    Mary, the whooping cough immunisation is recommended to give baby protection until their own immunisations, and can be given up to 38 weeks pregnant.

    sophiasmum - I am hopeful she won't be too big. I do have quite a bump but its all out front if that makes sense. Glad your getting your badg ready - I keep looking at mine sat in the corner!

    mrshappy - hope you are getting on ok :). Love those changing bags but can't afford one :(

    fireyfirenze - I hope your last night shift went well. I feel like I am on a night shift and day shift at the moment, I need the toilet ALL the time.

    neverdespairgirl - My Mum got all my clothes out the loft and some are really stunning little dresses and were ok so were washed and I hope will be worn. One suit I have a picture of me in with my late Dad so would be nice to put my little girl in it with my OH.

    Lara44 - Hope all your Uni work is now complete and you can put your feet up, I am still trundling on!

    VickyVics - Sorry to hear about your recent hospital stay. I hope you are putting your feet up - could be any day!

    My Granny made one for my mother when sister #2 was born, and I've inherited that - I really like it (I used it for Isaac, too).

    My mother's also dug out all the baby clothes she stashed after Isaac grew out of them, and washed and ironed them all. Which is the last time they'll be ironed for some time to come, I'm sure! There's a really sweet cardigan that my great-grandmother knitted for me when my mother was pregnant with me, and I love the fact that he'll be wearing something his great-great-grandmother knitted, it seems really lovely.

    I love hand-me-downs, especially of the handmade variety. My mum has given me a blanket that was crocheted by a friend when I was born. Both myself and my sister came home from the hospital in it and I love the thought that my LO will be coming home from the hospital in it as well.

    Been to get measured for my nursing bras. At the weekend I went to Debenhams and when she told me my size (38D) and gave me a bra to try on I nearly cried (I partly blamed the hormones). It look terrible, was ill fitted and when I put a top on over the top it look like I had long stretched sausage like boobs going across my chest. I flat out refused to take any of the bras she got me. This morning I went to Mothercare (figured they must measure on a daily basis) and the lady gave me a much better fit (34G). A lot more in line with every other bra I have ever owned! My boobs actually look like boobs. Will happily wear these bras.

    Wow 34G! I have found a lot of the bras horrid - make you look all 'pointy' if that makes sense?

    What were the Mothercare prices like?
