I am working on minimalist.. I have clothing down to a manageable level.. and toys are my next project.. horrible thing is I know in the loft there are about 5 million boxes of toys I need to go through at some point!

Already did the loft. Hired a skip for £20.... Had it filled in ten minutes...

oooh - isn't feeling unsociable a sign of impending labour? Seem to remember some of the ladies due in April were feeling like that just beforehand..........

Ooh I hope so! Im getting fed up now! Don't want to moan but I just wish I knew exactly when baby is coming rather than thinking Im in labour twice a day (im so dramatic but am panicking I won't know when I really am :rotfl:)
My tens machine has arrived too so I honestly think Im as ready as Ill ever be now!

As for minimalist houses - I would love it but OH has so much junk! It seems like every day he brings another useless gadget into the house! He's only just realised that his golf clubs are going to have to move from the boot of the car so that we can put pram in there - I've told him they are not coming in the house, there is no room here already plus he hardly ever even blooming plays golf so they'll just be in my way the whole time!

DH tried to tell me his golf clubs that are just dumped in the hallway are modern art the other day!!! He nearly got a driver to the head for that little classic :rotfl:

Hi all,

haven't posted in a while, but hopefully everyone is enjoying the weather!! even being heavily pregnant i'm enjoying it!!

look at all them boldies!! Eek, not far behind now :eek:. 37 weeks this week and only 4 days of work left!! Would quite fancy a week off to myself, but after that baby can come at any time! I'm being seen twice a week now by the MW after my BP started to misbehave, still got to have an extra scan at 35 weeks which was cool!! Although they estimated that baby was already 6lb 7oz at 35+1 - erm, being a first timer that frightens me a tad!!

My nesting seems to have gone away - I'm really not bothered by bleaching everything in sight anymore :rotfl:

Just been out to get some lunch - why is it that a few mums out there feel the need to tell you in the street about their horror births, poo's and all sorts??? Today's one was just vile!! All the time I'm standing their in the sun with her saying 'i bet your uncomfertable', YES I am, so let me be on my way!!

You should have just said it out loud smileyface! I was cornered by an elderly gent today when out at lunchtime. Nothing to do with babies he was just bumbling on about absolutely nothing and didn't make much sense. I felt a bit guilty as he prob just wanted someone to talk to but after a couple of minutes I had to just walk of with a cheery "right then, see you again!"

Pigpen - I'll have to try some of those turning techniques. He's definitely trying to so something and it's getting uncomfortable. Pressure and wriggling in funny places. Stuck at my desk all day and as soon as I move he drops back down to lying sideways. I'll start crawling around at home. Saw something about transverse lying babes getting too comfortable/stuck but I'll try not to worry as it's still early.

I keep adding to my mental list of things to clean and sort. Fridge, kitchen cupboards, spare room/nursery wardrobe, clean behind tumble dryer. I never actually do any of it though!

Frozen peas balanced on DD3's head soon shifted her!

And as for cupboards... It's so frustrating the way you can have a really tidy cupboard for ages and then you only need to chuck/cram things in during a panic tidy up once and then it's all downhill from there. You'll never get the tidy cupboard back until you empty the lot. I've reached the point where all my cupboards are cramming ones.

I want an orange Calippo........

twi1ight, as and when it happens next time I might just starting talking about something really unsocialable.... not sure what.....maybe I'll ask how their piles were after birth or something. But these types of people would be more than happy to share that with me.....I see one of a few remidies.
1) Become a hermit for the next 3 weeks
2) wear a big eff-off look on my face all the time
3) just become abrupt
4) deal with it and just laugh at these people behine their backs!!

Today's woman would be well placed on the Jezza Kyle show!!!
