Aw, Hippy, what a good big boy 
Thanks for your FB advice oh wise and experienced parents! (Red, have joined in yours, late to the party as usual...) DD is in bed after some but not too much trying-it-on. There's a mattress on the floor but no rail and no duvet clips - and her door doesn't close properly and we had no luck finding the bits that actually hold the stairgates (either of them) to the wall. Thank you for not saying 'why didn't you keep them with the stairgates?'
I remember putting them somewhere safe, ha ha ha
Only place we haven't looked yet is the attic. Try that in the morning and then buy a new one I think - only way to make them turn up for sure 
So this is going to be all a bit me me but on top of that excitement we had our 12 wk scan this morning! One baby, present and correct, if very unco-operative
. And they've jumped me to 13 wks which is fab (remind me of this when I go overdue and am resisting an induction...) And I had the nicest phlebotomist(sp?) in the world and thus did not faint (Loti please please have a restful weekend!) Saw friends this afternoon so started spreading the news. And told DD who said 'I know' 
AND and and - my friend had her little girl today, a sister for my god-daughter, a month early(!) but both ok, no details yet but
