[happycupcake]

Yay! I'm so happy
I cried on the way back to the train station and said 'There's actually a real baby in there, and it's a girl!' lol

Oh bless you. I said the first bit about the actually being a baby in there to DH after my 12 week scan

Congrats cupcake!

Urgh this morning I was sick again. I've been feeling if but not sick since a few days after I got back from my friends, but today I literally sat up on the edge of the bed and it came so fast i didn't even get to the toilet. Thankfully I had only had a sip of water before getting up.

 

[happycupcake]

Thank you everyone

Mother I hope you're OK!

 

[motherofboys]

I am again now thank you. I'm annoyed at the little variety of neutral clothes in high street stores though. In the last 2 days I've been to Primark, Peacocks and Sainsbury's and haven't found anything for baby. I'm glad I've decided not to wait now.

Matalan have some lovely neutral stuff x

 

[motherofboys]

I haven't got one round here. I don't mind ordering but I only wanted to buy one small item for excitements sake so wanted to go out and choose it

 

[star25]

Congratulations happy! That’s such exciting news

Mother, oh no! Hope that’s the last of it this time

 

[happycupcake]

Star, thank you

Mother, yeah the choice is pretty lame most places isn't it. Marks & Spencer have some lovely baby clothes but they are mostly pink or blue.
Morrisons are the same. H&M I think have some but again it's mostly gender specific. You would think someone would have a decent range! Have you tried Tesco and Asda? Or Next?

 

[star25]

happy, sorry I know you’ve probably already said, but how many boys/girls have you got?

 

[motherofboys]

I could try Asda, possibly Tesco but it's rare I go in that direction.

My hips are killing me. I think it was being out and about 2 days in a row.

 

[star25]

It’s ok happy I read back, don’t know how I missed it!

 

[RoseM87]

Big congratulations, happy! That's so lovely for all of you.

Hope you feel better soon, Mother.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions of what to buy. I think number one thing to concentrate is finding somewhere to live, haha. Then everything else can fall into place.

 

[swedengirl]

Ahh that’s a shame mother! Hopefully it will go quickly to your scan and you can buy something then.

I decided to start focusing on DDs birthday and Christmas to stop my urge to buy stuff for baby!

So I think I’m in finding out gender now. I can see OH wants to know so badly and that urge is passing on to me and now I feel I’d like to know..

Felt three proper strong kicks yesterday. Baby seems to not like when I lean forward and gives me a kick back when I do it.

 

[motherofboys]

Rose, it will, and you know a lot of it you don't necessarily need before bringing baby home. I was thinking the other day that if I have a wrap (a friend offered me hers) and we've got ds4s car seat, then for the first few weeks at least I won't be going anywhere that I'll need a pram, so that could wait a couple of months and I'll get one before our summer days out.

Yeah, I think I'm just going to wait unless I have reason to go to the other supermarkets, then I'll look. I've made a proper start on Christmas now too. I'm trying to wait now until black Friday for the big boys tech stuff but after shopping Friday and Saturday I just want to keep going

 

[happycupcake]

Sweden I find the same when I lean forward too.

Star we have 6 already, four boys and two girls. I myself have had three of those boys and one girl.

My husband went out into town earlier today and surprised me when he came home with some pink clothes I also met my sister in town after that for a short while and bought a Flopsy bunny toy, I shall have to post a photo at some point because they're so sweet

Lovely news on the movement sweden and happy!
I haven’t felt it for a few Days now, I listened to the heartbeat a couple days ago and all good, luckily I’m too lazy to put the gel on and use it too often so I’m not addicted haha
Probably use it once a week to reassure myself
