    I batch cook too and do chilli, chicken fajitas (the filling), steak casserole, bolognese, chicken curry and soup. I also keep Aunt Bessies roasties in the freezer to go with the casserole and for roast dinners.

    It wouldn't show the page SC.

    Today I have made 6 lasagne's to freeze in practice for batch cooking, didn't have a freezer last time so haven't done this bit before. :j exciting.

    Apart from lasagne and shepherds pie does anyone else have any suggestions which are easy to make and store. I have bought some cheap metal tins (like takeaway tins) which I am using so I can easily stack and label. Think OH would get board of the same thing all the time, as will I.

    Our freezer has to have more in it than frozen veg and chips :p

    Stews, curries, soups, pasta bakes, fish pie, pies - steak and onion, chicken and veg, etc.

    im starting a daisy labour course in a few weeks - did u like it - any advice?

    yes definately - its well up my street as i like to look at alternative natural options in all health related stuff. i have been to two classes but feel these have already given me a more positive outlook on labour and the feeling of being able to cope. i have a 6 weeks course booked.

    do you think its the same people doing the course? where abouts are you taking yours? mine is in peterborough

    god, today i feel i am going to burst, feel really tight and uncomfortable in top half of bump, i am thinking to myself surely i wont go over due date:o

    34+ 2 today so still quite a way to go.

    re hospital bags - i am about 75% packed, i want to be all ready from 37 weeks incase something does happen. will get some better cotton wool as only have small ball stuff

    i am thinking of buying some of thse 99% water wipes for out and about..............

    i like the idea of reusable ones which people are talking about - wouldnt this be very messy though, i am not a fan of poo lol

    16 days left a work, definately on count down.

    have really fancied an ice lolly these last couple of days, i havent had one since i was a kid, OH is going to get some at the weekend when he does food shop

    *coping vibes* to all you ladies

    ooh lots of lovely suggestions to keep me busy. Oh will be pleased :D

    Laura, if you use the reusable wipes and nappies, there is generally a paper lining in the nappy which will capture a good chunk of the poo. The wipes are then used and placed in a washable bag so that when you get home you can just throw it in the wash and not have to take them out individually.

    At least that is what I have gleamed from the information.
