Its June!!!!! 20 week scan next month!!! Whos with me?

Had my midwife appointment this morning and bloodwork, everything went well I think, midwife measured me again and got 3 completely different measurements which makes me think it's not exactly a reliable method!she seemed pretty embarrassed as she got 28.5cm, 23cm and 25 so she said I am still small but I shouldn't worry for the time being. Also baby is head down and engaged which is good, I thought she was as the pressure on my bladder is unbelievable and I am feeling kicks really high up!

Nice to see some of you getting washing done today, bet it looks so cute on the line!

As for holidays next year we will probably end up going to benidorm or majorca or somewhere like that, didn't get a holiday this year so want to get somewhere warm with baby early next year!
 
Inoue why would you want to go to Nottingham on holiday!? I'm from there and it's not a holiday destination - trust me :haha:

We are going to either Menorca or Majorca next year. We did Majorca in 2010 when DD was young, and Ibiza this year and with the flight times being relatively short to the Balearics it's ideal with babies x

Lol, DH wants a lodge in Sherwood forest for a few nights. Im personally scared of tree's but he wants to do it, lol. I prefer a beach hol if poss. Abroad seems very ambitious with an under one in tow! How on earth do you do it?! X
 
Time- how bizarre with the measurements, definitely not an exact science then! Yay for baby being head down and engaged.

Holiday next year is Center Parcs for us in September and think thats about it, might do a Sun holiday

x
 
Forgot to say, thats great that the baby is engaged already. Im hope I find out on my scan in 11 days, with how the kicks are positioned, I hope LO is head down or elce im getting my birthing ball ordered! :haha:.

Centre park sounds lovely scally, they have so many activities there :) x
 
Hi ladies!!

Love the discussion of holidays, we're off to Orlando in April! Hubs parents have a house there and I need to go for work, should be interesting!!

Glad to hear appt went well hun!

So.. Had my scan and placenta is high!! Whoopee!! And baby is head down and happy as Larry nestling face into the placenta, meaning all is good for ou holiday Monday :-) was awesome to see baby opening mouth and kicking etc.. My mum and sis came as hubs is as work and they loved it :-)

Also despite fundal measurement of 29cm baby is measuring spot on, so I would dismiss fundal as a load of crap ;-) xx

Ahhh a lodge in the forest sounds nice! I thought you meant like something in the City :haha:

Holidaying, even abroad, with a baby is soooo easy! It was much harder this year now DD is a toddler and on the move. Trying to sunbathe and keep an eye on a crazy toddler who thinks bombing in to the deep end of the pool is fun is hard work!
 
pops- Yay for the placenta moving and your baby being head down- all go go go for your holiday now! woohoo! x
 
Glad you got the all clear pops! :happydance:

Lolly, it just seems such a hassle getting a passport done for LO. I changed mine due to getting married and it was a right palava and ended up costing me £94! Just to change 6 letters! (still miffed about it now). I think ill wait a few years till I do an abroad holiday again, see how I settle into motherhood :haha: x
 
Yeh passports are a total rip off. I think they are around £70-£80 for a child's and only last 4 years :wacko: we need ours though as we fly over to Ireland regularly to visit my mum so it does get used a lot!

Pops, totally missed your last post :dohh: that's fantastic news! Yaaaay :wohoo:
 
Well ladies, 1st of September it is. Another month were working into, just sit down and think... October to go.... Then due date month. HOW MENTAL IS THAT!!! :shock:

Pretty much got hospital bag ready, everythings wrapped in its own little labeled bags - so cute! Just got to get stuff like toothbrush, parking money, lipbalm, magazines etc :) x
 
Inoue- it is insane to think of it like that! Time is going sooooo fast!

Ooooh and yay to your hospital bag! Sounds very organised!

I have just finished work and have decided i cant do this all the way, even though i only work one day a week it kills me! I was going to work until d day, but i think i am going to have to give up a couple of weeks before!

x
 
I just cant stop thinking that im going to be 30 weeks in 15 days, youve only got 6 days scally!! Im really happy ive got hospital bag pretty much done, nice to know if LO plays up again, I can just grab my bag and notes and go :).

Im starting to feel more 'full' inside now and LO is kicking off most of the day, will be interested to see what position shes in. Also trying to make it my agenda to spark up mine and DH adult life, even if its just kisses and cuddles. I feel so gross and unsightly sometimes :(. Only another 12 weeks hay! Lol x
 
I know what you mean hun, we haven't DTD for ages, I was worried about low lying placenta at first but now I know thats not an issue maybe we will get jiggy on hols!!

I'm going to do hospital bag when I get back, will be 30 weeks then. Scary!! but then I'm deffo on the case :-) xxxxx
 
Sorry to hear your the same pops. We havent DTD since 20w, so 8 weeks ago :(. I kind if build up the courage but then hesitate because I know there is a risk of bleeding afterwards (DH is by no means 'gentle'). After loosing two so close together and the first sign was blood, it scares me to death. Me and DH get on so well, we kind of fall into family companionship, not sexual but more like best friends. Not ideal but I guess its all im going to get :shrug: x

Theres no way id be working scally all the way till D day, dont know how people do it. If its getting to much then leave for maternity earlier :) x
 
That's exactly how I feel, but now I know the placenta is high I think we will be DTD on holiday, I'm hoping so anyway as I keep having sex dreams where I'm having sex with my husband so clearly up for it! :haha::haha:

I went to Hampton Court yesterday with my BIL, SIL and neice and nephew, so lovely and did loads of walking and didn't feel too bad, I guess some days I have more energy than others.

Anyway ladies, I'm off on hols tomorrow so won't be around for a couple of weeks, hope everyone is ok when I'm away and catch up as soon as I get back! xxx
 
Have a fab holiday pops, we will miss you posting on here. Make sure you get online asap once home :friends: x
 
Have a good holiday pops! Glad to see that all is ok and that you can still go. Enjoy every minute!

Hi to everyone else, I need to catch up on all the pages I missed! Hope everyone is well x
 
Have a good holiday pops!!!!!!!

As for DTD i lost my sex drive after having Izzy and it didnt come back at all until i got pregnant with this one, we didnt all first trimester as had a MMC before and it was discovered because of bleeding after bedding. Then its been pretty healthy since then my hubby is making the most of it seeing as my libido will go on the missing list again! x
 
Have a lovely holiday pops!

I can take or leave DTD at the moment (preferable leave actually :rofl:), poor OH thought Christmas had come the other night when he finally got some action!
 
Have an awesome holiday pops!! Jealous of you lol

Dtd is essentially non existent right now, and not through lack of trying on my part either. I'm not angry or anything though, my OH is under a lot of stress ATM and is a little depressed bless him :( things will be back to normal soon I should think :)

How are we all? Nice weekend? Mine was spent doing not a great deal and it was lovely lol

Midwife this afternoon, wonder of I'm still measuring 2 weeks ahead or of I've caught myself up!
