I will now make a huge idiot of myself...

[openerofjars]

...but that last BH made my eyes water. And the previous two weren't very comfortable, either.

Um. I have a surveyor coming round to the house on Monday and I also booked in to get my roots done for Monday afternoon.

We are trying to get DS through bath time and bedtime at the mo'.

And DH wants to go and get a takeaway after DS is in bed.

The house is in a state as well.

Look, this isn't a veery convenient time.

Okay, if things are kicking off, which I hope they aren't and bet they aren't now I've started a thread about it, how can I slow it down/stop it for a couple of days?

Hi Mr OJ!

(does he understand he is expected to post when you can't?)

God, you go to get a honey sarnie and all the books open.
Ummmm...

4.30 7lb 12 and another gorgeous DS.

Oh no, I don't know 2.40 7lb6 DD...can I go either way?
No. First stands. I haven't got enough to bet with really!

Well done Jars, not far to go now, so very soon you will be snuggling your baby and DS will come home being the best big brother x

Hi Mrjars!

He will be assuming a huge responsibility...hope he'll have some time to tend to you in between sorting us out!

He knows.

Hi papa jars. random twins would be brilliant.

I am going to take advantage of not being in labour to go and get some sleep before the bloody kids wake me up with the birds tomorrow.

When I log on tomorrow morning there had better be some exciting news OP

Good luck!

What a lovely thread! Reminds me of the 6 hours I spent last March with the G&A mask clamped between my teeth. I kidd ye not, no unadulterated air passed my lips... DH was quite concerned that I wasn't getting enough oxygen until I pointed out the 'air' part (clue is in the name my love).
Good luck, lots of G&A and breathe deeply! Xx
