That's why we are looking for books on hypnobirthing as although some people might think it's all mumbo jumbo and not real techniques I've heard a lot of really positive feedback and so want to try it.

There was a girl in my physio class who used hypnobirthing with her first child and said it was brilliant.

I was really into waterbirth until I realised that water in the pool is likely going to be... very warm. I hate baths and can't stand any more than 10 minutes in them and if the water is very warm I soon start feeling sick and need to come out. So I think that pretty much rules out water birth for me I like to be cool and I'm afraid I'm going to be struggling with the temperature in the hospital - when I went in for monitoring it was so hot (I had t-shirt and leggings on) that if they kept me there any longer I would've fainted!

Re 3-wheelers: I heard X-landers are pretty good.

Ooh I hate being too warm as well, I always have the windows open at home and when I was in hospital the other week I wore a vest and shorts on a night, had the window next to me open and slept on top of the covers lol. I'm the same at home though I don't do covers in bed whereas my OH really snuggles up in them.

Evening everyone,

Have had a lazy weekend as still have this stupid cold. Popped in to town yesterday and picked up the changing mat and cotbed sheets from Next. Am waiting for the wall stickers to come back in stock, very annoying. Today popped out and picked up a Pizza Hut takeaway. Very naughty then chilled watching 27 Dresses and the footy.

Ooh and I ordered my changing bag.

I was treating myself from my bonus which I get tomorrow, but yesterday I came home to a surprise £50 cheque from a Take a Break comp so am using that towards it instead

Hope everyone's doing well.

I've seen quite a lot of those changing bags around and wondered where you got them, they are lovely! Very nice bellola and well done on the cheque! Although the yummy mummy ones are out of my price range, we got ours from Ebay for £15!

So hard to choose one, our pram is lime green so got it to match

am struggling with being too warm right now. earlier i was cold and then when iwent for my lesson i was sweating it and the house is warm. normally i complan i am cold but today its so annoying. I usually find hospitals too warm too but i think in may day they are controlling the heat or something as it was just ok. lol. had a day of on and off period type pain. treated myself to some madeira cake now. am glad that i am not craving chocolate like i used to but still like my cakes and crisps now.

trying to be healthy but sooo hard.

Thanks for the advise. i def wont worry about the birth yet. am already thinking about the 20 week scan.:rotfl:

My bedroom window is open a crack during the day and "properly" open during the night, even in the winter. I bought a few sleeveless tops from New Look to use with leggings in hospital instead of pyjamas. The tops are very stretchy so I'll be able to breastfeed without taking them off and so thin that they shouldn't make me too hot. Worried about managing labour in hot conditions though - I would really hate to end up totally naked!

Ooh MrsBryan, that's so cute!

I got this changing bag: http://www.boots.com/en/Bababing-Totally-Tote-changing-bag-black_1245467/

Out pram is dark blue and black so should match fine. Wanted to get a bag my DH wouldn't be ashamed of using. It's got lots of pockets, including a separate one for soiled nappies. I got it in an independent pram shop so actually got to play with it before buying.
