    Oohh. Pregnant lady on deal or no deal today. Hope she does well. :)

    Can't wait till OH gets home. We having roast chicken, stuffing, mash, carrots, peas and green beans, then chocolate sponge and custard for afters and I'm dying for it lol.

    Seems my appetite is back thank god...

    Still 9 and a bit kilos under what my weight was at booking in appointment, so figure I'm allowed a bit of a pigout week :D

    I love Logan as a name, but OH says he doesn't want a mini wolverine.
    I totally would (wouldn't mind the full size wolverine either :whistle: lol)

    As for what people say about name choices, wouldn't do for us all to be the same, or have the same taste in names, imagine how confusing that would be.

    Any news from any of the boldies yet? Xx

    Think we've settled on the middle name Matthew, and I was asking hubby what he thought of Damon a few weeks ago. He said you're not serious, Damon, Matt, say the name, so I said Damon Matt, Damon Matt. What's wrong with that? He asked if I didn't see any issue in choosing that, I said no. He said to me to keep saying it then, so over and over, I'm saying Damon Matt, Damon Matt, Damon Matt, Damon Matt and I still didn't get it. In the end, he asked me to google Damon Matt........ ah, the penny dropped :rotfl:

    OMG just fell asleep for 2 hours, havent done that in months!!!! Not sure if I feel better or not!!!!! Names definitely are a minefield, we were so chuffed with our girls name and everyone seems to love it but the boys name everyone was just like, oh am not sure about that, or why would you pick that.

    Everyone is different though......and dare I say entitled to their opinion, but there is definitely a right and wrong way of going about it!!!!!

    Hi all :)

    Been out all day, been to midwife she gave me another sweep, she said waters where bulging and she could feel baby's head eek!!! she said if my waters havent gone by morning when I go for my induction, she doesnt think i'll need any gel/pessary she thinks they will just be able to break my waters and hopefully that should do it!! I am feeling loads and loads of pressure now and feeling really anxious, but excited to meet my baby :)

    hope we have some news from other boldies soon :)

    :rotfl: That's really funny, but how often would you use the full name anyway so I don't think it matters!

    Are you feeling so much pressure that you can't sit normally? I was halfway round the supermarket this afternoon and I thought something was going to come flying out - now I have a LOT of pressure VERY low down and can only sit on my ball and barely walk - not due to SPD pain this time!

    Hey guys,


    I've come over from the less than 12 weeks... thread, I'm having a bit of a bad day and am looking for some reassurance and advice from those of you who are further along. Work is getting me really down, they don't know that I'm pregnant but even if they did I don't think much would change, I manage a small team in the voluntary sector and money is getting really tight so my staff are feeling very demotiviated and I feel crap because I don't have enough energy to write funding applications and keep them going too :( I'm writing applications to keep us all in work, so the pressure is starting to get to me and the quality of my work, and the quality of my thinking has really dropped, I know it's all part of the job but I just want to hide in my bed


    I feel better for putting that down in writing, any tips for keeping going through pregnancy without letting the stress get too much?
