    It's been a nice quiet evening. Joseph went to sleep about 15 minutes after we put him in his cot, and has slept since, he was exhausted. I'm hoping he doesn't wake when we go to bed this time. I've done some expressing and my Pilates exercises, neither of which I've done in a few days. I'm really sleepy now, I really hope Joseph sleeps better tonight.

    Overdid it a bit at the weekend and went to bed at 8pm last night woopsy.
    Off to get flu and whooping cough jab in a bit, not sure if they will give it to me while I've still got a cold but it's easier to go there and talk to the nurse rather than try and get through on the phone!

    Today Is our 17 year anniversary- literally been together half my life! Totally insane!

    Went to lovely steakhouse M&C- realised Tuesday is clearly date night- we sat there next to other couples watching the awkward ones that were clearly not a match and then talked about our wedding, how we have got to where we are and remembering that we don't think we really had official dates at uni as we all just went out clubbing !

    Drinking on a school night it not a good idea, especially when need to be in early for 8am meeting doh!

    There's still some tickets available if you're signed up to the @m@20n tickets pre-sale. It did take me about 45 minutes to secure tickets because the website kept crashing or failing to load when you were almost at checkout but finally got them. Not cheap! I was tempted by the VIP tickets but cannot justify over £200 per ticket.

    You have to pre-order their album, or just sign up for pre-sale to get in there. Of course as a massive lifelong fan (since I was like 11 years old lol) I pre-ordered their deluxe album due for release in March. The seats had better be good for £108 per ticket.

    Afternoon all

    Sorry not been around lately. Started my nights on Sunday and they've been so busy. No let up at all on any of them, if there are any pregnant women left on the island I shall be amazed! Every morning I've come in and more or less straight to bed. Even today after my last one I went to bed and slept until just after 1pm. Thought blow it, I'm not even going to attempt to stay up. Got the dentist this evening, hopefully the cap they put on will be the correct size.

    108 per ticket wow that's expensive but I'm sure it will be totally worth it. I can't even spend 52 to go and see Iron Maiden/Shinedown next year.

    Jen what do you think of DP maternity wear? I've seen some skinny jeans on Ge0rg3 for £16 I'm gonna order! Be worth a try at that! I want a maternity coat too without paying a fortune but have yet to see one I like.

    GF I'm on nights too. I'm in tonight and tomorrow night then not back until next Friday night thanks to AL. Thank goodness as I'm so tired. I haven't got closing my eyes today so dreading tonight.

    Hubby has his van up for mot this evening hopefully it passes. I'm going to meet him to take LO to try out bikes for Xmas then I'll go on to work and hubby take him home.

    Annoyed I'm gonna miss GBBO final tonight!!

    Danielle, our first night was so busy and three of us had been partying the night before, we struggled, was so hard.

    I've just got veggies prepared for dinner tonight, doing a roast, still in pjs, Aunt Flo started making an appearance this morning so not only have I stomach ache, my toe is throbbing. First night at work was not too bad as I spent most of it just going to the room and back to the desk so not a huge amount of walking, the next night was tough and last night boy it hurt. I've taken pain killers but does not seem to be working. The bruising is not as bad, swollen a little and the bruising on the nail is coming out more,

    It was touch and go trying to get the tickets though. Took almost 45 minutes to secure them because of course the website couldn't cope with the amount of traffic to get tickets. I ended up with 2 devices going at the same time to try and get them. Finally my mobile actually managed to connect and secure the tickets before my tablet could. Crazy. So many people on fb were complaining of the same problems I was having with the website.

    I'm not doing a roast now, just got back from the dentist and hubby said lets get take out instead as it will be too late when it is ready.

    Finally got a cap that fits my mouth, feels good compared to what I had and the temporary one came off so quickly, the last temporary one didn't. That one was doomed from the start after having a bruised face as well.

    GF it sounds like you deserve a take out. Sounds like nights are luck of the draw. One night when I was in induction, a Sunday night, only three of us were on the ward. One was brought in about 10:30pm as her waters had gone 24 hours before, and she needed an induction agent straight away. I needed an exam and induction agent about 3:00am. The other girl was out of options and booked in for c-section the following morning. In between the two inductions we were all asleep and Wendy didn't need to do a thing. Other nights there was lots going on. Hannah who was with me in the delivery suite also had an ok night, as I was in there the whole time she was on shift. She had ARM, the routine checks, a clip on the baby's head, and from five hours in topping up the epidural, then it went to c-section just at handover time so she wasn't involved in the delivery. We spent most of the night chatting and listening to Classic FM until I fell asleep down to the combination of gas and air and epidural. She said herself it was one of the most relaxed nights she'd had.

    Danielle I didn't get much maternity wear. I got some over the bump knickers and over the bump leggings, plus bigger bras. I was able to manage with the tops and jumpers I had as they were largely loose enough or baggy enough to go over the bump. Fortunately I didn't need to do evening wear at any point. I got given a maternity coat by someone at work, but never actually used it, as my normal coat fitted until quite late in the pregnancy, when it was getting warmer anyway.

    Hope you are good, woken up to a very foggy morning here but the sun is starting to break through. I woke for a wee at some point last night, never checked my phone to see the time until i was dozing off and a text came through on hubby's phone, his one goes off again if it's not answered, so it did and that's when I checked the time, 0150hrs!!!!!!!! Not impressed, woke him and he said it was 33!!!! What the heck are they doing texting at that time of the morning? Took an age to get back off then

    Danielle - I love the DP maternity tops that have the cross over top over the boobs and stretch sides to allow for expanding bump. They had a sale of 25% off everything the other day so I splashed out a little. I find their leggings a little long but I just got some in short length that are perfect for me.
    I was panicking about needing a winter coat with baby due early March, I love going out for walks and it's especially needed since I haven't been able to get to the gym for classes since falling pregnant. Instead of a maternity coat I got a coat from D3b3nhams 2 sizes up with a big cosy hood that should see me through - it was in the blue cross sale the other week so was a bargain :)
