Firstly - apologies Lira - I did mean to congratulate you on the new addition. What did you call him?

Thanks for the replies girls...

I went out shopping straight after I posted. I bought some cot manchester and newborn clothes in (insert four lettered name of a colour in here) (yes, I realise both pink and blue have four letters... ) for this little baby. I've not bought it a single thing till today! I know... horrible Mummy. Made me feel so much better though. Amazing what a bit of retail therapy will do.

I got a call from a Diabetes Counsellor whilst I was out. She was lovely and was able to squeeze me in for an appointment tomorrow. So, all my questions will be answered then. There's about four or five girls in my belly buddies who have GD now, so they've been great with support and advice. I've been told to expect the Ob's to try and take over with everything, including the birth, so I'm going to try and keep control as much as I can.

I was able to feel no: 2's foot yesterday. He/she was sticking it straight out of my belly, so I grabbed it and received a hard kick for my troubles. I remember playing the same game with Caeleb. Must be getting squashy in there as I can feel elbows, knees and heels most of the time now, especially at night time when I'm trying to sleep. Still no stretch marks either!!! YAY!!!

Okay, I've got to go start cleaning my house. I've got my MIL coming over to look after Caeleb while I'm at my appointment tomorrow. For some strange reason, she never calls before coming over and every time she comes over, my house looks like a tip. Yet, when it's immaculate, no-one ever comes over... is it just me, or does this happen to everyone?
