheat on me but at that time in the morning your emotions are all over the place as it is! grrrrr men..(it's ok for me to do it though :D:p)

    Mine has not long announced that he's going to his mates birthday do which is a club and hotel stay over in March. When i'll be 34 ish weeks gone. I was a bit :eek: to start off with and now i'm like 'meh, whatever' lol. He's off to some sunny part of the world next month too for a week for work. That'll be a long week. Will miss him and worry about him working around the clock. But I know it's best that he does it then rather than later on. :(

    Course... hormones and the way they are there is no logic to your thoughts. You sit there KNOWING they won't cheat on you yet it just springs into your mind just to make you feel like carp lol. Mine is very patient with me. Well he has to be! :D But I have been a MARE in this department. :(

    Sorry off topic but I just got my gas and electric bills...I've been paying direct debit £30 and £35 a month and they are going to increase my gas to £35 and electric to £46. That's nearly £200 more for a year! Have prices really gone up that much? I need to check last years units and see how many I used then. Suppose I have all the time in the world to have a good look into this and maybe switch.

    *delurks*

    :eek: I'm with British Gas for both of mine and pay £14 electric and £35 gas and I'm £2 in credit for electric and £187 in credit for my gas!! Have you tried to see if they are cheaper?

    *relurks*
