Ive been searching for the threads where we measure our bumps with loo roll but to no avail as i wanted to see how i compare as i look and feel huge!

Im 28 weeks and 3 days and i take 9 sheets! So does anyone else have their stats for me? :-)

Can I just ask why do you measure with toilet paper Grin and all loo roll is different size sheets Wink

TheBreastmilksOnMe · 26/09/2013 22:42

It seemed a good way of measuring according to the other thread, i thought all sheets were a standard size? Plus i cant find my tape measure! :-)

The only reason I found out was because dh bought some cheap stuff, I bought Andrex and the sheets are bigger on the Andrex! I'm only 14+4 weeks so I doubt my measurement will mean much Smile congrats too! Thanks

Well i didnt think id be learning something new at this time of night! Looks like I'll have to include a variable in the poll then:

Gestation: 28.3 weeks
Girth: 9 sheets
Brand: Tesco 'luxury' toilet roll

Congratulations too K8ee, feel free to add your stats though, you can check back in in a few weeks and see your progress!

Feeling mahusive - hubby actually had to help me roll off the bed this evening. Although he is now snoring away, so I'm on my own if I get stuck Blush
