    I saw two shooting stars last night
    I wished on them but they were only satellites
    Is it wrong to wish on space hardware
    I wish, I wish, I wish you'd care
  • Congrats, Pnq06!!! :j Feel free to add yourself to The List! x

    Ophie, of course we have no objection! :grin: x

    Yikes, getting near the top now!

    Bearing in mind we're having twins and unlikely to go full term, I reckon there's only another 15 or so births from that list before it's our turn!

    Everything's ready though (bag packed, nursery complete etc.) - I'm even starting to think that I'm ready for it too. Although I'm sure that statement will come back to haunt me.... :confused:

    I know, how scarey/exciting is it?!? I'm due 4 weeks today and am totally freaking out one minute then can't wait to meet my baby the next!

    Just checked your blog and, my, your wife has grown! :D I've been told twice today that I can't possibly be 8 months pregnant as I don't look big enough!!! :confused:

    I know, we love those weekly pics!

    Every week we say to ourselves "Nah, doesn't look like much growth this week", then compare the pics and are AMAZED!

    sarahmoon, Stop with the scrubbing floors and cleaning frenzy and chill out and relax! easier said than done i know but you must do for your bp etc to settle down.
    i have been waiting to get home and get on here to see if you were still here after the full moon!
    my babys head is 3/5th engaged and i will be havung a sweep 11th sept if no baby by then, which im hoping i dont get that far but arent we all!
  • Hi Emma, thats my due date!!! My first chance of a sweep would be the 12th Sept, which is my next appt. I'm still here lol, a bit calmer now, I had expected everything to be fine with the midwife but when she said about the temp and the bp I paniced a bit. I've to hand another sample in tomorrow and the midwife will come to the house on Friday and check my bp again, so hopefully everything will be fine then. Off for a long hot bath and then feet up fo Supernanny, I'll probably need her when I've got four kids lol.

    Here's hoping we go soon!!
    They took my signature away!!!! :confused:

    emma_b, and anyone overdue, near due date or a sweep has been mentioned to:
    Hi I am on baby number 5 and I wondered if you might try what I did with my last 2. Walked up a 100 steps(Beach where I live!) and drive on a bumpy unmade road twice. I did this with my last one a week befor due date and she arrived the following day, 8 days early. I swear by it. Do not for gods sake do the castor oil - apart from the fact it is said it can be dangerous(Don't know how) The midwife can actually tell that you have done it. Hope this helps
    .png.png.png.png.png
  • Hi Kelsi, the thing with the castor oil is that the baby could ingest it aswell causing it to poo before its born, if the baby swallows meconium then that is really quite dangerous. I wouldn't advise anyone to do it.

    I need to find 100 steps:rotfl: :rotfl:
    They took my signature away!!!! :confused:

    So, how does this head engaged thing work then :confused: I was 2/5th engaged last wk but didn't know what that meant. Have my antenatal tomorrow so will see what it is then.

  • I've been told twice today that I can't possibly be 8 months pregnant as I don't look big enough!!! :confused:

    and i seem to get shocked looks and rude comments because despite the fact that im measuring bang on for my dates everyone seems to think im too big to only be 7 months,
    "ohhh its a big baby then"
    "are you sure its not twins"
    "well i suppose you werent exactly 'thin' before were you"
    "and i thought from your size that you were almost due"

    I was a not unreasonable size 14 before pregnancy, maybe a 16 on a bad day as i had just given up smoking after 15 years and im pretty sure most people put on a few comfort pounds when going cold turkey from a life time habit,
    im not huge, im just carrying out the front....

    im seriously dreading the school run starting again and getting asked 50 times when im due and getting this reaction all the time
    im tempted to start telling all these 'well meaning' people to f**k off.
