Hi,

Trishy - I don't think I will do classes this time either (doubt I could find the time if I wanted to). Your nursery prep is at about the same stage as mine. Can't really do much until it's painted, otherwise you just have to move it all again. I'd rather wash things after the paint job too. How are you feeling this week?

Does anyone know any good books to prepare for birth / labour and all that. Or maybe it's best to just not think about it at all. What do you guys reckon?

Aimee - I think the housewife compulsory uniform is a dressing gown, isn't it? The first things on my list of stuff to buy to get ready for baby are dressing gown, PJs and trackies. Essentials. I guess I should write nappies on there too at some point. Haven't found any maternity jumpers, but have been wearing long woollen cardie type things and just bought a big hoodie that was a size too big. My belly still isn't that big so stuff still seems to fit.

Possums - I'm so happy that your scan showed everything was still going well. Good to hear he's head down already - I think it's comfier that way too (except for the odd foot in your rib).

Grub - any movement yet? Have you started all the old wives tale remedies for getting bub out yet? Are you doing anything to get your, um, bajingo ready for the grand opening? Anyway, back to the lounge girl and take it nice and easy

AFM - I think it;s a bit of a common theme in here. Feeling a very very strong urge to nest and get things ready, but can't get stuck into it yet. DH is going to paint the room first so I'm waaaaiiitttiiinnngggg for that to happen. Think I want to buy a bassinet too so bub can sleep near me for a few weeks. Any ideas on where to get a cheapie? Babies are noisy and our house is tiny so he/she will be in their own room before long anyway.

Anyway - I rambled enough last time, take care xo
