After a busy wedding weekend I'm glad to be back home where we can hopefully stay for the next few weekends!

Blu sorry to hear you were in a fender bender, that is a drag. Glad no one was hurt and that neither vehicle was seriously damaged.

How are you feeling Jaspie, and how long until your next scan? It will be so amazing to see how much Baby J has grown.

Hopie I hope you had a great drunken wedding night out - if anyone deserves to let their hair down it is you, so I hope you indulged in both food and drink!

Bernie hope your boss is over your work mistake by tomorrow. Everyone messes up sometimes and I'm sure you do an amazing job the rest of the time, so I hope he cuts you some slack - everyone makes mistakes!

MIL and I had the most amazing time at the gender scan on Friday. Baby Fit has grown so much and was luckily wide awake for the scan, kicking, dancing, thumb sucking and gulping down amniotic fluid. And as you will see in one of the photos below, he even pointed at his boy parts for us - right before he grabbed them, typical male.

And the pink tissue paper totally tricked DH! As soon as he opened the gift bag and saw it he said "we're having a girl." Then he just burst out laughing when he pulled out all the baby boy clothes. Our son's name will be Thomas and his middle name Al. Thomas was DH's dad's name, and my dad's name is Alan and DH's grandpa's name was Albert, so the middle name will be for both of them.

Ah fit what gorgeous pictures! Love the name too. Glad your run of busy weekends has come to an end too, you can relax now. Feels so good after being busy!

I've got my booking appointment this morning so that will be good. And a week and a day until my next scan! I can't wait to see how much they've grown! I'm having bad wisdom tooth pain for the last few days but it's got really bad now and was waking me up all night i think it's pericoronitis which is where it's only partially erupted and the flap of gum gets infected. I'm going to see the gp before the booking appt about something else so I'm going to see if she can prescribe antibiotics as I haven't registered with a dentist here yet. That's another job for today!

 

[Blu10]

So lovely Fit, DS's middle name is Thomas after my Grandad too. Your pics are fab, im on countdown now hopefully we will know in 11 days eeeeek.
Sorry about your tooth Jaspie, i ended up getting a few of mine out they cause nothing but grief! Hope the booking appointment goes well, first tri seems to be flying for you.
Bernie good luck with the boss today and Hopie I hope the hangover wasnt too bad.
We had a busy weekend, wedding reception fri then night out sat for our wedding anniversary so yesterday was a chilled day at home - bliss! Better get ready for work, have a fab day xxx

Congrats Fit!!! Amazing photo of your baby Thomas. My goodness, he looks so big!! That is so awesome he was dancing all around for the ultrasound and too funny what he did. I laughed so hard! So glad you and your MIL had such an incredible experience and perfect way to surprise DH!! So nice you are naming him Thomas. I am so thrilled for you and your family!!

Jaspie- sorry about the tooth. Hope you get antibiotics and it is pain free for you soon. Glad you are feeling good!!

Blu- sorry about the accident but as everyone said so good you and everyone are okay. Hopefully insurance picks up most of the repair cost and good car is driveable. Glad the wedding was a blast!

Bernie - hope the lake was fantastic and wishing you a much better week at work!

I think I still have a food hangover from over indulging. I also really can't drink much red wine anymore as it keeps me awake all night..so annoying! No ttc'ing as we both had the wost stomach aches ever. Ha! DF and I had an awesome time walking the whole city yesterday and getting barbecue just to top off the fattening weekend fest Nice to have a good weekend out finally.
Mom has her big test tmrw -- echocardiogram..nerve wracking but have to stay positive. And my dad is doing a lot better! And DF and I REALLY need to move on the baby thing.

Take care all and congrats again Fit -- yes, we all did seem to have the boy feeling for you! xxxx

Fit- i didnt have wifi or service all weekend, so I was dying to find out! congrats on baby boy! so far my baby radar is on point! If blu has a girl than I know that I have some kind of ESP Jaspie, Ill let you know my guess when i feel it haha. Glad to hear you all had nice weekends except for the crash blu Im glad you are ok! Hopie, keeping your mom and dad in my prayers! We had a nice time on the lake, the weather was perfect and not too hot! We had a nice house that my SIL rented and we were so lucky to borrow a pontoon boat from a friend of my husbands boss that lives out there. over all good weekend except this one girl that was staying with us ( a girlfriend of my BIL's friend) she was just awful. I just have to tell you one convo we had.... She asked if i was sure the baby was a boy, because she knew someone that was told boy but had a girl and I explained that we had the chromosome test done because we had miscarried before and so we were sure he was healthy and all boy and her response... "well you never know he could be autistic" and I then walked away some people have no people skills!

 

[hopie2015]

No...Nooo Bernie that crazy girl did not see that. Wtf?? How could anyone?! Crazy freaking b----ch! Other than that nutcase I am glad you had a great time away!
Fit- I see you posted other pics I missed.. I only saw the scan pic.. I will have to check now.
Our UK friends must be sleeping -- I mean seriously you guys- once you read Bernie's post how could any human being say such a thing to a person?
The only thing I will toot my own horn about is my crazy good ability to guess team blue (oops- I typed blu-- maybe that is a sign now that it is a boy for blue?!) ... or team girl. I even predicted Princess Kate's right. It's been going on for 16 years. I haven't been wrong yet! Blu- you are thinking girl now also? I have to guess Jaspie's next!

 

[Blu10]

Oh Bernie, some people... there are just no words! Otherwise your weekend sounds great though.
Hopie im glad that dad is improving and good luck for mums echo results. Glad to hear you may be back on the baby making wagon soon 😍 im not 100% but leaning more towards pink than blue for me this time but would be delighted with either.
Jaspie hows the tooth?
Fit has team blue sunk in yet?
All.good here today, had a lovely day at work and just watched the last of Wentworth with DH. I love that series even more than OITNB! Off to bed now.... sweet dreams xx

 

[Fit_Mama2Be]

Jaspie I hope your tooth is feeling better. Dental pain is the worst!! Is your dental care private in the U.K? Ours is here even though healthcare is public.

Hopie fx for your mom's echocardiogram. She sounds like such a strong lady and I'll bet all will be well. Baby Thomas will be having a fetal echocardiogram because our angel boy had teratology of fallot.

Bernie I can't believe that woman, saying maybe your baby will be autistic! Was she dropped on her head as a child? Wow, there really are no words.

Blu can't wait to hear what you're having!! We'll see if Bernie and Hopie's predictions are right again. I have no instincts for this type of thing whatsoever.

 

[jaspie]

Bernie what is that woman's problem! I do not get people like that AT ALL. How can somebody says something like that?

Hopie good luck for your mum's echocardiogram. Fingers crossed for a good result! And so glad to hear that your dad is getting better too. Ooh interesting you and DH getting on the baby train! Things are looking up!

Hope you're both ok Blu and fit!

I went to the emergency dentist at the dental hospital and i had to wait a while but it was free. My wisdom tooth is half through and the gum is infected. Dentist says gums are more sensitive in pregnancy so that's why it's flared up. I didn't want to take antibiotics but he said it won't go otherwise and he prescribed me a low dose which is safe in pregnancy and should clear it up. Fingers crossed for asap! I can't wait to be pain free.
Scan a week today! My boobs are quite a lot less sore than they have been but I'm still nauseous and tired so trying not to read too much into it. Roll on another good scan! (Please god!)

 

[hopie2015]

Oh, Jaspie sorry your gum is infected but great you're on a safe low-dose to kick that for good now! Many prayers for you for another perfect scan next week!!

Like Fit said, there really are no words for that moron who said something that isn't even normal to think! Glad you're doing well Fit and I just LOVE the photos of Baby Thomas! Too adorable and the show he put on!

Blu- great you had a lovely day and thank you for the kind words. Thanks everyone! Leaving for cardiologist now.. Great evening to everybody and Jaspie- try not to worry- your symptoms all sound totally good!

 

[Blu10]

Hey girlies! How are we all? Lovely to read your updates.
Jaspie my boobs still vary each day, sometimes theyre really sore and others theyre not. I hope your tooth/gum feel better soon.
how did your mum get on Hopie?
Fit will you still get a 20 week scan now? Baby Thomas is very cute!
Im feeling pretty wiped tonight, we went to order a new fridgefreezer after work then had a pub tea but I coukd now sleep on a clothes line. Looking forward to a day off work tomorrow 👍
The new job is going really well, it looks like im out on my own from friday eeeeek!! I am off all next week and we have my sister in law and her kids staying with us for about 5 days which will be fun x

 

[Blu10]

Quick addition - after two weeks of on off wiggling from baby ive felt first proper kicks tonight 😁

 

[hopie2015]

Wow- soo amazing Blu!!! ENJOY!

 

[jaspie]

Yay Blu for proper kicks!!

 

[Blu10]

Hows the tooth hun? Baby has been rolling alot today which kind of feels like when you go over a hill in the car and come down the other side and your tummy flips. He also seems to like the shower and have a good old kick and wiggle when the warm water hit my belly 😍

 

[jaspie]

Awww so cute must feel so nice to feel them often now!
Tooth is still agony, whole side of face is killing, praying antibiotics kick in soon as i can't take anymore paracetamol I'm at the limit now.

 

[bernie86]

Those kicks just keep getting stronger and stronger! its a wonderful feeling. Jameson gets very active right around bed time! and I cant fall asleep because I keep having to get up to pee! lol but I love feeling it! Glad you are now too blu!

 

[Fit_Mama2Be]

That's so great about the kicks Blu and Bernie!! I can't wait to feel something - I have an anterior placenta though so I could be waiting awhile. :-/

Jaspie I hope your mouth feels better soon; what lousy timing.

Hopie how are you? Hope your mom's test went well.

I found out today that even the dudes I used to go to bootcamp with have figured out that I'm pregnant. Apparently they asked a mutual (female) friend about a month ago if she knew why I never work out with them anymore and she guessed pregnancy was the reason. Sheesh, between that and everyone at work figuring out way before I told them I figure if we have a second baby I may as well tell everyone as soon as I pee on the stick at this rate.

 

[Blu10]

Lol fit thats funny. I have an anterior placenta too but still felt wiggles at 17 weeks so it may bot be as long as you think.
It is lovely Bernie, I had to get up twice last night to pee too, feel knackered today.
Sounds like you need brufen jaspie, thats ine bummer if pregnancy, hope it feels better soon hun!
Any plans for the weekend girls? Cant believe im saying that again already xx
