Wow, what a lot to catch up on!
Welcome and congratulations to all the newcomers!
TDW When I was pregnant second time round, I went through the same feelings, how will I cope with 2 (and 2 under 2), how will I cope with getting both of them ready for, and into bed on my own (DH also used to work away alot, but thankfully has a new job now, which means that he's based at home alot more). But, somehow I did it, and you will too. The first 6 months were the easiest for me, before DS2 was mobile, but now it is a little more challenging as he just ploughs through whatever DS1 is playing with!
Now my next challenge is going back to work next week and getting us all up, fed, dressed and out by 8am. 
working9while5 those MWs don't sound the most caring of people. Could you talk to your GP about which mw you have? Or is there a community mw in your area?
Starlight my second birth was also a whole lot better than my first, so I'm hoping that it gets easier each time 
Carty80 paracetamols are absolutely fine all the way through (about the only thing that is). Not sure about the hot water bottle though
greengoose hope those pains aren't anything more than just a bit of movement. I've been having crampy periody feelings in my tummy and back. I'm just hoping that it's just things stretching out and making a bit of room.
Rrrrayray I have friends in Titchfield too. I lived in Southsea for 10 years before heading a bit further north.
No other symtoms as yet (when should I start worrying that I'm not having any, or should I just be grateful :) other than extreme tiredness when I'm driving.
I am feeling a bit anxious this time, more than last time, about telling people as all 3 DCs will be so close in age and I'll only have been back at work for 7 months before I have to go off again. I didn't tell work until I was 18 weeks last time (I managed to keep it hidden from them) and I'm hoping I will be able to do the same again this time, but that's dependant on when I start to show I guess.
