Darling buds of May and June bugs!

Awww Brandy, great bump! I'm sure mines shrinking lol xxx
 
Congratulations Megan! It's the year of the girl!

It's funny how it works like that, in the year I had Sonny everyone seemed to have a boy, and this year everyone seems to be having a girl!

Hope everyone is well xxxxx
 
I went to the Asda baby event last night and got some pretty good bargains. Got a complete moses basket for £25, a pile of Johnsons things for £1 each and a Gro Egg thermometer for baby's room for £15. Not sure if anyone's seen them but it's an egg that changes colour to tell you if the room is too hot, too cold or just right and saves you having to put the light on and disturb the baby. They're £22.50 in mothercare so it's not a bad deal!
 
I saw the moses baskets but not sure if my friends giving me hers yet so i didn't get one. They were nice though weren't they? Got a box of 92 nappies for £8 and some more sleepsuits and vests. I didn't see the eggs they must have sold out otherwise i'd have had one of those myself. XxX
 
There weren't many of them left in our asda either. Apparently you can order them online though and get them delivered to the store free of charge.

Yeah the Moses baskets are nice. We got given one from my SIL but it needed a new mattress and blanket which would have probably worked out more than £25 so we just got the new one.

Did you get girly sleepsuits? There was a lovely Minnie Mouse sleepsuit that I wanted but I'm still not entirely convinced that my baby is a girl so I'm scared to buy too much pink :)
 
I'll have another look in another asda first, there are a few close by. I saw the Minnie Mouse sleepsuit but didn't get it. Bought a starter pack with two sleepsuits, booties, hat, scratch mittens and vests which were in white. Other two packs I bought were girlie lol. Said to Mark i'm going to look a complete idiot if she turns out to be a boy but with all the scans i've got scheduled i'm sure we'll find out before she actually arrives :)

I'm in so much discomfort tonight, heartburn again and got such horrible feelings around my bump. I'm hoping to god its only wind but I'm slightly concerned.
 
I got Huggies size 2, 7-13lb. Carry cot sounds a complete bargain, well done! :)
 
Yeah it's the teddy one, we already had a stand so we set it up next to our bed the other night and I was getting all emotional looking at it and imagining my little baby in it :)

How are you feeling today Rose? Has the discomfort eased/gone? Hopefully she was just having a bit of a stretch out in there :) they do like to worry us don't they? I know what you mean about buying girly stuff, I've got no more chances now to confirm she's a girl so there's still a 15% chance she's going to be born a boy. I daren't fill in her baby record book or anything just in case!

That was a good deal on your carrycot Leanne, have you got much in now then? My SIL went out and bought us a nappy disposal thing and a changing mat yesterday so apart from the furniture set I think we've got almost everything now. Just need the nursery decorating so we can start putting everything in it's place.
 
Gorgeous bump brandy!!

Aw you're all getting so many lovely things!! It's just boring stuff I need like Moses basket mattress and bottles, have everything from my wee girl so don't need to get much. The major thing is a double pram.

Rose I hope you are feeling bette today, I'm sure it's just Isobelle getting big and running out of room.

You never know Nicola you might get a scan near the end and will be able to ask again then.

I have started feeling baby having the hiccups, I think he is going to be the same as my little girl, she always had the hiccups before she was born
 
Aw that's so cute, I'd love to feel her hiccuping :) what does it feel like?

I hope I do get another scan, although its not too much of a problem if she's a boy as we're doing the nursery quite neutral and the bath and everything are neutral so all we'd need would be some blue clothes.
 
Ooh just been to Tesco in my lunch break and got some baby monitors for £17 reduced from £35! I do love a bargain!
 
Thats amazing deal!! The supermarket baby and toddler events are so good!!

I bet you will feel hiccups soon. It starts off just feeling like a couple of kicks, but it carries on regularly for quite a while, feels almost like baby is jumping-so cute!! Can see kicks from the outside now too, my belly jumps, I love it!!
 
Suze and Nicola I am feeling much better today thanks. I'm not sure what it was but its gone now lol. Isobelle has decided to change her waking pattern and now s!eeps all day and kicks me all night. I forgive her though lol.

Talking of scans i've booked another 4d one, I know, i'm naughty lol. Its a two part one where you have first scan at 20-24 weeks and second one at 26-34 weeks. The idea is that you get to see the growth and changes. you get a dvd and a cdrom of pics plus some colour prints at each appointment. I've got my first one at 11.50 on Monday, Mark is off work on leave and its his birthday on Tuesday so the scan is part of his present. I tried to keep it a secret but I told he we were going somewhere on Monday and he asked if it was to do with Isobelle, I said well she'll be there, she goes everywhere with me but I'm obviously a crap liar as he guessed!

Feeling a bit guilty about spending all that money especially as I get a scan every month anyway now but its not like the hospital ones is it, its an experience.

Hope everyone is ok? :) xxx

I'm interested in the monitor too, have to get down to Tescos asap.

I'm sure i've seen a couple of kicks from the outside too, Mark said he thinks i'm imagining it and I should just enjoy being pregnant and stop trying to rush things?! I'm not really sure what thats supposed to mean. Its clearly 'bloke' talk/logic. He was driving at the time so probably wasn't even listening to me to be honest lol xxx
 
Rose I'm glad you are feeling better!! Hopefully Isobelle is getting her nights and days mixed up early and when she arrives it will be the right way round!! Your scan sounds amazing, what a lovely birthday present. I bet you will see a huge difference between the 2 scans. Ha ha I know men talk nonsense most of the time, words come out before they have time to think :haha:
 
Yes I hope she gets them the right way round by the time shes born lol. I'm really looking forward to the scan, just wish it was still a surprise and he hadn't guessed. I'll post some pics on here once i'm back, can't wait to see what she actually looks like! :happydance:
 
Aw it will still be amazing, I bet there will be a huge change since your last scan and your pics will be so detailed, I can't wait to see them :happydance:

Just realised i'll be 24 weeks next week, I can't believe it!! Totally confused about what day I go up a week by again though!! My 20 week scan was on a Wednesday and the sonographer looked up her chart and said I was exactly 20 weeks, which is what I thought I was!! Then at my midwife appoinment a couple of weeks ago, which was on a Monday, the midwife looked at her chart and said I was exactly 22 weeks that day!! I tried explaining that my due date falls on a Wednesday so I thought it was a Wednesday I always went up a week, but she said no her chart said a Monday :shrug: Sooo confused, I know it's only 2 days of a difference but it annoys me not knowing exactly!! I think I am just going to keep saying I go up on a Wednesday, so my ticker is right. I am thinking it might be because this year is a leap year so there is an extra day :shrug:
 
Its funny you should say that because i've got a two day discrepancy but that was due to the 12 week scan putting me back by two days, daft isn't it? I thought if it was only a couple of days at scan they kept your original date. Found a really old post of mine on here last night when i got a 2-3 on digi and that matched my original dates exactly. Tested as soon as i got a positive on frer and next day got 2-3 not 1-2. Anyway i'm rambling now, i still reckon i'm 22+5 not not 22+3 today. Not a problem, she'll turn up when shes ready wont she :) xxx
