Omg they are due in half an hour. House is scrubbed and cleaned, paperwork out ready and children shipped off to Grandma's. Should be doing last minute cramming but as I didn't sleep last night thought would give my head a rest! Why is it so nerve racking??? Hope it all pays off now and that the dog doesn't show me up (and the dog was sick this morning!). Eeek hope Fri 13th over soon

Thank you so much for all the replies of good luck, it was very much appreciated. Big relief its all over, it went very well!! She is recommending the max number of children, so very pleased about that. I have been stressing about things and there was no need, no areas to be looked at or anything, if fact after speaking to the lady I am not going to do as much now, ie was going to change my children's rooms to accommodate a playroom but she said it wasn't necessary and other things.
Feel much better now, they are there to guide and help definitely, not tear the house/paperwork apart. Also going to change some risk assessments as I went a bit over the top and didn't need to. Was even told ways to reduce the paperwork. Lovely lady and def not worth the sleepless night and stress. So good luck to anyone else with pre-reg coming up and thanks again for all the comments!! xx

I would call them and ask. I was waiting for pre-reg visit for 2 months and as I was in rush I called them and had my visit in 2 weeks after that :)
