Cheers honey. Yeah I might do that. I move down there to live with DH when school finishes, so fingers crossed I can get more info. I just want to know what I'm facing if that makes sense.Reduction in daily mortgage interest since October 23 (new mortgage) - £2.36 July 25

Phew I think I've caught up!
Jovi - Max is a cutey.
Rebekah - we've just booked our antenatal classes, I hope we don't get a battle axe like you had, I think it's good to be prepared for the bad stuff as well as the good but sounds like she went a little bit over the top with it.
Whowants2brich - good luck and hope your enjoying baby cuddles real soon.
Fluffnutter - glad your scan went well, not long to go for you now, baby sounds a good weight. Are you and your partner tall? I think we are going to have a long baby too.
Triangle - sorry to hear the hospital appointment wasn't as good as could have been but I hope your bp goes down a little bit for you.
Sexymouse - my mum wants to be a Nanny too, my mil was a nanny to her grand kids so we were a bit shocked when mum said that's what she wanted, we always thought she would choose grandma. My dad said he wants to be a grandad and my step dad hasn't said what he wants to be called though. My mum will be 45 when she becomes a grandma lol, 2 days before I told her I was pregnant she was teasing my auntie who is a year older that she was gonna be a grandma because my cousin is pregnant too.
As for me, I have leaky boobs that weigh a ton and ache like mad. Really itchy nipples too so going to be buying some nipple cream or something too, have got breast pads in already.
We had our check up appointment with the consultant yesterday after me being admitted the other week and it was a horrible appointment. My bp was slightly up, but no protein in my urine or anything so nothing to worry about yet. The doctor we saw was new though and really didn't seem to know what he was doing. He used a doppler to listen to baby and he couldn't pick the baby up, he told us there was a problem with the babies heartbeat and was off to get someone else and left us in the room for 45 minutes panicking before a midwife came in and used a different doppler and found the heartbeat straight away, turned out the doppler he had tried to use was broken and he hadn't realised!! He was very apologetic as was the midwife but still don't know how I didn't have a major meltdown or how my OH didn't bop him one.
I also asked about the epidural/c-section thing and was told I can have one but they have to stop my medication 12 hours before labour starts for me to be able to have one. Now unless they have a magic wand to predict when I'm going to go into labour does that sound like they will induce me?
Got my 2nd GTT in 2 weeks and then scan and consultant appointment on 11th. Hoping I will still be able to see things on it at 28 weeks
V Day tomorrowx
You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

BB how exciting!! Are you nervous?
Got a feeling there will be a few babies born in the next week or so! Ours included please!!
Uh YES!
Very niceJust needs a baby to complete the look! I noticed a little spotty orange box - is there a knitted little cuddly bear thing inside? If so, we've got one of those too!
Just waved off two of my best friends, who came over for a takeaway and a girly catch up - was lovelySo strange to say bye to them knowing that next time I see them I'll have a baby! A real life actual baby....!
Had a nice spicy thai curry so hopefully that might encourage things along a bit...
