Morning girls!!

Sorry I haven't been about, i've been at my parents since boxing day and back at work today, boooo!!

I am STILL poorly, eurgh, but definitely on the mend and managed to sleep last night.

I'll catch up properly but just noticed something about itchy boobs cazz- I got terribly itchy boobs at about 13 weeks and then ended up with lovely purple stretchmarks underneath my boobs which won't go! argh! So get moisturizing!

 

[Sparkly]

Hi Ladies, it taken me ages to catch up with you all....and tbh I can't remember a lot of what I've read now!

Cazza and Cesca - baby oil for those itchy boobs and bellies, it worked a treat for me and I only got 2 little stretch marks on my tummy and they were in the last 2 weeks of my pregnancy, I used to apply it twice a day.

Dawny - I would suggest a graduated bob, longer at the front, I can't really tell but I think your hair is fine, so don't have layers cut into it, it will go too wispy and look bitty, you need a little height on top, not too much just lightly back-comb it they gently brush over, this is what I do with mine. Also I think you need a fringe, a side sweeping one would be best to break up your forehead. If you want to change the colour I would say caramel highlights would look good , maybe in the underneath layers, if you don't want the roots to be too obvious....that is my professional opinion

There seems to have been a few down days around here lately, I hope everyone is feeling a little brighter today.

Yogi - It is only natural for you to be nervous hun, but your betas are fantastic, like the others have said I'm sure your scan will be great x

I agree with Sparkly! Dawny a graduated bob is great for thinner hair (I had that cut awhile ago and it is good for fine hair - if that's what you have I think). I have had layers and they look good as well but only if you have longer hair (at least for me) otherwise it didn't suit me when I had shorter hair.

Here's a pic that I love...you could do it with or without the bangs.

You could do it even more dramatic with the short and long but this is a milder version of the graduated bob

I like the look of that hair style but I have quite thick hair so would it still work? xxxx

I believe it could! I have very thick hair and manage a short style!

 

[dawny690]

Is she famous I seem to recognise her from something/somewhere? xxxx

 

[grandbleu]

It's Nicole Richie...I have fine hair but a lot of it but it's still fine (not thick). I think it could work for thick hair too like Megg said.

I knew she looked a bit like Paris Hilton for a reason! I associate the 2 of them strongly! LOL Great haircut, but she just annoys me so much!

She used to annoy me but since she's had her two kids she's calmed down and stays out of the limelight and doesn't seem to seek attention like she did before...Paris just never stops (she definitely annoys me still!). In the end they are both just famous for being rich which is all a bit silly.

Is you hair straight or wavy??? A graduated bob is a good solution for either hair type but you need to do some investigating into how the graduation would be cut in. For instance a thin type of hair would need some blunt edging in order to create bulk and height while thick hair needs more of a elongated point cut to get some of the heaviness out and help with movement. Which is a tricky way to do it unless you see someone who has a lot of experience. OH I was a stylist for 10 years so I am not just talking out of my butt. haha

 

[Megg33k]

Listen to Virginia! She sounds smart! LOL

Liz - I didn't realize she'd had a 2nd kid! Jeez! I'm SO out of the loop!

Yep a girl and a boy now...I'm too into the loop but really only celebs with babies because I torture myself going on the celebrity baby sites to see who's preggo and who's having a kid...I'm really a masochist because all it does is make me jealous and sad. However there are a bunch of celebs who have also been really honest about M/Cs they've had and how painful it was emotionally...it's nice that some can be so open because a lot of people just don't talk about baby losses.

girls well I'm back from the scan with mixed emotions to be honest had to have an internal scan as she couldn't see enough withi the external there is a sac there but they couldn't see the baby yet so we have to go back in a weeks time for another scan. I know there was a good chance that we wouldn't see a hb but she didn't say anything about a yolk sac so now I'm scared that it's another mmc. I felt quite calm initially after the scan but now I've got home and got on google I've scared myself. They didn't give me much info just said my dates could be a bit behind and I'm only between 5 and 6 weeks so it could be to early. So we are now in another week wait. I am so scared. On a plus side some of my bloods are back and they were all normal. She did say if it is another miscarriage there are some other bloods they haven't done but she said we will see what happens next week. I don't know if she said that because of my history or if she thought it was another one surely if she was concerned she would of said something. I was a mess in there shaking like a leaf trying not to cry although I did there were two other women there all happy and smiley and I thought how lovely to have that pure joy I must of looked a right state.

 

[dawny690]

Oh Lucy I think its just early and when you go back in a week's time your bubba will be there showing its self to you xxxx

 

[prgirl_cesca]

Lucy it's still early days.

Did you get a good look at the screen? The yolk sac is quite bright and white so it makes the whole sac almost look glowing, when there is no yolk it's a bit dull. You may not have noticed either way though. I know some hospitals don't even bother mentioning the yolk sac to you.

 

[Dazed]

Amanda, I'm doing good chick! New car has my mind off of the suspected tww, but I'm still bding just incase I was wrong (and because hubby can't get enough ).
How are your spirits today? Good I hope.

 

[Dazed]

Lucy I'm sure everything is fine hun.

 

[LucyJ]

Cesca I didn't get a look at the screen she kept it tilted toward her and I was such a wreck I couldn't look at it kept my eyes on Steve occasionally looking at Dawn the scan lady's face Steve could see a bit but not much. She just said there's a sac and it is in the right place. Im hoping it's just early I guess we've been here before so it's scary and your mind goes for worst case scenario. Although in our first pregnancy we had an early scan and they couldn't see much but a week later we saw a heartbeat although we went on to loss our little one.

Going to try and not think about it and stay away from google.
