Welcome to our new home! Right, time to get that baybee out lazy!

All these boobs! I've always been a 32 or 34 A. Cannot imagine what it must be like having these all the time!

Faith do you portion your mega cook off into tupaware to freeze? I like the sound of having meals for a month at my disposal.

Yes jeff that's exactly the plan although I grossly underestimated how many tupperwears I needed. I've used 9 already but need probably the same again!

Oh what bliss, I slept! MSB went in the spare room for both our sakes. I slept (with the wee exceptions) from 11ish (wee stops at 1.30 and 6) til 6.30, got up to eat, then fell asleep on the sofa so went back to bed about 8.30. Woke at 10.45! MSB slept most of the night too so we both seem brighter. Probably try the same again tonight.

I must be exhausted...bed at ten and woke at seven....no pee stop! a thing unheard of even before pregnancy! ! !

No pee stop?! I was pleased to skip the 4.30am bladder call this morning. I thought I'll be gobsmacked if its not 4.30 then proceeded to be gobsmacked! :)

Well we've been to the shops and bought a few bits and all my tupperwears are now full. Something like 20 tupperwears now! :) Chilling on the sofa now. We have nice plans for tomorrow - it's the local 10k and I've got family and friends doing it. We're supervising our nephew when my sister and BIL run, then it's off to the pub where we're meeting up with my friend who is at a wedding in the area today. Really looking forward to it!

Have you finished your batch cooking Faith?

We went into Mothercare yesterday, we were just passing & thought we'd go & have a look - SSG is now obsessed with researching buggies / prams / travel systems etc.

I plan to do the cheese pie tomorrow - I only have the dentist booked in, what fun! But yes, everything else is frozen in the new chest freezer. Had a lovely day with friends but absolutely stuffed from pub grub now! :)

Ah the 'research' mode. I think it hits them all at some point!

We're just in research mode too! Decided on nursery set in mother care today ...now mr.df is trying to work out the best mattress!

I'm just going to leave it to him to decide on some options I think then choose the one I like. I'm very indecisive. Blu what nursery set are you getting? There was some nice stuff in there. I did have to explain to SSG that the baybee doesn't go into their own room straight away though and that a Moses basket in our room will be required. His repose was hilarious.... "But we'll never get any sleep".... Me: " we won't get much sleep for about 2 years?!!"

Faith what is cheese pie pliz? Like a pie with cheese in? I am cheese obsessed so need to know how easy it is to make!

We won't get any sleep! Arf MSB questioned why the Moses basket would be my side of the bed....I explained I would be getting up to it in the night since it would be feeding from my boobies....

Tis nice to get the nursery set up even though they won't sleep in there for ages. I really like sitting in ours already. It's very tranquil.

Cheese pie. Tis my Mum's recipe. Dead easy, so yummy! Basically: boil spuds (I just tend to do lots!) along with chopped onion in the water. Mash spuds with plenty of butter, hardly any milk. Add lots of cheese (ideally a combo of Red Leicester and cheddar) and here's the key ingredient a teaspoon of mustard^. Bung in the oven until it crisps over. Serve with salad. Yum yum yum. Freezes and reheats really well too! I have always luffed cheese but have been a bit obsessed since my second trimester :)

Decided on the summer oak...I actually wanted all wood as they white never grabbed me but when I saw it I liked! Mr df also like it the best...with the sale and quidco it comes to just over 400 which seems ok!

We didn't actually buy much nursery furniture. We used an old chest of drawers and a baby changer which someone gave us. I would recommend getting something like that because it really saves your back. Otherwise we have a second hand cot and nursing chair. Nothing new really.

Today was The Little Mister's thanksgiving service. It was absolutely lovely. Pictures here.

We didn't either. We bought a chest of drawers with the changing top, only cos it was half price ex-display! and mil has bought a cot bed (course it won't be used for months yet!). We inherited a futon on which I may well do some night feeds.

Dor it looked like a luffly day :) what a smiley boy you have!

Just learn to feed lying down faif. It makes such a difference!

My dad and step mum wanted to get us the furniture...I couldn't decide between just getting cot and a chest of drawers but we have very little storage and its an empty room so thought the wardrobe would be handy. we don't have stairs so there's no under cupboard...in fact we don't have any cupboards (reason I bought a pretty Hoover! )
Ah after some good nights sleep the insomnia stays again. Got a big day shopping in Glasgow today

The shopping sounds like fun bluey! Lt us know what you've bought.

MSB is a bit OTT. He got all panicked this morning because he couldn't get hold of me....I was in the supermarket but apparently in late pregnancy the body does crazy things and you could be collapsed on the kitchen floor He has also requested that I don't scrub the bathroom floor because it might send me into labour and his colleague is on leave this week!

Well saw my lovely friend today for shopping...wanted a bump pillow...she's got one to lend me! And a breast pump, and a baby carrier! And, most excitingly, a luffly Co sleeper cot! She's brilliant ;)

Ooo a co-sleeper. I would be tempted by one of them next time.

I luff my NCT Bednest.

Tis lovely looking! I like the idea but was put off by the expense in case the baby doesn't like it etc..
Well the scan is tomorrow! Excited and nervous in equal parts!
faith does that mean he'll scrub the floor?

That's the one Jupiter!

I too wondered whether he would scrub the floor. Take advantage.

He might do it. But not on derby night (big Man U fan).

Faith cheese pie sounds immense. We do a version in a pastry case called Homity Pie. Mmmmmm.

Right wise PESH I'm totally lost on the Bednest & Cosleeper. Can someone enlighten me? Also is it normal to still feel exhausted at 14 weeks or do I just need to HTFU?

A bednest is a crib that attaches to the side of a bed so that your baby is in their own little space but you can get to them easily. Like this one.

My inlaws are visiting me and my father-in-law is a MASSIVE Man U supporter. In fact he has been a season ticket holder for over 50 years and tonight is the first Man City/Man U match he has missed in that time.

I think we have progress on his priorities!
