    I haven't had them myself psycho but have heard conflicting reports, some people say the support from them is amazing. Some people say that despite promises of having the same midwife throughout, they didn't get that. I had an initial meeting with them, didn't gel with the midwife (though you can ask to change) but they didn't even follow the meeting up with me so I left it and stayed with NHS.

    Grrr I am annoyed with the NCT Shop :mad: I ordered an Ewan Dreamsheep on 29th May when they had 20% off, and released yesterday it still hadn't been delivered so I emailed them. I've had a reply today saying it is out of stock so they are refunding me and that I should have had an email telling me this but they forgot to send it! :mad: . It's full price everywhere else now, but other sites had it discounted over that wknd.

    I'm exhausted today. I think I slept ok, guess having a day off is more tiring now! My hips are hurting too, and I keep having to go to the loo. Moan over! :rotfl:

    Thank you... they have actually stopped the services in my area as the demand was too high :(

    my taster hypnotherapy session was a little useless as she didn't seem to go into any details about what hypnobirthing actually is and entails, and the various breathing... she just spoke about how it helps you make choices for yourself and create a good environment for you to deliver in. I'm not really sure what I expected, but I didn't really feel like I came away knowing any more details!

    It's more the fact that it was actually a gift from the MIL, she chose it and gave us the money to order it on her behalf.

    If you sign up with babies r us, you'll get a £5 off £30 spend. They sell Ewan for £29.99, so you could add something small on to tip you over £30 spend and then use the voucher. Worth checking for cash back also.

    Hope that helps x

    Oh she's a little cutie pigpen. Hope you manage to agree on a name soon.

    Little one has decided to have a quiet few days, I still get the odd reassuring kick though. I don't like it when he has quiet days though!!
