    Snap Emsbet! Just scoffed a massive chinese takeaway nom nom nom :D

    I could really go for a McDonalds milkshake now you mention it RJH....too full up to be arsed to go to the drive thru though. Might knock up some Angel Delight. I know it's filth food (the kind you know you prob shouldn't buy cos it's [EMAIL="!!!!py"]!!!!py[/EMAIL] but do cos it's yummy - other examples are Pot Noodles, Fray Bentos Pies etc) but I can't get enough of it at the minute. Anyone else got any filth food confessions...?

    You're not supposed to have runny boiled eggs?? Yikes! I eat them all the time. How can you eat a solid yolk? That's just wrong.

    Feeling a little puffy today. Heat plus nearing my due date I guess. I thought I'd got away with it, but obviously not. I've lost the bone definition in my (usually fabulous) ankles and my ring (wedding, not botty) is a bit tight.

    No soft cheese like Philadelphia is fine hun :)

    I know that lol (im an addict - i have it with EVERYTHING, curry being my favourite :o) , sadly the 2 women my OH works with scared him silly by gasping and telling him its really dangerous for pregnant women :eek: luckily he believed me when I told him its fine, I also told him not to listen to the woman who had a child over 20 years ago and the other who has never been pregnant :p

    With every pregnancy ive had now the advise has been different !

I have to take my dd to airport tomorrow an hours drive then onto reading to pick up a cot I bought off eBay and back to Cardiff. In this heat. I think I def need to wear a skirt so fingers crossed defuzz attempt goes ok lol.

    The thing about raw/undercooked eggs is to do with salmonella. Since all supermarket eggs are lion stamped I don't worry about it. I personally am also not concerned about catching toxoplasmosis from a rare steak, although I am avoiding totally raw meat like carpaccio

  • If I'm honest I do love a runny egg, especially since OH has perfected poaching them. Probably having a couple a week. I'm a bit relaxed when it comes to this kinda thing. Te only bit I'm sticking to is the cat litter. OH really doesn't want me to change it, who am I to argue ;) going to try and get her brave enough to go outside and hopefully no more litter trays.

    Just back from seeing American Pie film. Cost £19 for the tickets, I nearly fainted!!! The film was really funny. Still very warm outside though strange walking outside without a jumper at this time of night, but lovely.
    I'm shattered, hope everyone gets a decent nights sleep. I know it's hard with heat/SPD and arguments with pillow mountains lolxx

    Well, my DW's been on iron tablets for the past 6 weeks and her iron levels have fallen to 9.9. We're now taking liquid iron, which is not difficult in this heat - everything's melting! I did tell her to ask the GP for anti diarrhoea tablets cos that's pretty much all she has had for the past few weeks... but she chose not to.

    And then I read about Miss Money's birth story, and am now sat here wondering if the same thing is more likely - as a result of low iron levels. must... not... worry...!
    .

    PLEASE DON'T WORRY! my iron count before birth was 10.4 after i bled i lost about 950ml... that seriously brings the count down. it wasnt the birth that did it. it was the hemorage and its rare to hemorage. please don't worry!!! xx

    Ohhh I'm too hot. Been awake since 4.30 so thought stuff it and have come downstairs. It's much cooler down here. Will have to nap later to catch up on some sleep. Usually I can sleep like a log but what with the heat, baby kicking, constant need to pee, sun streaming through the blinds and a cat on my feet, it's a recipe for disaster!
