Got some really bad news...

My husbands grandfather just passed away tonight.

He's been fighting cancer for 2 years. It turned into stage 4 cancer, which sent his organs into failure. He was such a good man. Always fun to be around and a well rounded guy.

Its been such an exhausting day.

So sorry. X

I really like Emily and Elizabeth as well. They are on our short list. X

sorry to hear about your loss

How are you all today? I went to bed early last night, sent OH out to find a hot water bottle for my back and he made me hot choc so I went to bed! He also made dinner! I took the kiddies to school today and then just went for a drive over the forest. Love where I live- it just looks gorgeous in autumn.

Hungry now!

[mrsswaffer]

I've woken up and have been sick this morning, after 3 full vomit-free weeks. Then, DH had to be sick too. It makes me feel better that it may not be morning sickness, but worried that it's a bug. Boo!

 

[embo216]

oh no Does sound like something more sinister if you DH was sick too. I got sick this morning which was horrible, never did I expect to still be getting sick at this stage!

I'm 20 weeks today I can't believe I'm half way through!

whens everyone going to start buying for baby ?
im not sure when too

 

[RebeccaG]

I think you're right if you go in with an open mind about feeding it's much better. I was so desperate for bf to work - everyone around me bf their babies, all my family bf etc etc blah blah so I felt like it was the thing to do and then when I couldn't I felt like such a failure.

^^^ absolutely agree. I had my heart set on BF'ing, and when the milk didn't come in, I was sooo bullheaded in trying everything to make it come in, continually getting my hopes up and dashed again, and I was devastated the whole time and it made the first several months with baby completely terrible, emotionally.

This time around, if it happens, great, if not, well, baby needs to grow, so that's what's more important. I feel like I missed out on my son's newborn phase b/c of all the stress and effort wasted on something that wasn't meant to be, so this time, I'm giving it a few days, period.

hi! I am due in Feb 2013 too! But I am really confused because, both the doctors i visited predicted 1st Feb! But my 1st ultrasonogram said 14th Feb! And when my last ultrasonogram 4m lat week said 2nd feb!

Welcome! That's crazy! Which date would you like to be on for the first page of this thread, though?

We have names picked Lucas for a boy and Sophie for a girl.

Like them both!

Yep me too! I'm going to give bf another go as some say it is completely different with their second and bf no problem. Will give it a good few days and then if it is still not working then will switch over.

I have brought: loads of babygrows and vests
bottle warmer
swaddle blanket
sleeping bag

I am getting cot and changing unit from sis next month and I wont be buying anymore big items till November time I expect. Need to save!

 

[future hopes]

hello everyone sorry ive not been on here for a few days, not been feeling great got a cold and my back has really started to hurt alot now
however on a brighter note ive finaly started to feel babyit kinda feels like bubble poping but sometimes i feel really light kicks its soooo cute i cant wait to start feeling it all the time

wow embo 20 weeks already ure half way there congrats

fruitymeli hay hun im not sure wen im gonna start buying we do have a new buggaboo for the baby we got it 2nd hand and for a bargain there £850 in mothercare but we got ours and all the bits including maxi cosey car seat for £370 which i know is still expensive but ive wanted one for ages. ive used with our 19 month old son as i didnt want it being bad luck getting it so early so ive used it with him for a few weeks now, but my OH has made me put it away for baby now but im hoping where ive used it i wont get no bad luck

i wont be buying anything else now till im about 30 weeks as my pregnancy is so complicated and high risk i dont really wanna buy stuff untill i know for sure baby can be born and survive. i norm start buying around 24 weeks but ive been told my baby will only have 10% chance of survival if bourn then. i have the steroid jabs at 28 weeks to mature babys lungs so maybe ill start buying after that.

hope all u lovely ladies r well

[RebeccaG]

Not been on for a few days and missed loads!!

Sorry for your loss hun xx

We have loads of boy things from my son. Need to buy a new cotbed though so that my son will move in to that and new baby will have the other one that is part of the nursery set.

We bought 1 big thing each trimester I think last time so not such a huge spend all at once.

Always ask about the display models for travel systems push chairs etc. We got an amazing discount by having the store model and it was absolutely perfect condition.
