Due Sept 2017

[MrsKChicago]

The headaches have been on and off here the past week. I napped when Teddy napped yesterday because I suspected I was just exhausted and it helped. I really need a good sleep day but DH is sick so he can't really watch Teddy for extended periods. He's on the mend so maybe I'll get to sleep in on his Thursday off.

I bought a baby name book at the thrift store and I was flipping through it and the previous owners had highlighted our fairly uncommon first name choice. I thought that was quite a fun coincidence. DH and I still can't agree on a middle name, but he did say that if we don't find something, I get final say since I'm the one going through the pregnancy and birth. I'll still try to find something we both love, but it's reassuring to have a plan B.

Mrsk my sister would say that is a sign that your name of choice is meant to be

 

[MrsKChicago]

That's what I'm thinking, too! It wasn't the only name they highlighted, but they didn't pick out a million of them, either.

Erm Layla Grace for a girl was decided but Lilia, Scarlett and Ruby were all in the running too. Yea definitely have a bump here

I was told from my scan last week that there is a 95% chance this baby is a boy and I hope they're right because I'm having a hard time thinking of a girl name lol. I've used up all my girl names with my last two. I like uncommon names so they aren't one of say 5 or 6 girls with that name in their class but I don't want it to be so out there that it isn't a real person name, if that makes sense.

What a cute belly, babybump!

[Savasanna]

boy?

 

[bumbleberry]

I'm guessing girl too!

Another one here with the headaches, I'm going try that 4head thing Babybump as I've had loads recently and don't like taking paracetamol all the time.

Afm I have my first obstetric consultant appointment tomorrow morning. Not sure what to expect to be honest. Hopefully they'll tell me I can stop taking metformin now!

 

[kittykat7210]

It's textbook girl apparently, not a penis in sight !! We've decided to call her Evelyn Rose!!

 

[lilmisscaviar]

[gingmg]

[rockstarlove9]

Doctors appt yesterday went great... We'll find out what it is on may 9th... im just praying it comes by fast

 

[Savasanna]

May 9th?! Oy - your doctor makes you WAIT!

 

[peach81]

May 9th?! Oy - your doctor makes you WAIT!

Mine is making me wait until May 16th.

 

[rockstarlove9]

May 9th?! Oy - your doctor makes you WAIT!

Yeah he makes me wait six weeks between appts and they won't do the anatomy scan here until 22 weeks

 

[lilmisscaviar]

That's crazy Rockstar! My doctor doesn't let me go more than 4 weeks between appointments. If I do they're calling ME reminding me that I need to come in... as if I could forget I'm pregnant

I haven't scheduled an anatomy scan yet but I'm assuming it'll probably be around the end of April, early May as well.
