    From the pregnancy weight gain estimator on the babycentre website:

    You will probably gain 1 st 11.0 lbs - 2 st 7 lbs during your pregnancy. :rotfl:

    Er... try doubling that!

    He he Twilight! I was thinking how much fun it would be to have a go on the slide actually while I was there! It may have brought on the labour!

    Dipsy - sounds like a lovely day out.

    I have been packing my hospital bag and now feel almost ready! Also ordered the Angelcare movement and sound monitor from Amazon - does anyone have any experience of this monitor?

    I have had this one for 5 of my children.. they are fantastic.. we have never had a false alarm and they are effective even if baby moves off the mat slightly and there is is an option for a click on each breath..

    Thank you it is nice to hear that I am not alone. I just can't wait to start shifting it!

    And I am impressed that you can remember the differences between yours, given the size of your clan - did you keep written records?!

    With this one (and the other 2) I lost around 3 1/2 stone in the first 12-16 weeks, then it gradually comes back on lol So even though I put it back on, i dont end my pregnancies weighing more than I started lol
    And I decided to go for the mamas and papas pramette, and because i'm a friend of her cousins, she's letting me have it for £85 instead of £95 :money: Just got to sell the other one now lol

    So then you must have lost weight due to giving birth, and then gained weight to get back to normal afterwards?
