Jamie, thankfully I bought my house 3 years ago, and it was a total dump inside - as the previous owner had it for nearly 40 years and done nothing in the last 5-10 as she was getting old.
It meant I could rewire, re plumb, plaster and decorate however I wanted, and we got the house at a steal! As my family are all in the building trade I did a lot myself, including the rewire and got all friends and family in to help (including wiring my wires to the new consumer of)
The electrician told me to do them on separate circuits, how glad am I that I followed his advice?? Gave him a call earlier and he's coming out next week to fix when he's back from work. I tried to do it myself, but I just can't stretch enough to get to it, and I don't want to risk it! I did have a nice soak in the bath earlier by candlelight!
Harley, that is very brave! I'm thinking of working up until 36 weeks, then ill have a week of leave then start my mat leave. I am off over Christmas thou!
my mums booked the week off when I'm 38 weeks off herself so she can help me out before the birth making sure everything's ready! As for how many hours ill work when I go back, it depends really. My hubby has got a job in Leeds which we accepted before we found out I was pregnant. He's a teacher and the jobs market in Liverpool and srrounding area is awful at the moment, so kinda forced to take it. Hopefully it's not for long though - although he's facing a mad drive when I do go in labour and at weekends (hell be staying up there mon to fri)
Ill take a photo of bump tomorrow when I have light and try and work out how to post it - how do you do that?
Susie, how many days are you working now? Do you struggle with the two?
Hope everyone has a lovely weekend, wish me luck in my dark house, plus hubby invited friends over so could end up rather interesting! Gem x x x
I think I was unusual tho as most first babies are late I think. 
but should it of burnt through like that?
