[1sttimemom08]

Misznessa, I'll be your text (or facebook!) buddy, as I don't have one either (hadn't really thought about it before!)... Plus, we are only a couple days apart

I'll message you on FB with my number

 

[sleepen]

good morning ladies, hope everyone is well today.

spoke with my doctor about what the scan tech had said. now i need to go for a growth scan to make sure bubs is growing normally. because at first scan he measured small at second he was measuring big. i also need to go for a fetal echocardiograph to checkhis heart because there was a shadow next to one of his heart valves when they tried to do the scan. the doc said it is probably just part of the muscle that controls the valve, and not to worry. so much easier to say then do.

hope everryone has a good day

 

[evewidow]

im sure it will all be ok sleepen , at least they are doing through checks
sailor_venus, gald you have been enjoying your shopping lol
im in a mood today , no reason for it , hormones i expect ! so i have took my anger out on an absolutley massive complaing email to asda so i feel a little bit better .i am also feeling a bit more organised baby wise , still need to clean out the nursery and rebuild the cot but i think we have all the major items covered now (had most already from my son ) got cot , moses , pushchair , car seat , carrycot , steriliser and a couple of bottles (hopefully wont need them as planning on breast feeding again but best to have a couple in case ) i have so far 11 reuseable nappies - waiting for hip grant to get the rest , got a few clothes but not many , could do with a snow suit or coat and some new bedding but thats about it i think for now , now i just need to get it all into the nursery and oput of the endless stash of carrier bags i have lol !

very prepared evewidow! what resusable nappies are you using? i'm selling a few soon as i prefer sposies unforunately as much as i wanted to use cloth. i have bumgeniuses and blueberries, weenotions etc

i've also bought some bottles and a steriliser even though i want to bf. i have very little glandular tissue in my breasts so with my son produced basically no milk and ended up formula feeding. this time i know in advance of the problem so am seeing a breastfeeding consult to discuss my options to give me some sort of supply... but will probably end up expressing / mixed feeding etc

i've got moses basket, stand, sheets, etc
lots of newborn and 0-3 clothes and well as bigger clothes from my son

need to get a sling just for times when i cba to use a pram

and a carseat as we got rid of our sons

already got bouncy chair, lots of toys etc

hmmmm can't think what else i may need to buy

Hi ladies has anyone had cramping at this stage? I'm a bit worried it's kind of at the right side and a little in my back! Bubs is still moving alot but I haven't felt like this before?

 

[rachael872211]

Are slings easier to use than carriers? I had a carrier with Eve but I hardly used it because it hurt my back.......I was going to just get one with more support this time, but also wondered about slings?

AvaGrace, yesterday I had cramping/stretching all down my left hand side and into my groin. I was quite worried, and couldnt really stand up straight. Then felt baby moving about and the pain went. I think he might have just been laying funny as I havent felt it since. It was like it all morning though.

Has anybody been getting backache further up? I was wondering if it was because of my boobs getting bigger.

I have been foraging (not sure if spelt right) with my dad today, for chestnuts! We are now going to roast them on the fire. Yum

I got lots of Xmas shopping done today too. Now my cupboard is packed full of baby stuff and Christmas presents :-S I'm slightly concerned though, as I got lots of stuff from Argos and asked for a Xmas gift reciept but they couldnt do it as they didnt have the option on the till. So I don't know wether to just leave the stuff and risk it, or get everything out of the boxes and test them..........I really don't wanna go opening them all though x

 

[evewidow]

argos will have stuff back without a receipt but they give you a git card not a refund , well thats what they do with me when i take duplicate kids presents etc back

 

[rachael872211]

Oh so say after xmas something doesnt work I can just take it back and say I lost the receipt? I would prob want an exchange anyway......and it has their catalogue numbers on the box too. yay! Thank you......I will leave the presents in peace. x

 

[misznessa]
