Chilly Wednesday

Nov 01, 2006 13:21

Weekend then, worked at Contact Centre on Saturday - lots of people didn't turn up (due to half-term end I assume) so it was nice and quite. Got the bus over to see old sparklielizard and young Bethan who was very well behaved for her Auntie Amy. Lots of lovely baby-holding and chatting. Rosie guessed that I am having a girl from observing my personage but ( Read more... )

You're not too fat!! (icon is 22 weeks btw!)

Me at 19 weeks

Me at 19 weeks again

I can't say you look awfully larger than me! If at all. So there :-)

I never did get a maternity coat - fortunately it was summer and it didn't rain! Too damned expensive.

Good luck for Dave :-/

I know!!!

Bloody mothers, talk about trying to give me body issues! She said that she didn't start showing until five months but depending on how you calculate things I'm nearly there anyway. I know I am bigger than some people from seeing all stages at yoga and from people posting on FF but I'm easily within normal parameters.

Decided it was worth the money - hope I'm not disappointed when it turns up.

Yep, you're not far off 5 months. Technically (especially if you're slim - perhaps your mum was fatter!!) the uterus goes above the pelvic bones at 13 weeks, so you could genuinely (i.e. not bloating) show from then. Plus people show more or less depending on time of day, food eaten etc.

Coat definitely worth the money in winter.

btw, am now sorta considering Bromley when we move in 2-3 years time.. possibly! Which are the nice/nasty parts or are there too many to list in an online communication?

She was slimmer than me - as she takes pains to remind me on a regular basis.

Bromley (borough):
Nice: Sundridge Park, most of Beckenham, Hayes, Locksbottom (no train station), the Palace Estate (near Bromley North), West Wickham OK, Chislehurst (more expensive but nice and villagey), Shortlands

Nasty: Grove Park, Turpington Estate/Bromley Common (no offence tga!), Downham, Penge, St Mary Cray, St Paul's Cray,

Happy to advise re specific roads if you ever get that far.
