    Thanks Jen.. :) I didnt dare hope for such a good result. And its all down to martins MSE website, where i read someone else complained about the same thing from the same place. Go MSE! Now i can justify to my DH the amount of time i spend on here! :rotfl:

    Glad some of you are making progress on names. We have in theory been in agreement on our girls name and a just in case boys name for about 6 months. Lets just see if she looks like her name when she comes!

    PS, nice to see you Mimi. Been ages!

    omfg!! Totally non baby related.. Just had a call from evil bank, responding to a complaint i put in about a loan i used to have, and they have decided to refund me over £2k in interest payments! So i should be getting a juicy cheque, right before i go on mat leave. I am SO happy, as my company gives stat minimum mat pay, and i have been really stressing that my savings werent going to last. I'm still going to have to be careful, but man.. it really takes the pressure off! Right, this calls for celebratory chocolate (sod the heartburn).

    :beer::beer::beer: Wow!! Great news Kira!

    I was still planning on taking 6 months, but i've been stressing about the probability running out of cash in april, when i'm not due back till July. Was having to rely on getting a bit of a bonus from work in Feb/March, but this gives me a bit of a breathing space in case it doesnt come through. If it does, and i have this banked too, then even better! :)

    Oooh i LOVE talking baby names :)
    We already have Taylor, Imogen and Lily, so really wanted an American name this time. I love love love the name Tatum ( to be known as Tate ) but DH isnt keen :( DH and the girls all wanted this baby to be called Ethan once we knew we were team blue, but I am quite particular about how names are said, and hate it when people dont say "th" and use "f" instead, so Ethan was out of the window for me...! Thats why DD2 is Imogen instead of Katie, as so many people say the name without pronouncing the T! Saying that, it surprises me just how many people cant say Imogen, its alwasy ImogIn! Theres no I at the end! Argh!!!
    Anyhoo.....I *think* we have decided on Flynn Daniel Craig :) Daniel is DH, and Craig is his brother that passed away last month. It was going to just be Daniel Craig....however, what with the James bond actor, it put me off!
    Isabella was top of our girls names this time, but probably would have changed nearer the ue date haha!
    I do like the names Zach (but a friend had a dog called it!) Alfie (MIL dog) and Hayden (way too close to our surname :( )
    My cousin just had a baby Maisie, and Riley was on our boys names for DD2, however, had i known at the time its a unisex name, she`d still have been called Riley!!
    SPD is quite bad today :( its mainly my right hip and down below...(and that another story!)
    Acid reflux isnt too bad yet, but had it really bad with DD3, and apparently milk can make it worse so my previous midwife told me! xxx
    Mummy to 3 beautiful GIRLS, 9, 7 and 3, :D and a handsome lil BOY 03.03.12 :T

    WOW that's fantastic Kira! :j :j Bet that's a great big weight off your mind!

    We got an unexpected cheque last month, from an insurance policy OH's mum took out for him when he was little, so our baby fund got a nice £1200 injection... I told him it was his money so he should at least treat himself to something but he's put it all in the baby pot for now...
