As for me I've finally got my appointment through for my scan, it's on Thursday 8th October at 3.30pm I will be 1 day from 12 weeks (as far as I know), I really can't wait now as I just want to make sure everythigs ok. mum2be hopefully you should get your date through soon. I'm not seeing the midwife again till I've had my scan so at least your seeing yours again in a couple of weeks. xx

My scan is 8 October too!! I so can't wait. It will be such a relief to see that everything's OK. AND I might even get to see my midwife after that!

Yay, can't wait, I won't see my midwife again till about 15 weeks and then I'll be having the blood test to see what the chances are of my baby having downs.

Hi Everyone,

Mum2be, hurray for scan date, it's very exciting only 6 more sleeps for me.

Blondie, I love all the stuff you've bought, looks like your baby is going to be very stylish.

Samzi, we will be having our baby in with us for the first few months, I think it's going to be easier as we live in a 3 storey with our bedroom at the top so don't fancy LO being on a different floor for a while.

Flower, your bump looks great, I can't wait to get one I'm just very bloated at the moment so look awful.

Caitlen, Glad you've had some movement from LO, apparently this happens alot when you get to your stage of pregnancy so try not to worry.

Topaz, Callum sounds like he's doing really well, hope you feel better soon though, there's nothing worse than being bunged up especially at night when your trying to sleep.

RaeRae, can't wait to see your LO, I'm loving the pictures of Anelle, so can't wait to see your LO too.

Hello to everyone else who I've missed out. and xxx to all.

Well not much happening with me at the moment, just waiting patiently (or not) for my scan, I can't seem to get it out of my head that when they do the scan there will be nothing there, I've had no symptoms for a while now apart from being very spotty but my boobs stopped hurting a few weeks ago, I've not really talked to DH about this as he's got enough to worry about at the moment with stuff that's going on at work and I know he'll be even more worried than me if I tell him, the good news is that I will soon know for sure. Anway enough crappy stuff I'm off to the East Mids baby show in Nottingham on Sunday with my friend who had her baby in May, can't wait, anyone else going???

Hey Pip, Glad u are good, most of my symtoms have gone too, which is good cos I feel more human but rather disconserting most of the time!!
They don't do the NT scan here, so I have to choose whether to have the bloods done, but I don't think that I will, I am fairly low risk with age, and wouldn't have the other tests if they came back high risk, I justfigure that, although I would not choose to have a baby with downs, there are much worse things that they are not screening for, so I wouldn't terminate for it and any major developmental problems they would pick up at the 20 week scan... just my thought I guess,
Didn't mean to ramble on there for my reasoning, but guess it would be good to see what others thought...

Hi Everyone,

Mum2be, hurray for scan date, it's very exciting only 6 more sleeps for me.

I feel the same, I wish our dating scan was earlier as there seem little point in prolonging thengs when they don't do the NT measurements anyway

 

[RaeRae]

Awww!! Early pregnancy is so hard! I didn't have many symptoms at all and as for boobs hurting I haven't had that at all at any stage so don't worry too much x

Last box on the ticker I can't believe it!!!!

 

[samzi]

wow rae, not long to go now!

 

[Mum2bewaiting]

OMG Rae, I cannot believe u are so nearly there... any news on a section date yet?

 

[caitlenc]

Yay RaeRae!!! Last box, I can't believe it!

 

[Blondie]

Wow RaeRae - last box and it really can only be a matter of weeks now Are you looking forward to it?

To those ladies worrying about symptoms / lack of symptoms - I found it changed on a daily basis for me in early pregnancy - I'd have days where I felt great and couldn't stop worrying then I'd feel like death again etc. I'm sure you will all be fine

Right downstairs cleaning now complete - floors polished and hoovered, kitchen immaculate, stairs hoovered, everywhere dusted and tidied up

Just got upstairs to do now but that will mainly be hoovering all the bedrooms and a quick dust - oh and the bathrooms but DH did the showers for me the other day as the fumes were too much so I'm nearlly there

Baby really having a good squirm round now though - hope it doesn't do a full somersault as I like knowing it's head down at the moment. It's had hiccups most of this morning which has me giggling - sometimes I absolutely love feeling baby when it just has little wriggles or hiccups and when I can feel it's arms down low almost tickling me but then other times when it has a proper wriggle it just goes through me, especially when you get hard lumps sticking out in various places - DH tells me to stop yelping whenever it happens as I will give baby a complex but I don't really think me having the odd yelp is going to give the baby too many hang ups in future life

Right think I will have an afternoon nap now until DH comes home from work and admires all my handywork

 

[Mum2bewaiting]

Ohh look at u busy nesting Blondie... mat leave has done u the world of good already I feel

 

[caitlenc]

I agree, Blondie, some of those movements can be quite uncomfortable!

Well, my little seahorse has been bopping around all day today and yesterday, making up for my worries a few days ago. It is an amazing feeling, but can be quite disconcerting when my belly changes shape or it sticks its butt out to the front or side!

 

[AnnaMaria]

Rae, there isn't a lot to go anymore. Last box, hooray.

We are doing fine. We rented babyscale and now we weigh Anelle before and after every meal. I won't let her lose any weight. That's it. I'm her mother and she has to listen to me. Yeah, like she would
We made our first proper walk today. We haven't done that for two weeks. Last time was Saturday morning when we went to walk and in to the cinema to see Ice Age 3. And day ended with birth of Anelle. Christ, it's already two weeks. Where time goes?
I put you a pic of our bundled babygirl waiting for daddy to bring the stroller. I should always dress her like that. She looks so big that way

 

[caitlenc]

Anelle is just beautiful, AnnaMaria!!!

 

[topazicatzbet]

he is looking stunning annamaria.


well callum has been beating me up all day today at work the bully!

managed to get the dr at work to take my bloods as well but she had to go in the back of my hand for them. any way my hb was fine cos i looked it up.

been on the honey and lemon all day today as well which is helping the cold.

hope your all well girls.

 

[Blondie]

I'm so tired tonight - off to bed in a minute

NCT class was good today, though the men were all looking a bit pale when we were talking about 3rd stage, placenta delivery and bleeding - then when they had to change nappies (complete with what you would expect in the first few days - ie peanut butter, black treacle, pesto sauce etc) I think they were finally ready to all head down the pub

Had a bump comparison with the other ladies there and they were all amazed at how small I am and I think DH felt a bit sad for me not being as obviously pregnant as people due weeks after me.

Well tomorrow I will be 33 weeks pregnant on my 33rd birthday - that is a bit random

 

[caitlenc]

Aww, happy birthday, blondie, and you look gorgeous, don't let anyone make you feel bad about your bump, it's perfect!!!!

 

[tori_cottier]

Happy Birthday Blondie x x x

Well I've managed to get a whole coat on George's room today with out to much trouble and DH and MIL are running around gettign down stairs ready now as they can see on my face it's starting to get me down a little now , DD is helping a lot as well esp with the painting there's more paint on her than on the walls

To all you ladies who are in the 1st tri, let me reassure you everything your worrying about is normal the whole losing symptoms will seem a far distance in the future and will be replaced by other worries, I was always glad to hit the later part of the 2nd tri heading into the 3rd as there is a calmness to it although still packed with some worries but it's a reassurance and this is the time i finaly admit to my self i was having a baby! But I think this is all part of the process. But what ever worries you are having we'll always be here to support and help you along the way!

So how is everyone? I'm now hitting the stage of where i can't sleep for fear i haven't cleaned/organised or done something, but tonight has been a long one as i've sat and reminised (sp) about when this all started from the moment Blondie had to reassure me that the Clearblue POAS was crap after a certain week to telling me i couldn't go in a hot tub while at my Weekend cottage then onto watching each one of you move over here and being so friendly, I think (or replace that with know) i'm going to miss it alot and all of you guys!!

33 week today for Caitlanc, Blondie and Me not long now!!

Rea Rea Congrats on getting to the last box's i think i'll wet myself when i get to that stage!

Have you girls got your mat bags ready for the hospital if so what are you packing? I don't want to take to much or to little

xx

 

[Mum2bewaiting]

I wasn't expecting to see anyone from the uk on ths morning tori... I can't sleep either... but more to do with DH snoring and the drank alcohol smell making me feel sick, I dunno how he gets that the beer makes him sleep better

Happy birthday Blondie!!! any plans? hope u have a lovely day

 

[tori_cottier]

Aww hun, your bump is perfect, I would kill for your bump as i know (and this is from past experence of my sister) for a fact as soon as you have LO your tummy is going to look no different to pre preg. us (putting this tactile) larger ladies will have to work just a little harder when LO come out. Think of it that way! x x x

Hi ya,

I think your DH and mine have the same ideas tonigh/morning, but i know from 3am onwards its like a mission to sleep at the moment, i think some one said it's your bodies way of preparing you for the baby so thats it my day will be starting before the birds are up lol

how are you finding being preganant hun?
