Um yes I am well over being pregnant. I told my MW today it is coming out this month and she laughed at me.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

My mw came for a regular visit today and I said "I'd be glad to go into labour right now, wanna go up to the hospital?" lol And it turns out she had nothing else on today either!

oh man, still didn't pack hospital bag today, but managed to buy the bits for it I didn't have. I so need my hair cut and coloured, might book that in tomorrow. Need to get some books and some summer nighties or something, as I am not a nightclothes wearer. I have done some baking, and am currently washing the bassinette cover, as when I put it up before, I didn't think it looked clean enough. I just had a shandy, and am fighting the urge to have another, so beer is top of my hospital list...
Nikki, if you are reading this, i will text you, and you can come on here and post, ok? I cannot count on rod to do that!

You could always just not change (for nights) at the hospital... I packed nightwear when I went in with Hannah but because I ended up with a c/s and could hardly walk by myself I just didn't bother with them!

LOL Annie it's been getting heaps hotter at nights here too... but still cold when I go to bed. And I don't like being found that way by the kids in the morning
I've had little contractions from 6pm to 11pm ish... was too tired so decided to just go to bed and see what happens. Everything has settled right down but I'm thinking once I properly get up today (at the moment I'm just filling in time cause I feel yuck and I can't sleep) that things will probably get going... here's hoping! I'm quite excited about seeing my little Baby

Teresa, i'm jealous i've have enough of the little period of time when i'm having contractions and then they go away. I'm over being pregnant in a big way and DH is over me being pergnant as wel. He told me he would rather put up with the baby crying for a feed than me trying to move in the bed at night. I'm thinking a big walk is on the plans for me this afternoon and everyday until this thing gets out of me. Hopefully in the next few weeks.

Heya Becks, I started today with a decent walk (my third one this week ) but sadly everything died down and hasn't picked up again since before breakfast . It was a long night with light contractions, nausea, stuffy nose, coughing, sore back (from the weight when I lie on my side).... <sigh> anyways should be happening this week, it just feels so long!
