December 2012, 'Christmas rush' has a different meaning for us this year!

[StaceymReadyForNumber3]

Thought we should have a shiny new thread.

Marking my place!

So who's going to have a baby on this thread? And has COD had her baby?!

Thanks stacey

marking my place, cheers stacey

mamapo, I'm on my 3rd cold in a row now! (latest one is DH's fault, bringing new germs home from work). Once you're finished working though you'll probably find it clears up much more quickly as you'll have more time to rest.

More babies please!

Marking my place.

Bollocks posted on t'other thread.... copy here - Hi hoping you're ok spotty, caught up on thread last night (plus epic fail lost post attempt) after stupid busy couple of days, so sorry to hear whats been happening - hope dd gets to see u soon and all is ok xxxx

Xmas gush

Just eaten the leftovers from my delish turkey dinner and still hungry!
1 week left at work and exactly a month to EDD - whoooo!
Happy last day at work Mamapo!

Hi all, would love to think it'll be my turn soon but this little one seems far too cosy

Marking my place! Gotta be lots more babies on this one, who will be next....

I seem to have a baby surgically attached to my boob. Just thought I'd share!

Ah honey, sounds glorious. How is Dash doing? Apart from having a good ole feed!

Whoop whoop we're half way through Friday!

Spotty hope you are ok, and being taken care of!

DS has a half day on a Friday so we had Pizza & garlic bread for lunch, we're now settled on the sofa, watching Cars2 and stuffing our faces with biscuits! (While the little ones are asleep)

Bless him honey it's nice to hear how well he is!

Well today I have: cleaned the windows downstairs, sorted the dry washing, ironed the school and work shirts, swept the whole of downstairs and got down on my hands and knees to clean the glue splodges off the living room floor! Lots of stomach cramping now but I think it's just the housework! Lol

How's it going spotty ? Have you got stuff to keep you entertained?

No nothing apart from my phone just waiting for lunch then have to have another trace. Also need a shower think I might try hand expressing something after that. Consultant will be round this afternoon (my lovely one).

Still haven't slept. Anaesthetist has given me the ok for an epidural if I want one, had anyone had one? Dp won't be here until seven I don't think not much point in him even coming.

Oh spotty that's shit. Hopefully with a shower and some expressing you can keep yourself busy.

Talking of expressing, I can get a good few drops by hand, is there any reason I can't use a pump before baby arrives? I'd like to have some in case sugar levels drop but I don't have anything to store little dribbles in. I was thinking if I could express properly that would be better.

The only reason they don't advise it is because it's such a small amount it can get lost in a pump but if you have enough that's great I did with dd b

dont want to get too excited but crazy BH here again tonight.

Spotty I had an epidural. Think I will try to make it as far as I can this time without one and then have it again.

PILs (our emergency babysitters for DD) have gone away this weekend so chances are it's happening

Oooo exciting Walnut

Haha walnut probably, sods law and all that!

Good luck.

Thanks spotty I'll sterilise the pump and see what I can do.

Marking place, still no word from dating, hope they are both ok.

Checking in
We are here to help keep you sane spotty
Aww welling up honey so jealous, I want a baby hanging off my boob, feels like my belly is hanging/separating and hanging down (if that makes any sense)
Had pains for hours last night, gutted it never amounted to anything, barely slept and now the cold is ten times worse. NO motivation to do any sort of cleaning/nesting - you're putting me to shame ladies. My towels are all over the place too haha
