What days of the week are best for day time meets? Also are mornings or afternoons easier?

January - I really want to go back to Cafe Continental in Durham! Any takers for coffee & cake?

Get twiddling them nips!

Nah you don't want to nipple twiddle, you jsut get all sticky form the colostrum and it takes up a hand that could otherwise be used for chocolate eating!

Hope things turn out better than you might think they are going to . A lot can happen between now and friday :)

Hot bath? Hot Curry? Hot Sex?

Well mine aren't leaking yet so I wouldn't get sticky, but sadly one effect of high levels of progesterone for me is that I find that whole sensation very aversive! (The 9 weeks between pill and pregnancy were great!)

We have been eating curry every day though. Both of us - even though I'm the only one who can take it!

No comment on that last one!

LOL @ Indith

hello everyone
how's the bouncing going Leggy? (see how cunningly I disguised it there??)
How's everyone else?

Looks like the bouncing worked! OR maybe eating curry 4 days on the trot.

Anyway, guess I'll be back in a few days or so! FrozenNorth will probably get an update before then so I'll rely on her to keep y'all informed as to the outcome.

oooh what's happening?? Are you having contractions? Have your waters gone?
I NEED LUNCH but can't leave my computer now

Yes where's the live labour thread?

some people - no manners!

No news to report yet :)

crikey I should come here more often - weddings and babies and all sorts... hope all is going well for everyone

STOP PRESS

Leggy's baby girl born 7.04pm at home, 9lb 4oz - all doing well. Go Leggy and DH!!!

So :) she got her homebirth!!

wow! :) Congratulations!

Oh wow, congratulations Leggy! I am so impressed you managed it at home. And a healthy 9 pounder!

Birth announcements make me feel all emotional:).

Brilliant!!! Congrats to Leggy, MrLeggy and LittleLeggy!

Next meet up we will meet the new arrival! Shall we stuff Leggy and the new baby full of cake?

Congratulations :o

Yayy congratultions!!!

Stealth - you got a mention in the Mumsnet Roundup!

Congratulations! Wonderful news! Well done Leggy!

Yes yes we need to have cake. We need to play pass the parcel baby. I was snuggling an 8 week old today [soppy :)]. New babies are so scrummy. Bet she smells amazing .

We need to know a name too!

Sticky! Good to see you! How are you? It has been ages.

Tomorrow I shall report back from the Butterpie wedding

yay well done leggy, sorry I missed the pacing, been laid up with a bug and couldn't even face sitting up to turn the computer on. cake sounds like a plan though, it is officially recommended* to help you recover from birth.

Indith, I shall see you tomorrow, M&H are coming so hopefully they will just run round with your 2 while we get to drink and eat chat.

• well I swear by it anyway, mind I think a nice slice of cake fixes most things....

Congratulations Leggy. TBH I visited this thread this morning to find out about your birth.

Ooh, Congratulations Leggy!

Just popping in to tell you all that the wedding was brilliant :D Photos are gradually going up on the wedding website so you can see the full aceness of it all!

I'll pop a link up when it is done.

Glad you had a nice time Butterpie, sorry we had to dash off without saying goodbye!

I've bumped the Great North East Meet up thread again as I think it is time for another attempt to get some of the Newcastle/Sunderland lot that we know are out there, plus it is an excuse for more cake!
