becks ahhh, such a cute boy! Hope you're recovering ok and have managed some sleep.
Bluebell why, with these stained vests and old man belly you are really spoiling us! I'm exactly the same. I wiped my bump across the outside of the car yesterday while leaning in awkwardly in a clean white tshirt, rar. And I have the same sneezing issues - and laughing - no abs to get behind anything, I sound ridiculous!
photog in awe of your stamina at that long day at PP world! We were planning to go a couple of months ago but didn't manage to fit it in - def want to though! Lovely pic of your girl!
Anna so happy your ma had a good nights sleep, that can make a big difference. So do you have a move date? And oh god, it's my thighs that are bothering me most, they're elephantine. With like, lumps...just ugh!
pulpi what colour are you spraying the Ercols? Post a pic - sounds like a lovely Sat craft project! While you complete your forms, I've had conversations with three separate friends about emigrating to Canada post-Brexit! If only it were that easy (I have a Canadian ex and was going to move there at some point but I would have struggled to qualify) but along with Sweden, it would def be my country of choice if I could move elsewhere 
Beaut yay for healed bits - that's such a relief. But massive boo to the voms, that sounds truly miserable and I really hope you fee better today.
Cookies 'sweaty + concerned' made me giggle!!! 1.5hr for your last labour? WTAF? And a knife edge with your OH being uncontactable. Keep those thighs firmly together! Boo to wet beds - do you think she's got new-sibling jitters?
tams we're nearly due date buddies - are you feeling any twinges?! The cramp is hideous isn't it? I can't stretch properly as it always triggers it and sometimes then goes to my shin at the same time and I'm like...whaaat? Now I can't flex either way without making one side worse - it's horrible!!!
Yesterday, on balance was lovely. Despite waking every couple of hours and looking at my phone with increasing doom. By 4.30 I was having a little cry and apologising to the unborn one about its potentially shit life ahead. I really am so very sad about the outcome, on so many levels. Loved my pedicure, my feet look great if a little puffy and trotterish. Then had a wander about the shops in the sunshine and lunch at Wahaca. Although that later resulted in indigestion medication outweighing the Mexican food in volume! Home for a little lie down: "Hi, DP! Just swanning in after my luxury outing before I swan off again for dinner and birth pool collection with another friend! What's for DD's tea, now you've collected her from nursery?"
Bless him, he is a legend. Had lovely veggie mezze and baked Camembert at the pub with other friend, collected pool (EEK) and home at midnight with raging heartburn. And now I'm laying in bed with mint tea while DP tries to entertain DD and simultaneously chase out some plaster in the kitchen. I really should get up...
Kitchen should be done by end of July I guess?? We've had first fix of elecs and plumbing - I don't think any trades need to come back next week now, hooray!! The hold up is the plasterers not being available until 4 July, but it does give us a week to focus on having a good clean as most of the most messy stuff is done. So I'll try to maintain my out of character Zen as we go!
Oh while I was sitting on a chair in a shop yesterday, I felt a little cramps period pain in my lower bump and thighs. Just dropping that in. It made me panic a bit about not wanting it to happen yet. I had a bit more later last night. I'm hoping it was wind. I'm a bit concerned as I've booked my homebirth (I think) but the midders are meant to be coming round to do a (building!) site visit so they know where I live and can check access etc And that hasn't happened yet, so what do I do if I go into labour before? Ho hum! Right. I need to kick myself up my not unsubstantial bottom and get up and go and help DP make some toast
Happy weekend, all
