BD'ing my butt off--whose in it for November??

[bazzb]

I would do it amamanda!

Tara I won't forget lol!!

 

[MommyNikki]

I only had a shower with my first because my son came the year after and I was told it wouldn't be polite to have two showers because I would have most of the stuff from my first. I won't have a shower with this one either, mostly because I have everything and because it wouldn't be fair to do it with mikayla and the new baby and not for Memphis.

 

[Womble12]

No shower for me either, its not so common to have them in the uk, tho its becoming more popular. We are gonna have have a nursery list though with john Lewis - uk girls I had it recommended as they go through everything you need, such as blankets, sheets, basics, everything. We go on 15 June. I also registeted for boots baby club where you get a free changing bag and 10 points per £ spent on baby stuff which makes it like a 10% discount!

Amanda, I'd def register if it means you get discounts!!

Tara, be so nice to be carefree and jump in a freezing pool like your kids!!! And I love greasy food after a night out!! So glad u had a nice evening. I'm not a huge drinker but I am looking forward to having a few glasses of wine once the baby is here.... followed by greasy hangover food the next day!!

Nikki, I've had terrible joint pain but its actually eased up the last week or so. But lower back has been hurting. I asked the doctor but he was useless. Hope yours is more helpful.

Bailey, good luck for your appt, today I think?

Good afternoon ladies, Happy Memorial Day to the states girls!!!! I am working today but have relief coming in a few hours so I can go home and spend the day with my kiddos... They were so bummed I had to leave as they woke this am. After them being gone for 2 days I surely missed them. However ask me later when they have had enough of eachother and are being oil and water. lol

Amanda Register a discount is a discount!!!!! I would! and it is more common in the states like if I was to EVER get preggers again it's common cause my kids are older than 5 to have another shower it's a new trend....I won't be as my sister has lots of nice hand me downs!!! but first I have to have the baby to get em lol...... Hope everyone has a wonderful day!!!

Bailey will be stalking to see how ur dr apt goes.......Hope u get answers cuz I need the same ones

Hello ladies! Amanda lovely bump pic and I love your scan pics too! The hb in the teddy is unbelievably cute and a fab idea! I think you should defo register.. It means people can get you things if they like and that way they'll be getting you the stuff you want. I'm having two babyshowers! I never chose to have two but my workmates always throw a "work" babyshower for anyone who goes off preg, and my little sis wanted to organise me another just for family and close friends. I wouldn't have bothered to have one as as Sophie says they not that common over here but it's lovely for people to want to throw me one so happy to go with the flow... Quite excited actually!
Sophie did u have a nice time in Brighton? Weather has been fab here too but there's been a bit of a nippy wind at times! So jealous that you're off to sorrento- I've never been but it looks amazing.. I'm desperate for a holiday!
Tara I can't believe af is still not with you! You should defo make an appointment with your doc to get some answers. Jealous that you have a pool set up.. Would love a float in the water.. Hmm think I might just have to go swimming this week!
Nikki sorry to hear your feeling sore.. Are u in mat leave yet?
Bailey hope your appointment went well today!
Afm I had my whooping cough vaccine today.. Arm is agony! Lol. But all in all it was ok. Just had a nice quiet weekend seeing family and pottering about the house. I've washed all baby's clothes and organised them, and me as hubby bought our cot (crib for you American ladies) at long last- as well as some super cute bedding! It's all getting so real now!
Hope everyone is well xxx

My friends were going to throw me a shower if I was having a girl, but since it's a boy we kept a lot from when Mikey was a baby, so I don't need a whole lot! I'm thinking about having a "meet the baby" get together after the baby is born, and people can bring diapers if they want.

Jenna- I still need to get mine too. It makes your arm sore?

Bailey- good luck on your appt today!

 

[Dollybird]

A bit.. But so do most injections so I think it's par for the course. When are u planning to get yours? Xxx

 

[MommyNikki]

I'm not on maternity leave yet, I am take it whenever but I've been trying to hold out cuz I know ill miss the money.

 

[bazzb]

Hi ladies here's an update from my app

So there is no explanation as to why no ovulation and periods
So now I am being sent to a gynaecologist and my dr said they will prob give me clomid or femera to help me ovulate(may have to wait a month or two for a app)

In the mean time i can take my prometrium to give me a period while I wait

 

[MommyNikki]

I've heard really good things about people getting pregnant on clomid...are you excited to take the next step?

 

[bazzb]

Yea I am
Just hate the wait

So gonna stop temping as ntnp til my app

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Jenna- not sure. I am going to ask my doc about where to get it at my appt Wednesday.

Bailey- hopefully you will get your bfp on your first round of clomid! I've heard clomid can also increase the chance of multiples!

 

[bazzb]

On lord lol
My grandmother is a twin too lol
Lots of them in my family

Hope the gyno does put me on clomid I guess I'll have to wait and see

 

[mtln777]

[bazzb]

I hope this Gyno will give me clomid my dr said he prob will

While I'm waiting fir my app i will attempt to relax lol no tempting and no opk and maybe some wine

I've also cut out my morning tea and replaced it with a smoothie with protein added
I started that last week

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Bailey, what kind of doc where you seeing? Just a family practitioner? I was just wondering because I go to a gyno/OB. I see her even when I'm not prego for my yearly women's checkup (pap & breast exam).

 

[mackjess]

sorry to hear you had a reaction dolly. I just got my shot at my ob on Friday and was happy to not have any soreness. my arm is usually pretty sore after flu shots so I was pleasantly surprised. Amanda, st my appt they brought it up and said they like to do them around 32 weeks, so even if you forget to ask they will probably bring it up. I say that cause I meant to ask at my last 2appts and prego brain kept forgetting.

Bailey, Tara, thinking of you ladies. and Tara call your doc!

 

[bazzb]

I see family dr Amanda and now she is sending to a gynocologiast
I also see an endocrinologist for my thyroid

Jenna sorry your arm is hurting that sucks

 

[Dollybird]

Hey ladies. Bailey glad your appointment went well, And as the others have said I've heard wonderful things about clomid! Hope your specialist appointment comes round quickly, and glad you're feeling chilled out in the meantime.
Thanks jess- it's not so
Bad I guess and a small price to pay to protect my wee man.
Hope all you ladies are doing well. I'm feelin pretty pants today. Dunno why. Just no energy at all and feel kinda Achey. Has a rubbish nights sleep- ended up having to try and sleep sitting up due to my reflux and carpal tunnel so I'm guessing that's prob why. Poor hubby been working all day and is gonna come home to a messy house and a slobby wife! Lol. Hope I get a better sleep tonight and feel
More human tomorrow. Yesterday I was feeling so good and felt like time was flying, and today I feel like the next 8 weeks are gonna drag! I just wanna meet my wee man!
Bought more bits an bobs last night- steriliser, bottles, monitors etc. excited for everything coming.. Should be here tomorrow xxx

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

That's nice to know Jess!

Jenna, have you tried Prilosec OTC for the reflux? I was having horrible reflux and had to constantly take tums, but then I asked my doc and she gave me some samples of Prilosec, and it has helped a ton!!
