[mummy3]

We have told pretty much everyone but the mil still will do it on monday..

Hopeful, your bump is really really cute! With you being so petite I think you just show sooner, but will be really neat Im 5 foot 10 so baba has plenty space to hide out, will put pic up but hubby ended up late for his lunch so has to be this evening!

Lucky if your happy I would just come out with it at the party, great time to do it!

I wanted to tell you ladies something funny... DH and I were waiting a while in the doc's scanning room. He complained that it was stuffy and I told him that he could sit around with his clothes from the waist-down removed and then we'll see if its too stuffy for him.

Anyway... we got REALLY tempted to have him sit up on the table with his pants off draped in the sheet and have me sitting in the chair.

HAHAHAHA.. men are daft and love to speak with out thinking first. just hide the remote from him.

lol, well mine and I are kidders... I am almost kicking myself for not letting him sit on the table... we were thinking of it more as a joke to play on the doctor... I really wonder if he would have laughed hysterically or just thought we were weird.

hopeful- I do think some husbands are just like that. My husband who really really wanted to TTC and looked at baby stuff before we even got pregnant is totally nonchalant about everything. He says it's because it doesn't seem real to him yet. With our son he didn't truly start getting excited until we found out the sex and he got to see an actual baby looking thing on the ultrasound machine. Looks like it will be the same way this time around. I hope this week goes by fast for you and that you are in Miami with your hubby in no time. i bet you guys will have fun telling the family.

lisa- I think that was a cute way to announce it. That's too funny what your husband said.

mummy- Yeah I'm hoping that it will be a fun time to come out with it. Have fun telling your MIL, I'm sure she'll be excited.

 

[mummy3]

Ok, heres first bump pic today at 12+4, excuse the blurry and curious george pjs

 

[Wiggler]

Hopeful - You have a gorgeous little bump!!

Lisa - My and OH joke about that too, He jokes that i've had it off with the postman!

Mummy, lovely little bump coming on

Once again i had a terrible nights sleep, 3.15am wake up cos Dylan woke up screaming , 5am wake up cos OH was too lazy to turn off his alarm clock, then finally got up at 6.45am when Dylan woke up again. Found it really hard to get to sleep too, my hips were so painful when i got into bed and was laying down, they feel better this monring though so i can take Dylan for a walk around the park

Happy 9 weeks to us (luckyme)

Good morning ladies.

How lovely to announce the pregnancy. I cant wait until that day comes!!

 

[new_to_ttc]

Hi ladies

Wow mummy n hopeful lovely bumps!! Im still to conscientious to take one of mine lolol I only have 1 photo of me being pregnant with Joshua and there is no bump to be seen lol (I see it because I know its there but its a forward looking photo lol). Maybe I will post one in a few months when its more bump and less fat lolol

I got a letter today, from the gynae dept saying I was now top of the waiting list to see the gynae team about ferility options. Felt so nice ringing them and saying I had conceived naturally in the waiting time The lady was full of congratulations for me also, must be nice for them to hear such news too!

Ive got a stinking headache today I am refusing to take paracetamol, although I know its safe, I just dont trust it to be safe (Im sure only you ladies would understand me on that one!) so Im knocking back sips of water hoping that Im just dehydrated. Whats worse is I should be finished work for the weekend, but Ive got a 2 hour shift to put in after lunch too so no nap for me!! Good news is sickness I think is subsiding yay! Today I didnt wake up and 'feel sick' woohoo... although was icky about an hour or so later, I was clearly ready for breakfast, but felt ok after Now just waiting for this bloom of energy Im promised lol

Good luck with todays scans Lisa your scan pic is great!! Are you sure baby is measuring big and you're not just further along than you think? Although they do say bigger babies come down the birthing canal easier

When I announced my pregnancy on FB.. after doing all the important people in person or by phone, I put my scan photo up with a caption.. 'Joshua's baby brother or sister' thats it lol (oh and the date). To say a few were shocked would be an understatement lol I dont think my closest friends saw it coming, never mind the more distant ones lol

 

[luckyme225]

mummy- I see a little bump trying to form

wiggler- sorry you had a bad nights sleep.

stardust- woohoo happy 9 weeks to us is right. Cues the music and balloons!! only 31 more weeks to go.

new- sorry you have a head ache today. Yes, you will have to post a bump pic when your ready I love bumps!!! lol.

 

[luckyme225]

Alright ladies, here's my 9 week bump!!!!

 

[stardust22]

You are so lovely and slim and just a tiny little bump!

 

[Wiggler]

Lovely bump Lucky. I think i'll have to get some advice from you on how to get nice and slim like that after bubs is born. My body used to be like that

 

[luckyme225]

Thanks Wiggler. It took me two years to bounce back. I finally forced myself to do pilates or yoga 3 times a week, then a 20 minutes ab video twice a week. It helped tone me up after a few months. I'm going to force myself to not wait around and workout as soon as I'm healed that way it will only take a year this time hopefully. I suppose only gaining 1/2 of what a gained last time would help too lol.

 

[USAF_WIFE]

Had my first visit today. Baby is due May 20th and is healthy. I had a lot of stuff in my pee pee though so I have a feeling meds are incoming. Other then that all went well doc did not really let me see bubs on the US but hubby and big sissy got to see it dancing and wiggling. Strong HB. I am happy no more worries.

 

[Wiggler]

Aww lovely piccies USAF!

Just done anotehr check of my weight (as i am losing it i like to keep an eye to make sure its not too drastic) and so far lost 17lbs in the past 12 weeks. I dont understand it though cos i am eating like a pig! It must just be the excess weight i piled on when i had my implanon coming off. My MW will be happy. she was sooo worried about my weight when i saw her. (I was about 4ish stone overweight)

 

[lisaf]

yay USAF... beautiful scan.. bummer they didnt flip the screen for you to see too! My FS has a 2nd screen up on his wall so I can see everything at the same time he does... I think I got spoiled, LMAO

new - I'm measuring big...and I KNOW my numbers are right... I had a follicle scan on CD13 and hadn't ovulated yet but started my surge that day/night... fertility friend pegged my ovulation at CD15 but its possible I O'd CD14 (which would make my LMP numbers perfectly on time)
first scan I was 6w1d according to LMP and measured exactly that (all my scans have been done on the same day of the week, same time of day)... next week's scan I was a few days behind, but the week's scan after that I was 1 day ahead (8w2d)... then at my 10 week scan I should have been 10w1d but I was 10w3d... now at my 12 week when I should be 12w1d I was 12w4d...
SO... my little one here does seem to be growing quite well/fast... though it makes sense with how much food I'm eating and how little weight I'm putting on that the baby must be growing really fast right now... Maybe its just a catch-up/slow down thing... where its growing more now but will grow slower later?
Heck, it was moving a lot.. maybe the picture was blurred?
DH commented on how he has a huge head, so thats why the kid is measuring big right now
Trying not to worry, you know? Impossible not to think about it but I'm not obsessing at least.

 

[mummy3]

Lisa, its pretty normal, my last baby measured 5 days ahead by the 12 week scan, I had one at 6 weeks and one at 8 weeks so know dates were right, by the 20 week scan she measured smaller so it can change.

Lucky, cute bump! Im convince mine doesnt have much yet, but who knows

Nice scan USAF, glad you're not so worried.

Wiggler, thats a lot of weightloss at least you know its the implanon, your midwife wont think its too much will she?

New im sorry about your head, I have being taking tylenol which is the same as paracetemol, im not as brave as you Lol at telling the gynae people, that must've felt good!!

We took my son for his kidney test today, and it turns out his left kidney is refluxing back quite badly so hes on permenant antibiotics now and is going back for more tests, he's feeling pretty sorry for himself now after the catheter.

 

[hopefulmama]

Lucky- so cute!! you have such a long torso!! I am jealous!!!! damn you tall people!

I had lunch with a friend today who wouldn't shut up about assuming I was pregnant so I finally was like ' ya i am, can we change subject"
Since i've been pregnant i have been really bad about canceling plans with people, because I feel worse at night than in the daytime and i think people are staring to get really annoyed, one of which knows i am pregnant and they don't understand at all and thinks i am just being rude.

 

[mummy3]

Hopeful,I wish I was shorter lol. I cant believe that person was so mean even after knowing you are pregnant, some people can be so self absorbed! Dont feel bad about cancelling, just think about LO
