I can't wait to not be pregnant, these last couple of weeks have been really hard and they aren't going to get any easier until baby is here. So just taking it one day at a time now and trying to encourage baby along naturally.

Just my thinking too Sparkles and if I remember rightly we're pretty close due dates I think?

so funny to read you ladies talking about how you can't wait to not be preg anymore. I on the other hand can't wait to be properly preggy with a mahoosive bump! I'm 21 weeks and still so nervy with a little lump for a bump!

Yup due on the 30th June but hopefully only being allowed to go over until the 2nd due to all the complications I've been having.

Feeling very down about it all today and have had to admit to myself that I'm really not very well, hoping midwife can get me some medication this afternoon at a clinic rather than hospital so I can get through the weekend

If you don't think you'll be sterilising much, you can get reusable microwave steriliser bags. I think you can use each one twenty times or so? I had a box of 3 and never used them all up.

I remember that feeling! It was great up until around 35 weeks (you get lots of attention and people worrying about you....!) then you just feel uuggh as its not just the bump you have to deal with - its the not being able to easily get off the sofa/chair, not being able to get into your car as someone else has parked too close, the aches/pains in legs/back/virtually everywhere else, not being able to do simple things without dropping/forgetting/losing balance.

Its almost as though you grow old over the course of a few weeks (but you know its temporary). Towards the end, things become a real effort - especially if you go over-due as you have to put things on hold as you never know when baby will arrive.

On a brighter note - it has given me the chance to bake - these are the cookies and BB's absolutely scrummy cake (that I made 2 of!) yesterday!

That's the last time I do a Sainsbury's trip on my tod. Putting DS into the trolly seat (no easy feat..he weighs a ton' I felt a very horrible twinge

Hope I haven't done any damage

I'm at the feeling old stage already!!! I'm dropping things all over the show, even broke a cup in work yesterday, and I have to get everyone to pick things up for me in case I land on my face. Compared to my other 2 pregnancies I've been feeling brilliant right up until the last few weeks but all the aches and pains have kicked in very suddenly and I have been in agony. I was left with a lot of leg problems following a car accident as a child, had hip operated on as a teenager, pelvis problems due to previous pregnancies (was on crutches from 20 weeks with youngest) and I broke my knee just under 3 years ago so I've got a lot going on anyway.

Those look DELICIOUS!!!!

MV, hope you're ok and the twinge doesn't become more painful x

My sister was at her 20 week scan today and everything looks fab!

I made those cookies today and they are yummy! They are also very light. Once I pass the human zombie phase I'm going to play around with different flavours

Congrats bigbird, hope you and baby Oliver are keeping well :-) all the best for tomorrow snoz, hope the induction goes smoothly. Afm had my 38week appt on wed and baby isn't engaged yet! Ah well just have to wait and see. I have a sweep booked for 26th on due date provided i don't go before which is prob unlikely seeing as baby hasn't started to descend!

Dida those cookies and cake look amazing!
