Amy, That is the best early scan picture I have seen so far! You can actually see your baby so clearly. I have everything crossed for you

Shona, Hope you have a great scan tomorrow and your head aches go soon I only had mine in the forst trimester and were glad that they were gone. Just do what you feel is best for you hun x x

Natasha, hope you and the boys are doing well x

Adrienne, How is your knee healing hun? Hope you are getting back fighting fit. Any news on the IVF?

Karen, You look amazing in your profile picture. I hope your glucose test goes well

Arlene- How has the move gone, are you all unpacked?

Rachael, I hope you are not over doing it with your packing. Is it only 2 weeks now until your move??

Wendypops, I hope you are taking it easy Mrs and managed to get your cot up and ready

Just to let you all know that Carly is doing well and just waiting for Sam to arrive, she has had no twinges or anything yet but has just had to take a break from the forum for a bit. Once Sam is here she will be sure to upload some pictures x

Well sorry I havent been on here much but Daisy has been a handful. I dont think that it is colic that has been causing her problems as you can see at times when she is led quitely nearly asleep that something hurts her and then she starts screaming out in pain. I have a feeling what it might be and we have a doctors appointment tomorrow to see what they think. I am not holding out much hope though as a lot of doctors takes months to diagnose silent reflux so we will see

Anyway, speak to you all soon, I have a date with a bath and a glass of wine whilst Gavin is watching Daisy moo

I'm not overdoing it, and yes, just 2 weeks until we move!

Hope everyone is ok. I have my gtt this morning. Yuk.

Oh Rachael that gtt test is no fun. My FS had me do one when I first went to her. Just don't throw it up or you have to do the whole thing all over again. You must be so excited for your move. First new place then new baby not far behind. You're going to have an exciting next few months.

Hey adrienne ive just noticed your.weightloss ticker! Well done losing 45lbs! Nearly to your goal weight: hopefully this will have you in great shaoe for a baby

Thanks Nat. I'm in the maintance phase of my diet now so it might take me a little longer to get those last few pounds off.

Emma it really is a buyers market just now, but with no such thing as 100% mortgages people are really struggling to get the deposit. Would buying another place and letting out your flat until the market picks up a bit be an option for yous? I'd be lying if I said everything was unpacked Kyle still has 5 boxes of toys, that we're going to have to take a trip to ikea and get some storage systems! Theres some other things still in boxes, like our camping/hill walking things, his fishing things, we'll eventually go throw them and sort them a bit better so they can go up in the loft. Hope you got some answers at the doctors

Natasha you've done so well breastfeeding, you didnt seem to mention any problems doing while doing so? Are you expressing at all? The keyring is lovely!

Karen hope your still keeping well

Shona you really have had a time of it with the headaches I came straight off caffiene and had chronic headaches, so now i'm down to just one big mug in the morning! And use decaff the rest of the time. What is your midwife saying about them?

Amy as the other ladies have said, what an amazing scan photo at just over 6 weeks! I've never seen anything like it.

Good to hear Carly is doing well

Adrienne i'll need some tips from you about losing weight after this baby!! You have done so well

Wendy hope your keeping well

As for me I was meant to see my consultant yesterday but she'd been called to an emergency elsewhere, so she'd handed over to a sonographer, who was delighted to say she could find my left ovary (which I was pleased about!) and that it doesnt look like the cyst has grew She confirmed its definately a dermoid cyst with 2 solid particles and will have to be removed after birth , it has pretty much covered the the majority of the ovary on the right side so dont think they'll be saving much there. On a lighter note, baby is about 2lb and growing perfectly, we were talking about how MIL wants to know the sex but I wasnt for finding out and she showed us that the baby must be shy anyway as her/his legs couldnt have been shut any tighter! I got a little photo of the foot, and 2 side on. I'll post eventually when I remember we're I put my camera I have another appointment with the consultant on the 23rd march so she can say for sure a plan of action then a 30 week scan the following week to confirm all looks good for a home birth!

Glad everything is going is well Arlene won't be to much longer til your little one shows up.

Glad everything is on track for your homebirth Arlene!

Amy I've never seen such an early scan before, it's amazing that you can see where your LO is!! So clear!! I'm so pleased that all is going well for you!!

Arlene I used the lansonol(sp?) stuff twice in the first week of BF, but that's all. No problem's at all I've expressed about 5 time's. I don't have much oppotunity to in the day as Ely doesn't sleep mush during the day, and I don't want to end up having to give him what I've just expressed if there's not enough left in there for when he want's it. The past few evening's, I probably could of before going to bed, but I'm too lazy When he wake's in the night, he's usually sorted and back down in 15min's or less, though the past 2 night's he's slept through!! midnight to 6:30 on saturday, and 21:30 to 7:20 this morn, so pleased!!
Chuffed for you on the good news of everything!! How long after the birth will they be doing the op? I'll be keeping fx'ed for your home birth go ahead, and lookin forward to seeing your scan pix!!

All ladies Hope your well

AFM Had a busy week, took the boy's to a sure start 'play cafe' session, and Auron loved it!! It's on mon-thurs so I'm gonna take them again tomorrow and thursday. There was a male member of sure start staff on when we went, and Auron was surprisingly taken by him, really really liked him!! When I told Auron to come and put his coat on for us to leave, he went straight over to the guy, looked up at him with puckered up lip's to give him a kiss and a hug, bless him. The guy wasn't sure how to act I don't think!! He went to give Auron a hug but Auron insisted on giving him a kiss was so sweet. Had my mum stay with us from fri-sun, which was alright. Slightly annoying that she insist's on getting here so early (she was u at 4AM, and was here by 11AM on friday) but will then fall asleep on the sofa for a good 3hour's!! (2PM she fell asleep on the sofa, I had to wake her up just before dinner was ready! Then she stayed up for who know's how long after we went to bed, and had another nap in the afternoon on saturday, after we got back home from taking Auron to an indoor play area and doing some shopping) What's the point in getting here so early to fall asleep? I'd rather she got here 3hour's later, and spent all her time here awake at least whilst Auron was awake, or am I just being a whinny little B**ch?
Anyway, she was on the train by 11AM sunday, so we took Auron to the park, saw the duck's, and had brunch at my work. Watched a film at home (Spiderman 2) before going to Nick's parent's for dinner. Would of slept really well last night if it wasn't for Auron getting up twice, first time he tried to get into our bed, and second time he wanted milk!
I have a new project, I'm gonna learn patchwork and quilting!! Got some batman and superman fabric coming, and found some marvel fabric, gonna cross stitch marvel/DC characters onto plain fabric, and patchwork it all together to make cool blanket's for the boy's!! I'm really lookin forward to starting it! Found a DC cross stitch book, but it could take untill April 26th to be delivered (from US!) so it should give me plenty of time to get all the material's I need and a bit of patchwork practice!!

Yay arlene its all coming tigether! Im sorry about the cysts tho

Natasha that sounds like a fun but time consuming project!
