I love marmite - is v. lovely with philadelphia

Talk to me about tits please.

Has anyone ditched the underwire? Know when you are meant to?

I have bought some horrible non UWs and wear them sometimes. But I keep reverting back to any old ones that will fit. Thankfully I'm not too big so spend most time at home hanging loose. I bought some new sports bras on the cheap in a sale last week and after three hours in one my back and chest were in agony. really must go get measured and buy those nice t-shirt non UWs I saw in M&S last week...

Still having tit pain when I get out of bed
How are your mega-norks coping iggs?

see this thread iggy

Well at a delicate 34 FF I hate the idea of the lack of underwire... but is starting to dig in... They don't actually hurt as much now, but still can't have anyone anywhere near them!

iggy I haz not ditched underwire - I am not prepared to let my nips hit my knees at such a young and tender age. Without underwire I'll look like a 1950s farmer's wife. I may as well just nip along to the Scottish woolen mill and buy myself a box-shaped brown skirt and be done with it. I'm planning on just buying bigger cup-sizes rather than going non-underwired - I just can't do it.

Firstly, try these back extenders as a very inexpensive way to get some more life out of your existing bras. In pregnancy your ribcage expands, so bras become too tight across the back. This is because all our internal organs are being squashed upwards as the baby has moved in to the space where they used to be. Lovely, thanks bubs.

Secondly, I found the biggest change to my breasts from pg was that they er, spread wider. i.e. the base of each breast is now wider and starts more under my arms. My old underwires dig in terribly and I don't think you're supposed to wear a bra that cuts in, especially when your breasts are developing milk duct stuff. I am so sick of spending money on bras. I look like a tragic old lady at the moment.

ski You just described my signature look.

pony the last thing i want is WIDE tits as well as huge ones

I haz got soem sports bra's that are ok... I have worn them a bit - d'you think they ok?!

iggy How can I break this to you? You are now on a path that involves weird things happening to your body which are completely outside your control and NOT what you ordered. But don't worry - it's nothing that years of plastic surgery won't be able to fix.

iggy I think you should simply go sans brassiere - who'd have the gall to comment?

pony will start saving for breast reduction surgery now Might improve my sitting trot anyway....

ski True - plus they'd prob lose an eyeball if they came too close...

haha boobies + sitting-trot = a 13 year old boy's wet dream.

Ow! Ow! Sitting trot (even at the best of times).

Have you seen this thread?

Ponymum I'm sorry but I don't read anything in that section.

ski Sorry, so sorry. Of course dear. You are perfectly entitled to be in complete denial for, ooo, another 5 or 6 months.

Now for anyone too scared to click on the link, it's a harmless little drama unfolding this evening, about a very overdue pregnant woman who has gone into labour while snowed in in a cottage somewhere high in the Peak district. She is udpating Mumsnet between contractions, and mountain rescue are currently on their way with a midwife and some gas and air.

Nice.

My delicate little flowers - how are you all fareing? How are you coping with the first week back at work? I was absolutely exhuasted last night and will be going pretty much straight home after I've been to the lawyer at 2 I think. Well, home via lovely, sweet, cuddly horse of course.

I went to the beautician last night and was in two minds whether to tell her or not because I knew she'd had 2 mc's last year. Transpired it was actually 3! Anyway she was really lovely and also feels very confident - they're doing tests on her now - sounds like there's something wrong with her uterine lining - but she's confident because she knows she falls easily - just needs it to hang on in there!

I'm wondering about "coming out" at work. 4 people know now (incl. manager) - but the thing is, I'm a very private person. My professional and personal lives have always been kept very much apart - in fact I used to refuse to even discuss any boyfriend I had because I always felt it was noyfb! So, I'm very reluctant to stand up and say "I've HAD SEX!!!!!"

still loaded with the cold and feeling shite looking forward to scan tomorrow though

Just tell them ski, then they really won't mess with you!

ski they'll guess soon enough

Good day yesterday. Took 2 hours to get into work, including an hour of walking to the Landie shop to collect it, then 2 hours into being at work school phoned to say it was closing.

So sledging in the afternoon it was, with LC and his friend. It's a hard life.

Getting niggly nervous about Monday's scan. iggy you mentioned you'd been given a prelim result from the scan - did I read that right - and you're waiting for confirmation after the blood test?

rots I got blood test results back yesterday too.. The downs risk from scan was 1: 1650 but after the biochemistry work was back - the adjusted risk was 1: 1675 - pretty good I reckon! The risk for Patau and Edwards was even lower - some ridiculous figure like 1: 12100

I used to have a landy a defender... sold the lovely boneshaker last year tho...

IT IS SNOWING IN LUNDUN!!!! YAY!!!!

curly/rots Yes, of course they will figure it out soon enough... possibly because they find me face down on my desk drooling! But... I work in a male-dominated environment (40 people on this floor, 2 full-time women!) and I'm not sure about telling yet. However, I have told my manager I'm not trudgeing across town to the other building with icy pavements!

iggy That's absolutely brilliat news about your scans/bloods - I hope you're going to relax a little now and enjoy it all! I'm so happy for you!

I'd Lurrrrrrve landy - but tbh I can't knock the Saab, it starts every time and it handles the snow well - well duh, I suppose it would what with being Swedish et al!
