37 weeks here...3 kids...im.exhausted!
Im limited in outings due to spd :( and dh is working.

I haven't got any tips sorry :s

but so far we have baked,
bathed the dog (much to her utter disgust)
Had some lazy dvd days with snacks within sofa distance. :D
and dp has asked mil to have kids for a sleep over at weekend...I'm not getting out of bed sunday!

And I seem to be surviving on a diet of easter eggs and cider lollies.

Yup my diet is terrible now. I eat very little at the evening meal as smells make me quesy but I've managed to make my way through a tonne of Easter chocolate and cakes.

Kids seem to be needy and expecting more attention than usual. Probably because of impending arrival. But I'm done in and so want this pregnancy over with now.

No not at the mo am only 13 weeks but my god I feel your pain as I did last summers 6 week hols plus the heat wave heavily pregnant with an 8 and 3 year old my ds was born on the 8th of sep so ladies you have my massive sympathy! I can't give you and words of wisdom or tips I'm afraid as I cried most evenings! However am sending lots of tea and cake and gin for when it's all over! :)

30wks with twins (in other words freaking huge) and 3 to entertain for the hols. I have no tips as I've been building nursery furniture with my Erm "assistants". I'mggoing to have to release them on the park later as I'm done in and they are full of energy. The first wk is usually ok it's the 2nd that they get sick of easy things to do.

You're hardcore slightly

I have been using holiday clubs, thankfully they love them and we have some spare vouchers.

slightlyinsane · 10/04/2014 16:14

I wouldn't say hardcore maybe stupid! Really pleased my dad booked his holiday for now honest

buffythebarbieslayer · 10/04/2014 16:32

Yup I've cried more than usual

32 weeks and 2 kids, but really dreading half term when I'll be 39 weeks...
perhaps baby will be early and Grandma will be on duty?? < clutches at straws>
