Glad you've found a new place, it sounds lovely!

Lil- congratulations!! Lots of sticky dust xx

[milosmum]

Shellney - congratulations on team pink and so pleased evrything was fine for little Bo!

Sparkle - also great news for your scan results you must be so relieved so have seen the heartbeat x

Lil - congratulations on your BFP and your great blood results x

IMP - hope you DH feels a bit better and heals up soon x

Grand - great news on your scan and your new home - it sounds lovely!

Amber - I adore your nursery choices x I am so useless at making decisions right now my poor baby will probably end up with plain white walls and sleeping in a cardboard box!

Angela - another great scan and I am so pleased you are on tem yellow too!

Chilli - thanks for the pram advice, all opinions gratefully received I need all the help I can get!

AFM - squiggle is gettng more and more active - beating me up at work today but it still makes me smile at the moment which is lovely x Trying to avaoid such hectic hours but i have aught up n my sleep now and I am looking forwards to a more peaceful weeknd xxx

Love to everyone I have forgotten xxx

 

[Chilli]

Great news about those numbers Lilirojo!

Sparkle - it's so good tohear your news - I went into labour with my daughter on Valentines night so perhaps you will too.

Amber - your nursery is going to be fantastic! My LO will go into big sisters current bedroom which is pink and white (and does have a small chandelier!!??) but it'll be in with us to begin with so if it does turn out to be a boy we'll have to quickly whip out the paintbrushes. Other than that it'll be mostly hand me downs... but it's so much fun getting everything ready isn't it?

IMP - ouch! Hope he's feeling better soon!

Angela - I am also a teacher - roll on August! ARe you striking? I only work the first half of the week so can't really and the rest of the teachers in my school are a bit woosy so none of them are!

 

[lilrojo]

well getting ready to head out and get my second set of levels done.. fxed they have doubled..

 

[Amberyll23]

Good luck Lil!! Keeping fx'd for you!!

milos--glad you have caught up on your sleep, especially with little squiggle keeping you on your toes!

chilli--thanks, it is exciting getting the room ready--I just have so much pink that now I am worried--what if they were wrong and Grace is a boy? Oh my! But you are right, it is just paint and can easily be changed!

Neffie--Good luck with your scan today, hope all is well with little Coco!

Morticia--Good luck with your scan tomorrow hun!

 

[Morticia]

Thanks so much for remembering! I've been keeping a low profile until I know for sure tomorrow everything is ok...will defo keep you all posted.
Love and hugs xx

Hi Everyone

Chilli - How's it going? How is OH reacting to your friskiness?

Bean - Good luck for your upcoming scan! Glad to hear that the m/s is getting better.

Amber - How cute is your nursery going to look! Great choice! Not too long now until your next scan. I'm sure you can't wait.

Angela - Hope things settle down at work soon. Great news on your scan! Talk to you soon.

Lil - Hope all goes well at your appointment today, and your numbers have more than doubled.

Sparkle - Congrats on the great scan! oooh, a V-Day baby....how romantic!

Imp - Sorry to hear about that OH. Hope he feels better soon. And good luck on your upcoming scan! That's great that he will be able to join you.

Bean - Great to hear that Squiggle is doing well. Hope your schedule eases up a bit, so you can get in some R&R.

Morticia - Good luck on your scan tomorrow!

:wave: to everyone else.

We're back from our scan....

Spoiler

Coco was very much there, and is doing great! (knock on wood!) We even got to see him/her move his/her little arms & legs around. It was amazing!!! I know with pregnancy, you're never quite out of the woods until you're holding your LO in your arms, but it's a huge relief
to see the progress with each passing scan. Looks like Coco has caught up from the last scan. I'm now only 3 days behind my LMP date, so they're not changing my original EDD.

Here are some photos. The last one is when Coco was moving his/her arms & legs around. We take it that he/she was waving at us.

Our 12 week scan is on July 15....roll on the next couple of weeks! Grand, can you please update the front page when you have a chance? Thanks.

 

[lilrojo]

My levels are great!!! More than doubled to 208! So everything is going as it should.. have a us in 2 weeks.. cant believe its finally happened.. everything has gone the way it should.. It feels so good.. Start my progesterone suppositories tonight, yay lol..

So I am officially back.. Will update with a edd.. at my scan.. calling later to make an appt will update with that date too..

 

[Amberyll23]

Lil-- oh hun, I am over the moon for you! that is so wonderful! I can't wait for your scan either and to see the pics you will have of your little one!!

Neffie--Coco looks GREAT!!! Those scans are so nice and detailed!! And I love how Coco was waving at you, "Hi mommy and daddy! Here I am!!".

Such wonderful news today!!!

 

[lilrojo]

Grand-update scan scheduled on July 12th.. and I will be almost 7 weeks.. one day away..

 

[grandbleu]

Hey Chiquitas - Will update later tonight but have to get the keys to our new place!

Neffie - Coco is soooooo cute!

Lil - Excellent news on doubling!

 

[Chilli]

lili- that's great news - congrats

Neffie - the friskness has faded a bit so he's off the hook and my dodgey hip isn't helping - sound like I'm 90! already said on another thread, but sooo pleased for your lovely scan!

 

[kizzyt]

hey ladies,

hope everyone is doing well, some great updates coming in! welcome back Lil!!

AFM, I have FINALLY started shopping for prams etc, think I am slowly coming out of denial haha! I had seen the Quinny Zapp Xtra online and really liked the look of it but I went to see it "live" today and now I am not keen so I am swaying more towards the Bugaboo Bee and just searching around online to get the best deal as Mothercare price match it

I have also been thinking about Tinks's bedroom and I really like gingham and cupcakes so I think I'll have white furniture (we already have most of this except the cot), pale walls and gingham curtains with cupcake accessories and some bunting which I think is really cute. Not sure what kind of carpet to go for though, hmmm...

Amber, I love the room, its beautiful!

 

[Morticia]

Hi girls!
Just wanted to check in to say HOORAY - everything went perfectly with our first scan this morning!!! Saw the little kidney bean's heartbeat flickering away...such an amazing feeling.
They dated me as 9+3, so my ticker's a little out, but seemed very pleased and said the bleeding a week or so a go must just have been an anomaly. PHEW!!!!

Neffie...we are bump date buddies almost, my official 12-week scan is on July 13!! Your pics look amazing by the way!!!

Lil - so pleased for you and your soaring levels, too. Good news all round!!! X

 

[Amberyll23]

Morning ladies and Happy Friday!

Morticia-- so happy your scan went so well, and that you got to see the heartbeat, so wonderful!!!! Very stoked for you!!

kizzy--aww, the gingham and cupcake idea is so adorable, I love it!! Happy pram hunting!

Grand--hope moving day is going well for you!!

AFM: Excited to be at the end of a crazy week at work! They put in a whole new computer coding system that we have to use and I have spent the week correcting other people's mistakes (the down side of being a supervisor!), blech! Looking forward to some R&R with DH this weekend and some nursery painting!! Also, I FINALLY got the highlights back in my hair! Hooray!! I finally look myself again (well, from the neck up that is, lol!)

 

[lilrojo]

Moricia-that is great.. so happy to hear everything went great at your scan.. My us is the day before yours.. yay for a busy scan week..

Amber-hope you get some time to relax this weekend.. have fun painting and getting that nursery ready for baby gracie.. so cute..

Kizzy-good luck pram shopping.. hope you can find something you love and will suit your needs..

 

[sparkle]

Such lovely news all round!

Kizzy- we had a bee for our son and I shall be using it again this time. I simply love it!

 

[grandbleu]

Neffie - Changing your date hon for July 15th

Imp - How's your hubby doing now???

Lilrojo - Updating your July 12th scan hon

Morticia - Excellent news that little bean is beating his/her wee heart for you - They are so cute that early. I'll put your next scan up July 13th (mid July will be full of news!)

Amber - Wow that sounds kind of cool actually...I'm a bit pathetic at computers I know enough to know I don't know anything. Even being on BNB and doing BBB code has been fun! (Mini Matrix LOL ). Have fun painting and with OH.

Sparkle - How's things going hon? Take it easy.

Kizzy - You must let us know what pram you pick! I love your cupcake/gingham theme. Maybe keep the carpet neutral so you can use it later on as your princess grows and the room changes around her style.

AFM: We got our keys and moved in a bunch of stuff this morning. OH has to work today so we'll begin again later this afternoon/evening. We've got some painting to do as well. I love our new place...small but sweet. We won't have a nursery for little blue since we only have a 1 bedroom but we'll make a corner for him...I'm thinking Sea Theme - what a shocker!
