Found you

Who needs ankles when you have a fabulous bump like that??! It's not as if you'd be able to see them anyway.

You look great love. How's it going?

Mervs Mum

Hey honey!! I'm ok really - I need to stop moaning. I feel fed up again tonight. I put a pair of Keith's socks on coz my feet were cold and now I have massive dents where they were.

Awww you look lovely in the dress hun!! Your hair looked fab in the "before" pics, though i swear it wasnt that long ... or is it still and you just always have it tied up?

Mervs Mum

Thanks Holly. I am a bit lazy with my hair and I do have it up an awful lot. It's probably a bit shorter than that now but not much - maybe 2 inches.

Ah, I don't think it's lazy putting it up. Mine's a freaking nightmare to get all the little bits to stay where they're meant to.

Oedema is a pain I know. I had horrid jelly feet with Charlie, everytime I stepped I could feel the top of my feet wobble. Most disconcerting.

Are you drinking plenty of water and keeping your feet up AMAP? Of course you are you're not a muppet; sorry. it's not as easy in pratice though I know.

Mervs Mum

You're right Angel - getting them put up isnt aways easy. Plus when they're up I'm in a bad position for getting her to turn from 'back to back' What to do!!! I didnt have it with Emily...but then again I was a slip of a 20 yr old then.....ahhhhh the good old days!!!

Gosh you're a HOTTIE! Before AND after!!!

My ankles are already turning into cankles, UGH, and that sock thing happens all the time too! Oh well. Sth else to mention at the doc's although I'm sure he'll just laugh at me!
Have a great day honey, and a fab weekend!
Cheers to ponytail girls! (mine is up CONSTANTLY! )

Well I've finished work!! I had a nice last day - presents, cards and flowers and more importantly we had a little lunch gathering in my room - all my work buddies brought my fav foods!!! I had a big plate of tomato, basil and mozza...mmmm....rocket and parmesan salad......crusty bread....olives.... All rounded off with THE biggest orange cake with whipped cream and melted chocolate on top!!!!!!!!!!! PIGGY!!!!

I had a little cry. It's been coming hasnt it! When I left school I went via the staffroom as we always have drinks and nibbles at the end of the first week back. I went to say a few goodbyes and Lucy May, a little girl we've raised funds for was there. Lucy May suffered oxygen starvation at birth and as a result has Athetoid Cerebral Palsy, Epilepsy, Visual Impairment and Quadriplegia. Lucy's struggle through life involves constant medical care, therapy and the support of those close to her. I just wasnt equipt for seeing her. I managed to get out before I got upset. When you already have a healthy child it makes up think 'there but for the grace of God'. Being pregnant it just made me worried for what the world has in store for Hebe. I'm sure she'll be fine but it does make you think.

We were supposed to be going out with Keith's friends who are up from London - she's a week behind me so she understood when I cried off and Keith went on his own.

Next week's gonna be weird with no work. I've got some stuff lined up. Gonna go and see one of my best mates at her new work (her big brothers company so I can go and give him some abuse) and I'm meeting my friend in Leeds for lunch and a fact finding mission in Harvey Nichols!! When I sell my wedding dress I'm going to buy a new bag....need to start deciding!!!

Awww you big piggy!! Cant believe you scoffed all that

Definatley does make you think when you see a child with disabilites, i think its noly natural to get upset isnt it. We just have to thank god that we are blessed with healthy children

Hope you have a lovely weekend twinkle and dont drool over the bags too much!! Since being preggers ive kinda fallen out of touch with whats hot and whats not lol. The last one i got treated to (and a v special treat at that) was a LV Mirroir speedy in silver ... so dont think im going to get another one for a while until thats paid off
