Aww I love Kate! After I had my first child I had a flat stomach the day after he was born and I was easily wearing my normal size 12 clothes. Then I put on weight after he was born as I wasn't doing my physical job any more!

I had a terrible night sleep. Ds woke up a few times, my left tit was so horrifically itchy I couldn't cope and I desperately needed grapefruit and all I could think about was where I could get one, or tinned grapefruit, or juice, it was taking over my night!!

Operation room swap has begun!!! The boys are moving out of their rooms into the spare room. Ds1 s room will be the spare/dumping room, Ds2s room will be the nursery.

So far we've sorted their teddies into keep and give to baby piles and cleared half the playroom toys upstairs so they have more toys in their room to play with. I can't believe how generous they've been with giving things to the baby. They're so excited. I just pray that it continues once he/she is born and they don't turn into jealous horrors!!!

We have also made progress on moving rooms - the cat's room (which will be the baby's) now has the door shut. Apart from the cat's possessions, which we've mostly moved, there isn't a lot of stuff in there apart from some bookcases so we need to sort out the contents of those. The cat seems to be coping ok with it, although this morning he has pood next to the litter tray, presumably in protest.

To the lady whose boss is expecting her to work harder so things are finished before maternity leave - I'm sure this isn't allowed?? I have had a risk assessment - I work in a large organisation which has had plenty of pregnant people before so they know what they're doing. I am banned from handling goats, which is a shame as I really like the goats, they have such a lot of personality.

OnePramAndHisSprog · 19/10/2013 11:08

Morning slags.
I'm back after a bit of an absence, but some bossy cow harangued me into returning Wink Going to have a bit of a catch up now.
Lovely to see you all in all your pramly glory.

apprenticemamma · 19/10/2013 11:14

you are v organised with operation room swap! Lmeg your poor cat haha. Are u expecting regression behaviour next march? We are planning on our dd to be and ds sharing a room eventually. We need a spare room for dh older kids as they frequently stay and this will be ds current room. Need to swap in new year, move ds out of his cot too which he loves so that there is a good 6months before dd steals his precious bedWink redecorate room in a mutually acceptable colour scheme and get ds a toddler bed too.

I'm feeling palpitations just thinking of it Shock !!

Roomsharing will be temporary till 2016 when we will have a better mortgage and more money to extend or move to a bigger house once ds at school. Is it reasonable to have them share so our third bedroom s a spare room? Was so sure twas a boy hadn't even considered otherwise!

OwlinaTree · 19/10/2013 11:24

Well went for flu jab and they didn't give it me because of my cold!

Let's hope I don't get it next week then!

MCPrammer · 19/10/2013 11:37

Morning you ingrates.

Th'usband felt the baby move for the first time last night. The look on his face was priceless Smile

PramChowder · 19/10/2013 12:05

apprentice our two share, opposite sexes. They have shared since ds was almost 3 and dd was 7 months. Out of necessity though as we only had 2 bedrooms in our maisonette and now in this house too. We have our eye on a 3 bed but will have to see if we can afford it. It's up for sal but I heard they are willing to rent it too so I'm waiting to hear back from them.

MCPrammer · 19/10/2013 12:28

Good luck with the house, Pram. Hope you get it.

GameOfPrams · 19/10/2013 12:37

Morning whores.

Wham, you've turned into a proper bold and sweary minx under your new pseudonym. I like it. There are some stupendous name changes on here, absolutely fantastic! I love OnePramAndHisSprog Grin

PramChowder, what in all of Earth's fuckery is there to 'like' about Kate Vacuous Middleton? Her wardrobe? Her stallion-like mane? Her devotion to Reiss? Her work ethic (snort!)? Her ubiquitous nude LK Bennet sledges? Or what about her transgender slag of a sister? Yes, she's just tippety-top, that one. Urg. I'm getting all wound-up just thinking about those two Angry

Imeg, can you elaborate on this 'cat's room'? What 'possessions' does your moggy have?

I've finished series 2 of Game Of Thrones. Where do I find series 3???

MCPrammer · 19/10/2013 12:39

No GoT spoilers please. I'm only halfway through series 2.

GameOfPrams · 19/10/2013 12:52

I certainly will keep my trap zipped, MCPrammer, I hate spoilers Angry

I would like to say, however, that I was utterly thrilled to see Charles Dance make his entrance to the show. I've wanted to shag that old man since forever

MCPrammer · 19/10/2013 13:04

Ew, no. My best friend at secondary school was into him but I could never see it myself.

MCPrammer · 19/10/2013 13:07

WHAT did you just post on FB? I need eye bleach Confused

GameOfPrams · 19/10/2013 13:14

A cookie dough draught excluder for my great aunt Mable. I made it myself

MCPrammer · 19/10/2013 13:23

It's very lifelike Wink

I'm going shopping soon. I intend to buy the "How to Run a Restaurant For Dummies" book, some item of baby boy clothing and some shoes. I don't like any of the ones I have except a pair of boots that need reheeling.

Spending money I don't have Grin And not giving a damn about it. My credit card was blocked for a while because I couldn't pay the bill (thanks to XP and his messing about with maintenance) but I think it's being reactivated today.

MCPrammer · 19/10/2013 14:10

Anyone know what's happened to Frankel? Haven't seen her here or on FB for a while.

apprenticemamma · 19/10/2013 15:38

Niamh or Aoife? thought would just chuck it out there to the mercy of the circling pramahnas!

IceNoSlice · 19/10/2013 15:46

Apprentice i like Niamh a lot. We couldn't have it due to family. Do you have Celtic links at all as I think either of those are easier if you do (though fine if you don't).

NoMaybeAboutIt · 19/10/2013 15:46

Love both of those Apprentice though I am allowed neither

What did you buy MCP?

apprenticemamma · 19/10/2013 15:53

yes , I'm half Irish. Greek mil has started her campaign for a Greek name but we re determined as we love Irish names and Celtic mythology behind them.

apprenticemamma · 19/10/2013 15:54

we live in Scotland too

GameOfPrams · 19/10/2013 16:46

Sorry, but I don't like either of those stupid names. Anything which is spelled ludicrously should be banned

Warning: unbridled profanities and general offensiveness ahead:

Families who take their under-fives into busy shopping centres: fuck off home and do your shopping on the internet. No-one thinks you are an attractive Boden family; you are a pain in the arse for inflicting your cacophonous shits to the shopping public. Come back when they are nine; Dads: what the fuck are you gormless bastards doing out on a Saturday afternoon filling up valuable pedestrian space in shopping malls? Fuck off home for a wank or summat, you are neither use nor ornament; Morbidly-obese women queuing in M&S for a free sample of 1" x 1" Christmas cake and blocking the gangway with your Wailing Wall arse: fuck off and buy the bastard cake; Man sat opposite me on the bus with his legs spread at such an extravagant angle that I have to stare at the testicle veins through your cheap jeans: fuck off, you 'orrible twat; Anyone in front of me in any queue anywhere: fuck off, I'm pregnant; Anyone doing their Christmas fucking shopping in Bury on Saturday, 19th October: you cunts. You're not super-organised; you are anal retards. Woman wafting past me in your predictable and whoreish Tierry Mugler Angel perfume: you smell like a sack of shit and you're knocking me sick..do one. Woman in Debenhams queuing to pay £2,985.99 for an A5-sized Radley handbag: you're a dick. Anyone dawdling and blocking my way: shift, you cunt!

IceNoSlice · 19/10/2013 16:53

Prambo I came on to ask how it went with Damien's mum - you were going to have The Chat today weren't you?

Just read your last post though, and you do make me larf. Have a cuppa tea Brew and calm it Smile. However, I will say in response (and this is VERY tongue in cheek) - why would an unemployed person go into town on a Saturday taking up space? Eh? Eh? You could go on Tuesday and avoid all those irritating other shoppers except the elderly

GameOfPrams · 19/10/2013 16:57

...Old people slouched in disability scooters blocking the aisles in M&S: aren't you supposed to be ill or summat? Piss off home in your free car to your winter fuel payment-heated bungalow. You're not even disabled, just old, smelly and a drain on the government; Bus timetables: I'm not versed in Mandarin - fuck off; Lonely old lady at bus stop asking me which bus I'm waiting for: what the buggering fuck has it got to do with you? And wipe that scone crumb off your beard; Debenhams bra-fitter who guessed my tit size as H: fuck you, you inept four-eyed lezzer.
