Plastik in with you can't wait until 12 weeks and beginnings of a bump. Your not far off now - good luck for scan Wednesday! I don't get another until 12-14 weeks now unless I go private and I've decided if its 12 I'll wait if 14 I may have one between and pay... Howa your sickness? In really bad yuk!! Hoping it will get better over next few weeks!!

Hi Ladies!!

How is everyone doing?
Impet, stunning pics! Can't believe how far you are already!!
Nimbec, my sickness has just about gone away since Monday. Of course this had me a bit worried, but since my bbs were still sore and I'm exhausted, I tried to just chill about everything.
JustMe, how are you doing??! What did you decide about those courses that work were going to send you on?

Had my third scan this morning. Bean is measuring 10wks4days, which is bang on target. Heard the heartbeat again, nice and strong, and saw the cutest little arms and legs! Didn't get the best pics this time, but one good one at least Dr. tried to wake Bean up so we could see some movement, but poking at my tummy, but no luck. Of course this had me slightly worried, but he didn't seem worried at all and I'm just going to take it that Bean is a good sleeper, just like mom, and not panic about anything!!

Here's today's pic:

Yay plastik how exciting!! How amazing to see the difference between all the pics. I'm pleased your sickness has subsided - I've woken up today feeling good and as you say I had a minor wobble moment but in going to enjoy feeling well as tomorrow I may feel awful again!! I'm 9+3 today so it would be nice if sickness was on its way out.. Wishful thinking!

How's everyone feeling? Any news?

 

[justmeinlove]

Plastik, my sick had gone by the point you're at so def don't worry!
Def going on courses, was just wondering how hard work it might be

Short cos at work ;-)

 

[plastikpony]

Awesome sauce!! Glad I don't have to worry, it's great not feeling permanently nauseous for a while! I'll just sit back and enjoy

 

[plastikpony]

Hi ladies!!! How is everyone?

Yay, 11 weeks today and I have graduated to a lime!!! Just one more week and we hit that 12 week milestone!! Having my scan at 12+4, so hoping to get some nice scan pics

 

[justmeinlove]

[nimbec]

Plastik Whoo hoo a lime that's quite big! Good luck for scan they should be fabulous pics !

15 weeks for me, nearly 4 months! On down side I have a cold and hb is really ill again, we're starting to really worry about his job, he's been ill so much this year

How is everyone else? Don't suppose anyone is an expert in daily repeated fainting are they?

 

[iow_bird]

justme: have you had your bp checked??? Hope you're ok. xx

As for me: we have our anatomy scan on Wednesday so we get to confirm if wee shrimpy is a boy Getting lots and lots of movement now!! And sorted through all DD's old baby clothes today!! So exciting!

 

[justmeinlove]

Hb is the one fainting I'd prefer it if it Was me tbh :-/

 

[plastikpony]

Hi ladies!!

JustMe, I hope your hubby gets better! Must be so worrying and that's not what u need right now

Iow, I also have a sack on Wednesday! : happydance:

Nimbec, how are u coping love?

AFM, 12wks 2 days! Can't believe I finally made it! Now just for the scan on Wednesday and we can shout it from the rooftops!! In other news, I have NO appetite. I eat because it's meal time, not because I feel like anything. I'm off meat completely and mostly eating toast and Bovril. I haven't picked up any weight yet (which I'm not complaining about since I started off 4kg heavier than I usually am).

 

[justmeinlove]

12 weeks! Yay! so pleased for you looking forward to seeing scan pics too! Hugs re no appetite, if you want veggie meal ideas I'm absolutely available!

Re hb, it really is just so worrying and I suspect why I'm still not excited. Sadly, despite having a definite small bump, my easiest days are the ones where I forget I'm pregnant :-/ will talk it through with my midwife on Friday I think, weirdly it will be my 16 week appt.

Big hugs again for 12 weeks! Did u say when your scan was?

 

[justmeinlove]

Oh and I'm not sure I've gained weight yet either! Not acc to the Wii fit! Lol. Don't mind actually as I am eating and also was the high end of normal BMI to start off with.

 

[justmeinlove]

Oh wow.
So very very wow.
Hb has salmonella.
ONE WEEK after he managed to ditch the effects of catching cryptosporosis from somewhere.
Honestly, I swear, if someone is sending us this bad karma, I am going to HUNT THEM DOWN.

Well hopefully his work will be less angry about all his time off ill when it turns out to all be food poisoning (although £500 pcm for another month will suck it's better than him not working there) and I am going to go phone NHS Direct now and ask if I need to worry

F*king Hunt Them Down...I swear!

 

[plastikpony]

Holy COW JustMe, I don't believe the bad luck you guys have been having!!! At least now they know what's wrong with your hubby they'll be able to treat it and he can get better and healthy soon!

16 weeks! How crazy!!! Are you going to find out about the gender? I know you said you didn't want gender specific clothes, right? I don't think I have the willpower to not find out, but I really REALLY want to know!! Of course I'll have to wait a few more weeks!

My scan is tomorrow morning early!! I wish I could just go to sleep until then. This day is totally dragging!!!

 

[nimbec]

Omg Justneinlove what horrid luck you're having (((hugs))) to you both!! At least they can sort it now knowing what it is.

Plastik wow can't believe you are 12 weeks already well half way through 12!! Eek please post a piccy after your scan!

I am feeling a bit better today thank goodness! My sickness has been awful. Holding I stay well today as Cooke good oh father and wife tonight (I'm no Jamie Oliver lol). I have 2 scans next week my nhs one on Wednesday but they don't do NT test so had to book a private one as well so having that Monday - I get to see my bean twice in one week

I def want to know the sex I'm far too impatient to wait!!!
How's everyone feeling?

 

[plastikpony]

Glad you feeling better Nimbec!! I'll most definately post a pic of the little Bean! I honestly can't believe it! It feels like I've been waiting for ages to get here, and now I won't believe it until I've had the scan

I must say that my sickness has been much better, and looking back it got better when I started going to Preggi Bellies! It's this great exercise group exclusively for preggi ladies, and the person who takes the class is a trained professional so they know exactly what you can and can't do! I've been going twice a week and honestly I feel great. My nausea is much better and my energy levels are up (I've been going for 3 weeks now). I totally recommend exercise! Whats great about this too is that because its' focused on pregnant ladies, they do a lot of core and pelvic floor strengthening exercises, and apparently this really helps with delivery and also helps your body 'bounce back' more quickly after the birth!!

What are you cooking? Awesome that you get to see your little one twice in one week!!

 

[justmeinlove]

Thanks everyone I know, it's ridiculous and I really hope things start to improve now. Am so tempted to investigate how to get compensation once they find where it's from, as we're losing So much money on this too meaning that so far we're putting back the legal bit of our wedding! Nct classes, driving lessons for hb, all sorts. Nightmare! :-/ oh and Anything for the baby! :O

Hugs to you all, glad it's going well for you guys!!! Am def keen to start exercise classes once we can scrape a bit of money together ;-)

 

[justmeinlove]

Oh, re gender, we might find out, we just won't tell anyone
