Well peeps. That was my last nights sleep on my own for the next four weeks. Hubby gets home today on leave after almost 5 weeks away, so im going to have to share the bed and covers! Ive gotten used to sleeping in the middle in a "nest" of pillows. I think he will just have to make do with me hogging it cos i dont think i can share anymore! :-D

Have just been reading another thread on here from a lady asking for abortion advice/info. I was in tears. I just kept thinking about my little bump at that stage and how attached i already was to it. I really feel for the lady. Must be a terrible decision to have to make.

Well, must get on, time for a final hoover and dust around before his lordship returns. Cant have him thinking i live like a slob when he's away! :-)

Good morning all. I got my payslip today, and as I suspected, work have put me on maternity leave early as I've been off with back problems. The only thing is, I had two weeks of leave booked as I didn't want to leave the pay, so I wonder if I'm going to lose that two weeks pay? They haven't added it onto this payslip... I will investigate on Monday.

Labour isn't worrying me this time

I had a telephone appt with my doctor about something routine and she asked how many weeks I was and I didn't know oops! At least I do know that if I start getting cramps in December I should get down to the hospital :rotfl:

Ah we'd best get ready to go out... Older girls have gone out for the day, so just me and Squeak and we have shopping to do. Might take her to soft play or to feed the ducks on the way home just so I don't feel mean about just going shopping

The dreams are still a problem here... also Squeak's sleep is quite disturbed ATM due to (I think) teething and I feel like I had no sleep ta all even though I went to bed at 9 last night

Hope all you guys are OK and not in too much pain

Labour vibes to anyone who wants them and don't forget:

Do your pelvic floor excercises :T:D

Hi all! Bit late for me this is lol! Got up at 6.30 to watch the rugby then we had to take DS1 to his football match so only just sat back down. Good news is I didn't feel faint this week so didn't need to sit down therefore didn't need a help back up lol!

Morning all!

I'm still preggers Flower


Good :rotfl: I have a feeling you will have yours before me though! I think I'll still be sat here a week overdue!


Flower - Noah is a brilliant name, the only reason we're not using it is because close friends of ours already snaffled it! I think it'll easily suit all ages (and I've never met a bloke called Noah who wasn't gorgeous )


Ahh glad you think so As it is the only name we have agreed on (and we have been discussing names pretty much since being about 7 weeks pregnant!) I think that will end up being our final choice.

Tax credits - have a look hereit sounds like you can add the baby to an exisiting claim over the phone. To claim Child Benefit you need the birth certificate and you get the form in your Bounty pack from the hospital. In my experience most changes to tax credits usually take about 3 weeks to process but your payments should be backdated. Hope that helps

Ooh thank you for that, thats good that we dont have to start a new claim - hopefully should make the whole process a bit quicker. I'm thinking baby wont cost us much in the first few weeks anyway since we have plenty of nappies/food/clothes etc...

Am under orders from hubby to sit still and rest today following my show yesterday. He won't believe me that one tiny little 5p sized pink spot at this stage in pregnancy is absolutely nothing to worry about...bless him. He won't win though, I've got tons I want to do today!

OH doesnt seem to understand that Braxton Hicks are prefectly normal and nothing to worry about, hes always telling me to sit down! This is the one good thing about him working nights, while hes sleeping I get everything done I need to, then tell him I've been watching tv all day :rotfl:

morning all, another moan here, after feeling fine all week, i went to bed around half ten last night and woke up at 12.45 and started being sick again, felt really rough. managed to go back to sleep again around 2.30 so slept in till 8. but back and throat are now sore from being sick.

Hope your feeling better soon xx

Lirin

Morning all.

Emailed and wrote a letter to our HR dept yestarday morning, as I'm still being rota'd on after I should be on m/l. Wouldn't be concerned if it was just the rota, but our pay operates off this system. I had a very apologetic email from HR promising to chase it up. Shall see. Will get very annoyed if they don't....

DH bought me sticky cream buns for breakfast! It's a bad idea for me to walk into a bakery, I think.... I'd have spent a small fortune!

Family calmed, and a mental note never to joke about pregnancy again with them.... Gilly, I like the sound of your inlaws!

Ordered a bikini to wear in birthing pool- there's no way my ordinary one will fit- the chest would be a squeeze. The new one's chest looks massive, but fits perfectly- was looking at it doubtfully thinking it was a lot of material..... Will my chest go backto a smaller size after birth? I've been told that they grow a bit with breastfeeding- but I'm already a K- I dont want any bigger!

Oh, mirrorimage, I hope you feel better, I'm sorry you had a bad night

Kandboys

The names you ladies have picked are lovely they really are. We will end up having a shortlist I think
