Knocked Up Naughties

[topazicatzbet]

im sure that will fly by hun with christmas in between. something else for you to focus on.

 

[Mum2bewaiting]

yeah, last time the 4th to 8th week really dragged, this time I'm hoping it won't as am working too...
My main problem with xmas is coming up with excuses for not drinking lol

 

[samzi]

going to look at prams tomorrow. yipee

 

[topazicatzbet]

that will be so much fun. i got given mine so missed out on that but went with my friend the other weekend when she was pram shopping. it was fun to work out how they collapse down etc..

i would make a list of all the things you think are important, ie light weight, has a car seat. etc..
its easy to be swayed by one that looks nice but they arent always the most practical for your needs.

my friend had seen one she liked but it wasnt til i saw it and asked does it change to forward facing as well that she looked to see if it did.

Hi All.
Yay. It is Friday!!

Samzi-Pram shopping is fantastic. I agree with Beth that a list of your needs is a great way to do it. Lots of people give advice and recommendations, but obviously not everyone elses pram is going to suit you. Enjoy. We spent 2 hours in the shop testing everything out. There are a hell of a lot of prams out there.

Mum2bewaiting-Congrats Taking it one week at a time is the best philosophy. Take care of yourself, especially as you are poorly.

RaeRae-poor Jac. It is hard to see your LO upset, but all done now.

Tori and Blondie-fab pictures. What beautiful naughties.

Beth-LOL!!! I got pulled over just as a regular check thing. Even though you know you have done nothing wrong you still panic. Glad he was good looking-makes the experience far more enjoyable.

Flowertot-nursery sounds fab. Are you a dab hand with the sewing machine?

to anyone I have missed.

Pretty tired this week as not sleeping well. Glad it is the weekend. Starting to count down until my Maternity leave starts-can't wait.

Just noticed I am in the penultimate ticker box

 

[samzi]

[msmith]

Scarily it is flying by. Hope it is for you too Samzi.

 

[samzi]

After xmas has come and gone it will definetly fly by!!!

 

[topazicatzbet]

it feels like my last few weeks have dragged. oh well 12 days to go til EDD.
come on young man.

my side is killing me as callum seams to have this exact spot to keep sticking his foot out and it is soooo sore.

 

[topazicatzbet]

hey girls.
ok so here is the pic of me in my dress.
i ve no make up and my hair is just thrown back so im not looking my best so be nice. i feel massive.

 

[Freyasmum]

You look lovely, Beth - and not even a bit like a big tomato!!

 

[tori_cottier]

you look blooming marvelous hun and my comment is the same "nothing like a tomatoe!"

 

[Freyasmum]

Do you know what? I just can't get my head around this boy thing.
I was so convinced I'd be having another girl, and it just seems wrong somehow.

I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have said she'd seen a 'willy' if she hadn't, and she did say she'd seen it several times... but do you think she could have made a mistake?

Don't get me wrong, I am super excited about it being a boy, I just don't quite believe it.
I'm being a bit silly, aren't I? It's like the start of the pregnancy all over again, when I couldn't actually believe I was pregnant.

 

[topazicatzbet]

awe thanks girls.

it is prob because you have a girl already, your used to carrying a girl.
why dont you go but some really cute boy cloths so it feels a bit more real.
i think its very unusual for them to get a boy wrong, they usually say girl and miss the by bits.

 

[Freyasmum]

I think it's because we just don't have boys in my family. And I know (from a friend who did it) that if you are trying to conceive a boy you should avoid dairy foods - which I eat a LOT of. And this pregnancy has, so far, been practically the same as with Freya. And I read a study linking asthma getting worse during pregnancy (which mine has) to the baby being a girl...

I think I has just added all those bits and bobs of (mostly rubbish) information, and decided that there was no way it was going to be a boy, which is making it harder for me to believe it now.
Even the midwife said she'd still say girl when she listened to the heartbeat on Friday morning.
Guess we'll know for sure in April, won't we?

You're right though. Maybe I should go buy some boy stuff. It's so darned cute...

 

[pipkintyler]

Hi everyone,

Topaz, you look lovely in your dress, very neat bump I would say, I just look like a big fat mama, can't wait to fit back into my old clothes, I know i'm eating far to much as I've gone up to a 14 even in maternity clothes.

Mum2be, I'm sure what with xmas and stuff the time will fly by for you.

Samzi and Msmith, can't believe your both over 30 weeks now, it's gone so fast!!!

Freyasmum, I know what you mean about having a feeling about what the sex is, because i'm convinced now that I'm having a boy, initially I thought it was a girl as I kept calling it she but now it's changed and I keep calling my LO he, nightmare!!!

Tori, loving the photo's, very gorgeous boy you have there.

Well everything is good with me, baby seems to be moving alot more now which makes me laugh as I'm ticklish at the best of times, love the feeling though, the good news for me is that I am now finished work till 4th January as had loads of holiday left to take so I'm meeting loads of friends for lunch this week and then next Sunday I fly off to Lanzarote for 7 day's, I'm going to look like a beached whale but I don't care!!!. 22 weeks tomorrow.

Hugs to everyone I've missed. xxxx

 

[Mum2bewaiting]

u look fab Beth
Enjoy ur break Pip x

AFM, went to my works xmas do on Saturday night, intending to have an early one and left at midnight, I started to leave at 11 but ended up talking to everyone again, there were a couple of us completely sober, and it is one of those events that is usually pretty good, but I have generallt been drunk, so wasn't sure if that was the reason... but it must be a generally good night either way

Woke up yesterday with a stinker of a cold so spent all day on the sofa under the duvet, typical... as soon as u can't take anything, so got to catch up today (although I feel a lot better than I thought I would)

Line yesterday was nice and dark too so digi planned for the end of the week I think to see if I can hit the 3+

 

[samzi]
