Think I am going to join your club Nici!! Am sooooooo tired - didn't even equate that with lo getting bigger this week doh... truly I thought I'd lost all my brain last time, but it appears eveything is disappearing this time!! I will be a plank by the time she is born
Inset day was lovely
Got lots of work done after my target setting this mornin... and we got a buffet at lunchtime - bonus!! I'm not usually a bath kinda gal but I think it's calling me tonight! Hope you all get a good chance for a rest over the weekend... only 10 weeks for me to go eeekkkk!! xxx26/9/08 19:24
I am so so so tired I can hardly keep my eyes open as I type this. Think I am gonna go in bath and lie down for the rest of the night.

My bump seems to be aching loads on either side so I think I am going through a growth spurt too. Everybody in work thinks I have gone bigger over this week. Have I come out in sympathy with you Sal?
I am so jealous you had INSET today Katie - I so wish I did? We have two extra ones in November, but typical it is when I have finished. Ah well.
So glad it is pay day for me today - there is a NEXT 2 day sale I think tomorrow and Saturday, so I think I will go and look for some stuff tomorrow morning for bubs and Liam. Oh and shoes for me.
Might catch you later - if not will speak to you all tomorrow. Hope you are all feeling well.

I am tired again - I wonder if my iron levels are low or my thyroxine needs adjusting. Will see when the results of my bloods come back I guess.
DH's mum n partner just rang from Cyprus they were due to fly home tonight but they have both been admitted to hospital with virus thing and are really dehydrated. Poor things.

Yup - got the loola in the end, although now you've got me wondering which version I have lol!! Just looking forward to making it all
xxx24/9/08 20:52
No Kez didn't get back to the thread so will keep bumping it up over next few days to see if we catch her. Hope she is alright.
Katie, I have to stop myself crossing my legs - it gives me funny achey legs that feel really strange.
I didn't watch that childbirth thing, forgot all about it - my friend in work said about it being in CoCH but totally slipped my mind. She had her 20 week scan yesterday and all is well. She got loads of piccies for free coz there was a student there.
Just been to check my mum is ok (Dad away on hol today for a week & carers in for certain times during the day). Good job they only live a mile away.
OOOHH Sal I really liked that Cossatto pram you have and I really ummm'ed n' rrr'ed over which one to get. I think Katie got the same as me in the end - did ya honey?
Well off for a bath now
Catch you tom

Sorry Katie you just pipped me! Teachers, we are control freaks at heart!! I don't like the idea of my classes without me either but I guess i'm in denial at the mo!! Enjoy your last kid day lv Sal xx24/9/08 19:18
Hello ladies, I too didn't get the best night's sleep but due to OH sniffling & being unsettled all night poor thing has it worse than I did
I had a panic in school today when my projector said it was overheating! My room gets so hot by the end of the day & with 33 kids in it things got a bit much! Even with the windows & doors open & the fan on it was sweltering! I couldn't cope without my interactive whiteboard, hope it recovers!! Nici, hope you are feeling better soon & that you get a good nights sleep tonight. My pram is the Cosatto Mobi (that they have now changed to Budi!) in Ember. Got the travel system with car seat & can't wait to use it
xxXXxx Maria, glad you are feeling better, keep up the internet shopping & let us know if you spot any bargains as we will all have to be prepared early this year lol! I am hoping to finish work on 16th Dec (due 17th Dec!) but will see how it goes. I can always be a good case study for the childbirth group if it all goes pop in school lol!!! xxXXxx Katie, hope you are doing well sweetie & that your 4 day kid week is nearly over (lucky you!). Nici, did Kez respond to your thread? Take care ladies lv Sal xxxxxxxxxx24/9/08 19:15
Coo you lot have been busy bees!!
Have right hip ache today - probably from sitting on the sofa with my legs under my bum last night... I forget that makes it worse when it feels ok ... if you see what I mean!! Ooooh Nici I can't believe you've opened it lol - min'es all boxed in the spare room still, along with all the other baby stuff!! Just the cot to arrive!! I am trying not to do too much work Sal, I find it quite hard if I'm honest! I don't like the thought of them all planning things without me lol
I'll be back at the start of April... I take after my dad too much I think!! Glad your foot is feeling better Maria
I am now sitting facing forward with my feet on the pouffe rather than wonky like last night - am hopingthat will improve things for tomorrow! Still, Friday is an inset day so not too bad!! I seem to have turned into exclamation mark girl tonight - sorry!! My dd is breech at the moment too Nici - must be these awkward girls lol - think they still have quite a few weeks to turn round though don't they? Anyway - take care girlies... getting exciting now isn't it?! xxxx24/9/08 18:52
Hi ladies. God I am so tired today. Suffered really bad with my back in the night last night. Thought I was gonna have to wake James to hoist me out to go to the toilet. Wore my support belt today in work - so it has eased a little. Can't wait to have a nice soak in the bath after.
Sal, I suffer with an underactive thyroid so my body doesn't produce enough of the hormone thyroxine. I have to take tablets every day to compensate. Have suffered with it for 16 years now (14 when I found out). Have to have regular check ups and blood tests to check my levels. They didn't seem too bothered when I was having Liam, but this time they are keeping an eye on me.
Glad your foot is better Maria - resting up has done you the world of good.
What pram did you go for Sal? I bet you are itching to get it out of the attic.
Anyway, will catch up with you all later.

hi ladies, I'm glad your all feeling much better. Don't wear yourself out at work katie, how long till u finish? 33 days doesn't sound too bad nici, and what about u sal. how long left at work? are u all going back to work? Hope all your blood tests come back ok nici, i'm desperate to get my pram back out of the loft, i cried the day we put it up there. Glad your check up was ok too sal. At my last check up baby was head down, already in the right position it'll be a miracle if its still like that cos i'm sure he/she's doing somersalts some days. My foot is much better after resting it all day monday. Still stiff and some swelling but the pain is much easier. hope you've all had a good day. bye for now. x

I am so jealous, my pram is all boxed in my mum & dad's loft & won't get to play with it till bubs is here
Enjoy it chick
What is with your thyroid Nici? Is it too slow/too fast? Hope all is okay xx Did you see the sex ed programme on c4 tonight? They were at COCH so I had to tune in to nosey around where I will be having my baby soon yikes!23/9/08 21:22
YIPPEEEEEEE!!!!

Pram is just so ace - I love it, I love it, I love it!!!!!
So glad I went for Oxygen Black - shopping basket above folding cross bar (2008 model) which is what I wanted and the black looks so good with my So Pearly Grey carrycot.
YEAH YEAH YEAH.

Sorry couldn't contain myself.

Evening ladies. Glad you are feeling better Sal, sometimes a good lie down and a decent sleep does the trick.
My 28wk app went well today - had to have 4 pots of blood taken (repeat of my thyroid one as well as the others). Go next at 34 wk, then consultant about thyroid at 36 weeks (apparantly I already had consultant appointment booked but had never received the app - typical NHS). Bubs is breech still but not a prob at this point she said. Glad your app went well too Sal.
Try not to do too much in work Katie - let them do it when you are away. I just can't wait to finish this time. 33 working days left for me -Yippeeeee!!! I really can't seem to tolerate the kids very well at the mo, my hormones are obviously playing havoc with my patience.
DH is home - Yeah (I missed him more this time for some reason).
Oh and my pram has arrived so very very very excited. Want DH to get it out of box (you know just to check it is all there - ha ha). Hope he isn't too exhausted.

Hope your legs are better now Maria and you have managed to rest up since sunday.
WHERE ARE YOU KEZ?? (Think I might start a thread calling for her).
Catch up with you later.

Hello ladies. I am feeling much better today thank you. Back at work & had my 28wk appointment & bloods too. All fine n dandy! Hope your appointment went well Nici & glad that Liam is back to full health. Maria, you are mad shopping all day on your feet with arthritus & being pg lol! Get on the internet & shop that way, much easier!! Katie, Ellie & your OH sound like my OH who is rarely ill & says my immune system is weak!! But even he has come down with this one tee hee! It is hard to let go in teaching, especially when you have to go back to the fallout but try & take it easy chick. lv Sal xxxxxxxx





















Morning ladies - hope you are all well.
My back was in agony last night so was awake a lot -AGAIN. It seems to be down my left leg and left side of back. Then when I try and turn over (which is now a mammoth task in itself) I feel like I am pulling my groin muscles. What joys!
Hope you enjoyed your bath Katie - glad your INSET went well. It's nice to have a bit of time to get on top of things. I just seem to be chasing my tail all the time. I am renowned for my organisational skills in work and getting things done straight away BUT because I can't do my displays or hang things up (which I love doing) I have to rely on other people which is starting to frustrate me. ARGH! Not much longer - 30 work days left (7 weeks til I finish).
Popped down to the NEXT sale - not an awful lot there, but did manage to get a gorgeous girly outfit (jeans that will roll up, long sleeved white top with some detail on it and a little hooded jacket with a rabbit on it & buttons - so cute for £9), jeans & fleece jacket for Liam, shirts for James and full price shoes for me. Had some success.
Well best get on with the jobs.
Catch you all later.
