Illyria

Ten days to go, and the baby is 4/5ths engaged, which means it is nearly ready to come out! Still pretty wriggly! Here are my helpful hints for making it through!

1. Have mrBen as a husband. Not only are all those costumes fabulously entertaining, he cooks really well too!

2. Cereal bars, or if you’re naughty like me, jaffa cakes. Keep some by the bed and in your handbag AT ALL TIMES. You’ll never regret it.

3. Rennie Rapeze fruit flavour or chewy mint - as for no. 2.

4. Not drinking after 8pm, and eating just before bed seems to stop me waking up in the middle of the night hungry or desperate to pee. You do need to drink lots in the day time to make up your fluids.

Things I wish I’d bought:

1. Braces. Maternity trousers - and I’ve tried a LOT of brands - just fall down all the time! The best ones were from Dorothy Perkinks - over the bump, cheap and long lasting.
