Can someone post the link for it please?

LT - it's next Friday, we go in first thing on Friday am.

crace - I know it hit me how messy it could be once I saw that lol. What actual day is the C/S?

Shoshe - you are so lucky you were only going slow at the time! Isn't it funny how kids react to these things - I remember once we were in the car ready to go to group and the car wouldn't start so we had to stay in instead. The kids were laughing and all excited because we'd 'broken down' - they just wanted to sit in the car and laugh at my lack of success starting it

PinkChick - thanks mate, my face is a state but I like my bump - with ds I was fat all round and didn't really have a bump like this. Yes, I've put on a lot of fat on my legs/bum etc. but at least you can still tell I'm pregnant this time round I don't do a little booklet, just the full policies brochure for them to keep. This probably isn't what you want but in case anything from there may be useful, it's all on my website

Katy - well done

I can't hear it because my computer won't let me ?

Only heard a snipet (sp!) Katy, but what I heard sounded great! Will 'listen again' on iplayer when the kids are all gone!!
Good on you

I was very worried that I wouldn't sound 'grown up' iykwim

my tyre bew on the way to school this morning! was ok just up the road (still on camp 15mph limit so safe) so called DH, he came up in his crappy old car, I transfered the schoolies into DH car as well as friend who comes with me. left the SAHmindees with DH watching DVD in car.

Now my big Bongo is automatic, his crappy old car is a manual, with a manual choke.

I flooded it!

Friend drives it, reving the gears the whole way, it was like someting from Thelma and Louise, the schoolie girls thought it was soooooooooooo funny.

We made it to school in time tho

LT - pmsl at sieve, sorry. Ah, the dignity of childbirth.

This time next week LT I should have babe in arms. And morphine. A lot of it.

Thanks ML for the link!

Hi boys! Gathering lists together for MIL for the dc routines (or lack thereof) and favourites. As I have to walk her through this for the first time it occurs to me I should have gone out more. Over protective?? ME???

Hey PC!

Hi all! Please tell me there are some brownies left and you've not had them all!! I really really want one!! Maybe it's a craving so I better have one :O

One mindee today (usually day off) and we've been out this morning, had lunch and now mindee asleep so I'm having lunch and catching up!

Had after school mindee at 7am this morning. I'm not doing after next week if I'm asked!! It's too stressful for me and dd and dh wasn't best pleased either

Just quicky as midwife called and is on her way.

Crace - you go ahead and freak out, totally understandable but you'll be just fine! Can't believe it's so soon - remind me what day?

Boys - yes, planning home birth so fingers crossed Mindees mum GAVE me a big birthing pool (complete with sieve and all ). I'm due in just over 5 weeks (23rd June), 3 more weeks of work and then I can rest for a bit hopefully

Pinkchick - hi
