| So clearly, I am still up the duff as I'm able to write this blogpost. One more full day to go and after that I have reached my due date. So much for popping early....unless I pop tomorrow, there are an awful lot of people who shouldn't be dashing to take up jobs as Mystic Meg...

I'd bitch about having broken sleep but it seems stupid considering that I'm likely to have broken sleep for the next few years... Clearly I'm practicing for when the bambino arrives, whereas the boyf can't seem to get enough sleep and is sleeping for England. He's normally the |

Am I the only person to ever have a baby shower where her mother decided to combine it with having a hot first date?!

I don't claim to be the most religious person on earth but I'm not naive enough to not recognise that a bit of positivity and prayer certainly isn't the worst thing that could happen at this particular point in my life.

I...er..haven't left yet..." "Tell him why!" called out the boyf. "I'm in a bit of pain...It's taking me longer to leave the house..." I said wincing. |
