    How come you hate the clothes you bought? Next are good as if you buy online you can return anything for free that doesn't fit you/you don't like. Their courier picks up from your house for free.

    I have got a couple of maternity tops from Peacocks as well, which are nice.

    Mmm just having a ham and cucumber sandwich - go healthy me! :rotfl:

    I haven't found much I do like.. I live in jeans and vest tops normally.. and the maternity jeans aren't comfy.. and I refuse to have those big ugly stretchy over bump thing that boil you to death and the under bump ones make you look flabby.. I don't feel comfy wearing them. And I hate the vest tops wih double fabric on the boobs.. I wear a bra so I don't get saggy jooblies I do not want an extra layer on my chest.. and the elastic makes me sore.
    dresses don't fit me.. ever.. maternity or not. leggings are too high at the back and too low on the front.. I tried wearing them back to front but that didn't work either.

    I don't wear navy, or frills or things with sleeves..

    Dungarees...that's what I need! PMSL!!! Though I'd be happy enough to wear nothing but pjs for the duration!

    Wow, "all your pregnancies"...how many have you had? sounds like lots!

    I'm just laughing to myself at all the ladies saying they are selling their mat clothes as they aren't having anymore, I bet pigpen has said that once or twice :rotfl:.

    after DD2, DS3, DD3 and DD5 ... oops??? lol

    Gorgeous bubba, Fairy ;)
  • I'm still only 1/2 way through my hospital bag :o, just adding a few bits now, snacks and drinks - do I bother with them? I didn't with DD, I had a very short labour but a few days stay, can't remember though whether I could have done with some.

    Oh I love my maternity jeans, they are the most comfortable things ever. I live in my leggings too. firstly normal ones then as time has gone on maternity ones.

    I have found thought that I had to try loads and loads of jeans on before I found a pair that were comfy and there no one as odd shaped as me lol.

    I took juice.. but made sure OH had undone it for me before he left as I couldn't have broken the seal .. feeble weeble!

    I didn't bother with snacks I was 2 minutes from the cafe area and have legs.. I was home within 24 hours though..

    I might just stop getting dressed and live in my dressing gown for comfort! My maternity jeans are starting to get tight but I'm not buying anything else!

    Hiya! Great pics Fairy and what a super cute baby you have! Congrats!

    Wendz, I was surprised that the MW was so certain but we'll hopefully know for sure at the scan. Saw mil today and she's been busy buying bits. It's all so sweet and nice she's excited.

    Ea sorry to hear the mw made you cry, I hope you're ok now.
  • Hello! Just wanted to pop by & thank you for all the messages. As you know Alfred decided to make a rather dramatic early appearance to the world. I wont post my birth story, I don't want to upset anyone. He is tiny & perfect but has quite a battle ahead. His first brain scan was normal & he is able to breath on his own but does need help at times as well as he gets tired. At the moment they are trying some medication to help close a duct in his heart, if it doesn't work it will require surgery at a different hospital. My recovery is going to take a while as the c/section didn't quite go to plan. Alfred is a 3 hour round trip away, it was heartbreaking leaving him yesterday but so good to see DS1 after 2 weeks in hospital. Needless to say we will be visiting Alfred every day so my time & energy will be sapped with that so I wont be on here much. I hope you are all keeping well x
