Here we can all be heard for a little while

I had a friend who was scared of driving in towns but would go 90mph on the motorway without a second thought...I'm the opposite!

(It's rainy and dull so I have a guilty pleasure song on...5SOS's "Don't Stop"...*blush*. It's so happy!)

One small victory. Thought I better check if I had any unopened boxes of flesh type colour stockings in my drawer. As I like to wear them with my summer dresses as my legs are a horrible white. Nope but plenty of black.

umm hoping sainsburys have a 25% off soon as best place for me to buy them.

Emptied the washing basket and loads in there needed washing. In the washing machine on a delicate wash. So that has saved me some money at £3 for three pairs.

On my 3rd load of washing today LOL!!! and there is only me that lives here :eek:

No you are not. Being pregnant is hard on your body don't let anyone tell you different.

it takes approx 18-24 months for the body to recovery.

And I know a someone who was pregnant again before she went back to work after maternity leave. And heard about another who had one at xmas and is expecting again. Poor girl she is only 16!!!!

I managed to hoover over the vacuum cleaner cable and shredded it, so had a melt down because I just wanted to do something to feel useful and I ruined it.
OH has done so much and is exhausted and yet it feels like I mess up everything I try and do to help.

I am not pregnant and I still do stuff like that all the time. But that is because I am so slap dash with stuff.

I rant ahead with stuff. And I need to calm down a lot me thinks. Need to take a massive deep breath before I do anything me thinks LOL!!!

Awww Katy, it's OK to not enjoy being pregnant - lots of women don't like it. I'm sure your OH appreciates that you are trying to help. Try not to be too hard on yourself

Today I have managed a lil tidying, and have ground to a complete halt, hand and feet are very cold and brain feels blank. Didn't think I'd done enough to trigger a crash! Might hide in bed to warm up up, secretly is also to feel safe but shhhh

I would be bored of being pregnant as I am not good waiting for stuff. And towards the end I would be like get this baby out of me now :rotfl:

I would not make a good mother as I am not patient enough. When I said to my own mother about that she said. You learn to be.

Not a chance with me LOL!!!!

Duvet fort time. Enjoy but just be careful of the crumbs. Mind you thats where jaffa cakes are good. No crumbs LOL!!!!

I am hiding in bed too dragonette, safest for everyone!

I have no patience either Calley, although being pregnant has made it worse. I just hope things calm down once baby is born, otherwise I would be scared of being on my own with baby.

Makes a change from my own parents though who don't really show emotion at all!

I really hate country lanes, but will drive round Marble Arch without a second thought! My husband is the dead opposite, although he is a very experienced driver - in fact he used to be an IAM instructor and teach the police how to drive!

I love motorways!
And statistically they are very safe.

Country roads are the pits, and the most dangerous.


Calley, maybe you are a good driver, maybe you're not, I don't know, obviously. However, it's better to think that you aren't, as again, it makes you more careful. There are a great many people who think they are wonderful drivers, and it's only when they have an assessment that they find out that maybe they aren't!
Do you know what your 'faults' are, or is it just a general lack of confidence thing?
You know, an assessment might be a very good investment for you. You can explain your fears to the assessor, and he/she would point out any improvements you could make.
It takes about about an hour or so and you drive your own car. I had one a few years ago, and I can't remember the cost, but it was well worth it.

There's some info here....
