hi everyone i thought no-one had replied to my messgae and was really gutted! i used to get e-mals to tell me when i had a reply, must not work anymore. Needless to say you do still care! Kurtis is standing on his own now, holding onto something of course! He has been crawling for about 4...

hello ladies, i was wondering if anyone had any advice or tips to share about travelling to australia with a little one? my son is 8 months old, crawling very well and into everything! i have booked a crib/basinnette thing on the plane so that is one thign i don't have to worry about. He...

got my hopes up, :( nothing happened! but i am booked into hospital tomorrow at 4pm, very nervous! because there is no instantanious water leak or contractions starting, i'll be in hospital in scary surroundings, and on my own i think from 9pm :shock: ! i'm not sure if partners can stay after...

Due date was yesterday :( but today i have been walking lots and it seems to have brought on a few crampy type pains! baby movin a little bit, uncomfortable for me. Went for a wee, saw i had more show in pants :oops: sorry if tmi! Trying not to get too excited, fingers, legs, toes...

How disappointing for you?! :( My due date was yesterday and i am feeling huge, fed-up and figity. Tired of cleaning house and gettin pains when i walk, when i stop so do they! walked a mile or two yesterday but to no avail, have had sex, pineapple, and curry, not in that order! and he is...

what is the difference? i understand what the sweep does, and obviuosly an internal is just a general feel of the cervix, but does anyone know how different each one feels at this stage of pregnancy? i saw my doc last night and he said he'd do a sweep if he thought i was ready, but when he was...

Been to see doctor tonight and he did an internal (nasty man!). Even though i walked two miles today, had a curry and felt lots of uncomfortable tightenings and pains, my cervix wasn't ready just yet. Baby only 2/5 engaged now and i am feeling disillusioned. Thought everything was heading in...

Thanks for your replies, made me feel a whole lot more normal! I am excited, but the occasional wave of worry hits. I guess we are all on a big emotional wave, as you say from first kick to delivery, so it's only natural to worry. At the minute baby is in a controlled environment, but it will...

Just wondered how anyone else at this stage was feeling? I am very excited (first time mum), but sometimes i feel overwhelmed at the idea of this abby actually being here! Will i know what to do? Will i be a good mummy? all those things run through my mind, and i know it's to do with hormones...

the best one to use in pregnancy is Lush butterball, smells lovely and leaves skin really soft. Got cocoa butter in so gives an all over moisturiser, apparently good for stretch marks.x

If anyone is still awake the programme desperate midwives is starting at 1130pm and i think it's an amazing insight to what really goes on on the labour ward. It is on BBC three, so sorry to those who don't have sky, freeview or ntl. PL. x

My sister is doing the Gina Ford contented little baby book, i was wondering what you thought of it? she can't go anywhere to stay overnight as the baby needs a blackout blind! everything is planned around the routine, which is up at 7am, nap at 9-10.30. Nap at 12-2pm then bed at 7pm. She is...

Thanks for the reassurance, seemed ridiculous to me! will keep hold of it, so it's saved me a journey. She is doing the Gina Ford contented little baby book, i was wondering what you thought of it? she can't go anywhere to stay overnight as the baby needs a blackout blind! everything is...

Hello, I have just purchased a bumper pack for the baby by johnstons from mothercare. My sister who has a one year old told me that it was a waste of money! The pack included baby oil, shampoo, top-to-toe wash, cotton buds, baby bath, bodywash, baby soap, skin care wipes, body lotion and baby...
