37 weeks pregnant with no2 and OH has taken DD1 to grandparents til Sunday so I can relax. Back hurts, belly huge, friends all busy and central london very sticky. Suddenly not sure what to do with myself. Feel I should be 'making the most of it'.

get a good book on your kindle/ereader if you have one and sit in your pyjamas eating junk food reading Grin

or sleep. I would probably sleep.

3 hour long bath with a good book. Eat the takeaway in the bath, rest the bowl on your bump. It's the best.

Munchies! I'm not sure you meant the actual sweets but suddenly they seem very appealing. Treat 1: a trip to the corner shop. Thank you!

Hmmm... 40w here....

Munchies....nom...!! Bugger and i've just got back in from a quick trip out!

Oh well.. minstrels will have to do coz i'm not going out again!

Just had 3 days of "unsupervised" time due to DP going to help a mate out (on the proviso that mobile was definitely on LOUD and in signal area)... unfortunately... kinda kept pottering!!!

D'oh!!

Agree though - DVD, remote, drinks, snacks... book.... if you feel you absolutely MUST do something, get your "corner" ready... make sure table near sofa you can reach with one hand when lo has arrived that you can put everything on! (Phone charger, ipad/similar... book/kindle... kindle charger... tissues... camera?... nibbles... )

I'm going to be sat crocheting clouds for a mobile for the LO.. ;)

I think pottering will be my early morning plan. So used to getting up at 5.30 that I'm sure a lie-in will be impossible. Think I'll pretend it's not 28degrees and have a long hot bath....
