Brilliant! I had a question from one of the six year olds at school today:
Why is your tummy so big?
Because there's a baby in there
Is your tummy going to crack and a baby comes out?
Er.... Kind of Smile

that's lovely blushingmare.

DD has now read in her library book that baby's can hear voices from very early on. She's decided its first word should be her name followed by "sister" so she keeps talking to my tummy "Jane, sister, Jane, Sister, Jane, Sister" (her name is not Jane obviously she uses her own)

Hi, kids can be so sweet. My DS makes me think I moan too much today when he got up off the floor he said ' Mummy my baby tummy hurts too much today, I think I can't play on the floor anymore'. He is only 2.6!
