    Laura from booking in to 16 week appointment I managed to lose nearly 6lbs :s
    Have had to go down in jeans - which I know is cause maternity clothes are bigger but well I felt good about my self for a little bit.

    Ginvst - Im debating sticking them on facebook as my status or as a note - as we are facebook friends and I know she constantly stalks me on there lol. Shes let slip to oh on the phone stuff ive posted or commented on.

    Lol I might bung a copy in her Birthday card too just for good measure. Seriously hope she doesnt touch me would be weird. Same with his sister she best not or people might be getting punched :S
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
    I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together

    Lol!! :rotfl:I haven't resorted to physical violence yet, but oh so close!!

    Phunkles- just imagine my MIL is within walking distance!! I am so tempted to send her the guidance notes, but my OH would definitely not be impressed!!

    I was just thinking the same about putting it on the Facebook. I hope she doesn't decide to touch my belly, as I would hate that. I can barely stand the peck on the cheek that is common in Italy.

    I sent it to OH - just for good measure.

    I know my mum won't be there for baby's birth or soon after, as she is a teacher and it is exam season at that time back home. I think I will tell her to come first week in July, but I am not sure if I can survive with her being there for 2 weeks!

    And by no means I want MIL here for 2 weeks! Even 1 week sounds like a torture to me - andOH will be told he has to take time off for when she is here.

    I must be really lucky, i was sat with MIL reading these posts and she was agreeing with all of you!! also said something like "err, alizee, i hope you don't mind but i have no intention of rubbing your belly, i don't mind feeling a kick or something if you want me to but rubbing your belly! don't think so!"

    My car was in the garage this morning, so I've been working at home in my elasticated waist bottoms - oh, so comfy, but I just dread having to wear them outside, lol

    Hope I can stay in my jeans a bit longer, 13 weeks to go and I'm only going to drag myself into my office until xmas (if we don't get too much snow). Working from home with it all hanging out sounds like a good plan to me :)

    I know that feeling only too well. Think i was up about 6 times in the night amd just managed to nod off at 6am when my sons alarm went for school. I am currently at work doing a good impression of a zombie. Does this weeing actual get any better does anybody know?
    Apart from that all is well although ex OH is still being an utter kn0b but nothing new there.
    Hope everyone has a lovely day

    I'm 26 weeks now and I will say the weeing does not get better. It all depends on where baby is lying too though, so if he/she is moving about loads as they do at this stage, you may get a few days of relief at times. I try and go 3 or 4 times before bed, and it seems to be helping a bit. Limiting my liquids about an hour or 2 before bed helps too. I'm maybe only getting up 2 or 3 times in the night, compared to twice an hour in day time and my babys head is wedged into my bladder :eek:
