Cinny that T shirt is so cute - I love the description! Are you excited for your scan on Friday?

I'm excited, but equally nervous?! I just want to see that they're in there and doing okay, then I can relax a little. Worried something will be wrong, or I'm not actually pregnant at all. Think that's kind of a normal feeling though?!

I'm an everyday hooverer, but I do have a shedder dog and if I didn't hoover every day there would be nothing but a thin layer of white hair all over But I figure a little dirt doesn't harm anyone, think it's just a little different for Dinah with having preemies?

Dang it, I didn't look at the sizes! They were in the toddler section so I just assumed (and made an !!! out of u and me )

Perfect idea about the blanket!! And thanks for the offer but I'm 92% confident we have one somewhere Might have to move OH from his side of the sofa so I can reach a plug

Weird question but... did anyone switch to just one perfume after they had their kid? I have about 6 different ones I wear but last week I smelt something that smelt *just* like my Mum's hugs and decided my kid needs to have that :rotfl::rotfl: OH thinks I'm being batty (probably true) but I'm determined to use up all the perfumes I have an settle on just the one before they get here My quest was helped when I tried to wear my Diesel Loverdose at the weekend and couldn't stand myself

Perfectly normal feelings Cinny! I remember my first scan, first I was relieved that there was an actual baby in there, then I was relieved that there was only 1!

It's not a crazy idea about sticking to just one scent. My Mum only ever smelt of one thing when I was growing up (Ralph Lauren Safari!) and she's never smelt 'right' since it was discontinued. She makes sure she always wears the same thing when seeing the grandbabies so they relate it to her (Chanel Chance I think). I wear a couple of different perfumes at the minute as I haven't settled on the one that I want to stick with me forever and ever but once I settle on it I will stick to it!

I forgot about the possibility of more than one! :rotfl: Suppose I wouldn't complain at twins but I might get a little alarmed at more than that. OH will claim it's an X File

Phew, glad it's not just some odd notion I came up with. I was sure it was a thing I can't remember exactly what my Mum wore but it was very earthy/musky.. but in a way nicer way than how I'm explaining it. My POA is to pick "the one" on the lead up to Christmas and settle into my Mum life early as having that as the one guaranteed gift I get every birthday/christmas for the rest of my life

Good idea!

Errr, I neeeed this dress, right?! And possibly this one?! :cool:

Ha Birdie I have a very similar dress to the first one. I made it a few years ago to go to a fancy dress party

500%! I got the prettiest things from Hot Topic when we went on holiday last year, was at an outlet centre plus they had bogof on everything. Such a beautiful day!

Obviously if you're getting the Little Mermaid dress, you need this to go with it

Birdie85

And this?! I may have had a little squeak of disappointment when getting to the shipping stage - $48 for postage! :eek: Devastated! Oooooooooh just Googled and there's a Hot Topic shop in the Florida Mall! Slightly less devastated now!

Starnac - you're far too clever for your own good, making your own clothes!

What about this Birdie? For Zach?

Cinny91

You'll have to make a trip, Birdie. I mean... might as well get the use out of the hire car My Sister always used to get my birthday/christmas presents from there when she was in California and said they basically always have a sale/offers on. Sure you can order online for instore pick up too, just so you definitely get the things you want?

Would 100% recommend a trip to Primark, they're marking their summer stuff down already and had all their "branded" (Disney, Harry Potter, Simpsons etc) things reduced to a couple pounds

That transfer is perfect, Star! How's everything your way?

Things are a bit slower here now thank you.

Hope all goes well with you on Friday. I had the same worries about "what if I'm not actually pregnant?" before the first scan so don't fret.

Loads going on on this thread. Haven't caught up with it all yet. I rely on FB mostly to get my news nowadays. Lazy I know
