alicecooper - whoa! lol how does DH feel about your 'promotion'?
sue_88 - your preparedness makes me feel ill. *laughs* I guess I should really focus on getting things ready for the baby instead of developing a bento box/lunch obsession for my 3 year old who just started preschool Monday. I was out trawling the stores for a new lunch box, silicone baking cups, containers etc.
I've still got our boots free bag too. Comes in oddly handy!
I never did find a great nursing bra in the UK... M&S had really unsupportive ones
but then I didn't check Mothercare. I think Bravissmo might be a good choice though.
Alice - yeah, my boobs got bigger during pregnancy but it was nothing compared to when my milk came in. I mostly just wore sports bras though.
Libbysmum - heh, we were the opposite! We were told that she was going to be close to 10lbs and was only 8lbs so was totally swamped in her going home outfit... I'm going to bring more of a range of sizes this time!
Pink - I thought I was getting pre-eclampsia last week, I know how worrying that can be! *hugs* hope your next appointment goes better!
Miss Fox - they brought you lasinoh? Awesome! In the UK they did bring me some but it was a one use tiny sachet and I was like... 'what is this?' didn't really use it. Eventually I learned what a godsend it actually is and was miffed that I'd gotten such a pea sized amount because it wasn't a good introduction.
Sue - my husband is Scottish and still says nappy instead of diaper. It only gets confusing when we start talking about naptime etc. To me the definition of nappy is - disgusting. So it's a bit funny.
AFM: Had my 36 week appointment this morning. Had to have an internal because they were doing the Strep B swab test so they checked dilation etc as well. No dilation but 50% effaced. Actually had to get the doc to define effaced for me because it was never discussed in the uk.
Thankfully when I talked to the doc last time he told me that I didn't have to have an internal exam every week if I wasn't interested. Just to mention it to the nurse before they move me to the exam room. I'm not fussed about what's going on down there - I'm sure I'll feel it when it starts and the less people down there the better!
Does anyone remember me mentioning how our new sofa broke two days after we got it? Well the longer we have it the more we hate it in general so the good news is that the technician came out yesterday afternoon and customer service has agreed for us to return the sofa for a complete refund!! There was a lot of talk about a 15% restocking fee earlier so we were thrilled with the full refund. Time to go sofa shopping again. ugh and there goes all the feeling in 2 of my fingers on the right hand... that's my cue to stop typing.
He has been ahead since 16 weeks, all of a sudden he is now spot on, which is 3/4 weeks behind what he was last time 
my maternal Grandmother 
maybe I need to look into that a little more as I have definitely put off ever asking my MW about it. Does the area feel any different to normal? Because mine feels physically the same as normal.
