Fxed we may have some more graduates by then

I will keep an eye on bids and NOMORE sounds promising too

 

[molly85]

Ohhh Madcat you paid? that sounds like such agood idea but OH would not agree yet as we would have to pay.We go away at the end of the month so might beg Midwifeif I can have my scan by then. I should be 7 weeks before I go away. Sooo excited bought some socks, booties, blanky and picture frame thought might as well get started after walking round mothercare yikes!
Hugs Girlsandwelcome to the new graduates.
Madly our cyclesprevious to are soo similer. no cm, none of the usual stuff hot flushes etc

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

I agree Molly hon and the best thing is NOMORE seems to be following the same trend

and

two more s Ladies did you see? Coming in thick and fast now

I havent bought anything yet Molly hon I dont know how I have resisted I have all as new barely used moses basket and rocking stand, total bath set, rocking bouncy chair and a play mat from my little sister and her DD whos 7mths old ..... I also have a bumbo chair which is pink so depends if `beanie baby` is a little girl as to wether we use it or not but am glad to pass on if not I still have DS` mamas and papas cot which was promised to my sister but my best friend has a one yr old who shes putting in a bed soon b/c he doesnt like it and she has promised me her cot so I even have that sorted

Our major buy will be a pushchair followed by steriliser and bottles....after that nappies, wipes and milk which I like to really stock out on! Followed by blankets clothing etc

I am so so excited

DH wouldnt agree to paying for an early scan either and right now with DS birthday next month and then christmas something we cant afford however I plan on using my birthday cash (my birthday is nov!) to pay for a 3d/4d scan when I am around 25wks I am hoping I can schedule this before xmas and I am going to arrange a treat out for us as a family....me, DH and DS I think it will be an amazing experience

 

[molly85]

Awwww. we prob have loadsof stuff coming ourway but I like to plan ahead. i dnt believe injonxing so have told work, family and some friends I have loads of questions nd ppl have been sooo useful and kind. i have to have ago at nesting this weekend early. My dad's already said they will buty us some washable nappies. very useful if we have the greatside effect of hypothyroidism of pretermbirth as you can use them on any size lol. I also thought great for nights.Washing machine won't know what hit it

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

I was thinking about reusables too hon....may look into a bit more

Funny I dont feel by telling people it will jinx anything either even after m/c exact month before beanie baby....I feel really good about things and I go with my instinct and it tells me I have told my mum sister and a few close friends including some of the mums at DS school I am close with! DH wont tell his family until 1st scan funny with DS he could wait to tell everyone! He also wont let us tell DS yet which I agree with right now but only b/c he has just started school and its a major step in his life I want to tell him real soon though I want to tell everyone else too including work but DH says he wants to wait until 1st scan arrrrrrrrrgh men! I just dont get it he has no reason for it and just says `because I want to wait` which is really frustrating

I will get oodles of equipment from my sister and I have told her I will give her some cash for my nieces bank account once we sort out finances etc out.....Mat leave will only attract smp for me so we are planning for that right now too and if beanie baby is a girl even more because princess pea (my niece) will be about 14mth old when beanie baby is born so nice age gap for passing things on

Anyone discussed names yet

The only boys name we both really agree on is Charlie Middle name Roman but DH likes Ronan!
Still debating a girls name although my mum suggested Charlie for a girl too which I really really like the idea of Am not sure about Charlotte a bit too much like my name which is Charmaine but like the idea of my little girl being called Charlie it just seems to fit I think Charlotte as her sunday name could grow on me though!

 

[molly85]

Lol we have had names for 2 years. Roger(OH's dadsname) Spencer or Mathew & amelia Cisely Grace ( after my grandmother). MIL wants her name carol in,she can take a hike I dnt like it.

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

I agree hon

TAKE A HIKE MIL

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

I think we will be going with Charlie for either team or just need to decide on a middle name now

Charlie ? Staniforth

I think if we call her Charlotte her middle name has to sound/sit right with both Charlie and Charlotte which could get complicated

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Charlie Jean Jean is my nanas name but am not sure about Charlotte Jean

 

[molly85]

CJ for shortgreat nickname
i wanted my my other grandmabut shewas audrey "Betty" mary I could not do that to a child lol

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

I dont know betty is quite a cute retro name all the oldies are coming back

Love CJ we have OJ - DS is Oliver Jack I call him OJ for short

I think Charlie William is lovely and DH loves William but I dont think I could use it as a first name

Charlie Jean mmmmmmmmmmm!

 

[molly85]

coulduse the spelling Gene for aboy.
not ahopeI'mnot keen on oldies

 

[vbaby3]

here you are!! photos of one very small bean! lol. the heartbeat photo is on the left, and my tummy is shown clearer on the right, with bean at the bottom of the 'black hole'!. heard the heart (which DH was amazed at).
shes dated me back to 7 wk 1day which i thought she would, so my 12 week scan has been put back a week.
Said i had no cysts on my ovaries or anything, but i do have a tilted uterus which will mean i'll get backache in the future!.

feel a bit better that everything is in its place and behaving its self for now!

AWww thats great madcat,you'll have some peace of mind now that everythings as it should be.really cute lil bean.x
