Only 5 weeks to go!

[Josie]

Only 5 weeks until Christmas, and more importantly (for me) baby Crampton is due. Anybody fancy taking a guess at the date, weight and sex of it??
Sorry, there are no prizes up for grabs for the closest guesses/premonitions, just greens!

My due date is 20th December, and it's a first baby, which often means they go over the due date, but not always.

We don't know if it's a boy or a girl so we keep coming up with both girls and boys names, and disagreeing (nothing's changed there then!!).

For those of you who don't know me, I'm quite large and was a large baby myself so I've been thinking that s/he will be a bruiser (my latest nickname for him/her!).

Personally I'm hoping that it will be early, and even if it's long like me, I'd like the head to be tiny!!!

One thing that I'm fairly sure about is that his/her dad will take him/her swimming as soon as possible and s/he will be introduced to snorkelling at a young age!!

Gwon then...

Boxing Day, 9lb 4 oz and a boy But for the latter guess to be accurate we really need a picture from the rear - get Dave to post one up!

21st December

Girl

7lb 10oz (nice pretty little head)

[Jules]

22nd december, girl 8lb 4 oz.... hopefully with her mothers looks rather than her dad's.

Dont other people's pregnancies go past quickly...

Noooooooo you cant call it Bruiser thats my cats name. He is the size of a small dog and weighs just under a stone and fights anything that comes into his territory plus he's a killing machine. No field mouse, vole, bird or frog is safe I just wish he would do the deed outside and not bring them indoors. Did anyone know that frogs squeak?

Good luck with the baby my guess is its a boy weighing in at 8lb 2oz and will be born on Christmas Night.

I have to say that I'm hoping that it won't be Christmas or Boxing Day as I don't fancy the thought of spending Christmas Day in pain!

Also if it's a boy then my mum will start on again about suitable Christmas Day names being Jesus or Brian, although a Boxing Day boy could be called Stephen which is Dave's middle name, and his dad's first name.

Lou - not sure if I understood this right - you want Dave to send you a picture of my arse??

I'd quite like the birth day to be before Christmas so that I can a) get drunk and pass out on the sofa after lunch as usual and b) can eat lots of camembert. Although I probably won't need any alcohol to be able to fall asleep in the afternoon!!

Don't worry, Bruiser's just an in the womb name - along with Baby Elvis, as both my mum and sister thought the scans looked like Elvis!!

I'll take Dec 23rd, that'll stop you doing the Xmas shopping for food, get Dave to do it. Weight - 10st 5lb, no that cant be right, I meant 10lb 5oz, phew that's better. Sex _ (I wont be "that" obvious) a boy.

Hold the arse picture.

Whenever "it" happens I hope it goes as well as my wife's two did and you are both (you and the baby, not you and my wife) well after the event.

Shouldnt you be painting the bedroom or eating chicken and banana pie or something instead of swanning about on here.

LOL! Well, that would feature, obviously!

The real reason is a current 100% record (including all the Spice Girls) at predicting baby's sex from the shape of the bump & mum So, a full length piccy from front and back would let us all play!

Guess is 8lb 6 and a beautiful baby girl on Boxing day.

Hope everything goes well, and you get her swimming as soon as possible.
