First Time Mom's - Due March/April 2013

[doggylover]

Ohh Teresa apologies I must have gotten over excited with all the gender stuff! Glad it went well though.

Jenny! Another beautiful little girl to join us!!! Congratulations!

 

[Laura91]

Me & OH have different views on names too. Any name I like, he just says he doesn't and that's that. He only likes 3 names, which I don't mind but they're not... amazing

I just want a nice 'traditional' name - Max, Connor, Harvey/Sophie, Nicole, Holly etc. He wants the name to mean something to both of us

Jenny - Congratulations on getting a pink bean!

 

[Cherrybump]

congrats jenny.

cnt wait for my scan heehee xx

 

[doggylover]

Laura I love the name Max! I think it is so cute for a little boy!

I am feeling more and more movement now I ate an Oreo earlier and about 2 minutes afterwards baby was fluttering away, I imagine demanding more yumminess! Definitely take after their mother!!!

 

[Laura91]

Doggylover that's so cute! My first big movements were on Sunday after my McDonalds so I keep telling OH that baby likes McDonalds It could be true? x

 

[doggylover]

Only way to find out is to eat more McDonalds and see! Good excuse to!

 

[JennyNBaby]

Hahaha! Oreos and McDonalds. Gotta love our balanced diets!!!!

 

[Laura91]

That's exactly what I thought! x

 

[doggylover]

so true!! Everything in moderation...!! (I had 4 other biscuits/cookies today as well. And it's not even 3pm!!!)

 

[Laura91]

I can never make my mind up as to what it is that I want

I end up eating 10 courses of different things - the other night I had:
chicken and salad
celery
3 biscuits
chocolate mousse
crisps

In the end I had to give up as I made myself feel sick

I still wasn't satisfied though x

Teresa, I'm sorry you didn't get to have your scan yesterday! Looks like OH and I have about the same amount of time to wait as you. I started counting down yesterday until the 13th for my scan, 19 days to go. I'm glad you got the hear the heartbeat though.

Laura, the only name OH and I have both come across that we're both okay with is Aidan, it's unique for him since we know no one with the name but its not so far out there that I don't like it. It's hard trying to come up with names when we have such different ideas.

Sarah, I'm so glad you're starting to feel more movements. I'm definitely noticing them more frequently as well though there are still some times where I'm not exactly sure if it's the baby or something else.

As for our diets, I had Long John Silvers yesterday. Probably the greasiest fish place ever but it just sounded so good. Then I finished the night with a bowl of ice cream. Fast food seems to be the only think I want lately.

 

[Cherrybump]

So jealous of your ladies feeling your baby move. im yet to feel defo moved. Although im loved fast food just had madc's lol now eating peice of cheese cake yummy.

Cant wait to feel movement although my bely has growen

 

[linzylou]

I just had a bean and cheese burrito with sour cream. That covers a few different food groups, doesn't it?

 

[LiverpoolLass]

Argh I've been dying to get online and share my news but my internet went down!!!!!!

Anyway!.....

We are having a lovely little BOY!!!

The scan was SO lovely - I'm so glad we booked a private one! They spent 45 minutes scanning me, they showed us EVERYTHING, measured everything, they even showed us in 4D which wasn't what we'd paid for...and they gave us 30 print outs! Some 4D and some 2D!
We even got to see the placenta working and everything
It was so amazing!!!

And the best news....everything seems absolutely perfect and baby is measuring right to the day!

 

[linzylou]

CONGRATS!!!! Those scan pictures are amazing! Great to know baby Tyne is doing well!! Yay team !

 

[Cherrybump]

congrats hun xx

I'm on the count down to mines now lol

 

[Laura91]

Congratulations LiverpoolLass! x

 

[doggylover]

Hayley congrats on Tyne's lovely scan! 45 minutes must have been totally immense, you are so lucky!!

So I don't know if i mentioned this before, but I haven't actually made an announcement at work yet that I am pregnant. It's now gotten to an awkward point where I clearly am, but just the time has never seemed to arrive to say anything.

But that doesn't matter because it turns out they've all guessed anyway lol!!! So no big announcement needed, my big old bump was apparently enough!

 

[MrsHippo]

Congratulations!!!! I can't wait until we all know what we are having

As for movements, I think I've felt bean three times but haven't felt anything for a while now... Can't wait until I can start feeling proper little kicks and stuff!

 

[I Love Lucy]

Congratulations Hayley! We have our fist Team Blue member!! I'm hoping my scan will go as well as your scan went.

It's so exciting getting to find out what everyone is having. 18 days left before my gender scan.

Good thing I'm getting married in 7 days so I can focus on that otherwise this waiting would be even more difficult.
