Oooo I ve got such a craving for dairylea and crusty bread now!! May have to pop over to Sainsburys on my lunch break and get some. Yum!

I want to have a look at the sleepsuits in the TU clothing event anyway, after all the advice on here I am hoping to find a couple of neutral ones with inbuilt sratch mitts.

Re nurseries, ours is having a Very Hungry Caterpillar theme Its my fave childrens book and huby likes it too. We ve just got white walls and furniture but have got wall stickers and bits with the hungry caterpillar on. I ve also found a cushion for my nursing chair on ebay. Cant wait to buy that when I get paid tomorrow. Hubby also came home with a giant cuddly hungry caterpillar to put on the shelf the other day. So cute!

Sainsburys always have the clothing discount on, so don't worry if you miss it.

I am team yellow so still can't take advantage of it lol as got enough neutral things.

Very hungry caterpillar, awww that is a great theme.

11 working days left for me after today!!!! Cannot wait, as the short walk from the carpark to the office is killing me, does anyone else feel like the baby is going to fall out?!?! I have to sometimes hold my bump and wddle like an elephant!!

Hope everyone else is having a good day

Morning everyone, just thought i should check in.

Congratulations Van!

I can't remember who mentioned it but someone was talking about one foot swelling up more than the other. Mine do that too, my right foot is always fatter than the left when they bloat. I don't know if it's because my SPD mainly effects my left side so i use the right more or what but i'm not worried about it just hoping for more foot rubs from DH

Can't wait to meet our little miss 3rd after boldies so it's getting closer eek! Saw midwife on Tuesday (38+1) and all is well, next appointment will be at 40+1 and she has said if i want her to she will do an internal and if it's possible a sweep. Am of course hoping i don't get to the appointment and baby arrives before then but it's good to know what happens next. Not sure how long they will leave me if i need to be induced (hoping not too long as my birthday is exactly 14days after due date and i'd rather not be in labour on my birthday )

Maternity leave is still boring! DH has kindly set up a free lovef!lm trial but i just can't sit around all day watching TV, dog is still supposed to be on bed rest for another 2 weeks so only allowed 5 minutes walk per day which doesn't really get us very far. Still out for lunch today with friends which will be nice, trying not to go out just for something to do as no doubt i'll just spend pennies on things i don't need

Hope everyone is well & labour vibes to the boldies (only 11 days until i'm one!!! still doesn't seem real)

Congratulations Van!!! :j

We decided not to have a theme as such for Elvis's bedroom, we went with some wall stickers that were a little girly but not too girly IYKWIM - I am determinded not to have a Barbie pink explosion in the house in coming years!!

Well blood pressure is back down Shame the swelling isnt DD is fine, she is eating jaffa cakes and being a monkey..... back to school 2moro! I miss my bump like mad when baby is here, as much as i moan about not being able to eat properly because of it! I seem to get dinner down me every day atm as normally gravy etc would land on my plate, i cant physically lean over my plate any more!! haha!!!
Darkphaery I`m very jealous, my midwife wont attempt a sweep until at least 40+7 and i wont see her until 40+8!
Lola, hope ur last few days at work go nice and quickly!!! My baby will fall out, its number 4, so like the black hole of calcutta down there hahaha! I`m going to sneeze/pass wind and baby will pop out

Have been having loads of cramping since last night, like period pains, but stronger than what i`ve been having all thru pregnancy. Def not braxton hicks either. And def not regular enough or strong enough to be thinking summat is happening!!!! Come on baby lets get a wriggle on xxx

Icey - very nice!!!! I was looking at those stickers, and might be getting some myself!

I am back from hospital. They didn't do the bloods, just increased the iron to 3 tablets a day and will repeat the blood test in 4 weeks. I will not be having glucose test, as I don't meet their criteria for one. With my pain in the right side of the bump, not to worry, probably just the ligaments stretching (I am sure it is not, as the pain is there constantly, and has been for the last 10 weeks), leg cramps - drink more water and no caffeine (don't have any anyway).

Consultant said not too push too hard, and if I feel I need to slow down, think about reducing hours at work (not sure how that is possible!!!!) and work from home (I already work from home most of the time, only getting to the office once or twice a day). I decided I will see how feel in the next couple of weeks and if I am tired/in pain, ask GP to sign me off. My most important job now is to be pregnant and give the best to the babies. As for the hip/SPD pain, consultant said we should try and arrange for me to see physio again, and see what else they can do.

Got my place at mothercare event tonight!!!! I also looked earlier ant the dresser/changer units, and there is one in mothercare that I like, so might be getting that lateron (not today!!!). It is this one:

Dresser/Changer



And just checked how many days I have left - not counting today, 23 working days (if I take my remaining 3 days of holidays)
