Oh clarets poor you, I feel bad enough now let alone in 12 days time like you. Hopefully it will be soon for you keep bouncing on that ball. I really can't stand the smell of cocoa butter I think it's because i used it last pregnancy and felt really sick to start with, so I think it triggers that in my head. Have literally done nothing today, have run the Hoover round but that's it. Really wish OH was home. 2 more hours and I can put Roo to bed and go to bed myself!

I'm OK, thanks missymoo. I really shouldn't complain. I have no aches, pains or niggles like most people. In fact the only issue I have is when I turn over in bed at night it pulls my stomach a bit. Today would have 'fitted in' purely in a practical way. DD1 and 2 are both busy and out of the way. Any time in the next couple of days now would be 'ideal' lol. DD1 starts her exams on Tuesday. At least OH gets to watch the cup final. As a big city fan I don't think he would have been too impressed had he been stuck at the hospital, either that or you can guess what would have been on the tv in the labour room! Put your feet up and REST. X

Lol clarets, it's funny how we have preferred time of arrival when it's easier etc. last sunday would have been ideal but I'd settle with next Friday or Saturday obv if I could choose lol. Lol at your OH and the cup final. It would be somewhat of a distraction for labour I guess?!

OH has ordered a Moses basket?! Not the one I was looking at but much nicer, far more expensive but he's paying so? It is lovely, one of the snug ones. Still need a changing bag, hate the one we have, I want a leather one but god they're expensive, even second hand. I'm Wondering whether a normal handbag would do the job....it would obv have to be a big one... Any thoughts?

I reckon a large handbag would be fine. In hindsight I could have just used my handbag as its huge. Only thing about a leather one is you can't bung it in the washing machine like some changing bags. We had a little accident with a sippy cup not closed properly in my changing bag so I just emptied it and put the whole lot in the washing machine.

I keep telling people I'd love to have the gestational period of a dog as its about 16 weeks!! Or when I'm moaning I keep thinking it could be worse an elephant has a gestational period of 22 mths!!! :rotfl:Yes I do know loads of useless crap!!

missymoo81

Lol Lola! God 22 months then giving birth to an elephant, can you imagine!! Actually thinking about it, id rather not!
Keep thinking something is going to happen today, as I feel different from normal and had a few niggly pains, but I think it's just tiredness and wishful thinking.

Hmmm think I'll look into handbags, have never in 18 months washed the one we have.... So hopefully it'll be ok.

missymoo81

Omg cross is not the word! OH has just informed me it's Saturday he comes home not Friday, a in 5 days before the baby's due. I know it's only a day, but I'm gutted, I've really really struggled today with being tired and feeling like crap and knowing that on top of what I already thought I was dealing with I've got a whole extra day, am so cross and upset I could cry.

Sorry for the moan, just so upset.

Just popping in to see how you are doing claretsgirl No sign of bambino yet then.

God I remember eating 3 pineapples in the hope of moving DD - all I ended up with was a very sore mouth :rotfl:

Fingers crossed for you! Get yourself a nice hot curry! Guess I'll never know which "hot" thing got my baby moving

Hugs to those feeling miserable and tired. Those last few weeks and days are such hard work xxxxxxxxxxxx

I got this (with a 25% off code) to use as a changing bag. Loads of compartments and I figured the nylon would be good.

Just popping into say hi! Hope everyone is having a good weekend! We are off out for the day tomorrow as its our anniversary, so hoping it won't rain!

I've just got a new bag its from miatui, they are classed as handbags but fantastic changing bags, so much so I may have brought two! I have a 10% discount code if anyone wants it. They are waterproof on the inside which is fab, plus loads of pockets!

Oh missy thats crappy, I don't blame you for being upset, I would be

Xx

Thanks for thinking about me chonorla - still nothing!
I guess I'll just have to wait now. Tried everything, and I thought number three would just fall out! Just feeling a bit tired now. I'll hopefully get a good nights sleep and see what tomorrow brings. X
