    I remember years ago someone told me, that we all function better on 4 hourly sleep blocks, so if you can't get 8 hours, have 4, not 6 etc. If you over sleep 8, have 12, something to do with sleep cycles and falling back into a deep sleep at the end of 4.

    So that sounds about right Kira!

    oooh gilly, you sound like you look very foxy, I hope you have a good night!!

    Yaaay jenjade, im deciding whether i want any tea, might rustle up a pasta dish if im hungry in a bit.

    We've got practically everything for the baby now, practically everything was from ebay I adore our nursery :) its so pretty.

    The only thing we havent got is little things like nail clippers, nappy rash cream and a travel changing mat, actually does anyone know where i can get a decent cheapish one from? just need one for the changing bag. Oooooh am so excited about this baby coming I can't tell you, Not long now, 3 weeks and 5 days to go, lol not that I'm counting!!

    i believe that, as lately I have been only having 4 hours and I have felt fine on it, but the odd night that I hve more sleep I feel awful.

    omg am watching the weirdest come dine with me on 4+1, a very strange mix of people!!

    going to bounce on my ball for a bit :)

    Speaking of sleep, i went up for a quick nap just before 3..... and just came down again now. Feeling slightly stupid headed now, but man that was a good sleep.

    Thanks girls, I'm starving so hopefully it's somewhere good for dinner. It's so rainy and horrible outside though, I was looking forward to a night of packing my case and watching X Factor :o

    Daytime naps are always the best, maybe TMI, but whenever I sleep during the day I always drool, but it never happens at night, so I'm convinced I must be so relaxed and enjoy my day time sleeps better, such a guilty pleasure :o

    Ive had such bad sleep all week, with DH and having snotty noses, that i just cant seem to catch up on the missing sleep hours at night. I wouldnt normally have such a long afternoon nap, just because as you say Missy, it can stop me sleeping as well at night, but oooooooh it was good.

    thanks jenjade.

    just been looking at reviews for the madela breast pump, bit concerned about the bad ones, mind you all of the different ones have some good some bad, i guess its just weighing it up.

    Just bought my moses basket downstairs as that is where it is going to stay as wse have a crib upstairs, is very strange to see it there, and to think soon it iwll have a tiny baby in it, very scary thought!

    I'm just back from Boots. Didn't think I would get as much as I did, and forgot about the tenner worth of points for £50.... I spent £47.... Only realised as I walked out the door! Stupid- considering taking a look in my local Boots in the morning- a very very tiny one and seeing if they do the promotion- I'd return and rebuy everything with something to make up to £50... Or is that terribly cheeky?
