Recipe of the week

penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

Here it is!
tee there is a new thread here it is
Awfully quiet around here...did more people go into labour?!?!? grin

How can it be that only one of my feet is swollen? hmm
CONGRATULATIONS Effie on the birth if baby Rupert (lovely name ) I hope you get him home very very soon xx

Laura - hope you are feeling brighter now, damn those hormones!

June & Bunnymother - yes thats me on FB!

I saw the midwife again today, she says baby is 3/5ths engaged (same as 10 days ago hmm) and still OP. I have an app with the consultant next monday when i'll be 40+6 and she thinks he will try a sweep but will want me in the following day for induction shock thought they'd give me a little longer, but they are worried about my last csection scar. really really hope it happens some point this week so i can avoid induction!

hope everyone else is well
Oh how exciting!!! Congratulations to effie - hope little Rupert gets out of intensive care soon. What a whopper he would have been if she had gone to 40 weeks!

Girls, I am doing my best to lure LO out, but I think she has her mother's sense of timing and will be late... wink

Laura - I think def call a girlfriend or go for a walk, or do something nice for yourself. Can you go and buy a fruit salad and sit in the sun munching while reading a really trashy mag? Hope you feel better soon... Prob not helping that your LO has been mischevious pretending they are on their way, then staying put!
Oh grand Laura has done!
CONGRATS to effie and her wee boy! Hope everything goes well.

Laura - snow is right, if you could get out and about I think that would help. Feeling isolated is totally understandable especially at this stage in pregnancy, and to be honest also when you have a baby, so get as much support as you can!

I really want to go out, weather lovely again, but at the same time want to do as much work as possible to get this research finished!

I too just want baby to come, I am trying Looouise!

I will start new thread with MrsMcJnr's title!
More details from effie via naat

"Hello.
Just to let you know Rupert Edward made his way into the world at 2.23 this morning, weighing a healthy 7lb1oz- not bad for 36 weeks. Unfortunately he's in Scbu needing help with breathing, with nasal CPAP and possibly needing ventilation. He came out grunting and recessing. I've only held him for 5 mins and desparate to see and feed him.

I'm not making it public on fb, until tomorrow- when Imogen has told her school pals and pics will be up then too. Feel free to tell the other juners on MN.

Keep fingers crossed that Rupert will get better soon xxx"

So if anyone has any prayers to spare, send them effie and Rupert, okay?

BABIES HERE!!

Bigcar, Edward, born 28th May 2009, 3:30pm, 9lb 8 oz!!
Effie, Rupert Edward, Born 1st June 2009, 2:23am, 7lb 1oz!!

If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
