    I don't get woken up by them, but they do keep me awake at night sometimes. She sometimes objects to me sleeping on one side or the other, and i have to roll over before she'll stop prodding me :P

    We've been lucky to have plenty of second hand baby clothes come our way- I'll sort them over Christmas and look at buying to fill any gaps in the jan sales. We've only bought a couple of outdoor suits, one sleep suit and a couple of vests ourselves so far! Hubby bought back two baby vests with planes on and a navy blue fleecy pram-suit from the states. He also found a nice American football tshirt for my dads Christmas pressie too so I am very pleased with that (I do nearly all the Christmas shopping every year!)

    Stinky cold is hanging around and am off work today. Was a proper insomniac last night, ended up listening to Buddhist chanting on iPod to send me off to sleep after getting up twice. Also had heartburn last night for the first time this pregnancy. Third trimester feels very real now, feeling enormous and not too far away from meeting our baby. Will be 33 weeks tomorrow.

    Best wishes everyone x

    Has anyone bought a gro bag at a reduced price or seen any deals?

    I like the fact you can get really thin ones for our hot bedrooms. But they're £30 which is double the price of a normal sleeping bag so wondering if anyone sells it cheaper?

    I got a m&p one in tk maxx the other day for £16. Not sure whether its a special one for hot rooms, but was half the full price.


    Jealous of all you ladies buying lots of lovely pink or blue outfits! As much as I love keeping our bean team yellow, it would be nice to go mad in all these sales I keep seeing pop up. May wonder over to the gap website for a browse now.... or is it just in store? Oh, just re read, have I missed it! :(

    TL I don't think I'm getting kicks waking me up either. Although I do lie awake every night feeling the kicks before I go to sleep, never fails to bring me a smiles! Bean was going mad on the way into work this morning, obviously enjoying my driving!

    Still cant believe I'm on the "Big" thread! :D
    Looking forward to seeing the midwife this week, think it'll be the first time she actually measures the bump? Am I right? Ill be 25 weeks.

    My nan bought me a name book for my birthday (not just any names but Christian names...hint there I think, my cousins have picked some more unusual names that she obv doesn't approve of!) and was asking if there was any in there that we liked. Nope, cant get round us that easily! Have already told all the family that we wont be divulging the names until bean is here and its definitely their name.

    Good luck today becca, I've pm'd you too.
    :heart: Mini me due March 2014 :heart:

    Sjlou gap seems to have more Uni sex than other shops & although it was a blanket 50% off at the weekend, some things are individually marked down online so probably still worth a look!
  • TeamLowe - baby never used to wake me either but he used to wriggle all night until I went to bed and once the alarm went off. I used to wake for the loo around 4-4:30am though. My friend said that her baby carried their pattern through when he was born, I've found this to be true with Joshua. He cluster feeds until around 11pm-midnight (my bedtime) and used to wake around 4-4:30 for a feed then asleep until we're up and cluster feed for a bit. These days he will go through until 6am ish. Hopefully your little one will follow suit. Xx

    I've just been tested for drugs and alcohol! :rotfl: They do random testing every couple of months at work and they picked me this time. Everyone was like, 'Really?! The pregnant girl?!', bit of a waste of money and time but I guess if they pick you, you have to do it! Struggled to give a pee sample though, I can't pee under pressure, especially when there's someone sat outside the cubicle making sure there's no funny business going on! :o
