Morning Dippy - seems like we're never posting at the same time
I got some of that horns and halos body wash yesterday, it does smell lovely!

Hi girls, hope you're all doing OK. Sending labour vibes to everyone who wants them (which I guess is everyone by now).

Good luck Pesha. Hoping you already ave your LO in your arms.

morning all
Matthew says he doesn't want to go to storytime at the library, what's the betting he changes his mind, AFTER it's over?!

morning everyone!
and morning pesha - hope you're all done and having tea and toast (like me)
school run soon, then back for a rest..........aaaaahhhhhhh
hope we all have a relaxing day!

Emmymummy · 24/04/2007 08:37

Morning! No baby action here - bah! Reckon it's gonna be a few more days yet, even though I am feeling increasingly exhausted and uncomfortable. Dh is being great and is off doing the school run again, but baby needs to come now or it'll be back to me again tomorrow. Have got to the point where I don't even want to drive now, which isn't like me at all. I just want to hunker down here and stay put.

Have got my NCT crowd coming over this morning, half of whom have had their babies, whilst the other half of us are still waiting. See, people keep bringing tiny babies over to visit and it's still not working .

Am big and tired and heavy and have had enough now. And I dont want to have the sweep on Thursday- want it to come before then!

maveta · 24/04/2007 09:08

*CONGRATS PESHA**!!!! At last baby pesha joins us! thrilled for you babe, can´t wait for pics.. enjoy your babymoon! x

Morning girls! Bit of a crappy night tossing and turning but had a bit of a lie in so feel okay. Can´t think what to do today.. was going to go into town to see my friend and have lunch with her but I don´t know if I can face getting the train and wandering around in town. Just sounds like a big journey at the moment (it so isn´t)...

The TENS I ordered a week last friday STILL hasn´t arrived!! Maybe baby is being considerate and waiting for it???

maveta · 24/04/2007 09:39

Hellloooooo??? Have you all gone off to have babies then?

maveta · 24/04/2007 09:47

Oh FINE THEN! I´m off to shower, get dressed and start the day... [sticking tongue out emoticon]

Morning ladies, and many Congratulations to Pesha. Was she having a boy or girl do we know? I bet she is well relieved.

Maveta, not sure who you ordered your TENS though, and I am sure it won't have been Boots, you being out in Mallorca, but mine still hadn't shown up after a week, so I phoned them. I am glad I did, as they had had problems with the internet ordering process, and I may not have got it. They sent it out the same day when she heard I was past 37 weeks.

CD, cannot believe you are working this pm - mad woman!!

Lots of love to all those still waiting - still thinking of you all and wishing you speedy births when the time comes.

xx

Back again now DD2 is sleeping and DD1 is at Pre-School -

Feeling VERY heavy and waddly today ..... 1st time I have really felt like this .....

Congratulations!! - To Pesha - Can't BELIEVE we don't know whether it is a boy or a girl - keeping me in suspense .....Wonderful news though, esp after all the bloomin' stopping and starting, poor thing ...... Looking forward to hearing more and seeing pics etc - LOVED all the pics I got via email yesterday - everyone's babies are soooo SCRUMMY ....

I WANNA MEET MINE!!!!!

Bugmum · 24/04/2007 10:42

Congrats to Pesha!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whoo-hoo - she must be soooooooo relieved after all that messing about.

MW came this morning, to have a second go at doing a sweep; still not favourable . She reckons this weekend at the earliest (is having another go at a sweep on Thursday - lucky me!). If no baby at the weekend, I'll have to see the consultant (for that, read 12-year-old registrar) on Monday, and they'll want to book me a C-section date So I really, really need any spare labour vibes you have going. Not that there's many of us to send/receive the vibes now. Elkie - I know how you feel!

Emmymummy - I just want to hunker down, too. Didn't take DS to any of his little groups last week (BAD mummy) and I hate going out because of the comments and stares. NO, I HAVEN'T HAD IT YET! What do these people think: that I forgot and left the baby at home????

40+2

CaptainDippy · 24/04/2007 10:44

Awwwwww, Bugmum honey - >>>> My MW's won't do sweep til I am at least a week over - hoping I won't get that far anyway ..... [[hugs]

Told you the halos N Horns stuff was YUMEEEE, didn't I, katy!!? just imagine a little scrumpy newborn all covered in it ...... Yum Yum Yum ......

CaptainDippy · 24/04/2007 10:51

No one to talk to .....

Bramshott · 24/04/2007 11:05

Popping in to send in all of your directions! They will be here soon!!

Bramshott · 24/04/2007 11:08

Hi ladies - this is swift and cheeky - Verbaudet emailed me a 40% off one item offer last week but I seem to have deleted it, and I want to get this for using in the garden as Orla managed to get sunburnt this last weekend . Does anyone else have the code?!?

CaptainDippy · 24/04/2007 11:08

Thank you! Hope you are doing ok ....

Bramshott · 24/04/2007 11:09

Oh, and congrats to Pesha!! (Bramshott slopes off to feed clearly starving baby who is being put second to catching up on Mumsnet!)

Bramshott · 24/04/2007 11:10

Doing okay thanks CD, although Orla wouldn't settle after 5.00 feed last night so have been up since then . . .
