    Morning ladies,

    Ro - Can't believe reading that you're at 38 weeks now and also that some of the other ladies that I've been following through over the last few months, it's nearly our turn :D

    In some ways, it feels like it's been forever and in other ways, the time has flown. The midwife said to me yesterday (36+1) that really the baby could come any time now, so I packed up the baby's hospital bag last night and I'm determined to get my own finished this weekend, as throwing things in a sort of pile isn't quite packing them :rotfl: I more week to work and then I get to sit with my feet up for a bit. This baby better not be late!

    Hope you're all having a good day :)
    TTC #3..........

    Sorry to hear about your cold and sinusitus. Hope you are feeling much better now. And I am sure you won't get bored with 3 weeks of work!!! I am sure you will find something to do, and enjoy the day time TV!

    I have just done some sums, and it looks like my income for next year (2012/3) will be about £25k less... I don't think we will be entitled to much, as with OH's salary, we will be about £50k combined. (before tax). Ok, we can't complain, we got decent salaries, but it seems a big hit!!!!

    I haven't got any boxes yet, but really want to - just had no chance to get to the shop, might try tonight. I was thinking of 3-4 boxes. We have a garage, and I can store things there, so it is not like it will take over the house! Is there a limit at how many you can buy at once?

    Ok watched OBEM last night. Bit late I know ;-) Hubby sat there and sneaked looks around his laptop screen. Think he may, but didnt look to see, have had a tear or 2. I was nearly screaming at the tv for that baby to cry! I hate it when they do that. Gosh had tears at that one for sure. Her man needed a kick up the butt for being a miserable sod. And oh the poor guy that only got 24 hrs with his babe. Geeeeeeeeeeeze. So sad.

    Only got two, but I also have a 28 wash box of Ariel non-bio that I've literally only just opened...

    After it was posted on here about it being on offer, I asked OH to get the first box on his way home from work that day. It was his idea to get another one... I think I'm going to get another one, will get it when I go to get OH from work later.

    I don't think there's a limit to how many you can buy at a time, at least I didn't see anything today saying there was a limit...

    I saw my nephew born and he didn't breath for a minute or two, and was grey/purpleish, those where the longest minutes of my life! He started to breath and pinked up very quickly. Mummy got a cuddle for 5 minutes until his lips started turning blueish so they took him back. Apparently it was just lots of mucus and they were not too concerned, which seems so counterintuitive to me, but 5 minutes later he was back for cuddles and a go at breast feeding. No special monitoring and released 12 hours later (overnight) from hospital. Ben is 8 now and at the top end of his class!

    I have bought 1 box of the fairy washing powder but didn't get any more as we haven't much storage room inside. I could store it in the garage but I'm worried it might get damp! Do others do this and find it ok? The garage doesn't leak or anything but obviously the general atmosphere out there is damper than in the house.

    I forgot to get anything out the freezer for tea so Dh says we can get dominoes. Anyone got any good codes?

    Don't know about Dominos, Lisa but if you've got a Papa Johns near you, they're doing BOGOF plus a free bottle of Coke throughout January, we had it last night! :D
