Morning all !
Got to, zampa and sparkly, thanks for the reassurance about tiredness, it seems we are all a similar date, so expect it is definitely related to the amount of growth at the moment. I am utterly exhausted, and just can't get enough sleep! I don't remember this from before, so maybe it's also worse because I am running about after the other two, and dd 2 needs a lot of lifting and carrying, and her wheelchair weighs a ton, so that probably doesn't help. Plus, she is tube fed through the night so an unbroken nights sleep is a luxury. I remember with my last 2, I reached a point where I felt so full of health and vitality that I felt amazing, I really hope I get that feeling again ! Think it was a bit later on though.
Broody, I love the older names too. Both dd s have got quit traditional names, and although we haven't yet given it much thought, I love names like Nell, Florence, Alexandra, and so on. My mum however, just casts her mind back to when she was having me in the 70 s and thinks of what was popular then ! Those names I am not so keen on, whereas she thinks the name I like are just old lady Names. 
Fleur , don't let the comments bother you, you would be more worried if you weren't getting bigger! I get a big bump too, from quite early on, but I wonder if it's because I am only small? 5 foot 3, and quite a slight frame, so my thinking is there is no where else for it to go but out! My bump still looks quite small in the mornings, but by the evening it's unmistakable and quite hard.
Muddy, ours is a 2008 cameleon. It's not really cumbersome, but the front wheels are quite widely spaced, but it does have lots of growing room, and I loved it. I know what you mean about changing the colours, we need a new basket in sand, but apparently it's now discontinued, so I think I will email bugaboo to see if I can get it or if not to check that the new fabrics etc are compatible with a 2008 chassis before I buy any. It might be worth you doing the same?
Lucky, it does sound like your friend had a bit of pnd. Babies definitely do have their own personalities from the start, and although I would agree it's a big cycle of feeds, sleep and nappies for a bit, they are utterly mesmerising, and gradually you see their little expressions, and the way they begin to communicate their needs and their likes and dislikes is their personality coming through. It's lovely! I missed out on most of that with dd 2 as she so poorly, and I can't wait to experience it again
We get some comments too:
"At our age ? You must be mad!" I am 39 and dh is 40 ...
"How are you going to cope with 3?" I think I'll manage...
"It's a big age gap isn't it" dd 1 is 6, and dd 2 is 4, so not really?
Oh well. Off to sign up to Emmas diary now. Missed out on the bounty pack, and still not got a maternity exemption certificate, so going to make the most of this one ..
