    I'm not 100% sure but I've heard it's good for you and lots of people were putting them in their baskets so I thought I'd give it a go ;)

    Never been one to follow the crowd and these fad diets are overrated. Just you wait til everyone hears about chocolate. It will take off worldwide. I just have this feeling!!

    Are you wanting more than one Snoopster?

    I like the bag. Will you be putting OH in it aswell?

    Oh yes - I would like 2 or 3, but I think we might have pushed our luck with this one to be honest!

    I laughed out loud - OH thinksI amcracking up when I read about him going in my bag!!!

    I just never know whn to stop packing stuff so figured a big changing bag was necessary! At least then I can pop in the kitchen sink for when I need it lol! xx

    Emsbet how's your 17 week bump looking? I'm 17+4 now and STILL looking like I've eaten too much cake (which is also the case)! I'm sure people look at me and think god she's got a podgy tummy. Looking forward to the day when I'm noticeably pregnant! Wearing one pair of maternity trousers and everything else is still normal clothing!

    Ladies who work in an office, I need some tips for getting through the day. My back is killing me! How got some cushions to take in tomorrow to try. Am thinking a footrest might go down well too. Anything else I could try?

    I'd bypass the kitchen sink and go straight for the bath. There's definitely room!!!

    Depending on the outfit and time of day I range from looking like I might possibly be pregnant to looking like I've eaten all the chocolate the world has to offer :)

    I've started taking pictures at two week intervals (so far have 14 and 16 week photos). Don't appear to have gotten any bigger but it defenitely looks rounder. I might post the pics later if I'm feeling brave

    I think I have you all beat on age for first child as I'm 33. I was told that in my area they don't consider you to be an "older" mum until you get to 40-ish.

    Yes, I am sure about tips, but also listening to them giving birth at 33 weeks scared me out that I don't have much time to organise the house, sort out the wardrobes, hire the cleaner, tidy up the garden, etc... I am 30 weeks on Wednesday. It is scary if I only have 3 weeks left.... No, I am sure I will go to 38 weeks! I can do that just once more to prove my mother wrong!

    I thought I was guranteed to have early babie, as in pre 35 weeks but i'm still going so you never know, you might just prove your mother wrong after all.

    Hi lovely. Just sticking my nose round the door of the old haunt to see how things are going. Where abouts in London are you? There are 3 of us in SW london who meet for a walk nearly every week now..

    I'm in East London but a lot of my friends live in SW/SE, where do you guys usually meet?

    I got my office chair replaced to one with a lot more back support. I also got them to give me a footstool. Before getting those, i found a cushion or soft material (i.e scarf etc) rolled up and put at the base of my spine helped. You might also want to consider visiting a physio who might give you some back support.

    I was once a young ornithologist Snoop and it's illegal to keep a Robin in a baby changing bag!!! That was the 1st thing i was taught. X

    Safeound - how are you today?
