god i know what that feels like having mega heartburn, ive been having it morning noon and night since about 10wks!!! i think i should have shares in gaviscon with the amount that i buy lol!! ive got 10wks to go but it still feels like a lifetime but im sure it will go really quickly. im almost prepared anyway. all ive gotta do is pack my hospital bag. have you got any top tips on what to pack, i havent got a clue. ill end up packing everything but the kitchen sink i expect lol!. take it easy xx

Hi ya
my name is Vicky i live in Plymouth, i moved back to Plymouth 6 weeks ago after living moving to Reading 3 yrs ago cos of my fiances job- its so good to be back. Im due to give birth on sunday and cannot wait. Ive been trying to take walks on Plymouth Hoe but since baby has moved further down into pelvis my back is killing me. There is another girl who has just had her baby called kim who lives in Plymouth but she hasnt been on for a while probably got her hands full with her new baby boy. Vicky xxx

Hi hun i have not even packed my hospital bag yet and i only have 4 weeks might be because im having a home birth so i dont see the point really lol but i still have to do one just incase i go into early labour ir have to go into hospital for some reason why in labour or after the birth.
try not to worry about what to pack in your bag as long as you have got all the maen things you should be ok.
ie:
clothes for baby when born
clothes for you dueing and after labour
breast pads
san towels (some hospital provided them)
next time u go to see your midwife just ask about nappies and wipes ect
and clothes for you and baby to come home in
thats all i took when i had my first and second and was ok. its just like packing a holiday bacg but you need to pack a few things for baby to lol if you know what i mean anyways take care all xxxx

Hi Laura, sorry to hear your off sick, i went on mat leave at 33 weeks cos we were moving back form Reading and im so bored but only have 2 days left to go till baby hopefully arrives. Twin girls- you'll have your hands full but how exciting! How are you finding being pregnant?x
Hi Ella, were having a boy and think weve decided on the name Joshua. We always wanted to find out- im terrible, im the type of person who wants to open xmas presents before xmas day so there was no way i could wait 9 months! In my hosp bag ive got 2 towels, 2 night dresses, slippers, dressing gown, wash bag, maternity pads, breast pads and underwear. In baby's bag ive got a blanket, 2 vests, 2 all-in-ones, a hat and 3 nappies. Its difficult cos you dont know how long you'll be in for!x
Hi Sammy, i was thinking i would quite like a home birth but were staying in rented accomadation untill our place has finished being decorated etc so was paranoid about it all getting a bit messy! Let me know how it goes x

hi kim, yeah ive got pretty much everything now i think. all ive gotta do is paint the babys room which im doing in a few weeks cos my chap is doing a training course in holland for 4 days and im gonna miss him like mad so i thought that would take my mind off things. its weird i feel like its not long til i hav the baby but its ages yet really but im sure the time will fly by!!!
i hoping not to go back to work after the baby is born, depends on money and stuff!! so we'll ah to wait and see.
hope everthing else is ok with u love ella x
