Still going then octo? glad you came back. I popped in and popped out but this is my kind of thread with all his delish food, might stick around if thats OK? Oh I suppose there might be a baby at some point too. How exciting.
I'm feeling very fragile at the moment have hit the stand still 34 ish weeks when I'm sure time stands still for a while, sends me into the dark side every pregnancy, this is No.3.
Goats cheese (very hot under the grill) on toast with salad for me tonight. Yummmmmm, I'm in France too so I won't listen to, "should you be eating that".

Mrsjaffabiffa · 02/04/2007 17:20

Have to admit it was the Aero Bubbles that did it for me.

octo · 03/04/2007 12:19

Bored now and still 12 days to go!

NatalieJane · 03/04/2007 13:26

Sorry I haven't been about, had alsorts going on this past week, hardly had time to sleep, let alone MN!

Anyway, has there been any DIY sweeps or knicker sniffing going on?

Hello All - nothing to report! But have found new way to bring on lbaour - getting the appeal date for your sons school 4 days after your due date - flapping about like maniac - completely lost all control, flapping about like maniac, contraction like pains, tears and hyperventilation!!

Maybe elective section is the way forward??? - like tomorrow!

lulumama · 04/04/2007 13:57

stop flapping, have a cup of tea and wait....

frumpygrumpy · 04/04/2007 14:08

Hi lulu do you know how to get boiled eggs to colour themselves pink or red? I have just started a thread on it as I want to give eggs to DD and her friend to decorate. Short of spraying them with fake tan I just can't do it!!

lulumama · 04/04/2007 14:09

food colouring in the water when you boil them?

frumpygrumpy · 04/04/2007 14:11

did that for about a year

nothing happened but thank you for the answer

octo · 04/04/2007 14:18

can't you just paint them?

calm now ...!

octo · 04/04/2007 16:04
