Lovely pic sammi and welcome over!!

C im the same, i sruggle every day on what to eat and cook but managed to make and eat shepphards pie tonight with peas and carrots, it was delish! As long as you are eating something it doesnt matter too much what it is, as with the grease/fat thing thats good as you wont put on much weight! With ds i loved pizza, burgers, bacon sarnies- everyhting lol! And gained 3 and a half stone!

 

[cho]

i still have not decided what to eat, i had some soup at lunch, i will have something but i dont know what yet.
I hope i dont put on loads withn this one i gained 4 stone with ds.
I have lost 9lbs with this one without any ms soo shows how much i have gone of crap lol x

 

[Kerrieann]

Haha! Ive lost 7lb's but know it wont stay thatway for long lol but think coz i know from the 1st time i wont let myself put on that much again!!

 

[cho]

hows your bump kerri, mines def not as big as i thought it would be thankfully.
i showed really early with ds and expected then to be massive with this one.
Im hardly small either though lol!!!

 

[Kerrieann]

Im fairly big, alot of it is still bloat but have a nice bump in the morns when i get up now too! Its just in the evening i look around 5 months pregnant!! I didnt show till late with ds i was very slim tho so think thst might have been why?!

 

[xkirstyx]

OMG I only posted on here last night, and you have moved forward 6 pages lol.

I want a gender scan now too!!! DH said we can go for one next weekend, but I wanted to wait until the 20 week NHS scan, as if I am not happy with that I will book a private anomoly scan anyway......or if they cant tell gender at 20 week scan due to position etc - I was going to have a private one anyway. Babybond are only charging £59 for the gender scan if you have the NT scan with them.....well thats what our sonographer told us

....question is.....can i wait 4 weeks? hmmmmm ......I am convinced its going to be a girl but DH is hoping its a boy lol

Evening girls....

We took our Boys to Chessington theme park today, had a lovely day & I was really pleased that I didnt get tired out, but I was getting lots of 'tightenings' anyone else get this?....

Busy ladies! I can't remember who had the green cm now, that was pages ago, but I was wondering if you guys had a health line that you can call in the UK? We have Healthlinks here in Canada where you can call and speak to a nurse about things like that. They're always able to tell you if it's normal or if it's worth going to the doc.

A couple of days ago, I couldn't believe that people were out shopping for prams/strollers already, but just yesterday I found the stroller of my dreams! Who knew it could be so exciting! Now all I have to do is convince DH that we NEED it.

Moved up a box!!! This ticker-thing sure is random...

Everyone meet pebble:

Not a very good picture as just as I was about to walk out the door to go to my scan I brought up the water I'd drunk and pebble didnt want to play ball.

My dates havent changed, Im still due 17th Dec.
Pebble had a heart rate of 162 which according to old wives tales suggests a girl (goes with my gut feeling when I first found out!)
Had a risk factor of 1 in 4269 which is almost triple the background risk.

great pic though sammi glad all is well with pebble! What's that test you had? Didn't do anything like that at mine which I'm surprised at given that my aunt has severe downs which I'd put in my notes x

 

[nikki-lou25]

Oooh my maternity jeans arrived, cant believe they were delivered after 9pm though.

WOW they are comfy!!!!

 

[ducky1502]

Are they the littlewoods ones nikki? I was going to order some! Dunno y I didn't lol. Lovely scan pic sammi glad pebble is healthy.

 

[nikki-lou25]

Yeah but didnt realise they're all 33" leg Mum in Laws gonna take them up for me lol. Can't complain for 7.99 tho

 

[lozzy21]

[nikki-lou25]

when I had my blood taken at my booking in appointment one
of the virals was to test for downs as apparantly they can detect small traces of it in your blood. She did explain how at the time but I can't remember the precise wording she used. So they then combined that blood test with the measurement taken today.

aaaargh... i'm about to explode! OH (or maybe FOB soon!?) called me at 4:37 PM, telling me he may need a ride, as his ignition won't turn. i gotta be at work at 6:00 PM, all my work clothes still in the dryer, i had just ordered a pizza for delivery and as he's 30 minutes away in normal traffic (down in miami) from the apartment and 45min from my work and it's rush hour right now, i told him it is impossible for me to drive down and get him. i can't be late to work and can't risk this job! (...come on, i'm pregnant! nobody is gonna hire me right now and who the f*** (SORRYY!!!) is gonna pay my bills? certainly not him in his financial situation...)

anyways, he hung up on me, right after i told him, i won't be able to come. than sending me mean messages as i'm trying to explain to him why. my employer just fired somebody last week for being super late and a couple of weeks ago, as i was on my way to work and he called that he needed a jump start, i turned right back around, helping him, making me 20min late. so it's not like, i'm not wanting to help him. i simply can't today and i'm sure if he would think a little harder, he would find another way to get home.

grrrrr.... i wonder if that's a monday problem with him!? two weeks ago monday we had a major scenario which has still not been resolved. we kinda took a break from there and he's been sleeping on the couch since then. told him back then to come up with a plan of how he thinks, he wants to be able to be there for me and LO, because with the financial situation he is in right now, i'm better off by myself and i made that clear to him.

AAAAAAAAH! sorry for the rant, but this is getting quite tough on me. can't talk to my parents or friends in germany about it and down here in SoFlo i only have one real friend and i hardly see her due to mine and her work schedules.

why do men always have to be soooo difficult???
