We will take all the seats out the scenic, it should be fine as it's a flat pack and we should not have too much stuff for ourselves for just 2-3 days there i just need to check the boot minus the seat will fit the max height of the wardrobe.

My arm looks bigger than my bump - it's like a wrestlers arm!! Yeh it's pretty non-existant for nearly 20 weeks! But I think it will suddenly really grow and I'll get bigger quickly. It must be something to do with breastfeeding and stress and running about after Sammuel!

No idea what is healthy weight gain, I am just of the opinion that if you eat fairly healthily and have a bit of what you fancy then you can't go wrong! Having put on 3.5stone last time and having lost it so quickly I'm just not bothered... I wasn't bothered last time either! But I know you're a weight obsessive

[Euronova]

Too much carrying baby around!!!
I think I have seen so many women around me that never regained their pre-pregnancy shape, I really want to do my best to avoid that!!! I think I would be a bit more relaxed if I did not have the wedding after the baby... I hate the idea of being centre of attention on the day so if i don't feel at least good in my own skin it's going to be horrible!
I am very well aware that it could all go tits up in the third trimester and I could just explode!!
You look so neat for 20 weeks does anyone even notices you are pregnant??
I am so wearing full on pregnancy clothes... or pyjamas

 

[SBB]

I don't think anyone would really notice to be honest! Most people just know... I haven't put my skinny jeans on for ages but they wouldn't fit. I am just in leggings and baggyish stuff really. If I even bother to get dressed

One of my friends has a 2 year old (almost) and still hasn't shifted the weight - but she formula fed from day one... and when your body creates all that fat to go to your baby and you don't give it to the baby - I guess it has nowhere to go! So BF does help I'm sure...

how did you leave it with him Marg? Where do you see it in 5 years time? Just from an outsiders point of view - he doesn't seem capable or willing to change, and he doesn't want the same things you do. How will you feel if in 5 years you're miserable, but you could have left and had another baby maybe with a new partner?

x x x

Yes I agree with Suz Marg- it's not about leaving him so you can have a baby with someone else - its more about making sure you don't stay with him, while knowing deep down it won't work in the long run and missing out on your chance to have a family with someone else x

No, I doubt it's going to change.This is what it is. But I also have Jackson to think about and I absolutely hate the idea of sharing him or the thought of not being with him for several days at a time. For God's sake I miss him when I put him to bed! I just want to crawl into his crib and hold him.

I just wanted to let you ladies know that when I come on here I see the pics of your little ones and they give me reason to keep trying hard to have a baby. I can't wait to stay up in the middle of the night with my crying baby..lol. Ladies y'all have some beautiful babies and they are definitely gifts from god and they are worth everything we go through to get them here and I know their is no greater love than the love of a child.

Thanks WAB and very sorry to hear AF got you!

Suz, you are one yummy mummy! But where's that baby hiding?

 

[Euronova]

It's horrible when people separate but sometime it's for the best.
My brother and his wife have a young daughter but every other weekend her son has to go see his dad. They obviously still have to plan to do stuff that weekend but he gets very upset as he wants to do the same things as his sister.
It's getting a bit better now as he gets older and he can do more with his dad (his dad now has a new GF with a boy similar age so they organise something every time he comes so it makes up for missing out on other stuff)

Was looking at blackout roller blinds online as we have new windows and the old ones don't fit anymore, just found some cheap and cheerful ones on Argos that seem perfect size (might not even have to do any fiddly cutting)... going to get them tonight! I hope they work as we could really do with not spending the money on made to order ones! (even though there are a lot of cheap places online, it's would still be about triple the price of the argos ones!)

Window man has been and changed the cracked window... OH has gone to the garage and it will be £400 to fix the dent... but we will wait after baby is born.. in case I have more pregnancy driving moments!

Found some cheap Eurotunnel tickets so just waiting to hear that my sister and brother are definitely around that weekend so we get to see them all...

Also nearly done my hospital bag... I am so terribly early with everything but i feel everything i can afford to pay now I don't have to pay later on... so trying to have a head start on it all

I don't think we will need any clothes with all that SIL has given us and no doubt some people will buy us some as presents. I think I might even try to make do with the changing bag from boots for a little while as I can maybe get a nicer one as a present later on also my birthday is coming up next month so might ask for a few things (can you ask for a breast pump for your bday! lol - Jess - did you still want to sell yours?)

I really hope breastfeeding will work cause I could do with one thing going to plan and saving us money!!

 

[SBB]

Aw marg it's hard there's lots to consider... I know I'd miss Sammuel so much if he wasn't here! If Danny takes him out for 2 hours I miss him!

Yeh I'm not sure where the baby is hiding! That was afternoon, maybe I'll do an evening shot when I'm a bit more bloated!

[Euronova]

suz- are you getting anything ready for your little one?? I am so sure it's gonna be a girl i nearly wrote "for your little girl"

Oliver says he can feel that i am just in full blown nesting mode... but this said I was the same before we got the dog, then the cat, then even worse when we were waiting for the puppies lol

I love decorating... and shopping

 

[SBB]

V how wide is your window? I am selling blackout blinds next week but they might be a bit pricey!

Breastfeeding is only impossible for about 2-3% of women, so even if it isn't totally straightforward, if you get help you can overcome most things. Laleche league are brilliant and I'm sure there's a meet near you. Also you can always express so don't worry...

X x x

 

[SBB]

Well we're not decorating anything but I will sort out the nappies and clothes, that's about it though! Suppose I will do sort of hospital bag although I don't envisage going to hospital!

Apart from that I'm not sure what else I need to do?!

[babyloulou]

Hi girls

Suz- that's a very neat bump! I keep forgetting you're pregnant again

Marg- it must be so hard We're all here for you whatever you decide

Ben has got a full body rash now We're in at the docs at 4:50. Hopefully it's just a viral rash....

[Euronova]

Are you getting a double pram? I don't suppose you have much more to do as you have it all set up for Sammuel

Are you getting at least a midwife coming to your house or just doing it with OH? mine would NEVER cope!

 

[Euronova]

Poor Ben! he is really going through the war! I hope it's nothing serious! Keep us posted!

 

[TySonNMe]

Oh my poor Ben!! But look at him sleeping so peacefully...aww!

 

[SBB]

Poor Ben Sammuel had a rash when he had the blue lip viral thing...

No V will use the pushchair we have for S and I will always wear the new baby. I will prob wear them both at some points too! Sammuel on the back and new baby on the front!

X x x

 

[SBB]

Now I'm convinced we're having a girl (cheers V!) I'm worried about names... All we have is Willow, Ember, Piper.
I loved Ava last time round but it's really popular now and someone i know just called her baby that.

Boys I like Casper, Kit or Flynn. Prob Kit. F**king inlaws can't shorten that can they?!

X x x

 

[babyloulou]

Not unless they call him "K"

 

[SBB]

Lou I'd kill them... I'm so close anyway!!!

[TySonNMe]

I love the name Avalyn...if I had a girl I would name her Avalyn Elizabeth.

 

[SBB]

Avalyn is cute... xxx
