Gosh this thread moves quickly! 
Yay for plum bump babybrain
And great news about your sister too
It's lovely having a pregnancy buddy.
Glad things are going really well for you Trouble, and you're managing some good sleep!
Sorry about your terrible night and ridiculously long day yesterday Bun
And
for you at your friend not being able to make the wedding. The wonder weeks makes or interesting reading so I'll save that one for if when baby makes an appearance. I don't really remember DS's early days but by gosh I remember the 4 month growth spurt - it was awful! But luckily didn't last too long 
Glad your feeling contented, despite everything that is going on, fools! I hope you manage to get your money back or your order mysteriously appears. Why aren't you to be trusted with power tools?
Is there a back story or is just one of those man things?
Sounds like your house is coming on brilliantly!
Yay for broccoli baby Mamma I'm glad you're still friends 
Glad they're letting you out you're going home Ellie, especially as it was something and nothing 
Ghost , I hope you're not weighing yourself daily [quizzical face]?
Seriously, don't beat yourself up about it. Your have a nearly 2 month old, so your body is still recovering from pregnancy and labour. Diet and exercise are great for you both physically and mentally, but unless you are superhuman (or one of them lucky celebs that have nannies, personal trainers, dieticians and chefs), it will take time. And of course, you'll be building your muscles back up again and will likely have changes in water retention. But having said all that I completely get how frustrating it is, when all you want is to get out of maternity clothes
I was in mine for over 6 months last time and was still wearing size 16, instead of my usual 12's about 4 months after
. Try to enjoy things for now and not give yourself too much pressure though - it will go! 
So very frustratingly I'm still bloody here
I went to the hospital for my CS Pre-Assessment clinic yesterday and it really freaked me out to the point where I had a very little cry (but managed to hide it). I think it was just because of all the information they give you, that they don't normally have time to give you when it's an EMCS, so it was info overload and I realised just how much I don't want a CS
. It's made worse by the fact that I bloody asked for it instead of opting for induction! So the upshot is I'm in a bit of a mess now and have just 3 days for baby to appear. I know that there are still plus sides to it (Baby's health, being organised as I know when baby will arrive, ladybits still being intact etc), but there are so many negatives outweighing those at the moment. I'm worried about recovery and the impact it will have on DH & DS, not being able to drive, the fact that it's a major operation (albeit a common one, never mind one I've already been through
). Oh and on top of all that, I think the extra stress has put paid to any labour signs I might have been having
Sorry ladies - another self indulgent rant! I seem to be doing a lot of that lately
It is easier to let it out here though, as DH is enough of a worrier without me giving him more things to worry about. But he is being brilliant and keeps asking if there's anything he can do.
Right, time to pull myself together and tell my mother to fuck off that no, there is no baby news, get some breakfast down me, and get on that ball! Maybe followed up by some floor cleaning
