Who's going to join me in 'back to school in the morning' preparedness? PE bags, uniform, projects. What have I forgotten?

I have found that Mozilla Firefox is working for me but google chrome and Internet explorer are displaying white pages,hope this helps those having problems and apologies to those who have seen this message several times.

Now, nothing appears to be posting for me!

I have used Safari, Chrome and Firefox and nothing is working apart from this thread. I guess it means I really do need to pack something for leaving hospital in my hospital bag doesn't it?

Oh no, Mnet not working. Is it time for the zombie plan?

Crack open the tinned goods.

Off to town then to buy ds a coat Nightmare of topman!

"MNHQ, MNHQ Please report to thread for urgent information, thank you"

YEY, they heard me, its back!

By the time were actually discharged, I would have left naked, just to leave. In the cut new fashion frontiers in a black stretchy maternity dress, white opaque surgical stockings and pink crocs.

I wore what I went in in - maternity t-shirt, maternity denim skirt and birkenstocks. I had another outfit packed but it involved jeans and I was too bruised to consider anything trouser-like

I purposely choose a skirt with ds. I bought especially for the occasion as it was my 1st baby and I didn't know any better . With dd1 I went in wearing a dress and came out wearing the same.
My reasons for wearing a dress/skirt: I was scared trousers might hurt any stitches I might have and did have.
So I'd say something loose fitting, yoga pants would fit the bill too I think.

I'm impressed with all the people that went home wearing the same outfit they went in with. I sweated so much during the initial phase of labour alone that my clothes were almost unsalvageable.

But I didn't labour in those clothes. I swapped into my birth nighty the minute I got to the hospital because my normal clothes were too hot, it being November and December.

I ended up wearing a special shirt & maternity jeans. We didn't know if we were having a boy or girl. The name we had for a girl means something & I bought a shirt with that on. We had a girl so I wore the shirt & one of my favourite photos is of us 2 walking into our house for the first time with me covered in her name image. So if her name is Butterfly I had a shirt with butterflies on (she's not called Butterfly btw!!) I sound a bit mad - I wanted baby very much & was very excited!!
