    I've had a really good day. Firstly had a nice snoozle after work this morning, then got up, got myself a washing up bowl for £1.30 to soak my feet in.
    Then due to getting totally drenched from the carpark to the shopping centre, went to mothercare to get a new top (previous one was white and very thin!). Managed to find one in the sale and it's BOGOF so had to get a lovely dress too!

    THEENNNN it got really good.
    Went into Mr T's to get nappies etc and use up all my coupons,
    Got 2x Pack of New born nappies, 2x Pack of size 2 nappies, 16x packs of baby wipes, and assorted Johnsons baby toilettries. Came to £55.81....
    Used the coupons and multibuy savings....
    £19.66 to pay! :-) Happy days.
    Makes up for putting up with the sweltering heat!

    Hope everyone else is having a good day.
    Bump due 22nd September

    Milk really helps my heartburn. Haven't really had it before so I'm wondering if this baby has lots of hair?!!

    Now my sickness has dropped off, i'm starting with heartburn/indigestion. My only saviour from it so far has been a chocolate Frijj milkshake in the morning. Yummmmmm. Not brilliant i know, but at least its 87% of my daily calcium RDA! (small mercies)

    Mums when you had your bloody show how long did it take for you to go into labour? I've gone from green mucus plug to full on show with backache and cramps within a few hours. Not going to lie, am very excited :)

    Heartburn is driving me mad today! well i say today, it's gradually been building up recently (had it bad last time too).

    I'm going baby clothes shopping at the weekend-i have been holding back untill i'd had the 20 week scan :)

    I've had really horrible acid in my throat for the past couple of weeks, been driving me nuts. Never even tasted my dinner last night because of it.

    Hi! How exciting for you Sequeena!! I hope this is it. Sending you lots of easy labour/birth vibes. Keep us posted before you head into hosp.

    Abby -.midwife told me today that I'll more than likely go over due and by then you'll defo have your bubs. Does that make you feel a tiny bit better? Hope so.

    At the appointment today she said he was 4/5 palp - just! She even started telling me how she'll book the induction when we next meet in a fortnight. Doesn't sound promising for an early, or even on time eviction. Hey ho, I'll just spend the time trying but failing to sleep.
