Hi- Doodlepants is funny to me too- we call our daughter Holly doodlepants! I'm not sure why?! It was a nickname as a baby and stuck! Whenever I put my name down (Maria) as a user name its always in use!
So excited for you for your scan! I hope I et mine before Christmas- I'll be 13 weeks on Christmas weekend so fingers crossed....

Morning all ladies how is everyone doing today?

My tummy muscles ache like i have done about 10000 press ups today, i had a lot of gas and trapped wind yesterday and an upset tummy so i think this is why.

Morning!

I've started the day bloated already today, not good, lol!! Made me think of this I found online...

On the plus side, I don't feel too sick this morning, just fussy about what I want to eat

Really looking forward to the new name & banners for the thread being announced later today

 

[MrsPOP]

[dan-o]

Hi MrsPOP Congrats! xx

 

[Doodlepants]

Hi everyone!
I anyone thinkng of going to any of the baby shows?
x

 

[foxforce]

Hi Mrs Pop congrats and welcome

Doodle - I think I might go to a Baby show after Xmas if all is still well, I think there is one very soon in Manchester?

 

[MrsPOP]

Thanks for the welcome guys!!! Congrats to you all too

I never even thought of baby shows! I don't know if they come to Liverpool so may do a trip to Manchester with my mum yay!!!!

 

[Razcox]

Not really though about it to be honest, but then i am having problems seeing past the 1st tri and 12 week scan at the min! I am sure once i get past that i will start to plan ahead more. They are bound to have one at the NEC at some point in the next 8 months.

So which of the banners do people like? the glitter writing or normal writing?

 

[MrsPOP]

I like the glitter writing, I'm a glutton for anything glittery! ( God help my LO if it turns out to be a girl!!!)

 

[Sofiekirsten]

Oooh I hope so we only live 15 mins away from manchester

 

[Doodlepants]

Raz- I like the glittery writing best, but they all look good to me!
MrsPop- if you google 'the baby show' it tells you all about it on there
I think I'll go to the one in London in feb- safely past the 12 week mark then! (can sympathise Raz- I'm going to be a wreck until 2nd tri!), they go on all over the place throuhout the year, I think they do one at the NEC too.
I've never been before but it looks quite good!
Foxforce- Looks like there will be a few of you going to the Manchester one!
....Well I'm going to see paranormal activity 2 tonight- I've had mixed reviews so we'll see!- sounds stupid but i was worried about getting scared...silly me!
Hope your all feeling well today- although I'm actually hoping for some sickness lol! xxx

 

[Razcox]

I quite like the sparkle as well i have to say! Will go with what most people want though

Just looked up the baby show and its not at the NEC until 20 -22 may will prob have most of the stuff i need by then as i need to start trainning the dogs from about april time ready for the baby and this involves getting the stuff . . .

I know what you mean about the sickness, its nice to know everything is ok. Today for me the main sympton is my boobs are killing me and my poor nipples are on fire! I think its time to dig out the maternity bra's i brought last time.

I am also a wreck at the moment until I get into the 2nd tri....I turn 12 weeks on 17th December so January sales is going to be great! I can't wait til we can start buying things.

Much Love

[Razcox]

How is the VAT rise going to effect baby stuff? Do they have VAT on prams and things? If they do i think i will try and get the big items before jan then . .

Oh also can you PM your due date and any scan dates, doctors app ect you have so i can get the first page updated. I am being a lazy cow and its easier then trawling through all 36 pages! Then when new girls join i can just add them.

 

[xMissxZoiex]

I dont think they can chargeVAT on baby things, i know they cant on clothes

just an update on my girls,

I had my bloods taken last week but i started having really bad cramps, they were so bad. And the next day i started spotting, and that turned into a heavy bleed.

I got the blood results back today and they were positive for pregnancy, but i have to have another blood test Friday to see if im still pregnant. All my symptoms have gone and i dont feel anything anymore

I will just have to wait and see what the blood tests come back as this time.

I hope my lack of symptoms doesnt mean anything.

Hun I have everything crossed for your little beanie.

Best of luck for your blood test on friday hun. We are all here to help

Just had a look on google and the HM revenue and found the below:

Carrycots with restraint straps 5% VAT Notice 701/23
Children's car seats, booster seats and booster cushions 5% VAT Notice 701/23
Children's safety seats with bare wheeled framework 5%
Prams and pushchairs are standard-rated

So prams will be subject to the 20% VAT come Jan by the looks, not sure about cots and things but i am guessing they are classed the same as beds and things . .

Hopefully all is well & it's just one of those first tri bleeds a lot of ladies get xx
