    Morning,

    Well my laptop will not charge so am on OH's monster old one!!! Feel like I've been sleeping for england at the moment which is unusual for me. Have no motivation either, didn't manage to finish the kitchen yesterday, really should finish it today, have a cracking headache though. Am round my friends for a girly tea tonight, shes asked me to make cupcakes so i need to get ingredients and i want to go to hobby craft and get some wool. Am not having a lot of luck knitting, I've been trying to knit a hat but its the first time i have tried knit two purl two and I seem to keep adding stitches, I have started it about 7 times now grrrr!

    Well I'm hoping that some of the ebay stuff for the baby will come today, rather excited about it, goodness we have so much stuff! Cant wait for OH to come home so we can set the nursery up :)

    hey bella, sounds like youve had one hell of a day, in your words, take it easy! listen to your body, hun you've obviously done too much, put your feet up and you should be right as rain tomorrow.

    Well I made some cupcakes, they looked really good, if I do say so myself, I was rather pleased with them :)

    Am out all day tomorrow so wont get that much done in the house, but will do more on thursday. Went to hobby craft today and bought some lovely wool on offer and some beautiful buttons to make baby a jumper. Well when I actually manage to get the hang of my knitting!!

    Oh Bella hun, I'm so sorry you're feeling poorly, I hope the midwife can sort you out. I'm at that stage where I am starting to feel rather uncomfortable, driving is achey as the way I sit upright, the baby seems to dig up into my ribs, ouch, starting to feel a little tired now too.

    Sorry for not posting yesterday, I was out all day in my home town, went to visit mine and then OH's family then went to see my friend and her 6 week old baby, oh bless him, he is just so so cute, and i got to hold him and he fell asleep on me, *sigh* cant wait for november for mine, was a bit scary though, especially when he cried and I wasnt quite sure what to do with him and I thought, crikey when its my own I wont be able to give him back when he cries!

    Had a bit of a spendy day yesterday, went into the works and bought 6 books for a tenner, and they were all my favourite authors! so pleased about that, also went and bought some more wool, going to get cracking with knitting again, have realised what I was doing wrong, so hopefully I can actually get past the second row!!!

    Really should be spending the day ebaying but Im not sure what I want to do today, just feeling really chilled and relaxed. so I'm going to sit and enjoy my tea for now :)

    Morning!

    Glad you got the knitting sorted :) i've been given 2 blue knitted cardigans they are so sweet, wish I could knit might get some stuff and have a go, whats the worst that can happen lol

    Well been the midwife this morning everything is perfect, OH and DS came with me which was nice. Still not feeling great and was really sick when I got back, its all acid heartburn its horrible, had some soup and feel a bit better than I did. Had a chat with OH last night about my worries just general pregnancy worries ie its gonna hurt, what if we dont make it to hospital in time lol OH is quite laid back and just said he'll be with me and it will all be ok, I feel a bit better just talking to him :)

    OH and DS have gone fishing today:) DS was so excited, they have made me go to go outdoors 4 times in the last couple of days ha, but at least I get a bit of peace now and OH has said just to have a rest :)

    But I have emptied dishwasher and put some dirty stuff back in, put all baby's dark stuff in washing machine, its a lovely day here today so gonna get them pegged out, and just gonna wipe round kitchen, think that will be it for today.

    hey Bella glad everything is going well for you. I have felt rather sick today and get horrendous heart burn so i wonder if its the same for me? Well I went into the city today and bit the bullet and bought myself some maternity bras, very attractive!!! Not! Tried to find some maternity clothes too as mine are really getting a bit tight, and there was nothing, hardly any shops did any and the ones that did had about 4 things which were like old granny clothes!!! Got rather despondant and grumpy and a little teary, bloomin hormones! Am so tired from walking around the city too, goodness I get tired easily now and my belly is growing so quickly!

    Have my horrid glucose test tomorrow, not looking forward to it, 3 blood tests and a whole load of lucozade, how delightful!

    Should have ebayed today and should have got on with tidying but havent done any, have suddenly lost all motivation, lazy mare arent I lol. Right dinner...... oooh what to have?
