[TripleB]

Whoop whoop hb1! All on track! Hope the appointment with the midwife goes well. xxx

 

[emmajayne]

cool.

Im struggling with this heat already. How we going to be in the heat of summer? if we get one

Think im going to have to go shopping as well. I went through 3 skirts 3 shorts this morning b4 cud find anything to fit. But then i put my top on and my tummy sticking out so much now my tops are all too short lol. I dunno if i jst look like a fat git with no clothes or if im obviously pregnant

 

[TripleB]

Haha emmajayne, I'm sure you don't look like a fat girl with no clothes! I was thinking this morning that the summer could be a little uncomfortable. I'm going to have a little retail therapy later - stretchy stuff is the order of the day, can't tempt fate with maternity clothes just yet but you are well and truly entited to maternity wear - I think they make you look more pregnant too so go for it! xxx

 

[Tulip]

Emma I'm going shopping this weekend too. None of my summer clothes fit me and all the baggy stuff just makes me look like a fat pikey!

Fabulous news on the 3+ H, well done!

Louise, that scan is getting ever closer!

 

[emmajayne]

Not sure when will get chance to go shopping. We are waiting today to find out if we exchange of contracts to then be able to move home tues!
We put an offer in on a 3 bed house in case we were lucky and then 2 days later i had the bfp

Also i dont really want to take anything im trying to do everything so right in the hope nothing goes wrong this time, but struggling with hay fever now. has anyone been told they can take anything?

i struggle with heat anyway cause am fair but roasting in may

Great for kids though theycan play out more

Hi Emma

My friend took anti histamine all the way thru - she has ecsma so bad it puts her in hospital sometimes - her mw said not to take it but she could not of coped - her baby was born in January all fine.

I have the same worry tho - have asthma and get hey fever really bad - just going to have to hope it doesn't get to the point where I need to make that choice.....

Emma have you seen those little machines that Lloyds Pharmacy sell? They have a little probe that you put up your nose for a minute twice a day and the infrared soothes the symptoms (allegedly). If you have one nearby, worth asking if it'd be suitable xx

PS -MW was lovely, Munch attacked her Doppler and she reffered us for 16w scan to double-check the spine

 

[TripleB]

Tenacious Munch! Great that you'll get that extra scan for piece of mind Nic (I'm calling you this now by the way, I've graduated from Tulip!). I had a genius shopping spree at lunchtime and got some cropped trousers with a fold-down stretchy waistband. Not maternity but perfect for the expanding waistline caused by eating not to feel sick! xxx

 

[hannah76]

wow, lots to keep up with!!

hb1 - congrats on the test! so reassuring...

i feel the same way that i'm dying in the heat and needing some loose, light clothing. got some money from the inlaws for my bday, so will be having my own retail therapy this weekend! its HOT here!

tulip, so glad to hear the mw appt went well and that you get a scan in a few weeks! woohoo!!!

and lastly, allergies - i called my nurse this week because i'm dying from allergies... she said that benadryl is best, and that although the non-drowsy ones aren't proven to be harmful, that they prefer us to take benadryl. it makes me a bit sleepy but at least i can take it at night so that i can sleep a bit better!

have a great day ladies!

 

[lolly25]

Hi girls
I agree im roasting and have spent the day with my friend shopping in town, tried to stay in the cool and the shade. Got some nice maternity tops in DP's should have been £50 but because of the sale on got both for £17 made up x
Congrats Hb on the 3+ x

 

[TripleB]

Great bargains lolly! I wonder whether my love of clothes shopping will transfer to baby clothes when (not if - positivity see!) he/she arrives! xxx

 

[MadamRose]

I have my date for my rescan and its on the 27th may so i dont have long to wait at all until i see my baby again. i will be 21weeks then and getting nice and close to being viable
Is everyone enjoying the nice weather?

 

[Tulip]

Ooh Lolly I'll be hunting down a dotty p's in Hereford tomorrow then! The one in Chatham doesn't have a maternity section.

TripleB - with me using your real name it was only a matter of time before you used mine, I like it! Glad you've found some comfy trousers xx

 

[hb1]

Hey everyone

Good Bargain hunting there Lolly - yes dotty's must be inspected at those prices!!

Triple B - I'm sure that there will be plenty of beany clothes purchased before lomg

Tulip - Good news on the mw appt at least Munch isn't the shy retiring type

Due - Happy days for your next scan
