February 2013 Love Bugs

[gflady]

I'm quite relieved we're having a boy. For some reason I think they're easier to manage, and I'm more familiar with looking after boys. Husband wants to get him circumcised though and I'm not too sure about it. Anyone have any ideas?

Lots of new banana's! I'll be 23 weeks tomorrow One more week till V day!

 

[gflady]

Happy 21 weeks ladies

im thinking of getting hubby to all up to book antenatal and hospital tours for me this week or do you think its a bit too early?
i just want to be ready for everything in panic, hormonal mess atm

I'm not sure. Our NCT antenatal classes start beginning of December for just one month and they seem too early since my due date isn't until feb 19th. I have no idea about timings. I guess it's an individual thing?

 

[gflady]

Oh yeah, I didn't clock that now the baby's a banana!

Oops, gotta run - on a late shift today! xxxx

I don't think babies should be circumcised unless it's needed, though I'm a surgical urology nurse, and see a lot of young men come in for circumcisions (and older men!) because they encounter problems later on down the line. But then, it means that they make that decision themselves.

Also, thebump.com tickers are wrong - week 20 is banana, and 21 is a pomegranate! Check out the actual website instead of the tickers. https://pregnant.thebump.com/pregnancy-week-by-week/21-weeks-pregnant.aspx

Its more than likely my boys will have to be circumcised at some point but we're seeing how it goes. On both my side and their Dads we have a history of very tight foreskin which in turn has to lead to circumcision, their Dad had one at 22

A practical reason.

yep im suffering terrible heartburn it always hits at night. wat is it they say to drink to help?

alot of people say boys r easier i wud say they kind of are untill they hit 5 then there bloody hard work. my 6 year old son has got such a huge chip on his shoulder rite now he is being naughty and just doesnt listen and do as he is told. my DD has been a hard child since birth she is very bossy but she takes after her grandma who is my exes mum even my xes mum admits ellie is just like her a rite bossy boots lol. but at the same time she can b the sweetest child ever. lilly will have the same dad as jj and my husband to b is very quiet and calm jj is quiet and calm so im hoping lilly will b the same, all i will say is i think girls r better sleepers my DD went through the nite at 8 weeks where as the 2 boys still wake in night now and both didnt go through the night till 5 months. think boys must b more hungry than girls lol

i have a friend who has 3 children 2 girls and a boy and she says her girls r much easier than her 9 year old son i must admit tho he is really gobby we walk home with them from school he drives his mum mad she said she wud have a hundred girls rather than a boy lol.

but then my little boy jj who is 20 months old is the most sweetest little thing ever he just sits and plays with his cars bless him. he makes me melt.

i just feel so lucky that im having a girl this time i cant wait to start buying all the cute little dresses and lots of pink things its so exciting. i was a very good quiet child so im hoping my lilly will b the same. shes gonna b so lucky having a big sister and her 2 big brothers looking after her

My little girl was hard work for the first year and until she could really walk and communicate effectively really!

I am hoping her sister is a bit more chilled

My son was the easiest little baby, my daughter on the other hand quite a handful! Toddlerhood on the other hand has been so much harder with my son and was a breeze with my daughter. I can talk sense into my little girl but my son just doesn't listen Men

hahaha i agree men lol. i think cuz i had my DD so young and she was my first and she had really bad colic and wud just scream from 4 till 7 i really found that hard but wen she hit 4 weeks old i found her reeally easy and she was a great todler so funny and cute.

my sons had colic to but i think where i was that bit older and i had already done it with DD i handled it better and new wat i cud do to help. im gonna b 33 wen this baby comes i was only 23 wen i had my DD so it kinda feels like i got a second chance with a girl. sadly i cant buy nothing yet because i was told if i have baba at 24 weeks she wud only have a 10% chance its because of all my meds. im having the steroid jabs at 27 28 weeks so i really i just wanna b about 30 weeks now just so i can relax a little more and know if she is born she has a bettter chance with those steroids. i will buy stuff prob wen i hit 30 weeks just hope it comes round fast dont wanna lose her

My son was easy baby and very content. As a toddler I found boys harder and into EVERYTHING. My daughter has never had a tantrum but now she is 6 boy does she have an attitude!
