claire - nights all the time may be tougher, as you say, you need some time at home!! hopefully he can use ear plugs or the tv trick will work. you never know, we might have great babies who dont cry much...

if you do go shopping tobaira, hope it goes well! my trip was a success, got a load of maternity clothes, shopped around and got some great reductions. think im almost kitted out now, and most of the tops i could get away with wearing from now and then after as well. also got the most gorgeous lion king vest for baby, its sooo cute.

hope everyone is well and looking forward to the weekend x
 
Happy birthday dreamer & lilrojo hope you've both had a lovely day and been spoilt rotten.

Thanks for the advice dreamer, part of me wishes i would actually be sick as i think id feel better then. Had my scan date through today which has cheered me up so got that to focus on now x
 
Just found out my best mate is pregnant....I'm so excited!!! She's 3 months behind me, so we'll be off on maternity togther and all sorts...yay!!
 
ok this may sound like a stupid question but do you know the way that our tickers tell you wat size the baby is by showing you a fruit......is that the size of their head!!!???

its only cause my babies were 26 cm long at 23 weeks and a pound in weight ....so im getting a little confused!

No, I think its the size of the whole baby. But its only a rough guide, it will be different for everyone. Apparently though, the next few weeks they do grow alot! x
 
claire- that's awesome that your best mate is pregnant. My best friend from high school is thinking about having another one and I'm trying to encourage her lol. DH's ex-roommate just had his first a couple months ago, so they will be about 8 mos ahead of us which is fun.

Had a good time at the multiples sale. Took my mom, sister and sister-in-law as well as DH - and came back with tons of clothes lol! Everyone's excited to have new babies to shop for. Most of it is gender neutral (green) but there were a few matching things for boys or girls that were bought too. We also got one of those bouncer/vibrating seat things and DH decided we just had to get the playtent with the tunnel, even though I told him it's going to be quite awhile for that!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. I don't tend to get on the computer much on the weekends anymore but it is so hot today that the basement is the only place I can stand to be, and all that's down here to do is the computer lol!
 
Congrats and welcome rachel1981!!

Happy bday dreamer and lilrojo! Sorry I am late with my congrats, but was out of town this weekend!

Claire thank you for the dentist advice! I think I will get my cavity filled. I am going to use my old xrays, and hopefully it didn't get too much worse. It was only a small one, but that was like 6 months ago. My appt is in a few weeks...I hope it isn't bad for the baby to have it done??

I made it to seattle and back without bleeding! Yay! I was so worried I was going to be in another state and not know what to do if I started bleeding.

Hope all is well with everyone!! I have an ultrasound tomorrow, so hoping baby will open his or her legs tomorrow so we can get a definite answer on the gender!
 
welcome and congrats rachael!!!!!

stranjgirl, good luck with your scan tomorrow!!! hope that baby plays nice hehe. do you have any inklings on whether your having a boy or girl?

tobaira, hope its cooled down a little and glad you got lots of bits at the sale

i'd had a really bad headache for 3 days solid, but i think (fingers crossed) it may be gone this morning. i really hope so! x
 
welcome Rachel!

glad to hear your trip went well Straje - so excited about your scan!! I want to know genders so badly but have 5 weeks, so I'm going to live vicariously and get excited about yours lol!!

sorry to hear about your headache dreamer.. I find caffeine helps mine (not a lot, just a little) so I'll have like 1/3 of a coke when I get them.
 
when is your scan to find out the genders tobaira? 5 weeks is roughly when mine is, 22nd Sept. cannot wait!!!

i shall have to try the caffeine. i called the doc yesterday to see if they had any advice, and they just said sounded like a tension headache, just paracetamol, 4head stick, light massage, warm bath to sooth my muscles. mostly been ok today, although think its coming back slightly now. they've booked me in for an appointment tomorrow, just to give me a quick checkup as I havent seen a doc/midwife since 7-8 weeks when they did an early booking appointment x
 
welcome and congrats again rach..........is it sinking in yet? wat you doing abt your new job???when do you start?

i have a sore pelvis today.......cant weight bare! have to see doc on friday.............i wonder is ther anything else that i dont have!!!!!!
 
dreamer - mine technically isn't scheduled yet but I go in on Monday and they schedule me every 4 weeks so it should be sometime the week of the 19th. I will only be 19 weeks, but I think they should be able to tell then (otherwise I would have to wait til 23 weeks and I totally can't wait that long!!!). I'm going to see if I can get them to guess/estimate on Monday when I go in but since it's only 15 weeks I don't really expect much.

sorry to hear about your pelvis trixie, hopefully it goes away..

I'm beginning to think I spend way too much time on this site.. I think I may have to stop working from home, because I'm getting nothing done at home except napping and surfing the web!
 
Congrats and welcome Rachael!!

Dreamer - so sorry about your headache. I had a terrible one the other night that just would not go away, even after I went to sleep - but it didn't last 3 days! That sounds horrendous! I second Tobaira's rec regarding the caffeine - you probably know this, but it's the active ingredient in most headache meds, so it should definitely help (in small quantities of course!)

So excited for all your gender scans...we're team yellow (or as i prefer, team green) so i want to live vicariously through all of you!
 
Thank you for the welcomes! :D

I'm going to tell them when I'm in training, I start on September 12th :D

Hope the sore pelvis isn't too bad :hugs:
 
Happy 4 weeks rach..

working-im also team green :)
 
ooh, I love green! It's my favorite color! I would paint the nursery green but 1/4 of the house is already green so it seems like an overkill lol..

I have an odd question, maybe it's just me, but does anyone else not like people calling them mama? Like people at work or even my sister will come up and say "how's mama" feeling today.. it just really bothers me for some reason, I consider myself pregnant not a mom, I'll be a mom after their born. And it seems like EVERYONE does it except my actual mom and DH. Maybe it's just me, but I really don't like it..

ok rant over.. =)

I'm sure it will be fine, but I would get the dentists advise. Give them as much info on your medical history, mainly that you have had a bit of a difficult time with your pregnancy. They might not want to put anymore stress on your body esp if you're a bit of a nervous patient.
If they are happy to do it then go for it, or if they think it can wait then thats your choice hun. xxx
