Easy does it JKS.
Am having a bit of a fed up day today. Can't get motivated, brain blank. yuk. wish it were spring/warmer. gardening would be good. got lots of stuff to do but don't want to do any of it.

Morning :)

Anon - we are saving a fortune not drinking very much while I'm pg. We have noticeably more money left in the monthly food/wine etc 'allowance' . Having said that, we're about to order some cases so that we have some here ready for after the baby is born!!

Mini - I do sets of lifts and tilts every day and I'm sure it has helped - I had worse SPD sooner with DS.
On the recommendation of someone on here, I also bought a pair of maternity Spanx knicker-things. They are great, and have back support etc built in and I do notice a difference when I'm wearing them.

Slept much better last night, and I'm not so sore this morning.

silicone around bath
prune massive hydrangea

Thats enough or I will lose my oomph

DH decided to stop drinking for a while back in November time and obv I'm not drinking very much and he's really noticed our stocks not dropping! Although i look forward to the 1/2 a bottle (or more!) each days in the future
