Hi all hope you are all keeping well, can't wait to read about any new arrivals. been off for weeks now as we moved house and the internet connection went badly wrong and they couldn't connect us or find a fault.

Saul's doing good, had bloods done for allergy testing after phoning round hosp as Paed never made an appointment for us. Then when i called for results the doc weren't sure what they'd tested for so could only say looks like his okay!
Its Sauls 3rd birthday this sunday, we're having a BBQ with family and friends as we now have a house with a garden, bought him a small climbing frame as his present.
Think he understands about the baby now, signs baby and taps my belly. Even put a scan pic on his belly and tapped it in place.
Had three more scans as had to little fluid for dates, but everythign seems fine now. Also had contractions at 30weeks but luckily they didn't do anything. Had to spend the night in the hosp though and have steroids. two days later went back with chest pain and spent 3 days there waiting for CT scan which showed everything was fine.

Met a lovely new couple at my support group the other week, they're expecting in November.

This is so wierd, I was just thinking about you last night. I was going to ask if anyone had heard from Mashpotato and if you had your baby yet!
I'm so glad you posted and I hope your last few weeks of pregnancy go well, can't wait to see pictures of the new baby and of Saul's 3rd b-day party!!!

House move went well. We hired a van for £69 and was allowed it for 24hours, Rob's stepdad drove it for us. Saul got passed between my mum and Rob's mum he also slept at my Mum's house for 2 nights. We had arranged to get the bedroom furniture from Ikea and had to go there to buy it, which is over an hour away from us. Got there and they'd lost the whole range i wanted for Sauls room so we had to choose a new bed and wardrobe, then in the warehouse found they were missing 2 of teh 4 boxes for the wardrobe. Then we had to pay the £75 to get it delievered the next day. was not impressed.
But luckily it only took a couple of days to get everything unpacked, ended up ordering Saul a wardrobe from somewhere else.

The restaurant Rob was supposed to start at on teh 6th of June had its building work over run, and has opened for the first time tonight! His been in several times to help get things sorted, but the boss's are great, they've been paying him his wage still plus £50 extra to cover the tips he hasn't been getting. So his basically had 6 weeks holiday on full pay

Glad Saul is doing well and that you are settled in your move. I hate internet problems, glad you got them resolved. I hope your pregnancy continues on great!

Congratulations on the new house, it must be so nice to have a garden with all the hot weather that you've been having.

Happy early birthday to Saul, have fun with your BBQ Smile
