welcom abaord anyos!! hope you are well.

greenslw - yes, i thought it was cos of the chemicals. Also so colours don't run (just like you would with your clothes) and plus.. baby stuff... people love baby stuff and touch it! i washed absolutely everythign and even the teddies all got a thorough wipe-down cos i couldn't stop imaging the grotty hands that had touched the clothes, furniture, hats, toys etc we bought. plsu it's something to do on maternity leave lol. good luck witht he nesting! have fun!

it's very satisfying. i go and sit in the nursery in my BF chair and just wait lol. and good for you for shutting that little self-invitation down. what are people thinking?

LM - i was terribly tired to about week 16. I would sleep at least 12 hrs at night as well as sneak a nap in in the arvo if i could get away from work. I was good for about 6 weeks and then exhausted again. So from just shy of the 3rd trimester I again needed at a nap of at least 2 hrs (normally 3hrs) in the arvo or i was rubbish. The rule was 2pm, and Grub turns inot a zombie lol.

I have found i am not needing as much sleep atm but i get tired... but won't sleep. Mind you had a solid hr this arvo... get that rest when you can lady. you need it.

sonyalouse - OMG 2 years of 4 mth seperations! that's unbelievable. you are an amazing lady. I only had 8 weeks and it nearly killed me. and go with how you feel, there's been a few girls here who've had their dates mussed about. hope you are well.

had a lovely day with DH today. I forgot how much we giggle together and how much i enjoy his company. We've been pretty busy this weekend doing household cleaning/sorting stuff. Went for a very brisk walk this arvo and then had a curry for tea... i am trying all the old talles to help bubba along lol. But i think the plug has started to come away YIIPPPEEE.

anyway, dh is at work tomorrow and taking 2 days off this week. hopefully he'll be taking paternity leave before tuesday tho lol. Every please send eviction vibes to my little boy! I keep telling him "okay, we're ready now!" lol.

hi to all the lovelies here. have a wonderful week
