Oh Sammie lol, u said yesterday u were doing online shopping!! I do miss shopping at ur asda tho, its huge, about 10x the size of our one here Altho our Tesco is better haha!

Pelvic floor, ur best off doing a mix of the 2, 10 short ones, then 5 longer ones. Also, dont hold ur breath whilst doing it! I struggle with that bit lol!

Yay for last day at work x

Oooh forgot to ask, I got my dishwasher yesterday (woo hoo!!!!!!!!!!) And was just wondering, can u wash baby bottles in them or not?!! Never had one b4, so wont hurt if i have to wash them by hand, but thought if the dishwasher is going on, may as well chuck the bottles in if i can haha! xx

morning ladies,

can't believe we haven't had a new baby now in over a week! Come on babies, we want to see yoooou!

OBEM last night was awful, I cried so much (I think DH had a bit of eye-leakage too!). That poor little baby with her little broken arm So scary.

Thanks for the reminder about pelvic floors, Kira. I must admit I keep forgetting to do mine, anyone got any tips on how to remember?! Also, is it better to do lots of short fast ones, or fewer long ones....?

Working from home today, which is great (especially as have had a cold and cough all week) but it's so cold! My hands are freezing. DH is poorly too (IBS) so he's off sick today - so tempting to go and join him on the sofa with a film, lol!

Prob not the best place to ask, but does anyone know the best place to buy those big stackable plastic storage boxes with lids? We're having our loft converted and need to clear out the loft - need something tidy to put all our crap in! Also got bags full of baby clothes/nappies/toys accumulating, would be good to put them somewhere tidy until we've got the nursery decorated (I say decorated - it needs to be built first! :eek: )

Have a good day everyone

tesco do them i think there about five pounds but im not sure. or if you have a poundstretchers near you they do them aswel.

went to my mums yesturday and she has got the baby an adorable little blanket, i dont know what its called but its dressing gown material its the pinkest pink i have ever seen, and i nearly gave the housing association a heart attack today when i phoned up to pay ten pounds off my arrears, its only 48 arrears but they have been there for ages and i just havent had the money to pay it.

im all swollen up in my ankles and face today, if my face carries on being swollen i think i might have to phone the midwife and ask her advice, i have another scan next week and a GTT at the same time and a planning meeting in case baby has the same disease as dd2 so its 4 hrs.

normally hang around the food shopping/tesco glitches but I got a £5 off a £25 spend in Mothercare and thought you guys may like it.
It's only valid online until Sun 12th Feb. Enter code VJVJ.

I'm 7 weeks pregnant with my second child. First one is a boy who's almost 2 and a half. Saw the doc on Monday and my due date is 26th Sept (again...it's exactly the same due date as my DS from 2009). I hope they wont be sharing a birthday but have a 3 year age difference.

Also, buy the big plastic storage boxes in pound shops/B&M bargain etc. the supermarkets seems to charge silly prices.

yes you can put them in the dishwasher, however they wont be sterile unless you use the hot cycle or use the (i dont know if its milton) sterilising dishwasher tablets

Pelvic floors. As LC said a mix of long/short fast/slow is best.
To remember, choose something you do several times a day- drink tea, turn tv on, sit on the loo, and then assign this as your pf exercise trigger.Everything you do the thing, you do your exercise. Mine was stopping at red light!!!

On storage boxes, have tried matalan and supermarket ones and they went brittle over time. The best by far for proper storage were big ones from the laundry/storage area of ikea marketplace.
