    Is it ickiness or just crumbs on the keyboard? I always hoover mine with the brush attachment when i'm doing my study.

    not sure if i am starting off in labour here. My stomach has kept going really tight all day, and it seems to be getting more frequent. I would have thought it to be a lot more painful though, and lower down, lol - you wouldn't think i had been through this before would you.


    I am imagining braxton hicks, but then again, you never know, they are more painful now than this morning, and it could be the start of a long labour like the midwife said.

    Just got DS sat down with a snack and a DVD. Think i might ring DH and sister just in case so they are on standby. Doesn't really matter either way as everything is ready.

    :o maybe a bit of both - will turn it off and try the hoover 1st before I try to dismantle it :rotfl:

    Michelle - All of my labours have been different*... I ached my way through the last (pregnancy) and was chatting on the phone at 6pm complaining of backache, by 9.15pm was at the hospital and by 10.15pm lo had arrived :D all excited for you - cannot find the right emoticon for that though...

    * as in I didn't realise I was in labour until there were a few definate signs

    I finally got round to tracking a friend's email and phone number down. I decided to just give her a phone, seeing as I have inclusive international calls as of yesterday and she's in Germany. I left a message on her voicemail and she phoned me back. I then found out it was her mobile I'd been calling, not her landline :eek:

    *runs off to change telephone budget for May*

    Did you ever find out who stole your chicken pie pigpen?

    nope.. which means it will have been DD3.. she has an 'eating disorder' apparently.. I think she is just a greedy little cow who can't bear to think of someone getting something.. whether she is or not doesn't make any difference.

    Raphael.. noone has had dog biscuits today as I've not dished any up!

    Mudbath.. I'd go see the head too! My DS3 is in year 4 too.. and has his moments but if I knew he was behaving like that with a supply teacher he'd be having his rear end laced! And yes you can call them scrotes if they are behaving like that.. and I hope some of the parents of the other children are reading and are ashamed of how their children are behaving!

    My brood are now fed.. I am going to traumatise DS3 by cutting his hair then bathing him... he rreally hates being bathed but having his hair cut is just sadistic behaviour on my part.. but he is looking like a frightened turkey!!

    Michelle.. I had 3 weeks of that with DS1.. don't get too excited just yet!! lol I have a retroverted uterus (it is in backwards lol typical really!) I had all 8 posterior presentations.. looooong loooooong labours. The girls oddly were all pain in my back and thighs the boys were a piece of cake.. all tummy pain... I could deal with that.. Here's hoping it is things moving quickly and painlessly...
