    My tops I ordered from DP's came this morning, none of them are "stretchy" material like I thought they would be, so they make me feel less like I'm wearing maternity stuff :) They are all a bit big, as I ordered the next size up, but at least I've room to grow.

    Hope you feel better soon lirin :)

    i'm still feeling mighty dreadful :( have drunk 3 big glasses of fresh orange, 2 lots of lactulose and had a little snooze and i'm not feeling much better, I have really restless legs that are aching so i've had paracetamol too. If I feel this way tomorrow am deffo calling the docs theres no way I can have a baby whilst I feel this way :( On the plus side If I do go into labour I will be ringing up straight away and requesting an enema :) (I had one before induction last time it was brill!)

    Thanks for letting me moan

    Congrats Pigpen, she's gorgeous, like a wee doll :)

    I just about killed myself trying to shave my legs, my bump isn't even that big yet! I feel ill now and my stomach hurts! On the plus side I've got smooth legs, which will last all of about 2 days?!?! :mad:

    I'm 20 weeks today, half way there, hopefully!!

    I last shaved my legs about 3 weeks ago - booked in for a wax tomorrow but it hasn't grown!! I don't think they'll be able to wax anything off! :eek: Must be hormones, but why they didn't kick in 6 months ago when it would have helped I don't know.

    On the same thread anyone else having probs with dry eyes? I've only had my contacts in about 4 hours and my eyes are killing me. :(

    Had lunch with friend, was good to get out but really shouldn't have stopped at Aldi on the way back - only bought a few bits but pushing the trolley nearly killed me. I think that's the last food shop I'm going to be able to do now :(

    Who was it that was going to measure their own b00bs and buy nursing bra's online? Just wondered what website they are ordering off - it's something I know I need to do, but can't really be bothered.... :o

    So v tired....

    PP - your OH doesn't look as scared of this little bundle as you said he was of the last one? Is he a bit better this time?

    C xx

    Twas me! I just googled bra measuring guide and then I'll buy the bras from ebay. If they don't fit they can just be relisted straight away and I'll buy a different size!
