Taken me ages to finally get on my laptop to post something, but congratulations Evil and TheChick! Hope you both and babies are doing well :D Nice to hear from Whereis and Daisytoo, and i'm sure there was something else I wanted to say to someone in particular, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was!

I've got my WC and Flu jabs booked for Thursday coming. Saw MW Thursday just gone and bean is 4/5 engaged according to my notes, and spot on for measurements so all is well here. I feel like an elephant and did the silliest thing and weighed myself last night. Why, oh why, did I do that? I shan't be doing it again I don't think :| I hope to god I lose the weight, i've gained heaps :|

Having wicked heartburn now and night times are horrible :( I slept for 4 hours today but it wasn't extra sleep, just made up for last night and how rubbish that was! I thought sleeping was hard enough but this past week or so has been awful. Am 35+1 now so not long left, hope he doesn't decide to stay in there longer than his cooking time!

I do always read the threads but don't often reply because i'm normally on my phone rather than my laptop. Hope everyone is good, anyway :) Will keep on reading everything and try to keep up!

YW that is a cute jumper, but keep an eye out, there's bound to be other nice ones coming up.
I completely forget about something I was watching the other week, so missed out - and it went pretty cheap too. I was really cross with myself.

detective i didn't realise pools were so in demand. Is it possible to hire one?

More expensive to hire one! I've looked!

Kyzords Rolo dessert - job done

DP just facebook messaged me. We are in the same room. On our computers.

Is this a sign of things to come?!

Lol Detective -that's been the standard in our house for a while. The kids message me from their rooms to ask when dinner will be ready or to just chat. DH and I communicate that way on Skype cos he's usually working in the study about 10 feet away and he can't be arsed to move

Or raise his voice :s

blonder I was tempted by the cow print one but went for a boring plain one in the end.

I kept losing eBay items by forgetting too, have been looking for a buggy board. Someone told me about these sniping websites like Just Snipe, which bid for you at last 10 secs. Only tried once and my highest bid wasn't enough but at least I actually bid!

Congrats thechick hope you are ok x

I have also had terrible heartburn today. Actually I have it most days now and it keeps me awake at night too. I find Rennies work and although I've read they're safe to take in pregnancy I still don't like to take them too often and when I don't I suffer.

Jealous that babies are arriving already and it feels like I still have ages to go From memory most of you are due before me.

I've just posted a pic on the facebook.
Hoping to get some sleep.
Evil

I was gonna say snipe!

Gorgeous evil you must be very proud!

Det she mentioned my liver function test. Saying it was low. N said acid bile tests won't b available till Monday. Which is y I don't understand y they sound so certain it's OC.

Gone to bed in the spare room in a strop. Can't sleep, typical! Can't even remember why I'm in a strop, fecking hormones!

I have an ebay app on my phone. It's set to beep 5 mins before something i'm watching or bidding on ends. It usually has a negative impact as it makes it so easy to bid on things you don't really need. Today for instance, I've bought 20 new newborn sleepsuits on eBay after getting in a state because we only have tiny baby (thanks yw's sister, although fc won't need them!) and 0-3 months. fecking hormones again. I also lost work this week due to a client's family bereavement, so really shouldn't be spending money given I've earned £50 max this week! (less than I used to get in tips working in a bar as a student ).

Ebay is like my best friend: always there when I need something, but 9 times out of 10 encourages me to do buy something totally ridiculous!

Me? Please?

Or me!!

oh wow - so exciting to hear of a new baby joing our group, and lovely to hear about the other babies too. Fingers crossed your LO daisy will be home soon.

I'm off to the midwife soon, I hope it's a good meeting and I can get my head straight!

I need to wipe my hospital bag out and then pack it, everything is ready for it, it just smelled a bit musty from being in the garage.

Me please as I am awake with bad BH/ trapped wind/ baby moving down any of these. Uncomfy

Meh. Up again at 3:26am. Been in bed since 11pm but can't sleep due to immense girth/ blocked nose/ acid reflux. DH has got up with me and made me a hot milk and honey drink. Good DH

This not sleeping thing isn't much fun at all :(

May have to give the tool desserts a go now detective! I discovered yesterday matchmakers seem to make it ten times worse so I'm avoiding those now :(

Really painful BH. Almost could believe this is is, but don't think they are regular.

Argh I get a blokes nose the min I lie down to go to sleep its SO annoying!

I'm going to start washing baby things next week then start packing the bag afterwards so around 35/ 36 weeks. Getting excited now!

Last Monday at work!!!! Last week at work for 9months!!!! Scary!!!

I weighed myself this morning have put on 10kg weight seems fairly stableish now?!

Congrats evil! Lovely name :)

And what a surprise chick many congrats to u too! Yikes my EDD is 17th nov is basically right next to urs! I also think Iost a bit my mucus plug yesterday :/ Like liliana I better pack that maternity bag.....

Had my first full day of ante natal class yesterday. I'm really confused about the whooping cough vaccine now. Nct teacher basically said that it hasn't been approved or tested on pregnant women and the manufacturers actually said they do not recommend to pregnant women ?! That's the opposite of the governments advise??? I have my jab this morning at 9.30!

Don't know what to do do. Seems like everyone on here is having it?! Anyone choosing not to have it?
