Due In May :)

[Hann12]

Yay for the mango Jary!
Thats annoying about the keys, kind of thing I'd do lol. Hope you get in soon!

I bought a tandem buggy last night - o baby zoom for £250 brand new! Only negatives I can find is that its long. I'll just have to get used to that!

 

[Jary]

Yep got the keys. Good thing too as I really needed the loo by the time I got them!

We've bought our pushchair/pram. The graco evo in lime. I wasn't sure about the lime colour at first but it started to grow on me and James liked it plus it's a summery colour got that and the car seat. May add the carry cot later but it's not necessary to have as the pushchair bit can be flattened to use from birth.

 

[Hann12]

Yeah just see how you get on, as they are summer babies you might find you don't need the carrycot - they are good to keep them snuggly on winters days. I am going to convert my cameleon back to a carrycot and get a platform for DD to ride along on for short journeys, then for longer ones we can use the tandem.

Congrats to everyone on their scans - so exciting...and making me so anxious - my scan is in 2 days. I can barely wait, I keep thinking about it and seeing lil dancing babies in my head....

I have changed my mind, I will be finding out the sex of the babies...I just so wanna know what additions will be added to the family. So hard to wait, I wanna call and ask them to move it forward.

 

[Jary]

Grr! My car still isn't fixed as the garage were waiting for a part from Peugeot. Work couldn't change my shifts so I'm having to borrow James' mums car instead. Such a faff!

Yay! We're mangoes Jary! Funny story about the keys. I locked mine in the car the other day. Pregnancy brain!!!

Hann - your scan will be here before you know it!

Math - congrats on your baby girl!

BDown - yay for finding out gender of the babies! I was a little disappointed when we decided to give into the kids and find out at Christmas, but now that I've accepted it... I can't wait for Christmas to come!!! There is an envelope hidden in our house somewhere with both the DVD of the scan and the results and I'm so glad hubs hid it from me as I'm sure that I would've had a peek by now. Can't wait for your scan!

Pink - how was it? What team are you on?

Gah! It's such an exciting time in all our pregnancies!

Afm, busy week with holiday programs and parties at the kids' schools. Hubs has his holiday party in a couple of weeks and I'm dreading finding a dress to wear as I've already put on 20 lbs. I'm hoping now that I'm weaning off the prednisone then my weight gain will slow down. Hopefully I can manage a 10-15 lb weight gain for the duration of this pregnancy and only gain 30-35 lbs which is still in the normal range as I had a normal BMI pre-pregnancy. It won't help that I'll be spending the next week baking delicious Christmas treats!

Happy Mango week to my buddies!

Good luck with the scans, can't wait to hear the good news!!

Yay for finding out baby's genders, I bet team yellow is HARD to go all the way thru with!

Went Christmas shopping for my cousins' little babies and kept finding myself buying Phillip Jr stuff lol I'm gonna have to take a picture of all the things we're bought so far, I'm totally addicted lol I can NOT wait to get his nursery ready. When are you ladies starting to do that? I don't wanna start too early, or too late either lol

 

[Jary]

I can't wait until we get the cot and baby blankets and things. As for the nursery, baby will be with us until we move into a house so we don't need to worry about decorating for a while.

I think my mum is more eager to buy baby things than me! She says she's bought some little knitted hats off a lady who sells them at a local hospital and donates all the money to Tiny Lives charity

Once I'm bigger I think I'll buy more baby stuff. Aiming to buy the Moses basket after Xmas.

Also, I've been feeling flutters and nudges throughout the day I'm certain it's baby!

 

[Hann12]

I'm getting the nursery furniture in the sales after Christmas. I'm also making a patchwork quilt (yellow and turquoise). I made one for Annabelle in pinks and blues too.
Might get some giraffe wall stickers for the nursery - neutral but cute!

 

[prolifer]

Hi all, had my scan today and had a boy's name all picked out and then I saw the scan and I saw the baby's lips - I said "Girl" and she said, "I think you're right" when she did the potty shot and guess what?

Say hello to our new little princess!

 

[shellgirl]

Congratulations on your new little princess Pro!

[Jary]

Big congrats girlies!!!

And wow Powell!!! Your bump is lovely!

Just about to go start work...baby is giving me some cheer up nudges. Was feeling them on the drive up too! Hope this is the start of lots of wriggles and kicks!

 

[Hann12]

Yay pro that's fab news! I bet you are relieved as I know you said it could be an issue with your DH if it was a boy. Hope he is going to be involved with this one.

Pink - congratulations on your little boy

Jary - yay for kicks! I'm getting loads this morning too. Have a nice day at work.

Anna - great bump, I'll take a pic of mine tomorrow - 20 weeks tomorrow yay!

 

[prolifer]

Yeah he is very happy now, even shared our scan picture on his FB page ^^

 

[BDownmommie]

Congrats everyone - boys and girls...so awesome.

I started taking a poll around my office to see what the sexes will be....I could barely sleep last night thinking about the scan, and it's not until tomorrow. This is too much - I am so looking forward to the answer....
