  • Urinating after a baby stings like hell! However, if u have a jug of warm water next to u ready to pour over urself as u go, it helps ALOT! Also, so does going whilst in the shower (but this obviously isnt practical so many times a day!) It only stings of course if ur bits are grazed. Drink plenty of water too to dilute the urine.
    Good luck today Bump! Altho i`m sure by now things are already in motion!
    Good luck to anyone else that wants to pop today haha! xx

    You'l have to sign up for a little card thing at Matalan I think, to be able to purchase stuff, or I had to anyway :(

    Is it too early for biscuits? :o I'm bored with waiting for deliveries already. Oooh also OH posted our letter to M&P on his way to work, so we'l see what comes of that!

    I bought an almond croissant and an apple&blackberry pastry on the way to the office this morning. The croissant is gone. On top of that, I had a bowl of pasta with ragu left over from last night and half a bagel with honey oh and couple of lovely biscuits OH brought me from his trip to Switzerland a month or so ago, and have a huge box of pasta with ragu for lunch (freshly cooked this morning).

    Can't stop eating. Think about it as preparation for Christmas!

    Good luck with the M&P - don't let them fob you off...

    I've had weetabix and 2 glasses of milk. Think it's time to crack open the big guns and go for some decaff tea and giant buttons :) When I first found out I was pregnant I was eating so healthy, no snacks, takeaways, etc in the past few months it's all gone to pot and I find myself eating take away pizzas and munching on biscuits throughout the day. I've given up now. :o What's the point.

    We'l see how it goes, a bit peed off the voucher they did send me has a months expiry on it? :mad: I'll find something to order, but still!

    OH is very much trying to get me to eat more veg, but there are days, when I don't even want to look at them! I did have an indian takeaway once, and went out for Chinese with a friend, and had pizza couple of times delivered and made our own once... So, I am not eating very healthy, but I am trying to get at least some fruits in me. I have basically demolished a watermelon yesterday -OH had a few slices, but it was mainly my doing that all that was left were just the skins. I am considering getting another one today.... Even though they are not cheap, it keeps me happy and away from cakes!

    If anyone wants to do me a favour I'd be grateful :o

    I want fitted sheets for a crib, in blue if possible. Out of stock at Mothercare and, £19.98 for 4 from Babies R Us, if anyone can find them cheaper or with cheaper delivery than BRU (£4.95 :eek: ) I'd be very grateful xx

    Regarding leggings. I was looking for winter ones as the Matalan one I have are quite thin. I found these on eBay which are fab. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180722045347?var=480035592513&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 or Item number: 180722045347. They come in a variety of colours and sizes for £5.49 + £1.55 delivery, bargain. You can also have normal leggings or the winter ones. The winter ones have a thin fleece lining inside which is lovely.

    I'm usually a size 10 but bought 12 as I'm 38 weeks and they are perfect. Hope this helps.

    Kimmy :D
