    Morning!

    Opto, that's a cute bump, I wouldn't say too big, your back looks arched a little so perhaps it's how you're stood?

    I was back in stretchy pants by 8wks with my 2nd but then my first was still not a year old at that stage :eek:. I did get bigger with my second, and she was 1.5lb less than DS. Every scan I had she was stretching her legs out, right on my bladder too :mad: she was breech until right at the end.

    It's all very exciting, though, really very pleased for you!

    We've been up since 6.30 yuk so tots are having a breakfast picnic and watching "cloud babies" while I have a coffee and return to being human.

    Need to pack kiddies stuff as they are going to granny and gramps later, after our play date. Tomorrow I'm driving to Cheshire and staying over for my friends 40th party! Am going to take my swimmies as the hotel has a pool and spa, so might spend the afternoon there...

    Still haven't found my DVD :( it's not in the box in the loft. So my plan when I get back from dropping the tots off is to sort the gibble mountain atop the garage cupboard. I have a pile of DH DVDs that I'd taken to the hospice for him, so perhaps it's in there. I know I took it as we watched it, but I thought I'd moved it and watched it at home since... Maybe not.

    If its not there I've no idea. Hmmm. Now can't remember if I bought 2 copies and maybe my mum has one I can back up???

    OP that's a tiny bump I went from a size 8 to a size 20 when pg with ds1! I also went from said 20 to a size 10 in 10 days so I wouldn't worry about it!

    Piggers are you pg? You never said! Does I need 2 car seats for return journey home ?

    bossy sending finding vibes to you in the hope DVD will reappear very soon

    optimum, i was sort of the other way with mine, i did get a nice bump but chucked up for england, i always ended up lighter at my 6 week check than i was at the start of my pregnancy. The bump seemed to feed off the rest of me my arms and legs got thinner as bump grew. the amount of choccie i ate was unbelievable to try and put on weight:D. thinking about it maybe im not too old to have another if it shifts a bit now LOL:rotfl::rotfl:
    i shouldnt joke really i would be like:eek::o:eek: if that did happen at my age and i think the kids would go mental. dont think DH would mind as the funny thing is when we used to head count we both always felt like someone was missing.

    HHC anyone ive got to shift and do something

    Stil no DVD. Am starting to get upset now. I've checked:

    DVD pile in garage that I've been meaning to magpie...
    DVD boxes in LR that we're keeping
    Photo box in LR where things get shoved
    Drawers under TV ditto
    Memory box in top of my wardrobe and surrounding shelf
    Bottom of wardrobe in case it fell down
    Drawers under bed
    Bedside cabinets
    Wedding box in loft
    DH "stuff" box in loft

    My last hope is the DR cabinet, although I have checked the drawers, and can't see how it would be in there, but off I go...

    ETA will also pull LR drawers right out just in case it's behind / under...

    Ring your mum to see if she's got a back up copy then go back to looking.
    Any chance that there are 2 DVD's in 1 case?

    Flying- nails filed, eyebrows plucked, dry bits moisturised and DDs shoes polished !

    That's some beauty routine!

    Went to a Dior make-up demo last night - it cost £10, but I probably drank that much wine...;);). Then I got £10 off a product (bargain) - and I won a spot prize worth about £100! (A nail polish and a bottle of Miss Dior eau de toilette!!)

    Then we went out to Frankie and Bennys for tea!

    That's used up all my luck for this year.....

    I can't even find an empty box, but yes, I've called mum and she has one :T I will borrow and back up to hard drive I think, and maybe copy to another disc.

    No doubt it will turn up shortly after... ;)

    Feel much better now cue tears of relief.
