getting her cot this weekend and dressing table was not going to get one but was only 50 pound and it matches the cot haha so thought why not.

I had my grant form waiting for them 2 get back 2 me but rumor is they are paying out in may xx
 
Thats lovely SJK :D

Hehe MB what a lovely man :happydance: Liam would have had a tantrum before giving in.

Got uni today :( 9 - 3...makes me feel siccccccck. I'm debating whether to skip my last lecture simply cause I dont wanna go, no other reason :blush: I'm tired already now!! :rofl:

Hope everyone has a lovely day, speak to you all later :D x
 
I have sent my form off so hopefully we will al hear something about the grant soonish i know it would come in really hand right about now lol!

We can't decorate the nursery as it's private rent and they would whinge but got all his furniture in and up and all the bedding in and for the moment he has a little teddy tucked under the blankets in his place lol!

I'm starting to get really impatient now i want time to fly quicker.

I have my GTT on the 6th May along with another scan and an antenatal appt then i have a midwife appt 2 weeks later 20th may then am on the countdown for his arrival with my 2 weekly antenatal appts lol! So scary and exciting!
 
I sent my form off approx 2 weeks ago but was told by the MW they wont be paying anything until May at least!!

Form says to ring after 4 weeks if nothing heard so will do that after my 4 weeks!!

Know what you mean Elley about time - seems to be going really slow at the minute!! Cant wait now!!

SHELLEY - where r u? get your internet sorted!! we r missing u!!
 
The first few months have flown by but right now it's like time is stood still and it's bugging me! I want it to start flying again so i can be comfy again...
 
Yeah thats how I feel!! 1st and most of 2nd tri went really fast but now seem to have hit a wall where it is taking ages to budge!!

When I think I only have 86 days to go that doesnt sound very long but I also know thats how long it is til I can claim back my body and lie on my belly!!
Thats the bit thats really getting to me at the mo!! I need comfort!!
 
Ive got an extra 10 days on top of you! I just wanna be able to wear my jeans without feeling horrid
 
Hi girls :happydance:

Yes shelley where are you ? I think the time is dragging also, Im not back at mw for another 5 weeks, so I booked a gp in between, just to be sure, but I think after the 34 week mark, it will fly in :happydance::cloud9::baby:
 
Fun, fun.

I'm really tired. Slept like crap last night, had to get up early to go to an early appt. for the blood draws.

The glucola this time around was waaaay worse than last time, and I spent hours feeling sick to my stomach and wishing I would throw up (but I couldn't or else it would be a redo).

Spent 4 hours in the hospital and my poor arm is all pockmarked and sore from the multiple blood draws. I was starving by the time they were done, since I couldn't eat, and then I ate and it made me sick all over again.

Not a fun day.

Now I am thinking about taking a nap.

:shock: How is that possible?! Didn't we just get our :bfp:s like... yesterday???

Welcome, Sam! :wave:
 
Hey girls!

Guess who's up and running?!!! Long time I know - it has felt like a lifetime!!!

So. Now I need all the gossip/information for thr front page and for my peace of mind! So many changes seem to have happened, and I felt like Ive been on my own apart from my OH!

I have a nice little bump coming along. Headached have been banished(well almost) by trial and error. Seems like I have some sort of allergy/intollerance to fruit. The only fruit I can eat are apples and bananas. I initally thought it was oranges so I avoided them and they got better - but then I tried pears and plums and I got bad bad migraines off those too. So now I if I want something nice i usually just stick to biscuits! lol..

So, I havent got my nursery set up. I am buying the furniture soon but wanted some tips off you girls before we got it. What have you all got and from where?? I have been looking at babies'r'us mainly, but Im convinced you can get as good quality for less money........? If anyone has any ideas please give me a shout. OH has to practically redo the whole room. New doors/skirting etc. We're starting next week hopefully.

I sent my forms off for maternity allowance today and my grant forms last week. Am I about right with everyone else?! I am still working full time which is begining to drain a little now. I was doing ok, but the last few days my tum is getting bigger and I am tired more and more. I have said I'lll stop work 2-3 weeks beofre baby. Im begining to think thats a little creative!!

Right, I need to eat as my heartburn is back and its killing.

Pleas update me with all your news - I'll change the font as and when too.

Lots of missed hugs!

Shelley xxxxx
 
Thanks for the welcome TigerLady :)

Hey Shelley - I saw you mentioned maternity allowance. I applied for this too, almost 2 weeks ago now, but I haven't heard anything. Do you have any idea how long we have to wait??
 
Hi Sam,

I dont know hun. I guss it depends on what date you said you wanted it to start from. I imagine they will write to us and let us know - but saying that - it is the government we're talking about! lol. Let me know if you hear anything

xxx

Ps, Welcome to the group! You're due a day after me!
 
Oh dear - come to think of it I don't think I gave a date I wanted it to start from! I'm gonna look back over the form - hopefully there will be some sort of option where if you don't specify a date, it starts from a set point. Saying that, knowing me, I wouldn't be suprised if I missed it!!

Aww, one day difference, yay :) I really can't wait, I'm so excited! Just want these weeks to fly by!
 
Welcome Sam & welcome back Shelley!!

Shelley please can you update the front page to show I'm on team pink? Haven't got another scan but if you want to put a date in, my next midwife appointment is 11.5.09 :hugs:

As for nursery furniture - we're not gonna get actual nursery furniture as I think it's a rip off & the wardrobes are small. So we're gonna get normal furniture - a wardrobe, chest of drawers & maybe dressing table/bedside table, probably from Argos. Think we're getting the Alpine cotbed from Mamas & Papas in Demerara, but that will depend if we can find furniture to match. If not we'll prob get pine xx
