    5 hours since OH went to watch football and visit family. Text him half hour ago to see if he was on his way... rang me just now to say he's leaving in 5min. So I've got my homemade veg soup on warming.

    I've done 2 loads of washing and popping them in the tumble in batches as it's only small. Also tidied the kitchen draws and put away then washed more dishes. Had a shower too. Emptied a box of knick knacks... put all the rubbish out... probably wash my new dishes before he makes it home too.

    Best bit is we've gotta go food shopping when he's back because he wouldn't leave me a list and I won't be home to do shopping tomorrow. I could let him go but he'll only pick up rubbish.

    lol somehow dh picks up some stuff and not all from the list! i always wonder why he does that? when i put bathroom stuff, he never ever brings it and if it is cleaning products, i like the dettol spray as it doesnt stink and then he came back with a cheaper option. i got so mad. bless him for trying to save but have told him that am struggling with smells but he doesnt get it.

    just thinking of doing some online shopping from boots as dont want to go into town and buy lots of stuff to carry with me. :)

    My OH is more into getting crisps, biscuits, chocolates... god knows what else... w/e catches his eye. I'm starting to keep reciepts so I can show him how much he picks up just for himself.
  • Hey everyone! I've just realised today how worn out I get very quickly doing things around the house. Decided to help DH when he was decorating the kitchen, I was cleaning, mopping and did a little bit of painting and my god I am exhasuted and my back is now telling me off, LOL! I actually quite enjoyed myself potting around doing bits and bats though when we move onto the next room I'll take it a bit more easy.

    The best bit was when I ws trying to squeeze into a small gap and I realised that with my bump I wouldn't fit! :rotfl:

    I am absolutely starving, having a pizza for tea with some chips from the chippy!

    Hugs Bamama! Hope your DH appreciates what you've done whilst he's been out.

    Happy due date dizsiebubba :j:j:j.

    Hello everyone!

    As Marta said, I want my OH to feed our little one just to give me more space and also because my OH wants to do it!

    I will express from the start and I will try my best to follow CLB routine.

    Hope you all have a nice weekend and good luck to our boldies :)

    Aida, what is the CLB routine? I'm expecting out first and I had planned to bf and express so DH can also help out with feeds and because he really wants to!

    Marta, I hadn't heard about waiting for 6 weeks either

    CLB = Content little baby is a book by Gina Ford and she advise to express and bottle feed the baby at the last "meal" of the day and she encourage partners to do so. Usually if you master her routine, your baby should sleep from 11pm to 6-7am :D.

    Her routine is quite controversial as she is quite regimental but reading her book twice I'm 100% I'll give it a go as soon as I give birth.
