The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version.

Anyone else expecting a November sparkler? *Updated with due dates!*

Hello :wave:

Peanut, I agree with everyone else, just say no. I understand too, about worrying about the babies. I only had my scan on Tues, and now I'm worrying about the next one at 12 weeks, and worrying about how many heartbeats I'll see. It's rediculous I know :dohh: I guess your twins will be non identical also? I think a lot of the risks associated with twin pg, are lower when each twin has their own placenta. Anyway! :hugs:

Lora, not missing alcohol one bit! I feel so proud ;)

Dazed, my mil has told me I'm not allowed to breast feed! I'm realistic, that with twins, it will be very difficult, but to say I'm not to do something is just rediculous! She better start restricting her "advice" or I'll tell her where to stick it! Stupid woman really gets my goat!

Well, my house is a mess, dinner needs cooking, and I'm far to tired to entertain doing either! On a brighter note, an really enjoying elderflower cordial right now!

Is anyone else still getting cramping/stretching? I can't say it's cramps because its nothing like period cramps, but I'm aware of something down there! Also, I've been pain in my hip and also my right butt cheek! Must be all the sitting I'm doing!
 
Zowiey, of course you can breastfeed, if you want to! Like you need her permission. The gall of some people! I'd encourage you to get in touch with your children's centre breastfeeding groups, NCT or LLL during pregnancy so you can ask whatever you want and have support in place for when you give birth (I encourage anyone to do that, actually). It's totally achievable. I've known many twin mums to absolutely rock at breastfeeding and meeting their goals.

And I'm getting lots of round ligament pain lately. I can feel the top of my uterus under the flab, just at the very bottom of my tummy. No bump, but I know it's there. ;)
 
Thanks girls. You are very good at making people feel better :)

Peanut I hate paps too, I find them awful even though they don't hurt as such. I just find the whole thing unpleasant. Can you refuse hon?

Dazed I'm dreading it when people find out as they're bound to have an opinion. My mum has already told me she will be coming to stay for the first week after the birth.....not bloody likely hahaha. I want some space to bond thanks!

Lora I've never been a massive drinker so not missing it yet. Do enjoy the occasional bottle of wine with OH though, so think I might miss that in time as it's nice to relax together with a glass of wine.

Zowiey I've done no housework and we ordered chinese for tea! I have no energy or motivation to do anything today!!
 
We had fish and chips for tea!! Well good friday you are suppose to have fish are you not :haha:

Fancy so much bad stuff with this pregnancy, been told as slightly overweight can't put on as much weight as someone with a lower BMI so why is it all i want to eat is crisps, choc, sweets, basically junk food. Have to force myself to eat fruit which i used to eat by the bucket load.
 
With USA though, I assume there are issues with your health insurance if you don't jump through the hoops they ask you too. I too am glad to be in the Uk!!
 
Had my first scan today and got an EDD of November 18. Can you please change it on the front page? Thanks!
 
I will just have to wait until I am at the OB office wednesday morning and see if I can refuse it. TY for the comments ladies. gardenofedens congrats on the new EDD
 
Yay Garden fab news on the scan. I can't wait until Tuesday for my first scan. The first 2 weeks after my BFP flew by, but these last few days have been dragging so badly.

We have a 4 day weekend for Easter and it's the only time ever that I have wished it to go by really quickly!

You can totally breastfeed twins! My aunt had fraternal twins and bf them both for a year :)
 
You girls have been quiet :shrug:

I have a cold :cry: I've pulled something in my back and I have an inflamed Achilles' tendon. I'm seriously fed up today.

*rant over*

How is everyone? X

I'll come and sit with you in the fed up corner. William has been sick again today so I havent even bothered to get dressed. Feel shattered even though i got another lie in today.

Im just annoyed- hubby doesnt get that much time off work. At Xmas we were all poorly with the norovirus, and now he has 4 days off, William chooses to be poorly so we cant even go anywhere/do anything! Its not his fault, poor little soul, but its just typical isnt it!

Its our anniversary tmw too and i havent even managed to go and get a card :wacko:

Other than that, Im fine :rofl:

:hugs: it is Sod's law chick! Poor William, bless him. Xx
 
Oh girls, sounds like you both need hugs

I'll join the group hug, cramps, bloated and ms today, feel icky!!

Hope your day improves xx
 
Today is my first day to relax and do things I want to do! My big plans for the 3 day weekend is to clean and tidy the house. So far I have managed to get up and cuddle my cat haha. I have been feeling ok today, the start of gas and bloatedness gas begun. Huge boobs, and slight twinges in round ligaments every now and then.
I'm slightly jealous if everyones early scans! I don't get mine till 23rd April. My first midwife appt is on the 8th April. I'm so pleased to get my dates, cos we are going to announce to our family after the scan. Especially because we are going home to New Zealand for a surprise trip to see my folks for my dads 60th, and will also announce our baby news to them in person. So excited! Roll on the next 4wks, to get past first tri and settle into the 2nd.
 
I feel pretty cack today. In fact, I have literally only just had a shower after monging out on the sofa all day watching terrible TV! Luckily for me, OH went out last night so is feeling a little delicate himself today so he is monging out on the other sofa and just going to jump in tthe shower himself!

Morning sickness seems ok today (apart from few gaggy moments when I brushed my teeth first thing and just now after my shower) but I am bloated and a bit crampy. Starting to wonder if I have a UTI as I keep getting funny aches/pains in my back where my kidney would be.

Hope everyone is doing better than me!
 
Oh dear ladies, we are falling apart at the seams!

:hugs: xx
 
I told my children last night and plan to tell my parents tomorrow.
We have bought them an easter egg and I've done some surgery to it. I made a small slit in the side and posted a picture of a stork carrying a baby inside it. I'm going to get them to open it with us there.
it may be a shock to them as I have three children 21, 19 and 14 and we thought we were finished with little ones, then this time last year I found myself pregnant, but miscarried at about 11 weeks and then was left with this huge gaping baby shaped hole in my heart. I told everyone that we would try again, but they probably thought I'd stopped trying as it's taken so long to get pregnant again. I was even looking at new jobs etc and then out of the blue I'm pregnant.
 
Well after my night of being judged and attacked I decided to,start sorting my house out so,Grayson is now in a toddler bed the cot as been dismantled and put in the cupboard living room and kitchen cleaned!

Im now in bed resting before I go mount for my bday tonight with real friends xxx

This is a brilliant idea- cant wait for you to tell us their reactions :)

Laura- what?! OMG, by who? :hugs:
