Ah, glad you like the Orb alipops1986. I saw the special version too, but that was £450, and the standard one was £275, so the standard one seems a very good price!

Poor you MrsC with being up all night after the meal out. Pregnancy digestion is rubbish sometimes!

Thanks for the lovely welcome :-)

Littlemiss I have two much older children but this is mine and oh first. We experienced 4 miscarriages before this and had actually stopped "trying" and then surprise :-) I am sooooooo excited and for oh it will be his first :-)

I'm hoping to feel better soon been knocked out by these germs

Hello, I'm lurking from the first thread but I just wanted to say to lilmissreading that your baby's movements shouldn't decrease. This seems to be a really common misconception but it's a really dangerous one hence why I felt the need to pipe up! You read what happened to me on the other thread and I'd hate the same thing to happen to anyone on here. I'm not sure the below link will work but if not check out the Count the Kicks website.

Off to lurk again but hoping to join this thread in December x

hi, had a really good time at the wedding reception, and stayed a bit longer than planned but it was nice to catch up with my work colleagues after so long.
Last night it was my nephews concert which was fab, the best one we've seen yet so officially Little Miss is now allowed to arrive.

Tilly dreams - thanks for being clear on this. I went off and did some reading which suggested I shouldn't feel less but without your post I don't know if I would have taken it as seriously. Fortunately my little man is wriggling away so far so long may it continue.

Here's wishing you a trouble free pg this time

Just done my first lot of baby washing

I fee quite reassured now that lots of you have cribs to start with, instead of cots. I think I'm starting the parental guilt early by thinking our little one won't have much space or stuff, although sensibly I'm sure they'll be oblivious!

Had pregnancy Pilates tonight, and feel great for it - all my aches, bloatedness and general rubbishness cleared up - I love that class! :j

Ok... so absolute stupid question :o coming up as I'm sure the answer is no!

However, can a contractor (who is only entitled to SMP) accrue holidays whilst they're paid (90% first 6 and stat for rest) for the 39 weeks? I'm nearly 1000% sure that the answer would be no however, none of the websites I've been perusing say definitively either way.

I know you accrue holidays whilst on maternity leave... but statutory maternity pay?
