    Hypno - that's awful! :)

    Feeling a little better now, but am not sure if the waves of sickness are now the bug or just pregnancy! I had another little surprise when I woke up this morning and got over the whole illness shock, to discover my boobs are HUGE! Well, for me anyway lol. I'm now sat here pulling att he sides of my bra - I surely can't need new bras already! Not very MSE/DFW so far this pregnancy lark. Hmmm...am going to try to make it as cheap as possible - so far have only spent on pg tests (and unfortunately they weren't the cheap ones from ebay) but need to get some vitamins too - they are cheap in bodycare so will go in later when I get the pics of william for his passport.

    OH's brother is paying for us to go on holiday with them which is lovely - was justa haven hol but has now changed to a south of France hol!! So we will have to pay petrol, and buy William a passport, but apart from that it'll be v cheap :D Fabulous. WOn't be able to bloody drink though ;)

    Feeling a little more cheery this afternoon - the walk to Tumble tots and back helped I think. Now cooking meringues - will post a pic, but they aren't looking too good so far - no melting sugar or anything :(

    HI Sea. Wow that's fantastic about the holiday! Lucky you!

    Sympathies re the bra. I remember buying loads of bras when I was pregnant, you seem to change size every often. Keep the packaging and you may well be able to sell them on ebay afterwards if they don't get a lot of wear.

    Just a quicky - Avon bras are very comfy, wash well, the basic t-shirt bra is £5, gives you a great cleavage and they're ever so slightly padded (fab for sore boobs).

    I'm not an Avon lady by the way lol.

    Well, hope all are well. I'm off to my mum's today - first have to make that cake - and so won't be on for a little while. Feeling really rough actually - tired and sick :( But all good - at least I have symptoms and it's not a figment of my imagination lol!

    Got so much to do today - arghhh! Have to go shopping once I get to my mums and get all the stuff for the party and then begin to make it all as well as making sure that I appear lively and oh so not pregnant - hmmm. I hope she guesses really as I hate keeping it from her. But I won't tell her as it'll spoil her weekend. Will tell her once her birthday etc is over.

    Anyway, better go get on with the cake.
    The little cake toppers I bought from Ebay haven't arrived so that is v annoying.

    This cake is now the bane (bain?) of my life - I hate it. It's gone all wrong as I was impatient as was meant to set off 2 HOURS ago and now hte icing has all melted arghhhhhhhhh. Looks like a strange featureless teletubby. Not like a hill at all. Someone remind me to NEVER make a cake EVER again.

    ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  • Sea I'm sure it will be fine - perhaps if you've time you'll do an IA and post a photo of it?? Have a lovely weekend.

    Oh Sea.....all I can say is that in time you will come to laugh at the 'featureless teletubby' cake....try not to stress too much about it, one day it will be a funny story to tell your grandkids.

    Hope you've managed to sort it and are now on your way.
