Will this become the live birth thread? Will Lodger 1 leave? Will waves be smiling throughout this thread?

Doula is on call, bags are packed, acrobat was a teeny 14 weeks foetus when I started posting - he is about to become DC3, I'll stop being sick and a whole new chapter will begin.

Jax I will pm you the recipe tomorrow when I've got hold of it.

Agree with the baking philosophy.... I find baking with my DDs always adds the love.

Allalonenow · 21/07/2013 22:30

Ahh Jax someone must have read Midnight's Children to you when you were a babe in arms, for you to have that view of cooking. Wink

Hope you get a bit of rest and calm tonight waves, glad you did not go the curry route.

wavesandsmiles · 21/07/2013 22:40

I'd like the recipe too please, especially as once acrobat is out I should be able to enjoy the tasting part of the baking as well as the making Smile

allalone I think you have just inspired me to reread that book.

Acrobat has hiccups at the moment, hoping they settle down soon as I would quite like to try to get some sleep.

themidwife · 21/07/2013 23:19

Jacob can I have one pot brownie recipe please? Sounds Yummy! Waves you must just totally stuff yourself after acrobat is born! Lots of time to make up for! Smile

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 22/07/2013 06:59

Ha ha yes! Thanks Jax!! Grin

MissStrawberry · 22/07/2013 07:37

Good morning Waves and everyone.

Bit cross now as I now have the urge to make my chocolate and prune refrigerator bars and it isn't even 8 o'clock!

springytoto · 22/07/2013 07:51

ooh! recipe please Miss - I have both those ingredients.

Hope you're ok today waves xx

MissStrawberry · 22/07/2013 07:51

Kate is in labour.

Come on Acrobat!!

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 22/07/2013 08:00

yes come on acrobat! Your time is up, get out! Grin

PyroclasticFlo · 22/07/2013 08:21

Full moon today Waves, hopefully this will be the day that Acrobat arrives, it's an auspicious time and a reminder of all the magical blessings and light shining on you from all of the people who care about you (not least the many people on here).

All will be well, I'm sure of it!

Morning all, especially waves, and most especially young Acrobat (perhaps the heat out here made him think - er no thanks, Better wait until it's cooler!

I'd love savoury cheesecake recipe and the one pot brownies. Actually, I'd love to have waves' brownie recipe too!

CurlyFox · 22/07/2013 08:30

Morning Waves I see the royal baby is on its way made me wonder if our mumsnet royal baby acrobat was on his way too????

MissStrawberry · 22/07/2013 08:34

Flipping heck Waves! You have to hurry up as if Kate has a boy she might nick your name and then everyone will think you copied her ShockGrin.

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 22/07/2013 09:06

Now it's not a contest do let's be reasonable.

COME ON ACROBAT let's be having you!!!!!!

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 22/07/2013 09:07

Sorry waves no pressure at all and breath......

themidwife · 22/07/2013 09:11

It's my DD's birthday tomorrow! She might share it with royal baby & acrobat it seems!! Smile

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 22/07/2013 09:17

Any party plans midwife? How many candles?

LiveItUp · 22/07/2013 09:18

Ha! at no pressure from all of us. COME ON ACROBAT Grin

All these recipes sound lip-smackingly good, so rather than lots of pm'ing, could simple ones be posted directly on here please? If not, then please all pm me your delicious sounding concoctions as my DCs break up tomorrow and we will enter baking frenzy territory. Thanks all x

springytoto · 22/07/2013 09:34

oh come on, put them on the page Wink

Allalonenow · 22/07/2013 09:40

I'd love the prune and chocolate bar recipe, if you've got time Strawberry please.

gertrudetrain · 22/07/2013 09:53

Obsessively checking on acrobats progress down the birth canal :-) more interesting than the future monarchs. Cone on acrobat! Are you actually going to be able to get used to calling him anything but acrobat waves? I know that's his name to me niw Grin

BerkshireMum · 22/07/2013 09:55

My first thought when I heard Kate was in labour was to look on here for an update from waves!

Come on acrobat!
