I didn't take the castor oil containing indigestion pills yet btw

Made it through the funeral, have been having aching and twinges all day. Gradually becoming more uncomfortable . DH is home now so taken paracetamol and having a warm bath and lay down - if it is something then it will continue, if not it will wear off and I will head to my book group meeting...

Work today was busy but good. My customers/clients are getting the drift that I'm not going to be around after Wednesday and a couple have sent some really sweet emails.

PMSL JKS - glad you bought the pen. Finally you can take that off your list.

Plum - forgot to say. Time with my Dad without GF was great. We had good fun, he spent time with DS and really enjoyed himself. He bought me lunch and a rose for the garden. Apparently they might be coming up this way (to stay elsewhere) the week the baby is due. We talked a bit about GF but I didn't push anything. Feeling fairly positive about it.

Ali an amazing list of dones there!

Flame - Hope you are OK. My bump is aching too but I think its a pulled muscle / Braxton Hicks which always seem worse in the evening. Just ruddy uncomfortable. Laying on the sofa does help but difficult with small children etc. Take it easy.

Flame dc3 was like that everynight I went to bed, thought this is it, that went on for a couple of weeks (sorry), I got a date for induction was throughly pissed off, that weekend the only night I went to bed thinking well definitely nothing happening to night was the night she came, and in the space of 4 hours so there is hope!!

playing play doh with dd2 and used my shoe template to make a shoe, it looked really good for a first go with play doh,

now need to work out how to make a bigger one

Flame - annoyed for you. Sounds really uncomfortable / painful. Hope you are taking paracetamol.

Plum you are so creative!

I couldn't get to sleep as bump aching with pulled muscle. Woke DH up at 4am to get me some paracetamol and water. Managed to get to sleep in the end but really tired today.

Last full day of work - woo hoo!
Sounds like DH had a much better day at work yesterday as a few things were cancelled due to 18 staff being off sick at his school - stomach bug I think. Need DH to be in good mood to cope with me and DS!
