July 2009 buddies wanted!!

[Twiglet]

Yeah I really like the one we've got, I've seen some that I've really dislike and there was one in Mothercare where the baby didnt even face you but outwards instead! No thanks

We had a look at the Marlin one but it was so bulky and I looked so silly pushing it as I'm quite small lol.

Hi All, Congrats to everyone who's had a scan of late. Lots of good news to read

I found these links in other threads I was checking out today, and just thought I'd put them here incase anyone is interested in the weight/size of their bubs at particular weeks. It has me a little worried though as my LO is rather larger than these figures!

Hi there,

Just to let you know my scan yesterday went well, little man was confirmed as definately a little man!!

The Scanner bloke made me laugh tho!! little man was wriggling like mad again and he actually said to me " my gosh he is a little bugger aint he!!" lol

I was laughing at the time but have since thought - o no - I hope that is not a sign of things to come!! ha ha lol!!

bit bad that you are told before he is born that he is going to be a sod!! lol.

anyway all was fine - got all the measurements he needed this time!! - even if it took him a while!! reckon he's gonna be a big lad!!

 

[maybethistime]

Hey all excuess me while I catch up

AND scream 24 weeks yay !!

so much is happening in here lol i have so much work its madness hope all is well chat soon xx

 

[Twiglet]

Yay on 24 weeks MB

Glad they got all your measurements Gem Caitlyn plays up all the time at ultrasounds, last time I was tilted headdown to make her move

Had a rough night last night! Woke up at 3 and then again at 4, went to the toilet and had awful heartburn and ended up being sick...not nice, it's the most painful its everever been for me. Go back to bed and the cats play up ended up getting back to sleep at 8 when Liam left! Not impressed lol.

Now gonna have some food and then do the work that is beckoning woo.

 

[pimplebum]

hi everyone hope you are all well today ....congrats mb on 24 weeks yeahhh so am i and i think he wants to be a footballer as hes kicking hell out of me at the moment but would not want it any other way hehehe

 

[SJK]

Yes and I hate it! I get it from just drinking tea too! Not nice

I get it when I burp, I dont even need to eat

 

[SJK]

Yep me!!! Started getting it about 10 days ago - apparently you get more with girls cos they have more hair.

Now you got me thinking its a girl xx

 

[SJK]

Ha ha I wonder why it makes her kick?!!

I've posted a question about this in 2nd tri but just wondered if you were all getting a moses basket as well as yr cot & whether you'll be putting the cot or moses basket in yr room when the baby is in with you?

Im getting a moses basket for downstairs and a crib for our room, and leaving the cot in the nursery xx

 

[Twiglet]

Yeah thats what happened to me last night SJK, I burped and then whambam awful heartbun and ended up being sick...was not happy

Congrats on 24 weeks PB

Done 5 pages of notes now for this work means I can finally start typing this up tomorrow woop

 

[SJK]

Hey girls , hope all is well

Hi ttcarmybrat and welcome xx

yay gem for the scan xx

congrats MB on the 24 weeks

I invested in one of them body pillows and Ive had the best 2 nights sleep in a long time, well worth the 20 quid

hope everyone else is well xx

 

[wishingonastar]

yep body pillows rock! i've been using mine since about a month ago!

and in answer to elliebank...i'm using moses basket for first 4 months (approx) in my room then moving baby to its cot in its own room after that

 

[KimE]

Thanks everyone for the warm welcomes

Congrats to those who are 24 weeks - viable yay! I can't wait till bubs is viable.

I was worried when they told me at the hospital that my placenta is low but I think that was partially because the woman was German and I didn't really understand her looked it up on the internet and it doesn't sound tooooooo worrying - what does anyone else think who has the same problem? Should I be worrying?

 

[KimE]

oh and I have the worst heartburn and acid EVER!!! It sucks Twiglet & SJK you both have my sympathy

Body pillows are the best, have used mine for about a month now cos I have mild spd in my hips and I can't sleep without it

 

[Twiglet]

Naw dont get worried, I posted a thread on here about it and the amount of people that have had it and resolved it was immense

In 95% of cases it'll resolve itself and if it hasnt by your next scan they generally scan you at 35, 36 and then 37 to keep checking. If it hasnt moved by then I'll be scheduled for a C-Section but the way I'm trying to make the worst case scenario seem ok is that at least I'll know when my little Caitlyn will be here hehe

Heartburn is still plaguing me, am hoping it goes in the next few weeks please lol.
