Congrats Miss Money :j:j Mabel (and your other two girls) are absolutely gorgeous, the girls look so pleased with their new sister
The birth sounded perfect but sorry you had complications in the aftermath - at least you back home now though and can get on with recovering 
(((hugs))) Gemma, hope you having a better day today
Took DS to school this morning and it dawned on me it is the last time I will be taking him without a baby (he's on hols for 2 weeks as of today)... very freaky feeling
Today I have not much planned except I have to go and do some food shopping later, not looking forward to going out in the heat but it has to be done 
Hope all ok, ((hugs)) to those who need em

Not in a good way today - my hands and feet have become even more swollen and itchy and now my engagement and wedding rings are truly stuck. My mum told me to take them off a couple of weeks ago and I really wished I had of listened. Have become a bit panicy as my finger is throbbing with them on - have tried raising hand, cold water, lotions everything. Have hospital appointment at 12.30 to discuss test results and am really worried now that the rings will have to be cut off
Will sit outside in the sun until then trying to calm down and ignore the pain
Have a good day all

Triangle the heat from the sun can make swelling worse. Good luck at your appointment.
I get to go home from hospital today

Try going to a local jewellers, they know all sorts of tricks to get them off ! We are in Norfolk too and its bloody gorgeous today :j
My first pregnancy was in 2003 and it was the hottest Summer for 40 years or something daft like that
I will be at exactly the same place in this pregnancy as that one as im due 2 days earlier so REALLY hoping it doesnt get that hot again !

I really want to walk down to the shop to get some tuna before it gets too hot but I'm waiting for someone to come and pick a bed up. It used to be in the little bedroom and is like new. It's one of those single beds with another underneath that you can pull out to make 2 singles or a double. It's so handy to have but we don't have any room anymore. We couldn't find anyone who wanted it so we're donating it to a charity. The guy said he'd be here between 9 and 12, I'm hoping it's sooner rather than later. It's already 22 degrees in the house with the windows open!
Got lots of housework to do today as my bestest is coming to stay tomorrow and we are going to see Rhod Gilbert :j
Hope everyone has a good day and is not too uncomfortable. Labour vibes to all the what them.

Hi ladies, I have a question for anyone that lives near Bangor in N. Wales. I'm moving there at the end of July because that's where my hubby lives at the minute (he's doing his PhD) and we rent a cottage there.
Do you know of any baby groups/soft play facilities or anything in the area? I've tried google but apparently the people of N Wales aren't big on using the internet to promote these things. I'm just asking because I won't know anyone and want to make sure bubs and I get a good chance to socialise, bond and learn together when he arrives in September.
I'm sure I can find out more when I register with docs/hospital down there, but I just wondered if I could get a head start.Reduction in daily mortgage interest since October 23 (new mortgage) - £2.84 December 25

Museumworker welcome to maternity leave....it's great

I have to say I am glad mine will be here soon, I am so uncomfortable in this heat and would hate to have to be prego throughout it. Feeling rather pleased at the thought of lots of walks with baby in the lovely weather (if it lasts of course!). I have no garden (just a small concrete square), but less than 2 mins walk away is this....

Hi Twinklie,
I've lived in Bangor for about twelve years now.
There are a couple of baby groups that I'm aware of in Bangor and in the surrounding areas. I can only think of one soft play place and it's usually busy, I know my friends who already have kids use it a lot.
I'm due at the end of August / early September and would be happy to get together if you would like to? A friend of mine works with the local health visitors so she's got lots of info about the different groups. If you drive you'll find life a bit easier as you can attend groups in nearby villages as well.
PM me if you'd like to swap contact details. This is my first baby so I can't offer you access to a massive support network yet- but would love to meet up with someone in the area who's baby will be about the same age as mine.
Good luck with the move xDon't suffer alone - if you are experiencing Domestic Abuse contact the National Domestic Abuse Helplines
