Thankfully I started yesterday! I have to admit, I really felt a mix of relief and sadness though. We weren't trying at all but I have to admit it wouldn't have been the worst time in the world for a baby. Thanks for your support!

Good luck with the TTC Amanda, keep us updated on here :0)

Had my first anti natal class last night, was good and everyone seems very friendly, it's nice to meet and talk to people in the same position as you. I'm due first eek! Althought that doesn't mean much, I could still end up being last I guess - who knows!

Its getting exciting now!! not long for you at all x:)

Remember to keep a postive attitude when littlun arrives xx i didnt with my first and it made it harder. I stayed positive with Erica anf it was much easier to handle!!

Do you mean for the labour or after baby arrives? I'm completely freaking out about the labour now and convincing myself it's going to be the most awful thing ever. I think it's just fear of the unknown and being such a control freak. Also worried all the time that all will be ok with the baby.

Weirdly though I'm not focussing on 'will I be sick' and it's more the pain aspect and how on earth does it come out of there!!

Ive been through it TWICE and i still dont know how the hell it actually fits out of there!!
Its not a pain like a normal pain... but i cant describe it.
Positive attitude once baby arrives.. scream and sware all you like in labour lol!!
Those broken nights and trying to get baby into a routine is very hard and takes some staminer but if you introduce a routine as soon as possible they will start to sleep longer and longer.
My rountine is... bath at 6, bottle at 7 and bed... erica now goes to sleep 8-4, bottle and back down until 8... she is 14 weeks.
I started that at 3 weeks old and each night she slept that little bit longer... even with colic.
Also.. make sure you do sleep when baby does.... after all housework doesnt really matter xxxx

xxx my words of wisdom... everyone will be offering them !! lol!
