Helen, that sounds amazing! I just told Pete my plan and hes freaked out and says theres no way were doing that with the placenta :( AHHHGHHGGGHGHH.

Han, Im in a foul mood now, its these forums, they piss me right off with all the stupid threads about bedding, cots, prams etc. I may have to go and calm down or Ill get annoyed with someone and end up ranting even more.

The kids are actually playing nicely together with Isbels doggies which Im rather pleased about, its very cute!

I think we have to plan for the best and expect the worst ( the mw can plan for the worst and expect the best) not being negative at all just saying in an ideal situation i think I'd prefer this. If things are different ie the pain is too much or whatever then I'll alter my plan. Also need to be prepared for things not to go to plan and accept that we need to be flexible. A birth plan is great tho as it's kinda the default position I guess.
 
Great birthplans Han and Helen, Helen defo shouldnt expect the worst to happen, i think that everyone should just be prepared for their plans to change and try not to be too upset if things do take a different course, but no real reason why that should happen! Optimisim all the way! I wont be doing a birth plan will probably scribble down a few things on my green notes closer to the date. I defo plan on staying at home as long as possible but if labour is the same as last two i will have to pop to hospital when waters have gone then they will send me back home until contractions are thick and fast. Will try and last longer this time though when ds waters broke at 10 by the time id sorted Dd and got to the hospital and back it was about 12pm and then contractions started lol. Just went to bed although i didnt sleep a wink. Then was back at hospital at 9am and was 5 cm. Would like to get there next time and be like 8 cm! lol x

Massive hugs to you Helen, really sorry your dh was so nasty and mean to you and hed better be grovelling today you just make sure you make him pay..i would.

DH and i had cross words this morning but only because we were both so tired..ds didnt sleep well at all and we literally had no sleep. We always end up laughing about our tiffs but neither of us are stubborn...luckily!

Sunshine your name choice is lovely and with such a lovely meaning and tribute to your grandfathers.

Im hoping that we will just hear a name one day and be like 'thats it'. Han what name are you prefering from your short list atm? Do they have nice meanings like your girls names did? x
 
Hi Jayne, Lol 8cm on arrival at the hospital! That would be fantastic!!!

About names, I really like Roscoe John Varela. Roscoe is a song by a band called Midlake. OH and I have always loved them and that was 'our song' for ages. We always said if we ever had boy we'd call him 'somthing more productive like Roscoe' (lyrics in song) and so to me I'd feel sad if we didn't call him Roscoe. Its silly. But Mark is worried about whether peeps will like it and also we don't particularly like the name Ross (sorry to anyone who is offended) and its likely to get abreviated. I keep calling him Baby Co for short tho, and we like that. I dunno. I also really like Leo, but other Spanish connections we feel are going a bit far, cos OH's surname is also very Spanish an we think it'll be a bit odd having a very Spanish name when we're hardly connected to Spain anyway.

On another note, I meant to ask before how is everyones weight going? I'm about 20lbs up now, with trying to control it a bit, but I'm still worried about further gain so trying to be good. Xxx
 
I like the name Roscoe, it does run the risk of being shortened to Ros, but with Megan some ppl tried to call her Meg and when they did i told them her name was Megan not Meg and if id wanted her to be called Meg id have left the 'an' off! lol. She now loves being called Megs! But shes old enough now to decide for herself although i will never call her Meg or Megs. The fact that Roscoe has such a great meaning in your relationship is really nice too so if i were you and Mark i would just think sod everyone else! xxx
 
If I went in at 8cms I'd be in trouble! :lol: not looking forward to being hooked up to a drip for 4 hours :(

I like Rosco :) my mum gave me and my brother short names so no one would shorten them, but family ended up lengthening them! I got called Leigh-Leigh and my brother became Scotty!

I'm on my phone again and so can't remember what I just read :) will def read your birth plan when I'm back on the laptop Han :)

Big :hugs: to everyone suffering with mean OH's

I'm still in pain :( but got a hot water bottle on my back and it's helping, I can see me going docs on Tuesday and getting signed off! Wonderful!
 
I'm 12lbs down since 4w. Seem to have stabalised now. I'm sure the weight will come on at some point tho.

Home now for a rest and a roast. Think I'll avoid the meat this week tho after being so ill last week ><
 
Helen, so sorry about your horrible night! Men can be such asses some times!

Sorcha, hello! I'm a size 20, and I still don't really look obviously pregnant. Hopefully my bump will look more like a pregnancy bump than a spare tire soon!

Rachel, I love the monkey suit! lol Thank you for the comments on Augustus! :)
Oh, and I love PS I Love You, too, but can't watch it right now with all my crazy hormones!

Leigh, thank you! Yes it's my name! :)

Hannah, I haven't been on the scales this week, and I dread it. I've not eaten too well this week while we've been on vacation, so I don't even want to know how much I gained. I'll have to do better this week, I guess.

We've had a hell of a morning already! Nick's sister called at 6 a.m. for us to pick her up because the police had her! Her friend was driving her in her car after they'd been out drinking all night. He had a warrant out for his arrest for not showing up for jury duty, so they arrested him and said they'd impound her car if she couldn't get someone to pick her up and drive her car back since she'd been drinking, too. So we had to jump up and drive 30 minutes to pick her up so Nick could drive her car back. I love her, but being out drinking still at 6 a.m. is ridiculous! Plus it was her night to have her son, so she just left him with her parents to go drinking all night. She's young, but she's gonna get in major trouble if she keeps doing stuff like that.
 
Sunshine :hugs: she sounds like an idiot! I would not have been impressed with a 6am call like that!

Helen - I hope you enjoy your meatless roast :)

I'm now in work and BORED :(
 
Hi everyone, Were having a marks n Spencer having a dine in for two:) yummy. Guess who gets the wine:(
 
Aggghhhh Han, Im with you on the 20lb. I keep thinking Ive only put on just over a stone but its 20lb when I work it out and thats BAD for me in my books. My hips have started playing up again because of it. I used to get bad hip pain when I was 2 stone heavier last year :( I just cant stop with the biscuits and crap though!

I normally to a roast on Sundays too Helen but today we had a fry up (which I normally grill), full on and yummy too. For tea, Ive had a chicken hot pot from the low fat range at Asda and some fruit.

Were having problems with Xander throwing tantrums and Im sick of it, he does it when he cant have his own way and is sent to the naughty step. I could smack his bottom but we dont do that in our house but he infuriates me with his temper and anger :( Not good.

Ive had to calm down the hubby tonight as Riley decided to decorate a wall in the living room with biro! Ooops ...my fault i wasnt watching him but was on the ikea website planning a kitchen lol! Hubby was so mad, hes not two yet though so didnt know it was wrong...he does now. Managed to get it off with wetwipes...they really are a godsend! We are planning on repainting anyway but no longer going to pay a decorator but just do it ourselves as that would be awful to pay someone then ds decorates again for us lol!

For dinner we had a bbq (indoors lol) ended up in the oven because of the awful weather. Piri piri chicken was yummy!
 
Hi ladies! Only just found this group so thought I would introduce myself! I'm Emma from Birmingham UK and pre pregnancy my BMI was 34 (ish) and I was a size 16... since having really bad MS in first/second tri, I lost a stone and a half! Then from about 20 weeks I've put on about 4 pounds so I'm still over a stone under my pre preg weight but my BMI is still 31/32. I'm just waiting to all of a sudden explode one day! :(

How is everyone? x x x
 
Hi banana, nice to meet you! FAB pic of your little baby :D

I've missed lots on here over the weekend, struggling to read everything and remember! I've had a lovely weekend with Dougie though. Just watched lots of films and chilled out. dreading work tomorrow!

I'm up about 14lbs at the moment, but i was really good last week, not much chocolate and 4 walks so i will be doing that this week too. Wasn't great on the weekend but if im good during the week it should even it out!

Dougie felt his first little kick this evening! I was laying on the sofa and baby was very active so i got him to push down on my belly and he felt a little one! He was dead happy.

4 more sleeps until my scan! woohoo!

Hope everyone is ok. I was reading through some 2nd tri posts.. things are getting a bit grumpy in there recently. It's boring me a bit!!

Xxxx
 
xheartsx - Aw thanks! It was my 28 week 4d scan... would definitely recommend having one!! xx

pink sparkle - Heyy! Where abouts in Brum are you from? xxx
 
Banana, hi there! That's awesome about keeping your weight down as far along as you are! :happydance: And I love your pic!

Jade, it's amazing that Dougie can already feel the kicks! I've only just started truly feeling them myself, so I'll bet it'll be a while before Nick's able to.

Went shopping for baby decorations this afternoon! :happydance: I'll post pics on our facebook page since I took them on my phone and can't seem to get those to post on here. We're doing Gus's room in dinosaurs. Think we're going to paint it a pale green color that's pretty but still kinda neutral. :)
 
Hello Girls,

I've got a day off work today, I'm liking these 3 day weekends! Back in for 3 days then off for 4!! Wooo hoooo.

Hello Bananabump! Fab name :) welcome over, oooh you'll be the first person in this thread to give birth - how exciting!!

Spellfairy, its not fair that we're not allowed wine is it! I've really missed it. I've had the odd glass but not much at all, generally stay away from it.

Jade, amazing that Dougie felt a kick, Mark can't feel anything, but I've never got him to press down on my belly, maybe I should try that!

Rachel i've been getting pins and needles in my hips from sleeping on my side, but apart from that they're ok.

I'm off to meet a lady called Claire off Netmums today! I'm a bit nervous, apparently there are a few ladies who meet in this cafe after Aquasize so I'm gonna join them. I hope theyt don't mind and I'm a little nervous about what sorts of ladies they are but hopefully they'll be nice. I'll let you know.

Rach, I was thinking, do you think it'd be nice to start a list on first page of our Curvy Ladies group, with group members, and whether they are having a girl/boy or team yellow. I've seen it done in other threads, you could put our due dates there too, so we can keep track on one another as we move further on! (it might be a hassle so don't worry if you can't be bothered, was just an idea)

Amy, I love the dinosaurs being on FB so cute.

Right i'm off now, *she says nervously*

Han Xxx
