3 EDD's, All come and gone.

[Netix]

Thanks everyone. And, I think I also have Mum's cold which she was kind enough to bring up from Melbourne and share with our family. :/

Kelly; I wish I had someone to give me a massage! Mentally, I am there, done and ready, so I guess just a little disappointed that bubs isn't playing ball. And, I don't want to be induced, cos I don't think I'm prepared for that. And its actually never been discussed during any of this pg's appointments, so don't know if I'm even meant to call the hospital by a certain date and say, look, still haven't had the baby, its not like I had it somewhere else, when do you want me to come in? Hopefully not.

Tell your man to get busy!!! No excuses!!!!

Lol Kelly. I wouldn't need to tell him twice! Well, actually, I probably would, because he wouldn't believe it the first time! Unfortunately, its one of the furthest things I feel like doing! I do think though that I have figured out how people over eat, and eat for emotional reasons. I feel like I have nothing to do, aside from eat! And I'm waaay past nesting, so some "cleaning exercises" are also out of the question.

[BellyBelly]

You're spot on there, many people do eat out of emotional issues, anxieties, boredom! When people say, I don't understand why people let themselves get so obese, I think, I do! Its just a different option from a pile of things like alcohol, smoking etc which provides a short term relief from your feelings but long term isn't good. But thats a whole other topic

What would make you feel great then, if you don't feel like a massage? Can you book yourself in to get your nails done, manicure and or pedicure? Have some beautiful colour for the birth - and its about the same or cheaper than a massage Anything else you can think of?

[Netix]

I would love a massage, but not sure I could afford it, and wouldn't want to try a new person for such an "important" massage, if you know what I mean. And I would feel guilty getting my nails done, one of those mother guilt issues.... I could paint my fingernails myself, but can't be bothered! Then think that if I did my nails, by the time baby comes, they will be chipped and awful anyway. Full of optimism aren't I!

[BellyBelly]

I wont say how naughty I think you are!!! You'll feel better after you've done it, a little bit special Hmmm, to feel special or guilty.... know what I would rather pick

And I would feel guilty getting my nails done, one of those mother guilt issues....

Go oooooon! You deserve it! You have grown an entire little human inside you, you have nurtured and protected it for months and months, the least you can do for yourself is do something a little special to lift your spirits

[BellyBelly]

Bahahaha, good on you Lily!!! Netix, we're all gonna gang up on you I don't think you'll find any of us on BB taking your side or excuses on that one
