    Oh for the love of god.... baby is still not here!! I had a bath as suggested and pains didn't go... so figured they weren't braxton hicks they felt much too strong... they were 7 mins apart so went to bed to relax, by 4am they were 5 mins apart and fairly intense right round into my back where i had most of my labour pains on my first... so up i get and decided i'll have a cup of tea and then get himself up.. they feckin stopped at half 4...:eek::eek::mad::mad: not a bloody dickie bird since... i just sat down and cried... i'm so fed up i really thought this was it. i swear i'm getting first slap when it does finally come out... my head is wrecked with all in my mam's house texting me to find out what i have!!a nervous breakdown is what!! ah well roll on thursday:( i wonder how long it would stay put if they didn't start me?? :D

    on the upside(if there is one) we got the call from the solicitor to say we're signing contracts today at 3 so yay something is going right!! that was only 4 weeks late:D

    Very different this time around, much bigger, more tired (but that's cos I'm running around after a one year old!!), more emotional for some weird reason!!

    How about you? At least you left a bit of a gap between your two!

    I really couldn't do it adrienne. Aidan takes up all day everyday. Between Addison and the new one arriving soon, I really have nothing but respect for you!

    I dunno! I can't wait! Addison is amusing herself for most of the day these days anyway exploring everything. The only time she looks for attention is for food or if she's tired! She moseys around the sitting room in the morning and it's hilarious watching her doing some of the stuff she does.

    How is Aidan these days? Getting big and bold I bet!!

    I agree....pregnancy is hard enough! I don't know how you can be pregnant and run after a tiny person!

    He is absolute trouble, climbing onto everything and crawling for hours on end. He wants nothing but attention all day every day, hence why I couldn't even think of another one yet!

    Yeah, Addison was like that at 10 months too. Constant attention. It changes so much, they get so much more independent soon. I bet he's a cutie though lol!

    He has a chest infection and ear infection at the moment, so not doing great but when I wake in the morning and see him standing in his cot looking at me with his huge smile, my heart melts!

    He was eating chocolate rice cakes and destroyed the place the other day, when I asked him "what did you do?" this is what was facing me!

    Oh my God! He's gorgeous!! Addison is only starting to cop that she can stand in her cot now lol, I think her grobag was constricting her a bit but not anymore! I thank God that she's not sick that often.

    Here's the cheeky wagon...

    Aidan didn't even practise in front of us. I put him into his cot in his grobag one night after a few minutes he started screaming so I bolted into the room to see what was wrong, there he was grobag and all standing up, I called his dad and since then trying to get him not to do it is the trick!:rolleyes:

    I was packing a suitcase for to go to Cork for 2 days, Aidan made it clear he was coming too! (although I had told him already he was coming)

    Haha! She started pulling herself up around the furniture in the sitting room. She is now trying to scale the stairs. She nearly vaulted over the cot in her nan's on new years eve (but thats cos it hasn't been lowered yet), thank god I was in the room with her at the time, that and it's pushed up against the bed so it would have been a safe landing for her anyway.

    Haha, he's a baby who knows what he wants!!

    Yes Aidan was in his nan's over xmas and started to climb the stairs with precision and speed. The child is watching way too many Bond movies!!!!!!!

    Yes, he is 80cm tall now! He is going to be way taller than his mammy! I am only 5 foot 3.

    Did you say you know your baby's gender Adrienne.

    Hacked how are you hanging in there?

    Sure, I would never take what they say seriously, there was a Polish woman in the bed next to me in the Rotunda, told she was having a boy, bought all blue and had a girl! That would drive most women mad (not me I am a major fan of blue)

    I have to stop coming onto this thread, I am getting all maternal again! Good thing Aidan's father is gone! He'd die if I got pregnant again!:):):)
