    TMI alert!!! :p Went for a sweep this morning but my cervix wasn't favourable. Still too hard (???). She could feel the baby's head though so he's in the right place. Booked in for another go next week and if worst comes to worst will be sent for induction a week on Sunday. :o I'm just spending the days relaxing and enjoying doing nothing much but it's just awkward now. Bump is so big and hard that I can only feel comfy sat really reclined or bouncing on my gym ball. Sleep isn't going too well because I'm too uncomfortable! Can't go out with OH on an evening because he's working! That said, he's booked a half day today because he's just soooo ill today :p so will be home in 20 minutes... I may not have *my* baby yet but getting *a* baby! :rotfl:

    Wish I'd thought to give people the wrong due date Kavics! :o

    Sounds like you've had a good day with Gracie. You'll both sleep well after that! :)

  • Ooh poor you Birdie, sounds uncomfy.

    Grace clearly has excellent taste, I've just rediscovered pears and they are wonderful. OH is bored of me going on about how tasty they are.

    Wishing Ryder a Happy Birthday and Happy Due Date Birdie! Hopefully the little man will make an appearance at some point in the next couple of days.

    Went to a wedding fair yesterday and fell in love with a dress. Here behold the first Dress of The Day for a while:

    Found it very hard to keep my composure with DF standing there, but it was so pretty in real life. Will definitely be keeping a look out for something similar when it comes to actually trying things on.

    That...model, looks creepy as hell.
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    Oh, I just assumed it *was* a doll! Very creepy if that's her actual face :rotfl:

    Fingers crossed for movement soon Birdie xx

    Ruby that dress is beautiful! Really really lovely! Hurrah for the return of DOTD! Cinny - I think deserts of the day is definitely a go-er :rotfl: It was our 6 month wedding anniversary yesterday (got told at work that wasn't a thing, but it definitely is a thing right?)

    Birdie I hope baby bird makes an appearance soon for you. I've been stalking you on here, Twitter and FB so I apologise! Would you mind PMing me your address when you have a sec...? I have a little something for you.

    Went for my MRI results appointment today (just routine) and everything was A-OK so feeling pretty chipper - had been a bit irrationally worried so glad it's all ok.

    I wouldn't say being worried was irrational at all Shrimpy, I would have been! Glad everything is in the clear :)

    6 months of being married is a thing, and if it isn't just make it a thing! If it was 6 month of a new relationship when you're over the age of 17 and you're making a big deal I would judge.

    I thought that model was super pretty! Her make up is on point, idc if it's photoshop her cheekbones are killing it. It does, however, make me uneasy how closely stood she is to those stairs and I don't think she knows.

    Glad everything is a ok Shrimpy :).

    6 months is definitely a thing, I made a deal out of it anyway! :)

    Oh now I'm worrying about the poor model taking a step backwards and falling! Can we find out if she's OK?! ;)

    Glad all went well at the appointment Shrimpy. Totally normal to be worried which means you need to do something nice to celebrate the good result! :) Congratulations on your half wedding anniversary too! :T

    Still hanging on here. I'd had a feeling for months that it'd be today but not feeling a single thing so I was clearly wrong! OH wants it to be tomorrow and most friends/family are saying Friday because it's Valentine's day. Just don't know though! :o
