Hello all - busy weekend, no time for MN! Went househunting Sat (no joy) and to the cinema on Sun (much joy - Hugh Jackman shirtless), then saw my ma yesterday. She'd bought me the most GORGEOUS white cardigan from Boots, some short-sleeved rompers and matching hats, and some socks (randomly, as they are for 6-9 mo). She also bought me a gorgeous changing bag from Mamas and Papas. I got some plain white long sleeved rompers from Morrisons (3 for £3.25, take THAT John Lewis, with your 3 for £12 for plain white rubbish), so the baby clothes shopping is piling up well!
curly that's scary, you poor love. I hope the amnio brings reassuring news and that you can get over this blip and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy stress-free. Thinking of you.
hormones? OH MY GOD YES. I am so annoyed most of the time atm; I tell you what's improved it in the last 24 hours for me though (may not work for everyone): spending a day with my Mum. No, sadly, not in a 'it was so lovely and sprinkled with rainbow dust, although she was v sweet with pressies etc). She literally CANNOT be pleased by anything. The coffee in Caffe Nero was too hot, then it was spilt down the side of the cup (obviously deliberately to vex her), there was someone smoking outside (which she hates), someone crashed a tray down next to her making her jump - you name it. She pulls this face as if the WHOLE WORLD is conspiring to upset her. It's so wearing, and I decided, on the spot that my new motto is going to be: look for the joy. I honestly did not want to spend any time with her ever again after yesterday, she's a happiness sponge, and I recognise that I'm doing similar by letting myself get worked up all the time over small things. So, BREATHE ladies, and look for the joy.
Now I'm going to try and remember what else I read above... 
Joy: being pg is a perfect excuse for my natural inability to remember faces/dates/appointments/what I've just read on a thread...
