Hey Storm - probably sthg to get the practice to pursue. You don't want a situation where the receptionist (who may be new?) starts trying to interpret results. Could be dangerous!
Savage side effects or benefits?!? #smallheadpreferredplease!
Nurse what's on your Netflix list? I don't have and rarely get to watch much tv so want to od on boxsets ;). And how comfortable are you talking to your DM about the bf thing? Sounds really unfair of her to lay that on you. Surely the answer is you'll do what you need to and if she doesn't want to see it, maybe she shouldn't spend time with bubs (too harsh??).
Hiya Hisash. Welcome! Wouldn't say I'm feeling desperately healthy tbh, but I am a bit in wonder at what is gong on inside me, so not all bad! 
What massive book Tea?!?
Blueberry great news! I also had a ME appt that I didn't cry at!!! Thought that meant I was getting on top of these bloody hormones until I saw a group of police (hospital is St Thomas', opposite Parliament) and whilst I really wanted to just say thanks for the work that they do, I started tearing up and getting emissions and just couldn't. Grrrr. Pregnancy tears!
Rasperry cold shower sucks! And that sounds like an awful start to yesteday!! Hope today was better. No swimming pool you can slip into to use the showers? Or, though may be a bit of a trek, you're welcome to pop round here if SE18 isn't too too far??
Rustler omg that fox stuff is so lovely!! Where are you getting them from??
Rise & Newbie I'm struggling with socks too - given up on tights though. Leggings are my friend!!

Esmes* I had a similar moment earlier where I started to think about the (still scary but) nice bits to come as a first time mum. Humbling to think about the responsibility we're taking on for a whole new person. All those firsts yet to come are overwhelming and tantalising at the same time. Terrified but starting to feel excited - which is a helluva way from the ambivalence I had at the beginning (when we found out that despot 2 forms of contraceptive and a morning after pill our little fighter had decided she was going to be joining us anyway!!).
Nurse15 jeez - glad you're ok. Don't need that stress at the best of times let alone when you're heavily pregnant!!!
Redblu are work being sympathetic? If you're signed off sick for medical reasons then it has to be because it's necessary. Just don't overdo it by doing other stuff!!
And I totally agree with Rustler, Rise, Esmes, Savage & anyone else who said we need to keep in touch post births. I can't say what a godsend this group has been for advice and support!!
