ahh thanks Claire, you keep the hope alive
Yep just under a mth now until scan and till next midwife app' i wasn't expecting another till 28 wks as thats what is says in guidlines for 2nd time mum's but i think she likes to see her patients more often so i don't mind!

Does anyone have a doppler if so which one and is it good?!
I had a crappy summer one with Jay and it was a total waste of money...

Jaybear I'll stalk your journal if you stalk mine

My bp is usually around 120/70 too but does tend to be a bit higher at hospital appointments

The hb theory is so wrong for me. Alex and Bertie should be girls and Daisy a boy But the chinese gender predictor has been right all three times, as has my instinct

I have a mas baby watcher doppler, its FAB and is like the ones they use at midwife with LCD display etc. I got it off ebay 2nd hand but have used it with all 3 x

 

[Mamof1]

Glad everyones doing ok . That a great bump shiv! another perfect round bump

 

[hayley x]

got so many BH's tonight. They started really early with this pregnancy then they went now suddenly theyre back with a vengance

 

[Shiv]

i never had any BH with Sophia, so will be interested to see if I get any this time! I'll probably panic and think I've gone into labour!

 

[Jaybear5]

Ooh Hayley...I never had them with Jay either so wonder if I will get them this time round....
Thanks for the advice on the doppler, will have a lil look on ebay in a bit xx

Hi girls Claire just had a trim but made me feel better! Shiv my blood pressure was 100/56 she said thats why im so dizzy all the time its awfull! My baby has been very awkward and naughty so i think boy for you to! Had pizza late for tea so im dreading my heartburn tonight! My scan aint long away i keep forgettin cos im thinkin so much about movin x

 

[Mamof1]

What is "normal" blood pressure? Mine was 100/60?. Whens your scan Amy? x

 

[Shiv]

According to good old DR Google low blood presseure is classed when either number is below 90/60, normal blood pressure is anything above this up to a certain point (not sure what is classed as high).

Normal is around 120/80 I believe. But people can have lower blood pressure that is normal for them, or higher blood pressure that is normal for them if that makes sense!

 

[hayley x]

In pregnancy blood pressure (high) becomes an issue when it is 20 or more above your booking bp x

 

[30mummyof1]

Which chinese gender predictor do you use Hayley? One says boy for me and the other girl!

I'm having my haircut today as well, just a trim but still nice to have a bit of 'me' time!

 

[Jaybear5]

Enjoy your me time Rachel.... xx

 

[30mummyof1]

Thanks i did! Have got Thomas all weekend by myself as my oh is working so no resting for me this weekend!

 

[Amy]

my scan is the 5th shiv. Off blue clothes shopping tomoro so hope they confirm it is a boy ha ha

 

[30mummyof1]

Enjoy your blue clothes shopping Amy, there are lots of cute things for boys

 

[Shiv]

There are lots of cute things for boys and there are lots of cute things for girls - ABSOLUTLEY NOTHING for a yellow baby though

 

[30mummyof1]

Shiv,
debenhams do some cute unisex babygro's and sleepsuits, white with little sheep and chicks on (Jasper Conran)

 

[Amy]

Hi girls pretty sure its just the bath water but iv just been stood gettin ready and sorry tmi but a fair bit of water came out of me about 40mins later. You think it is just off the bath?

 

[Shiv]

That happens to me after I have a swim.

Put a pad on and see if anymore comes out and what it smells like. I believe your waters are supposed to smell sweet and obviously bath water or wee won't! Sure everything is ok though
