    Miss Money, so sorry to hear what you're going through - thinking of you and sending big ((hugs)). I don't really have any advice to offer as it's not a situation I've experienced, but please feel free to rant, vent and/or sob on here - we're all here to listen and support in any way we can x

    Elelyn, I started my leave 3 weeks before my due date (all 3 weeks were annual leave - my actual maternity leave started today on my due date). I was so ready to finish work by then, despite having a one-bus-door-to-door commute and the option of working from home whenever I needed to. So if you're suffering with aches and pain and also have a killer commute, it may well make sense to finish off early. Unless of course you have the option of working from home for a week or two? Like someone else said, I would suggest making sure you have some nice things planned - for my first week off, I had one activity planned for each day to get me out of the house. They were all nice things like lunch with a friend, a pregnancy massage etc. After 3 weeks off I'm now starting to get a bit bored, but hey.... Better enjoy a bit of laziness whilst I can!

    mishkanorman yep the oh does wht yours does... brews it all up. we wont speak now for at least 3 days and i will spend the evening s in my room as im "not welcome" in the living room!. and then he will try and act as if nothing has happened.

    thanks for listening to me though people :) it's helped somewhat. ive managed to make myself a ham toastie (looks like hes been to the shop) and ive eaten now. however.. and this is tmi... after eating the toastie i had a huge bh that went into my bowels :eek: and made me go to the loo... no more constipation!!

    I think your going into labour very soon,I'm sorry to say your OH sounds like a bully and you deserve better than that,are you scared of him?

    At least your not scared. I was petrified of my husband. I had to hide in room not cos he was annoyed at me but cos I couldn't guarantee that any conversation wouldn't set him off and he might hit me. It's not a nice way to live at allx
    love you lots like jelly tots :o

    no the worst he's going to do is shout. the thing is im not very confrontational... i dont "do" arguing. I just sit and cry which makes it worse somehow.
