    Supermaiden , I keep having "off" days and Im due in July aswell. Dont feel ill enough to stay in bed but dont feel 100%. My OH dropped a bomb shell at about 11 last night. He's taken on a job (he's self employed) 6 hours from home.So he will be staying up there for 4 weeks !!!!!! Not ideal when Im due in 5 weeks time. He's just waiting on the phone call to say when he can go,nightmare

    PP-I wish I could but he's getting good money which we just cant afford to turn down. On the plus side my mum came to some of my ante natal classes so I know she can step in at the last minute and would be happy to. Its just not how I thought it would be
    Thanks to MSE for making it possible for me save to buy my new flat , yay !!

  • Hi everyone, I had a little girl:j Olivia was born on Tues 24th May. For everyone worried about bump sizes no-one even noticed I was pregnant till I was over 34 weeks and Libby was 9lb 4 and 1/2 ozs:D Will do birth story at some point but was nice and quick - started timing contractions at midday she was born at 3.19pm.

    Oh Lablover I couldnt be doing with that! Husband was talking about taking a trip to London at some point (for college work stuff) and I had to say no because I might need him lol so Im hoping he doesnt need to go! I couldnt have him go off for 4 weeks but maybe your OH thinks its good to get that little extra money before baby comes. I would definitely see how much a flight would cost for him to get back in a hurry if needed. x

    :jCongratulations alwayspuzzled - can we have a picture please?

    Lablover what will your OH do if you go into labour whilst he is still working away? Will he be able to still take some time off?
