    Thanks cookinmummy!! I've been the same, people have been saying, is the baby STILL not here when it wasn't even due yet! I am going to hold firm and hopefully the little thing will decide to appear soon. The funny thing is that since the baby has dropped I am actually more comfortable - my hip and back pain has virtually gone. So if it wasn't for feeling pressured I'd be fine! :)

    I just like to overcook my eggs :rotfl:

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Aww Rose80, you must have a very comfortable little baby there so let it come out when it wants. It means you get an extra couple of days rest anyway - before all hell breaks loose!

    I got the newletter email from Lux box saying that boxes will be sent out next week - which makes it the beginning of July. No sign of JB here.

    When is SSB due? I can't work it out from my last box because I got one of the late ones through the Jubilee sub.

    I know it does seem very comfy PB, maybe I should start being nasty like poking it and playing loud annoying music!

    Can't believe how long JB is taking! Anyway SSB is coming in early July apparently, not long to wait for us Jubillee'ers who had a late June box :)

    Apparently in THAT book, he gently flagellates her pregnant belly with a cat'o'nine tails - you could threaten baby with that later :rotfl:

    still no JB for me either. i hate how bad they are at delivery!

    I'm reading 50 shades atm, i kept seeing people reading it on the train and i thought id see what the fuss was about lol. it is very badly written though. i do love the male reaction to it though, a lot of my male friends quite clearly don't know how to react to all their gfs and female mates all basically saying "yes i read this stuff. yes i enjoy it. yes i like a bit of bdsm, i wouldn't mind a rich dominating sugar daddy". they keep referring to news items as "fifty shades of sh*te" (thats the reaction to the footie :rotfl:) and other intelligent variations on the theme and pointing out that it started as twilight fan fiction as though a twilight association would put us all off :rotfl:

    Baby It will come out when ITs good and ready, the best place for IT is where IT is being nurtured by ITs mummy.

    Enjoy the peace whilst it lasts as it'll soon be over once IT arrives.

    Ignore the pressure, they are just being silly and not thinking of the stress it puts you under.

    Rather alot of ITs there just for baby IT when IT finally decides to grace us with ITs presence.

    Thanks Gx2! You are right, the staff at the hosp are stressing me out with it all and making me feel like I'm making decisions which are risky for the LO (IT!) when I would do absolutely anything it took to get it here safe and sound, which is what I feel like I am doing by hanging on! Here's to the baby feeling like sometime in the next week is good :)

    No JB here either. LIB box on its way and at this rate will probably appear before JB. Still haven't peeked at spoilers, so no idea what'll be in it when it arrives. Maybe tomorrow.

    SSB and last Amitee to come. Not sure if I'll bother with next month's GB as the stress of will I/won't I get the good/bad box is dampening my enthusiasm for it. Cancelled LB and not sure about Amarya as although good products not enough for my liking.

    Anyway, off to bed now. Night all, including beauty baby IT X

    You sound like you are making very good choices. Only you know how comfortable you, and baby feels, so try to relax, and not let them bother you. I remember with both of mine, feeling like I had to do as I was told. I had both by elective Ceasarian, a week before they were due, and it was too early, especially in my sons case. He really wasn't happy at being disturbed.

    Go with what you feel's right, and enjoy your last few days of pregnancy.
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    my middle son was two weeks late and weighed 10lbs 8 oz:eek:but was actually the easiest birth as the hospital overdid the pethadine and I was really out of it:rotfl:funniest thing was when i took him home the next day the nurse on reception asked if I had brought him in for his 3 month check,he is now 23 and 6 foot 3:):):)
