Hi everyone! Been lurking on this thread for months now since I found out my fiancee was expecting our first child, so thought I should finally register and say thanks. It's been really useful and insightful and I've loved reading all your stories.

My OH is due at the start of July so less than 7 weeks to go! Exciting times ahead!!

Hey guys !!!Back from my holidays ... was the worst weekend ever. We went with another couple , and dont really get on with the Mrs of the other couple(shes fine in small doses ) Well she just played up to her true nature this weekend , and ruined the holiday for everyone. Then to top it all off, our car broke down on the way home ( our new car that hasnt been right since we got it ) So im in a courtesy car today , which due to pregnancy brain freaks me out everytime I get in it and I bunny hop and rev the engine like a learner driver , lol.

Apricot- Im starting to assemble the hospital bag , I got 2 night dresses from primark and one pair of bottoms that match the two tops. Have an old longline vest for if I go in the pool (midwife advised against bikini top)Have about 20 maternity pads and about 80 breast pads, got my dry shampoo so I can look fresh for photos. Bought some pants in a bigger size at primark and will buy some disposable nicks as well. Havent packed mini-me's bag yet. Itl start me off in tears ,lol. Im going to miss being pregnant so much. Ive enjoyed the whole process , lol
Lovely pics EA and I think teenie( my brain is mush) lol.Welcome to all the newbies xxxx

Becky -Happy due day Hope baby makes its debut for you soon
The amount you have already done today (and its not even midday) is impressive!!

I was awake before 6 & got up about 6.40. I've had plenty of time to get stuff done. I've just been outside & dug over some of the boarders & pulled up some weeds. This baby will come soon I tell you!

I'm looking forward to getting my new pushchair tomorrow :j Hubby quizzed me at the weekend about the pushchair we had bought 2nd hand. It's a bugaboo & it's fine apart from the hood is faded which is a pretty common fault. Anyway I got a fleece set off Ebay but I still wasn't happy with it. Bless my hubby he could tell I was gutted about it not being what I wanted & he's been out & ordered me an icandy from John Lewis :T He's collecting it tomorrow. Very excited!

He is lovely I'm sure the pushchair you have bought will be great! I've bought & sold second hand pushchairs & had no problems before

At 38 1/2 weeks I'm still waiting for that burst of energy to get stuff done I keep planning to but .........:rotfl:

Well done on have such a lovely hubby - that nearly made me cry, my OH is such a horribile b*******d I think I might be a single mom of 4 not long after this babies born. At the mo I'm telling myself not to make hormonal decisions but life is sh*t.

Oh no I really feel for you. Such a hard decision to make but if he's that bad then don't punish yourself by staying with him. Is he dad to all 4 of your kids? I always think it must be really hard to make that decision especially when you have children. Do what's right for you though & sod him! xxx

No my 2 boys are to my ex and they have a good relationship with their dad, OH is dad to dd and this one and TBH I think this is where most of my problems stem from, I feel constantly split into pieces, been to relate did get better but now its as bad as before.
