Lippy I'm not impressed with your builders at all. I have half a mind to cancel my painting. I can see it is going to be the source of nervous breakdown just when I need to be revising in peace and quiet. Ho hum the place needs painting so badly and I am not that much of a feng sui type to care about that sort of thing, but it is so trashed after the two blokes who lived here last It needs paint like I need this Bubba out of my belly.
Katz - how will you get away with 8 nappies? Will you get more or do you have them from before and you have just topped up? I did that nappy calculator thing on kittykins and it said I'd need 24 to wash every 2 to three days. I have about 10 tots bots size 1, a couple of ella's house, lots of minki's stuffable mainly but 2 canoodles to try. two birth to potty I thought I'd try a couple of dinky diapers (or are they diddy?) I have quite a few tots bots and minki's in size 2 and three just because I have the money now thanks to my sure start grant but likely wouldn't later so though I would invest ainly now. I have a few mother ease wraps, a stacinator, some tots bots and a whole bunch of cotton bottoms that I got for next to nothing. I love washable wipes I got 50 on ebay for £3.99
Is anyone else extrememly faint at the moment? I can't stand anymore. I'm only 31 weeks and a day and I can't stand the back pain. My bump has me leaning forward because I am in agony.
Well I am back in college. I am tired out and I won't get home until 10pm. I am also extremely unimpressed with one of the learning centre staff. Has anyone else got absolutely no sense of humour? She joked (as another pregnant woman stood beside me) that it must be catching I am beyond jokes now, I want this baby out.
I have had cramps in the evening lately. I think I'll speak to the midwife. Like period pains right down to my knees. Infact just like the unbarable curse cramps. I hope mine improve after the baby otherwise all this was a rather fruitless exercise. Most people say they improve after having a child. I wonder if having cramps has anything to do with carrying the baby/labour type things. I honestly don't think I can carry this baby for another 9 weeks. His head is really really low now and he's getting heavy. He's a pretty big baby. In a way I wouldn't mind him coming early. I'm too tired and my back can't take it.
Specially the college thing. I don't know how many more weeks I can keep coming I am too tired.
Ok now I have finished moaning I bought some really cool baby toys in boots today. Also some sheets for the cot bed I haven't bought yet. I know which one I am getting but I won't have it delivered until the painting is done.
Oh yes I forgot to say; Dad arrived back from holiday the other day and came around. He told my mother about the baby while he was away. He said it was a 'good' thing he told her while away, which translated into 'she couldn't verbally harrass you because she was too many miles away' and it seems he has diffused things while relaxing and going to choral functions. Well she hasn't phoned since being back which is a good thing. Dad keeps emphasizing that she 'loves' me which obviously means she is upset.
Thats the thing about love. There is no lack of love in the world just worthy vessels to carry it in. Plenty of people do the worst things to those they 'love' and I think love's a pretty good scape goat for all things unacceptable, like it can somehow excuse the obscene. I'd be pretty choked up I suppose if my daughter didn't trust or like me much. Perhaps she is understanding the true gravity of what our relationship represents and its about time she took some responsibility. God I feel like her mother sometimes, even my Dad expects me to excuse her/forgive her - like the child who is sulking petulantly. Dad's says she loves us 'too much' yeah so much it almost sucked the life out of us... Anyway I better get off. I won't be on again until tomorrow and thought I'd catch up a bit.
Well I have everything apart from my cot bed. I bought that nipple cream this morning so I just need to have the baby now. I am pleased to find that I have spent less than I thought and have saved £300 pounds I think I'll get a TFT portible tv to watch wimbledon on in the maternity ward
I can't believe we have another thread, how many is that now?
