    fluff my condolences, a few months ago I couldn't go for a week (!) and it was torture. I sincerely hope you get to poo soon!!

    I'm back from the hospital, and after an hour of monitoring with a final blood pressure of 118/68, the lowest it has been since January, I was sent on my merry way with no sweep, as the midwife said no need to interfere if BP is fine .....I'm very happy as I wasn't comfortable with the idea, the sweep itself I'm ok with but I felt the consultant didn't make a proper decision, just an automatic "errr...sweep...next please!" kind of judgement, whereas the midwife took the time to examine me, baby and my notes before making a recommendation.

    So, miss money doesn't look like I'm going to beat you just yet!!

    Why's the Dream Sheep so good? I've got this, ( http://www.mamasandpapas.com/product-babyplay-sheep/755882733/type-i/ ) is it any different?

    I do have two e-cards for M&P, a £10 and a £5, I'm wondering if I could use together and maybe get a deal?

    Had the GTT this morning. Wasn't too bad except I had a major headache so didn't go back to work. Oh and both arms wouldn't stop bleeding after the tests. That was fun. OH nearly passed out so I had to give him my comfy chair & nurse fussed over him! God knows what he'll be like at the birth!

    What kind of bedding you after? I use sleeping bags for my daughter and planning the sane for this one so I just needs sheets which I plan to get from matalan as these were great for my daughter :)

    ummm... baby bedding?? lol, i dont know. We have been given a moses basket and have a cot on order but seeing the mattress that came the other day, the cot must be huge! so i have a cot sheet and mattress protector for bed we got in asda event but think we would like bedding for moses basket - you need less if they have sleeping bag do you? hmm. i've also read something about less bedding before 1 years old, is this accurate?

    first day back at uni for the final week was fun, couldnt get comfortable in any position!! off out to preggo yoga now and already looking forward to the pizza and garlic bread in my fridge :D got a stitch today walking 15 mins to uni - odd as i have been teaching dance for so long in this pregnancy now but i have normally driven to the placement...

    Apparently it's pink noise not white?! Whatever that is. There's an explanation of what it does here.

    We're not planning on using the sleeping/grobag things so for our moses basket we have a few sheets to cover the mattress and a few thin cellular blankets which can be folded if baby gets cold.
    My MIL thought the moses basket sized sheets were stupidly expensive considering baby is likely to be in there for less than 6 months so bought a standard cotton sheet for a double bed and cut it to size - 4 suitable sheets for £8.00 plus a couple of ends suitable for using like muslin cloths.
