Curvy ladies

[sunshine623]

Hi ladies! OMG I've been reading forever to catch up! lol Just don't have enough time to respond to everyone, though. Been a busy week with work and getting ready for vacation, so haven't been on much. We leave for the beach Saturday morning!!! Can't wait!

So I had my ultrasound today, and we've had a change of plans because the baby's a BOY!!! I'll have to post a pic later because I CANNOT believe the other lady couldn't see that he's OBVIOUSLY a boy! lol Nick's so proud, and I'm kinda relieved because I was dreading having to raise a teenage girl down the road. Guess I'll be taking back all the girl clothes I bought, though.

Plus I had hardly gained anything until this appointment, and I gained 6 lbs since last time!!! 6 lbs in 3 weeks! I'm gonna put on 50 lbs at this rate! But the nurse said it was good since I was finally gaining instead of losing, so I'll take it. Gonna have to try to do better next week on vacation, and that will be really hard.

ttc, welcome! I'm the same size, and you can look back at my bump pic from Sunday. It's somewhere around page 82 or 83 I think. Somewhere in the 80s anyway. Pretty easy to scroll through and just look for pics. Although, last Sunday, my bump was smaller so it may not be the best pic. You still can't really tell I'm pregnant, though. I'm hoping to pop in the next few weeks, and finally be obviously preggo!

The thing with pcos is it's a cluster of symptoms. So she might have no prob getting Preg but have loads of hair. Or skin tags. Or any number of lovely things. I needed help with ovulation but plenty dont and it's certainly not go straight to ivf

Up at stupid o clock again. Sigh. Dunno what to do with myself rly

Sunshine, i can't believe your girl is a BOY! Congrats though! At least you found out now though and not when the LO was born. I hope you haven't bought too much stuff. Can't wait to see a pic Enjoy your holiday down the beach, i am super jealous.

I was quite good yesterday, apart from the mars bar i had..woops. Think i am going to get some maternity jeans at lunch. Mine are getting a bit tight now.

Have a good day all. Xx

 

[Rees]

Jade, I'm envious of you only now needing maternity jeans! I've been in mine for a month before I got preggers again my jeans had started to fall off me, now they're far too tight and they cut in (and they're a size 20!) my size 18 maternity jeans keep falling down and I've already got holes in the waistband where I keep pulling them up

Rach - I hope you enjoy your weekend

TTC - welcome :waves: I don't have a b shaped belly, but started to show ridiculously early, whether or not it's my body reacting to me knowing I'm pregnant and changing my body shape or if it the baby already making me feel huge I don't know But then I look 4 months pregnant when I'm not actually pregnant and always have done

Amy, I can't believe you're having a boy! My brother's ex was told she was having a girl and was a wee bit surprised to give birth to a boy, so at least you do know now an can return stuff Have you got any names now for a boy? I can totally sympathise with not wanting a teenage daughter, I know exactly what I was like and am dreading when Tegan turns 13/14, I think this one is another girl, I'd prefer a boy as I have less to worry about, but 2 girls would be rather lovely, I always wanted a sister


I rang up about my next scan yesterday and said that I'd only be 18+4 as my date got changed at the dating scan, gave them my new due date and will now be having my scan at 19+4 on August 25th - a month exactly to my birthday! I so hope we can see what's in between the legs this time

I now have a lovely 3 day weekend and no idea what to do today, it's meant to be sunny but it's looking rather grey and rainy here, wanted to go to the park again, but we'll have to see what the weather does this afternoon, Luke did make a suggestion about a teddy bear's picnic but not in this weather!

Can't remember what else I've read, I now have a theme tune to "Big Barn Farm" stuck in my head and have forgotten everything

Hope you all have a good day and I hope it's not raining where you are! xx

hi all - just popped on for a quick catch up! I had my weekly mw appt today and they had a new doppler so asked if I minded if we listened to Beanie's heartbeat - as if!! It sounded like a galloping horse and was the most lovely sound! Nice and strong apparently! Got my anomoly scan on 11th Aug - still undecided as to find out the sex - DH really wants to know so will probaby end up saying ok as I am not against it that strongly! So pleased it's Friday!!! woop woop!

 

[cranberry987]

Hi hope you're having a nice Friday. It's belted down all day here and our Internet is down now so I think the exchange is flooded/shorted. Grr. On my phone ATM, so not too cut off

Got loads done today. Bought a new gas Fire, and just loads of little things. Washed my curtains and was worried they'd ruin as they're dry clean only but they're fine. On the line now under the carport

Knackered now tho after so much action. Might watch some er in bed and have a snoooooze

 

[ttcwithendo]

just reading that made me want a nap LOL have a great weekend ladies

 

[pink sparkle]

Hey ladies...im so worried now that im having a boy and not a girl, i hope that at 28 week growth scan they will double check for me! I brought a lovely outfit today from Next top and leggings with butterflies and a gorgeous knitted hat quite reasonably priced too. ive got the most awful heartburn need to get the gaviscon out of the car but have stripped off cos im having a hot flush and cba to get dressed again! x

 

[spellfairy]

I bought intelligender test worked last time to this time it dark murky green so Iam having at least one boy if frats and 2 if identical

 

[Rees]

What's the intelligender test and how does it work? I've seen a few other ladies who've done this and it always confuses me!

Helen - You did so much yesterday! I hope you're having a chill out day today! And that your net is back up and running

I'm sure she'll stay a girl the outfit sounds lush!

You'll have to buy a bottle of gaviscon for the house and the car in case you need to get it again and you're all nakee - or did you streak out to the car to get it??

Hi Rees well u pee into cup then syringe 5ml out and squirt into teste pop which has chemicals in it, u swirl in for 10 secs then leave on a flat surface for 5 mins. If ur yellow urine goes brighter or orange it's a girl. If it goes dark murky green or green, it's a boy. Mine was correct first time and I split the test and done it twice this time, dark straight away green.

 

[Rees]

Oooooh, where do you get them from? Over the internet?

 

[xheartsx]

Hi ladies, i hope you are all having a lovely weekend! Yesterday we went to our pals house for a catch up and a takeaway. Was fun! Today it has been boiiiiling so we went for a nice walk Now just chilling out watching t in the park. I have eaten so much crap this weekend! I Just ate a massive milkybar and half a tub of pringles..o00ops! Oh well, its the weekend

Hope you are all ok. xxx

 

[Rees]

Luke has gone out for a few drinks, got him to get me a bar of choccy, but I've not even touched it! Forgot it was there, been busy looking at baby names

I'm convinced this one is now a girl again! We like cornish names as that's where we live, where we were born and his surname is VERY cornish (Tresidder pronounced Tree-zid-der) so Tegan Louise goes quite nicely, but for this one we can only agree on a boys name (Jago Jon)

So far I like Elowen (El-o-wen) but can't remember what it means and I've literally just come off the site

 

[pink sparkle]

Hey ladies...i sufferred until dh went to the car for me! lazy i know!

intelligender test sounds like fun..ive heard its quite expensive ...not sure how true this is though.

Had a lovely day today its dhs bday tomorrow but as hes got a long drive on monday decided to have his family round for a bbq today to celebrate. Weather was gorgeous great food and i even treated myself to one alocoholic drink! I made it last me a couple of hours and enjoyed every sip!

So strange but the last couple of days i have kept the house immaculate. I have literally not sat down all day and was all cleared up before everyone left today...usually its gets so messy and i just leave it until the next day...maybe its nesting i hope that it isnt but that im finally being a bit house proud lol! Loving keeping things tidy. So tomorrow were off to sil's house for dinner...after i invited myself but it saves me going shopping for dinner tomorrow when were off on hols monday.

Heartburn not too bad today but now have the worst tooth ache! Im going to have a paracetamol and head to bed...so tired now and my poor feet are throbbing!

Hope your all good, Rees love the names...i love cornwall, weve holidayed there the last couple of years although this week were going to north devon. Love Jago for a boy do you have any other cornish girls names to share with us? x

 

[Rees]

Not got any more that I don't know someone called it

I know a Demelza (two actually) a Lowenna, Morwenna, Gwynn, Talwyn. And apparently Jena and Jennifer are actually cornish! (Who knew!) and I have a cousin called Lamara. My friends little girl is called Kaydy. There's so many different names that I don't like, for example, Merryn (boy or girls and I don't want a unisex name and it's Luke's cousin's name!) Mawgan, Trystan etc... mainly because I've had experiences with boys called that

Where abouts have you been to down here?? I do love living down here but things happen so slowly! (Went to uni in Plymouth which isn't far away but it's so bustling and busy compared to Penzance ) We went to Manchester last September for me and Tegs to finally meet Luke's grandparents and I loved it, but not really somewhere for young kids which is why we do love it here!

Your BBQ sounds lush hope you enjoy your meal at you SILs and enjoy your holiday hopefully you'll wake up and your tooth ache will go

 

[Rees]

Just found a fantastic site https://www.amethyst-night.com/names/

The funniest cornish name I saw was Zethar - cornish for seagull there is no way in hell I'd name my child after flying rats

Seen one for Rach - Esyld (ez-EELD) means she who is gazed at. Pretty but not one for me

 

[cranberry987]

Hiya

Lovely names. Plenty of time to choose one. And you even have 6w after the birth don't you to send the paperwork in? Can see what fits

Had a super busy day again yday. Have a friend coming from
Belgium on Thursday so sorting the back bedroom. Needed painting and curtains washing (they're dry clean only but i risked it and they're fine) just loads of little bits really

Back been a bit achey yday. I did pilates in the morning which was an evil
Medicine ball class again but only lvl1 so
I could do most things. Feel like my pelvis has started to tilt which is gonna happen with everything happening, but it pulls your back into an arch. I'm sure the ache will go
When I've got used to the new position. Was supposed to
Do race for life today but I only have £20 sponsorship
From dh and I think 5k even walking would be a bit much for
Me.

The plan today is to finish off back bedroom. Go and look at some lino for the study floor and do a big food shop. With as little standing up as possible :/

Have a good Sunday!

Rees thanks for the names going to have a look at that site when i get a chance.

Weve have mainly visited around Newquay, Perranporth have been to Hayle briefly! I would like to go further down, was thinking maybe Mullion or Looe next year. I visited crantock beach when we went in early may and im not one to get emotional at many things but the beach was stunning absolutely breathtaking and i had a tear in my eye. I would love to move down to Cornwall, must be such a wonderful place to bring up children x

Helen you are a busy bee! Hope you have a lovely time with your friend x
