Thanks fluffnutter - I was taking the intial prescription first thing in the morning when I woke up - partly so I wouldn't forget to take it too. Have you found that your heartburn has been worse since you've been pregnant or has it made no difference? Hopefully yours may disappear once Muffin arrives - my friend had IBS pre-pregnancy and hers completely disappeared after she had her first baby - it's so weird what these hormones can do to our bodies. lol

Congratulations to your BIL MrsBryan - that's amazing news!

Thanks fluffnutter I'm SO happy for them, especially as it was their last one they could afford, it just seems meant to be!
SIL had a brain hemorrhage 2 years ago and we nearly lost her, so that put them back a few steps too. They've just been through so much, I'm over the moon for them!

Slightly worse, but still manageable. I have to top up occasionally at night with some Gaviscon (perhaps a couple of times a week).

Having said that, I don't drink now (obviously) and it was always alcohol (white wine in particular) that was the killer for me.

I'd love to be free of it, but I've suffered for the past 20 years so I'm not holding out much hope! My whole family's the same, and the OH. We've got shares in companies that manufacture omeprazole!

Morning all!

Emsbet, those baskets are lovely! We've got a bit more time to sort everything out which is a relief, as at the moment the room we're planning on using as a nursery is sort of an overflow-storage area, and we're in the process of making arrangements to knock down a wall between our kitchen and dining room and have a new kitchen put in in the next few months. Eek. Still, it'll be nice when it's done!

Sounds like there's going to be a flurry of babies soon, lots of people being induced, how exciting! Labour vibes to everyone, hope it goes well.

I have a call for help to make - my stepmother (who is lovely) said that she was getting her knitting needles out when we told her and my dad that there was a grandchild on the way. I know that a lot of you are crafty and I was wondering if any of you could point me in the direction of 'nice' knitted things and patterns so that [STRIKE]I don't end up with a load of dated tat[/STRIKE] we can put in some requests for stuff that we'd actually use?

Check out ravelry.com, there are loads of free patterns you can print off for her. I'm a crocheter, and have made a couple of lovely blankets from there (but no knitting ones to suggest I'm afraid!)

BB no, he has to work Friday and even if he could get the day off, my work won't cover the cost of his flight and it's just under £400! It's money we can't spare at the moment. I just know he is going to be really stroppy with me tonight now.

I think it is quote funny that I keep moving up and down the list from 68 to 69 and then down to 70 and then back to 69 again... I can't help thinking that it was all this moving up and down and 69ing that got me into this position in the first place ... sorry to be crude I just thought it was funny!

I don't think you can get pregnant from a 69, or a 99 for that matter :rotfl::rotfl:

Congrats on third trimester Emsbet I am shortly behind you

Love the baskets and have saved it on the computer.

I'm not but the OH's legs are 37 inches :eek:

Got discharged from consultant-led care today as BP has behaved itself throughout the pregnancy despite starting off high. Woo-hoo. Won't be automatically induced at term and don't need to go to the full-on labour ward.

Now I can use reflexology and scented candles for pain relief whilst giving birth in next door's paddling pool

Wow he's a giant!! Me and my OH are both over 6ft with a 34" and 35" inside leg so expecting baby to be all legs.

Great news on being discharged from consultant care too I hope you get the labour you want now x
