Stockpiling Goods, Obs Appoint #6 & last antenatal class

Decided to do my last big shop today and boy what a biggie! Bought tonnes of washing detergent, juices, cereal and long life milk to last a few months. I figured that with Andrew going into surgery tomorrow and with me getting more pregnant this might be my last opportunity and this will surely make life in the first few weeks of bub easier.
Obstetrician appointment showed everything was normal except for my occasional tendency to burst into tears.
The third and final antenatal class was on tonight. Half the class was run by a physio which was really useful. We learnt about the changes to the body and how to minimise them. Reaffirmed a lot of the things I've been doing over the last few months. It's been great going to Briony's exercise classes as she's one of the physios from the hospital and it's forced me to do the exercises. Looking around the room, there weren't too many others who looked like they'd left the couch in months, even years. The second half of the class was run by a lactation consultant who filled us in on all the pros of breast feeding. I don't think any of us left the room thinking that they wouldn't give it a go! To summarise, it all appears to be about attachment.
