I think you might have put me down as the 13th by mistake :winkwink: It's ok though, it's baby brain :haha:

I'm good thanks - have been feeling quite impatient for the past few weeks so the nursery is almost finished - painted yellow with white furniture and lots of bright, non gender specific fabrics.
Have still got lots to buy, so am really enjoying taking our time and choosing bits and pieces for little one.

How about you? How was the Anti-D? I have mine booked for 28 weeks too.
 
Hi I'm due new years day with our third a little boy called aiden. This pregnancy has been going really smoothly with exception of awful heartburn. Got a prescription for it today so hopefully it works.
We fly out on holiday next week I'm so excited I can't wait really need some r and r after a dose of flu last week swiftly followed by severe bronchitis and sinusitis.
 
Hi ladies, can I join pretty pls?

Am due 7th Jan with my 2nd and I'm team :pink:

Thecatsmother - Updated hun x

Redrose - Hi hun! Thats so cute of your daughter :cloud9: I have just started chrimbo shopping I want most of it done before I start maternity leave then I can spend some time wrapping. Im very excited about this chrimbo... I could have a baby here!!! We all could!

Mel - :hi: Ive added you on! Welcome!

Jim_bear - :hi: Its funny sometimes I think its ages away but then other times its like OMG not long at all. Its when I think of silly little things like.... only 2 pay months left until maternity leave or something daft like that. We havent bought any of the big things yet as we're still waiting to move into our new house... which hopefully should be end of this month beginning of Novemver. We're going to Kiddicare on Saturday next week to hopefully place an order for a pram. Just hope we can find something we like that hasnt got a 3 month waiting list :haha: We have got a cot but need to buy a new mattress. Other than that we've got clothes, some bits and pieces for my hospital bag that we've just added to our grocery shop iygwim... Ooooh some cloth nappies! How about you?

Trissy - Hi :hi: Ive added you on too!

When is everyone finishing work for maternity leave? My last day is 4th December but Im starting to doubt myself a little bit as to whether Im leaving it a bit late? Equally I dont want to go too early and end up going NUTS! :haha:

I won't go on maternity leave until I am going into labor. lol Sadly we only get 6 weeks (8 weeks with c-section) for maternity leave here.
 
Mrs Mel - :dohh: Sorry hun will change it now! Anti D was fine a bit stingy, had it in my bum :haha: So glam! Have you got some nursery pics for us? I'd love to see what you have done.

mommymakayla - I dont think I have had any branston pickles yet... how would I know what they are?? Or would I just know?

Rockelle - :hi: Nice to see you hun!! Will pop you on the front page due date buddy! Where are you off too? Im so jealous. Hope youre over all the nasties now xxx

Lucky Star - :hi: I'll pop you on the front too! Welcome!

Ready4babe - OMG... We are so lucky over here with our maternity leave x
 
evening ladies.. I've just come from my first breastfeeding session with other mums to be.. Even though I breastfed my DD, it was so long ago and I gave up after about 3 weeks. Things are so different now and I think I already have the confidence to feed for more than 3 weeks.. There is do much more support available now through local groups and feeding specialists, I'm actually quite excited to try again.

I also learned more about the importance of skin to skin contact, not just with mum but with dad an siblings (who are old enough) too.

have any of you ladies been to any classes yet? I'm interested to know what other classes are out there

Getting more and more excited to meet LO now :)
 
Mrs A - oooh sounds really interesting... was it a free session or NCT or something. Ive got my hospital visit 1st December and then BF session 12th December.
 
Thanks for adding me in Samba!:)

I'm Smita from Sydney, Australia. I only go on Mat leave from the 15th of Dec (at around 37 weeks). Lol, I must be crazy! Definitely looking to time away from work:)

As far as prams go, we're mostly going to get a Silvercross surf! OH loves it and I quite fancy it too, It's cheaper than the Icandy, stokke and some of the other prettier ones;p
 
Lil Duckie - Gosh you are working until late. How long can you guys have off over there?
The silver cross looks lovely! xxx

Hope everyone is well..... 39 get up's left for work! :haha: I am ready for maternity leave already!

it was run by the local NHS trust at the hospital that Im booked in at.. Only downside was it was 3 hours long, the seats were uncomfortable (imagine 30 pregnant women fidgeting!) and there were no refreshments.. But we can't have everything can we?

check before your BF session about refreshments etc :thumbup:
 
Mrs A - Thanks for the tip! Was it very hands on (so to speak)? :haha:
 
Here's a little about me :) I'm 27 and my partner is 42. We have been together for nearly 5 years now and super duper happy together :D In April we started trying and I fell pregnant straight away! :D

I have also been very lucky in my pregnancy with minimal morning sickness and have just generally been feeling great! We can't wait for our little girl to arrive in January.

Our only slightly unusual situation is that we live apart due to his children from his previous marriage visiting and he looks after his mum. However, it works fine for us!
 
Tinkalink - Will you be moving together once baby is here?

Claireleelou - :hi: and welcome! Will pop you on the front page xx Which team are you on?
 
Nice to have such a big bunch of ladies all due around the same time :)

Just counted and I have 46 more days left at work! It's not too bad at the moment, but I can imagine towards the end it will get quite hard being so big and trying to work each day!

How's everyone feeling about the big day? Have you thought of birth plans yet? I have my NHS course in a few weeks, apparently we'll go through the different options for birth plans, which will be interesting.

Ooh, in the bum? Is that where they give it? Or do you have a choice?

I'll have to take some pics - while it's looking all neat and tidy :)
