Bloody hell - MIA for a couple of days and we're onto a new thread already, never mind all the exciting fuzzy news! Looks like I've got some catching up to do, so this will be an epic post 
trope you definitely don't look anything like a blimp! A lovely blooming, pregnant lady I think! 
I know what you mean about doing the double take though. I could only ever see how big I was when I looked sideways in a mirror. I didn't have any weight anywhere except the bump and my boobs hid a lot of that from my angle Now of course my boobs have got even bigger and I've got a horrid jelly belly But it's going slowly and I'm not going to start to get serious about my weight loss until Lauren is 3 months. At least that's the plan in the meantime, pass me the chocolate Mainly because I know my body will lay down fat stores for the whole BF thing, so I want to give it time to settle down.
Congrats on your new nephew! Gosh - just seen that you have pre-eclampsia and are being induced! Thanks for waiting for me You're doing fabulously! Shakes pom poms vigorously
Kayzr - wow at 10lb 5! And I thought Lauren was big My growth scan the week before she came estimated her at 10lbs, yet a week later she was only 9lb 2.5oz so, yes I think they can be out by a good lb Happy Wedding day! 
I hope you have a fabulous day
ellie that's so lovely of your DH to tile the bathroom as a surprise! I'd have cried too even without the hormones Glad your scan went well, although sorry you didn't get to keep it a surprise.
Bun thanks for the lovely comments about the baby blues. I did laugh at your comment about me being sensible though The good news is, they seem to have passed now, probably because I'm getting lots of rest (if not sleep), and Lauren seems to be settling down well now. Fab news about your 2 little superstars too Your trope updates are great!
babybrain - how exciting about your scan! I'm glad it went well for you. I have to confess, I had a spreadsheet too
fools - I lost my plug over 2 days and there did seem to be quite a lot. I'm glad you're feeling a but better, although don't ever feel like a twat for posting, Friday night or otherwise! Love that comment your DS made about the fat lady! Great news about the names and thanks for sharing (as an aside, my iPhone nearly changed sharing to Sharon )
And apologies I've still not been on the laptop yet (downside of having a smart phone!) but I promise to put extra photos up when I do! So really quick update from me: I'm healing well, Lauren is beautiful but being a fussy bugger right now and she surpassed her birth weight as at day 5! So no more guilt about the shields Will try to come back soon but hats off to those of you that have read that huge post without falling asleep!
Go trope and fuzzy! (My vote is today & 8lb 5oz)

Here goes again- pleased to hear you are feeling better davina can't wait to see your pictures....
My bet for trope is today 8lb 7, although a good Friday baby would be lovely... (maybe not for tropethough who I'm sure is getting fed up by now. Joins in the pom pom waving in anticipation of more news...
I really don't want to go into work today-has been a really stressful week as we've had lots of new staff start due to winning a new contract, but no where for them to sit, due to not enough space and bad management, so has been like musical desks yesterday..
I can't wait fir the long weekend and next week off..hope they have it sorted by the time I go back. Looks longingly into the future to her maternity leave....

Morning peeps - ok I want in on the Draw Something action too! Are you using the free version or the paid one? Is there a difference apart from no adverts on the paid one?
Seriously knackered today - grumpy baby overnight so not much sleep for me. DS is off for his usual visit to Gran's today though so I can slob about most of the day thankfully zzzzzzz

Free for me too davina!
The first draft of rugrats had me a little puzzled fools but the second one was spot on!
Happy wedding day kayzr! Have a fabulous day, I know you will!
Boo for the post loss babybrain, I copy every one before sending as MN does have a habit if eating them (strangely web and app version!
davina well done on Lauren's weight! Seriously impressive!
Guess we'll need to wait for bun to see if those of you who guessed the 4th were right or wrong?!
Right, off to draw something - draw for me people!

Aaaw I feel all left out, wish I had an iPhone now! Will have to steal borrow DP's when he gets home from work!
Happy wedding day Kayzr!! Yey for the sun! Hope you have a gorgeous day with lovely pictures to post
Oh right Trouble yes, I was a community care worker. Didn't realise you work in the same area (sorry if you have already said! 
) what did you do?
Ghost love your name list!
Hi Davina! Great to hear you're feeling better and Lauren's starting to settle Amazing that she surpassed her birth weight so soon! Well done both of you! Oh come on now, I'm sure you're very sensible...
Well done on the catch up post, it's very impressive! Now get on that laptop and post some pictures!
Slobbing day sounds dreamy - enjoy!
Ellie, exactly what Trouble said re. willy cleaning, am impressed, she know's her stuff! Love the name Heidi. I'll be catching up with OBEM later and I'm guaranteed to cry and I don't have the pregnancy hormones as an excuse!!
Sorry you're feeling ill Fools hope it doesn't last long. You and mamma made me laugh with you're mystery drawing Can you tell what it is yet?
Gosh Baby that sounds like a shambles! What a bunch of plebs to not consider seating arrangements!
Well, that was longer than expected, can you tell I'm procrastinating? Got my sister, her boyfriend and his 3 children coming to visit Friday/Saturday and the place is a tip! They're staying in a hotel though so at least I don't have to worry about bedding, towels etc!
