kimbe - Congratultions!! Looking forward to hearing the details

Lenny - Yeah, got my preggie AV! I like it now, looked quite funny at first LOL!

Lis- I think Tracey is right about baby car seats not being allowed on the front seat. Hope you can sort out something with it. We are going to have a similiar problem with space. DH and I are going to see if we can fit the seat in the middle of the car until he goes back to work and I'm driving around and not sitting in the passenger seat with it all crunched up.

I have been scrubbing the walls, ever so slowly mind you, in the spare room for DH to do a built in cupboard and painting, for DD to move into. It was my room as a teenager, so has stacks of sticky tape from hanging up posters and glow in the dark stickers all over the roof and walls. It is taking me forever to do as the glue remover makes me feel just yuck if I spend too long in there. I try to do a section at a time, so only have 2 and a half wallls to go. Trying to get it done before DH finishes work on Thursday morning, so he can prime it with some paint this weekend. Things going pretty good otherwise.

Congratulations Kimbe and welcome baby Jenna, glad to hear you are so in love with her....I cant wait.

ooooohh its getting so close for everyone, it must be a race now between Marcellus and Lenny.

Lenny - cot is the dirty word in our house, if dh doesnt take me to a decent shopping centre in the next month im just going to get one of the tetra snuggle beds for the poor little mite.

nic - good luck with the walls and yes no baby seat in the front as we have an airbag, dh had a look at it yesterday and said he would sort it!!! So i am stepping away from the car seat, just hope he doesnt leave it till we go to hospital!!

My teaching course has just started again, got one module to do before the birth, god help me with preggie brain, it has just taken me 3 days to remember where I had put my glasses.....work has been very interesting as a result!!!!

2.5 weeks till easter and 8.5 weeks till maternity leave not that im counting

Lis, we had a tetra snuggle bed with DD. DH knew someone who was getting rid of theirs, so picked it up for us, I had no idea what they were at the time. It was fantastic, DD was a summer baby, so we usually just laid her on it with a singlet on. When we moved her from bassinette to cot, we put the snuggle bed in the cot for a few days until she became familiar with her new surroundings. Was helpful when we went to my parents as well, just threw it on the floor or in her portacot. I got rid of it, but it is on DH's "Must buy" list! Gosh, my DH sounds like he is addicted to babyshopping... Hope your DH gets the seat sorted out for you.

Hi Girls,

Kimbe - BIG CONGRATS KIMBE ON PRECIOUS JENNA MICHELLE!!!! Hope you all are feeling okay and everyone is healthy. Rest up and enjoy every minute.

Lismith & Nic - best friend had a tetra snuggle bed for her 3 bubs and wouldnt be without one.

Me - feeling better this week though bub wasnt moving and so I went to the hospital on Tuesday morning to get monitored for movement and heartbeat for half an hour. A bit scary being in a delivery suite at 25.5 weeks. All is fine and Bub is very active. My placenta is still anterior (right at the front) and because of his position I couldnt feel him for a few days. They taught me to lay on my side, have something really cold like ice to chew or a really cold drink, get in a dark room, concentrate and relax but dont sleep. Bub should start moving within an hour. He has been moving since and he is fine. Thank goodness.

Have a great day girls, the weather is beautiful in all states today!

Tracey
