Glad all is well Rups.

The bag I ordered for my hospital things arrived just now I was going to use my small suitcase but we will be away five of the next eight weekends so I needed something else. Anyway I bought this one after spending the morning comparing prices and sizes of bags. This one was one of the biggest and also one of the cheapest. It's got lots of room and anything that won't fit can go in DH's bag with his stuff

morning ladies

we actually have some sun here today woo hoo!

moneypenny21 - i have been desperate to clean the house properly for a few weeks now but only just finished work so didnt have the time. i am not going to do as much as i did yesterday as made my back sore.

twinkle - i worked till 37+4 - luckily last few weeks i did 3/4 day weeks as it was getting too much for me. if i had the benefit of hindsight i would have finished at 36 weeks. i am on my second day of mat leave and worried baby will come early and i wont have time to clean lol

Student_Mrs - Sorry to hear hubby is getting stressed, doesnt help much as this is when you need him most. i am sure it is just nerves, at least he is talking to you as i have to drag problems out of my DH most of the time.

Rups - glad you have been reassured:)

plan for me today is get my business books up to date, listen to hypotherapy CD, some cleaning, browsing shops then meeting friend for coffee and cake.

Emsbet I'm really excited, but a bit nervous too. Can't believe only eight weeks left :eek:
Rups glad all is well
Ikkle please can I come for tea. I'm just doing toasted sandwiches as will be very tight for time. You sound like you're always very busy.
Cakes good luck for this pm

Am having my scan on Monday morning just in time for the consultant appt on Tuesday. I'll be interested to see the position of baby, his head was low down at the 4d scan. He seems so active all the time so I wonder if his head is still low. It feels like I have a bum at the bottom of my right ribs, well a big round lump.

Well I've emptied the dishwasher, prepped rhubarb for crumble, hard boiled eggs for OH's butties, had brunch, done one wash load and done some general tidying. Wow that does sound like a lot......for once
Time for another cuppa me thinks!!

It'll still hurt to do those things but you'll get to a point where you are fed up of not doing anything that you do it anyway. I've taken to just doing one thing a day. Today I will be cleaning the bathroom as I didn't do it yesterday. I've also started planning meals that are quick to cook so I'm not standing for too long.
Washing up is becoming an increasingly difficult chore as I'm getting too big to reach the bowl without bending over

I don't stand up lol. I have my chair in the kitchen and I sit on that to do it all, I'm lucky that we have a dishwasher too so I can empty and load that while in my chair. If I had to stand I would have absolutely no chance because my back spasms after 30 seconds leaning over the worktop.

i need to find out the details of these 4d scans as DH doesnt believe me or says its rubbish. hmm time to use Google.

Emsbet I love the starry bag. A really reasonable price too. OH mentioned starting to pack my hosp bag the other day. Maybe he knows something I don't. should start putting together a list of stuff. OH has food, drinks and DVD player on his!
Rups I can't stand for long either. I've got a stool for the kitchen now so I can rest. Although I'm itching to be cleaning tidying etc, it's easy for me to overdo it and then be stuck in bed for a day or so.

I'm so full after my brunch, but I really fancy some cake!!

Rups google ultrababy Watford to read more on 4d scans. I'm not sure why they're 4d not 3d though either :-S

hmm hopefully i can pass on washing up then and ask DH. hehehe...i tried cleaning the bathroom on my knees and struggled. we need a dishwasher for sure as with DH and now his brother, the dishes get used up like anything! might make a curry tonight if can be bothered!

i want cake too now.. aggghhh
