Wow what busy weekend chatters you all are!!

Lenny, love that you have finally ventured out shopping, it is just so much fun buying and then washing and folding...i still go into the nursery and move all the little clothes around into differing draws, folding and re-folding them, just picking which little outfit for bubs to wear home from the hospital is frustrating me, though in a good way. I just can't make up my mind.

Sazz, i think you're right about the back pain, though I can't imagine what 18E's must be like! It probably is all the extra weight on the front pulling me out of alignment, though when my MIL suggested the same thing i went into denial mode, when you say it though it's all good and makes sense...hmmm that's probably not a good sign for the MIL relationship at the moment huh. Will definately keep DH on the pump for massages. He is being completely wonderful, the pain's actually caused me to become teary twice now - once in the bath and the other on the couch and both times he's dropped to his knees and asked what he can do to make it ok, he's just beautiful, i am really blessed.

Nic glad to hear you're DH is trying to improve things a little for you - eggs benedict and the dishes is a definate brownie point getter! Does this mean you guys are talking now??

The grobag thing is new to me. (I know, note to self, do more reading about useful things for baby!)
My sister bought me a sleeping bag type thing that the baby is completely enclosed in and it just zips up the front, is that kinda what it is? I thought it was a cute idea and just washed it and put it with all the other wraps and things, i'm so hopeless sometimes i swear!. Might ask her about it when she next visits.

Missy how are you travelling chicken?? Any improve? If not, i hope it kicks in soon, i'm pretty sure there's a hormone boost in the 2nd trimester which might help.

Mako - love Sage's poo idea, anything to divert attention away from his gg's health and to bring a smile to her face hey! So glad Felix does the same thing Monnie. We don't have any gg's locally, but MIL is in early 70's and as she's already pointed out to me her 'grandchildren are her life!' she just doesn't stop talking about the 2 littlies she's already got, i have to hear their every waking moment from a sneeze to a smile. GGRRRHHHH hope she doesn't torture others with stories of our bubba's every waking moment, but i can see where she's kinda coming from too (when i'm in a good mood that is).

Went on a delivery suite tour today, it was pretty uneventful as we did it when we were only 10weeks (yes, slightly ambitious back then!) and nothing's changed, but I am now certain i know where to come for labour and have a good understanding about the initial process of being assigned a labour room...after that, who knows but just being there and listening today brought tears to my eyes with a mixture of excitment and nerves.

Anyway, hope you all have had a lovely weekend with family, friends or just hanging out on your own!
