    Wantbaby bump will come. and congrats on 12 weeks tomorrow. Crazy dreams are a pg thing. I have had them the entire time.

    Mitf I almost went shopping again today but didn't.l Time to say NO even to myself.

    Smithy thanks for the pep talk, I need it.

    Poppyfairy I figure it was but I love Moses basket, so cute. I'm going all sooky at the though of DH helping me bath Squeak, so nice.

    ATM: Being a sloth today, well for me anyways, just lazing around the house, working on some little projects. It's a bit warmer today so I was in a sarong only until a moment ago when I though I'd better put a skirt on under to fetch the mail.

    New neighbour has moved in I have really enjoyed having a vacant house at the back, now I can hear everything when I'm out the back. Not from inside due to double brick. She winges all the time to her parents, she's like 35! I love leaving my back door open, now I feel like there's someone right there, thank goodness for 6foot fences!

    So no labor anything as yet. DH is still convinced tomorrow. Funny man, I said no more predictions after this as it will feel like a let down.

    Still worried about the pain, but Having a little more faith in myself. DH promissed to forgive anything I say during labor, "just don't hit me" I wont.

    Just think Greenslw, if someone asked you what you are doing next weekend, the answer is probably breastfeeding!!!! How cool is that!

    I've just had an email from my Mum, she's booked her flights from London a week after my due date. I'm so pleased. Although the statement "I've forgotten what you do with tiny babies" kinda worried me*, that's what she's coming for!!!! It'll be a year since I've seen her. Can't wait!!! I'd better not be late... or very early

    *she has two grandchildren so no excuse!

    Green~ I hope your day is very soon.Lets hope hubbys prediction is correct for today. Sending labour vibes.
    londonmiss~thats great to hear that your mum will be visiting after the baby is born.Thats such a long time to not see your mum.I bet thats hard? My mum lives across the street from us and she still calls from work every day.Hubby hates it,always complaining.."she is across the road..get OFF the phone".We are very close.

    Everyone else,have a great day!

    we're the only ones propping up the telsta share price!! Ha ha no we use the internet alot and skype so it's not too bad, we speak at least twice a week and it drives my DH mad too! I shudder to think what it was like 50/100 years ago when it would have meant never seeing your family ever again - or even 30 years ago when a flight was about 2 months wages so you went back maximum every few years. They must have been so brave. Now all I need to do is organise my MIL .....

    London Miss love your comment about next week and so happy your mum is on her way. that will make your baby experince so awsome, even if she only helps you by being company that is great skype and MSN are great for overseas family, my phone bill is way less.

    Wantababy DH isn't right yet

    ATM snuck out to the shops today and OMG BH were huge I actually said a little please don't come right now. I made it home and was so tired I crawled back into bed and my phone didn't stop ringing! I keep it on cos DH worries if he can't reach me, so I only got another 20 mins or so. then DSS came home and is making a racket on his PC.

    So just a small labor ?? does it start off uncomfortable or PAINFUL? Baby has been moving all morning and I'm getting loads of tightening but not alot of pain, just niggly, I think it's BH still but not sure. Feels different that before, but not doubled over pain.

    Have a great day all

    Hi everyone. Hope you are all keeping well and those bellies are growing nice and big.

    Thought I'd pop in and send the very best of luck to all of you who are just about ready to pop.. or possibly popping as I write (Go Smithy!) Pregnancy is a wonderful journey as your little one grows and it's even more amazing once they are here.

    BDT, 35 weeks is an awesome effort with twins. My fingers are crossed you can keep your little girls in there for as long as possible. Thinking of you!

    poppyfairy yay on the three hours sleep. I can imagine that any extra sleep is a bonus.
    LondonMiss Woohoo on your mum being all booked in to join you and bub. Will be so great to have her around especially since you dont see her that often.
    Greenslw thinking of you today and sending labour vibes (in case your DH is right )

    Oh yay Smithy, So not fair I am so jealous.

    Green may labour with DS was very manageable in the beginning. I could move around, talk it didnt bother me at all. They were just regular contractions.
