Morning all. Hope everyone's feeling well - it's Friday at last!
I had a bit of a disaster Wednesday night. Long story short, someone spooked my horse as I was leading him out to the field and he threw a fit, so I let go of the rope. Cue loose horse hooning off around the field, standing on his lead rope at a flat out gallop and pulling himself over. I thought he'd broken his bloody neck. Luckily he rolled over, but he ended up in a bramble bush and has cut his ears, head, eyelid, nostril and foreleg. Only superficial, but very sore. Not only that, I pulled a muscle in my bump during my frantic waddle trip up the field to see if he was ok, so have spent the last 36 hours walking around bent over and hobbling around like some cranky old woman. No serious injuries on either side, but was horrible to see him fall and equally horrible to worry that Bean might have been hurt when I had the initial pain of the pulled muscle. Of the 15 people who were in the field watching the incident - one of whom was the woman who scared him in the first place - not a single one asked if I was ok when I traipsed, bloody and teary-eyed, back past them to the stables. Argh!
Anyway, that's my whinge done for the day!
Hi Lily, glad you can join us. Will cross fingers that you aren't late, but it's nice to have new faces 
Do you know if you're having a boy or a girl?
Had our breastfeeding clinic through NCT this week. Really useful in terms of practicing comfortable positions, what to expect when etc. I didn't realise a new-born's tummy was so small! I mean, I knew it was small, but we're talking the size of a small marble. Tiny! 
bunny, sorry but I had a bit of a snort over that. Sounds like the sort of thing I would do! I already have stretch marks all over my butt and thighs though, so not sure I would even notice any more.
I know you need to use non-bio powder, but is scented fabric softener ok for baby things? Should probably start washing this weekend now I have drawers to put stuff in!
