YAY - congrats PFJ, Siikibam and Sal (lovely, lovely pics, you look amazing!).

Hope you are OK PFJ, thinking of you and sending lots of love.

Nothing going on here but still feeling really sick. Glad to hear everyone else (apart from VS who has been doing crafts and painting AND housework all day... ) is also feeling knackered and overwhelmed. DH came home when I talked to him after a particularly horrible bout of the runs, then spent the afternoon/evening talking to Sky about subscriptions whilst my friend and I ran around getting DD and her daughter tea . I came to the sofa in protest and he has put her to bed.

Have finally posted some photos of me - first one is of me last pregnancy - will get DH to take photo tonight so I can show how much neater my bump is this time (and how my arms haven't got so fat - why did I let anyone near me with a camera last time???)

I found you all!

Our internet has been down for a day or 2, and my parents are here waiting on me hand & foot this week & prob most of next too, so I haven't had a chance to come on & see what's been going on.

A quick look at the list means a few more congratulations are in order, so well done everyone who've popped since I last congeatulated, and good luck to whoever pops before I get a chance to come back again.

George is doing really well, mostly sleeping well and doesn't seem to stop bfing, ever. I'm still really sore after my section but can't wait until I hopefully get my freedom back after my 6 week check and am able to drive again. It's frustrating having to rely on people to do everything for me.

Oooo, my tea's just arrived after my nap earlier!

See you all soon x

hello again everyone - just to let you know I am (fingers crossed) in labour - contractions 5 minutes apart lating a minute and a half - pool is filling and midwife is on alert (about to go out for dinner with her dh!) for when it all gets too much. Will try and post as things go.

Sal, he is still that chilled.
He has always been a little angel tbh, he is 3 now and has hit the whingy stage but I think that's my fault cos he's a proper mummy's boy

Good Luck Aussie
Am very impressed that you are so unphased about labour that you plan on keeping us updated!! Gives me hope that mine won't be too bad [deluded first-timer emoticon]

GOOD LUCK Aussie Diva!! Hope all goes well!

Good luck, AussieDiva -- all sounds v. promising...

Good luck aussiediva!

xx

Oh so glad all is ok PFJ!

You go away for a couple of hours and babies seem to be coming all over the place good luck Aussiediva am very as am still not due for 2 weeks am starting to feel I will be the last one standing oh well

Aussiediva - am amazed and don't even know what to say - very impressed you're still keeping everyone updated now!!! Good luck!

Oooh, Moominsmummy - your DS is so cute!

ooo good luck aussie!

thanks sal - there are definitely times when he is less than cute though!

well if it makes anyone feel better I have just heard from my friend who definitely has the worst luck in pregnancy.

She had pre-eclampsia and Obstetric Cholestasis last time and is being monitored for early signs of it this time. She can barely move due to SPD and has today been diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes. I shall now shut up moaning about slightly achey legs and other such minor ailments...

Right - I have just added some pics of my bump - click on my name as I don't seem to have the little ticket thingie next to the envelope. Pics are very recent - taken about 20 min ago!

GOOD LUCK AUSSIE! So exciting!

Loads and loads of congrats to siikibam fab to hear that you had a relatively easy time of it x

sal - soooooooo gorgeous. Lovely, lovely boy you have there. You can tell us about him as much as you want to x

Glad all going well with George knitter - sounds like you have DH well trained!

I had a good chat with DP - told him am struggling a bit and he was great. He will take over looking after DSD this weekend and take a couple of days off next week, plus he will tell work he cannot work next weekend. So am feeling much more chilled now

Oh no Mum2b you are another one of the neat bump people with no other weight.....I might have to hate you now a little bit

bunnyrabbit, honeybee and PFJ congratulations!

Had my last midwife appointment (hopefully, unless I am overdue..). Glad to hear I am not the only one who is knackered nad having lots of take aways, had a giant curry (just to help things on their way, obviously....

Good luck AussieDiva!

Lovely bump Mum2b - am jealous about your legs!

I have just eaten my third cake of the day. I think that might explain why I am not one of the neat bump people.

well, you need to keep your strength up (off to get ben and jerry's)

'Sxactly. [Ellie mumbles through mouthfulls of cake]

Off to bed now, night all. No MNing til tomorrow evening cos have DSD's mad mate round tomorrow so am taking them out ALL day so house is not completely trashed.

lol Ellie your not alone my bump is more of a body bump thus have not posted a lovely picture!

No one has been allowed near me with a camera in several months!

Right, really going to bed now.

sal- he's SO beautiful! congrats to you and congrats to PFJ -hope you feel better soon. go aussiediva -good luck! i had acupuncture this afternoon so am hoping that might get things going..

Congratulations, PFJ! Sorry to hear you're not well, my first CS took ages to get over, so take care of yourself!

Congratulations siikibam! You are very lucky to have so many experts in your family! Well done!
