    I've still not done my online order, gonna just wait on my maternity allowance coming in, and do it then. I have to get up outta bed to go sort my dinner, but I cannot be bothered, been on the phone the whole afternoon to my best friend getting all sorts of gossip, I want to just snuggle down.

    I really can't believe in 7 weeks at the very most I'll have a baby, I can't really get my head around it at all. Suppose with your first it's hard to grasp what it'l actually be like! :o

    Also the massive 72 wash fairy soap powder is reduced from £20 to £10 at Sainsbos at the moment.

    :j Yay for baby Lovecrafting staying put a bit longer!!

    Am just back from M/W. Wish i hadnt bothered. She was running 40 mins late, no apologies. Didnt offer any check of dilation or sweep. BP slightly elevated, but lower than week before xmas's peak. Wee all clear again.
    Measurement wise, i'm at 40.5cm, so right for my weeks. Bean still 3/5 engaged (has been since 34 weeks), still cephalic, still more over on the right.

    So, just gotta see if these twinges and period pain feelings turn into anything , otherwise, guess will be seeing the consultant on Friday.

    I hate when they're running late and you don't even get as much as an apology or sorry for keeping you! :mad:

    My growth scan next week, OH has an exam soon after so they bloody better take me on time.

    I've not posted for a while but wanted to know if you ladies in the later stages are taking Raspberry Leaf Tea tablets/tea?
    I'm 38+2, due on the 16th Jan and I started drinking 1 cup of tea a day at week 34, then swapped onto 2 x 375mg tablets per day at week 36

    Hi eebee, I've been taking 1 tablet a day from 32-34 weeks, 2 tablets a day from 34-36 weeks and them from 36-38 weeks 3 a day, and 38 onwards 4 a day. My tablets are 400mg. Hope that helps x

    That's good news lovecrafting. Enjoy your kebab!
    I've had to buy some maternity briefs today as my other ones were starting to cut into my bump and were getting a bit uncomfortable. Quite glad my OH ran off when he did cos he sure as hell would if he saw me in these. Not exactly sexy but needs must!!!
    I'm another one with an online shopping order tomorrow. Changed it about 10 times cos I keep thinking of other things I fancy and when they come probably won't want.

    I'm 40+5, and started drinking organic RLT at 34 weeks. Just one cup to start with, now making it stronger and drinking 2-3 cups.
