    Just seen this M&S maternity bra offer on HotDeals. Chocolate coloured might not be to everyone's taste, but for £2 delivered......!

    I bought that bra at the weekend, in the size I had just been measured in and its massive so be prepared to get one thats far too big if you order it.

    Re pics - we photocopied ours to give out to parents and close family. The original is in the back of my book but will be transferred to envelope in a scrapbook for protection.

    Got my bloods back and everything is all clear (which I knew really but its nice to have it in writing:p )

    Going to MCare with Hubbles at lunchtime - think I better leave cc in drawer...

    I've been doing the rubbing tummy, holding back thing, especially in the scrum to get on the train at night :p hasn't worked so far - in fact I got elbowed in the ribs last night:mad:

    Mothercare is dangerous! The clothes are too cute and too expensive. I managed to resist a very cute white cardi for about £10, which I just find too much to pay for one thing for a newborn, and got a lovely little fleece off ebay for £3 instead yay :)

  • Congratulations to all those who have found out that they are expecting and hope everything is ok for everyone else...especially those who are ready to pop!!!
    I was due yesterday and am still here although the baby feels like it has dropped a bit now.
    Just been out to the shops and everyone wants to know when I am due, however they always act shocked when they found out it was yesterday...like I should be tucked up in bed or something!!
    Especially when they find out it is my third baby...I think they expect me to cough it out in front of them!!
    Need to have this baby soon though cos I am gonna end up the size of a house the way I have been eating the last few days. I think now that the baby has dropped there is actually room for food in my tummy instead of feeling full after 2 or 3 mouthfuls so I am making up for lost time!!
    I hated going to weddings. All the grandmas would poke me saying "You're next". They stopped when I started doing it to them at funerals :p
  • hiya jennywren - good on you for being out and about - are you touring the supermarkets in the hope that your waters will break whilst in the store ;)

    Anyone know who gives the best gifts to ladies who go into labour whilst shopping :D


    We should put together a list of things that are supposed to bring on labour so you can try them all...(as can we all when we get there!)

    I'll start with the obvious:

    Hi jenny - good luck with the birth when it happens.

    my additions to the list are:
    a good, but not too strenuous walk
    raspberry leaf tea
    book an appointment you cannot possibly miss - that'll do it :roll:
