Mrsspendalot...

I think dilute dettol will be fine. I also love the smell of cleaning products! Good job really :rotfl:

Thanks MrsS, I wouldn't mind so much but they pay at different times of the month every single month. Its just a nightmare for financial planning. I really wish we could do without XH's contribution but life just doesn't work that way

Hope midwife goes ok for you Becky

Yep, me too .... quite sad really, but I do love buying cleaning products. I blame my mother - she is a bit OCD about cleaning and I seem to have inherited the gene. I'm struggling at the moment because I actually can't clean like normal because of the SPD. It's driving me mad!

Hope you get your payment through soon - makes you wonder why they had to be so awkward in the first place that the CSA became necessary, doesn't it?!

Sorry you are having such a rubbish time with the CSA Winnie......I know it won't help you any but it may make you chuckle for a minute. I used to work with a girl who was pursued relentlessly for 18 months by them to contribute to her Childs upkeep to the point where they sent a deputation to her home from their compliance team....as luck would have it she was off work that day and at home with her son decorating his bedroom as he had outgrown Bob the Builder and that was the previous theme in his bedroom....it took her a long time including calls to his nursery and gp to convince them that he really did live there with her. :rotfl:

Clarieloo don't worry about your boss your MW apt is far more important and you have legal rights protecting your right to attend whether it suits him or not.

Good to hear you have reached viability Twilight. . I have been permanently exhausted during this pregnancy too which is very odd for me as I am far more prone to bouts of insomnia.

MrsS glad to hear that you had a marginally better night last night. Dettol sounds great for cleaning the cot with.

Becky can you arrange a night out somewhere you all like for tomorrow and put effort into choosing outfits etc?.......that way you will be guaranteed to never actually get there and will probably end up on the labour ward instead!

Becky, I 2nd koalamummy's suggestion. If all else fails at least you'll have a nice trip out.

Good old s0d's law. Worked for me when trying to conceive. That month I was crazy busy at work doing 50-70 hours a week and I knew it wouldn't be great timing to be pregnant for the summer months and due late august/early September (because of other work commitments), plus I had an all inclusive holiday booked for early 2011 and had paid deposit for another trip in august. I even said to OH "you know, I wonder if we should skip trying this month" but decided not to put things on hold as the odds weren't that great anyway. And here I am :rotfl:

Tried the above already...I got all dressed up yesterday just for the sake of it. Went out for a curry the other night with hubby as thought it might help get things moving but no. Still waiting!

I've had to come in for a sit down. I decided to do some more in the garden...managed an hour then decided enough was enough. Hubby has told me to put my feet up & relax as baby will prob decide to come then I'm just generally feeling fed up with not being able to bend down or get comfortable. I think this is part of the reason why I keep myself busy. It keeps my mind off how thrilled I'm going to be at not being pregnant any more! Lol! Don't get me wrong I love feeling baby wriggle etc but after 9 months I've most def had enough. I'm just looking forward to mummy cuddles with my 2nd baby

Something similar happened with us Twilight. . I had finally given in and agreed that the little one would be old enough to go on a long haul flight this year and gave in to my older boys and husbands wishes for another holiday to the theme parks in Florida......we had to cancel just over a week later as we had a positive test result and our guessed due date was right in the middle of the booked holiday! . Daft thing is we hadn't even been actively trying that Month as OH was only just back in the country after months of being away and I had been badly stressed with selling our last house buying our new one finding somewhere for the children and me to actually live as there was a gap in dates and sorting out registration. For a new school as well as new childcare! :cool::rotfl::cool:

mrsspendalot

Cot has been wiped down with dettol ..... and now I hurt :mad::mad::mad:

I think I may regret doing that later

On the plus side, it's clean and I got to sniff dettol :rotfl::rotfl:

koalamummy

You need to sit down and take it easy for the rest of the day now.

Pigpen - is bubs definitely not moving or is it hiding where you're numb again? Maybe worth a call and a hissy fit to the hospital and bring the scan forward?

No idea.. if it is moving I can't feel it and if it isn't I wouldn't feel it anyway! Either way.. I am not ringing hospital idiots.. I can't be bothered with their atttiudes or stupidity. I am quite happy to wait 3 more weeks for my scan... ...

I have vacuumed and done my back in some more.. and I MUST clean out the hoppeties later cos they honk!
