    Oh....I saw your post and thought...ooooooh:j....but then :(

    I am up and dressed as we've just had a furniture delivery - at 7am!!!:eek: Now the day is just gonna drag even more!

    Got to make my choc chip cookies though - that will be the highlight of my day I expect!

    Its also so humid here - I am already hot and bothered with all the doors and windows open!!! Maybe that will work MrsJ - but I have no one to take it out on as OH has gone to work!!!! You are NOT allowed to queue jump!

    you know, apart from today, I have been wide awake from 5am. 5am!!! That is *not* allowed!! I woke up today at 6am

    choc chip cookies sound lovely! yum! If I wasn't so exhausted I'd nip out for some. Cookies are the one thing that I struggle with when baking.

    I bet that you both beat me to it! haha Mine just isn't for budging

    Aw, sorry to see you're still here snozberry (and I mean that in the nicest possible way!)

    I'm currently debating whether to phone the labour ward as baby seemed a lot quieter than usual last night. Though I've just had a flapjack and the sugar seems to have woken him up as he's had a little wriggle. I'll be taking DS to the childminder in a few minutes so can sit and concentrate on movements a bit better then.

    ASsuming I don't need to go dashing off to the hospital, today's plan is to make a raspberry and lemon curd cake and then meet DH for lunch:)

    Oh snoz, I was hoping things had happened for you then! Well I have had the grand total of four hours sleep, between ds, the dog and cramp(even in my knee!!) So feeling quite awful today, was supposed to be going out for coffee with friends but not feeling up to it.

    Cookies sound good Dida, make enough for all of us!

    Hope things are ok BB. If you have any orange juice in - shove some ice cubes in it and drink really quickly - apparently this should have baby breakdancing within half an hour or so I am told!

    The raspberry and lemon curd cake sounds yummy BB - someone posted a pic of a cake on facebook yesterday and I couldn't get cake out of my brain after that....and ended up eating 7 Areo biscuits!!!! (I didn't have any cake!). I can't get enough sweet stuff at the moment!

    COME ON BABIES! they seem to be enjoying keeping you all waiting at the moment!

    I had a crap nights sleep too. DS woke up yelling at 2.30am, then again at 5am having filled his nappy. He has started getting out of bed and wandering about now too, something he didn't do when we first took his cot bars down. We've had to lock his door a couple of times as I am scared of him getting into any cupboards he shouldn't do, but don't like having to do that at all :(

    Got my 30 week MW app in a couple of hours, so going to try and grab another hours zzz now.

    Labour vibes to all who need them, and BB hope all well with baby. Maybe he's just readying himself to launch into the world :D

    Thanks Dida, I've just downed a glass of OJ and also had a load of berries with my cereal, so this baby will be getting an almighty sugar rush in a few minutes!

    MV we put a gate on DS's door after we took the bars off the cot, to keep him in the room when he's supposed to be settling down to sleep. We open it when we go to bed so that he can come into us in the morning. He's got up in the night a couple of times recently but just comes in to us for a cuddle - I'm hoping he's not going to realise that he can get into the bathroom too. Can you put locks on the cupboards you don't want your DS to get into? Maybe if he realises there's no fun to be had if he gets up, he'll stay in bed.

    It isn't Easyjet who want the letter sparkles, it's to validate the travel insurance apparently.

    I'd check with your insurer - mine said as long as I'd not been told not to fly then they didn't need anything, it was Ryanair that want it from me. Currently trying to find out whether I'll be allowed knitting needles on my flight, I wish there was some clear guidelines somewhere!

    Apparently easyjet do need a letter though;
    Between the
    28th and 35th week (inclusive) of your
    pregnancy you can only fly with us if
    you have a medical certificate issued by
    a Doctor or Midwife stating that you are
    “fit to fly” and the number of weeks
    pregnant

    princesspinky I have my whooping cough vax next week so I can't help but I'll watch out for the signs!

    Just an FYI to you all - bikini waxes hurt more when pregnant, what's that about?! My beautician told me yesterday that she's pregnant as well which is lovely - she's engaged to my hairdresser too so I had them both asking me 100 questions, bless :D

    Is anyone else getting mega forgetful? I jumped out the car at the cash machine last night to lift money to get my nails done and left the keys in the ignition of the car :eek: Thankfully I was only 2 secs away and nothing happened anyway but I definately won't be telling OH about that. Plus the fact I then left my purse in the car and had to nip out after my nails were done and then realised I'd only lifted £10 and not £20 so I had to go to another machine - the nail tech must have thought I was well dodgy!!
