Great to hear everything is going well Mimi :)
I'm definitely on your side of the continuum with knowing and being prepared
Holland has en huge tradition of home births and waiting till 42 weeks with intervention, but there has been discussion about that in recent years because we do apparently have a higher rate of complications and death around delivery then other countries where they don't let it come to 42 weeks, I don't know the numbers though
I had an appointment to be induced in the morning at 42 weeks exactly, but I arrived at that appointment having contractions every 5 mins :D
I also thought knowing the gender made it much more real and personal. Between us we called her by her name from when we knew she was a girl for instance.

I went to a red carpet do yesterday to watch the premier of Danny and the Human Zoo. It's a sort of autobiographical programme about Lenny Henrys early life that's on BBC1 on bank holiday Monday. It was great as it was filmed all over Dudley and I even got to chat with the stars! That's Kascion Franklin and Lenny Henry. Also the twins from Harry Potter were there but I didn't get a picture with them because I only saw one of them after the film. There's no point unless you can get both, right?

And yes.. I like to get dressed up for events.

It is indeed, and such a relief !

Didn't get much sleep last night, and it was a pretty long morning/afternoon but yeah, all clear so worry has literally dissipated.

Good thing I got my Nespresso machine and have been hitting it hard :D

It will probably be quite tiring whilst you get back into the swing of things. A phased return will hopefully help in that regards. Had you been off for long?

When I left my last relationship and moved back into my flat, I managed to do all of that for about a week and then I fell back into my lazy-bones mode - kudos if you can keep it up!

Well I moved out last October, so it's taken all of ten months and seven weeks off work to get to this stage, so I'm determined to keep it up now.

I quite like the idea of using adult as a verb.

I'm going to adult tonight.

I'm still in bed and have eaten dry cereal using my hands, out of the box.

I think you'll find I'm the clear winner here.

'Still in bed' sort of implies you've had the cereal at hand all night. Is this the case? Do you sleep with a box of rice crispies next to you?

Post subject:  Re: The 'Yay!' thread
No, I have to get up to use the bathroom approximately avery 120 seconds. I poured a handful of 'golden nuggets' (cereal, made for kids) into a bowl and brought them back to bed with me on a detour past the kitchen about two hours ago.

I have only just realised that I have a whole tin of cereal bars that Russell put out for me, which would have made more sense.

Also, a macaroni cheese he made last night, which I could have microwaved.

Maybe if I go for a walk to the kitchen a little later I will investigate.
