MrsM- I thought for a moment I wouldn't make it to today. Tough shift at work... Night went fine, just breakfast time that wasn't great... I skipped breakfast to deal with a stubborn kid.

MrsM Bring us a baby to get excited over!

I am chilling, actually I have the next two days off so don't have to go back til Sunday night, actually I don't have that kid again til Tuesday morning so bonus.

Hi there not sure how this works. But I'm just wondering how to deal with the waiting part. My AF was supposed to be here on the 5th and its now only the 7th so I'm trying not to get my hopes up but that seems a lil hard. We have been trying since March. No BC. I did have polyp removal in Feb not sure if that has anything to do with it. Any suggestions? Ideas? Im kind of confused. I have 4 kiddos never had to try or worry it just happened, but not now. Still trying to feel hopeful.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Eeee Rach I know - a PEACH! That's lovely for your friends, twin boys and a girl, awww, still, triplets are going to be an eye opener!

Ah AS I'm sorry hun FX'd for next cycle for you.

Welcome to BnB Hermosa Mommy. Have you tested? It might just be you ovulated later this month. It's still quite early days for you to worry too much, though I know it's easier said than done. Hope you get your BFP soon.

So here is Baby P! The photos aren't the greatest as he/she couldn't keep still! And they're just photos of the scan pics taken by my phone. Some friends at work think the third pic looks like a little girl because of the head Any gender guesses?! And here's my big pregnancy bloat tonight, went for a chinese with DH and some friends and when I stood up DH was like "effing hell" It probably doesn't look much but I'm normally pretty slim. It'll be gone tomorrow once my food has digested anyway lol.

Lovely scan pics. Looks great! Don't know what you're having... Hmm.... I guess you're having a girl for now. Might change my mind later.

 

[30mummyof1]

Yes tripets will defo be that! eek!

hmm i can't see anything to say boy so i'm going girl now based on those scans hun what do you think?
ahh little boat, you should have seen me at 13wks no doubting i was preggers!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Lol, were you big with Thomas too or just Harry as I heard you're always bigger with your 2nd? You know I thought I didn't care what we were having but now people are saying girl I'm like "noooo!" At least if I get my girl I get all the dressing up and taking to gymnastics and dancing and things like that which I love! So can't wait for my proper bump! Just bought my first big baby purchase! Tesco have £50 off the Angelcare movement, sound & video monitor at the minute, plus I found a discount code for another £10 off. It was £182 in the end & was too good to resist as even 2nd hand ones on ebay are £140. It's a heck of a lot of money to pay for a monitor but we think it's worth it for peace of mind and our friends have the same monitor and love it x

 

[MrsPTTC]

Oh and no, no inkling's on the sex really, though girls names are all I seem to think about! Probably because there are a lot more to choose from, boys are so hard! x

 

[30mummyof1]

well i think i looked big with both yes, put on 2st with Thomas and 12lb with Harry but i am short so i think that makes a difference. Think my waist measurement nr to delivery was like 42inches or something! The weight just seems to go to my belly though and not all over luckily in fact i think i loose weight elsewhere guess i must of with Harry as when i gave birth i lost a stone instantly!

You are right though, it is hard to fall in love with boys names. So many girls names sound pretty

 

[30mummyof1]

for monitor, we thought about a video one but changed our minds but there are times i wish i did, just for the fact i love watching the boys sleep and i can't generally get away with peeping on them as they wake up!

Just got Harry to amuse at mo, as Thomas is down at the bottom of the garden! best purchase ever is a sandpit, mummy's and future mummy's!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Thanks for the tip Rach! When I was a nursery nurse the kiddies used to love the sand and water pits! Re the monitor, my friend loves watching her LO on it. DH and his friend were talking about it today and they joked we could use it for CCTV afterwards . I've just announced on fb at last! Going to order the nursery furniture in a minute, we popped into Mothercare today with his friend who is a kitchen/bedroom fitter to inspect the quality and they both like it. It's on special for £550 from £1100 so DH doesn't want to delay in ordering it - though I think the offer will be back on before March! x

 

[Flowerbaby]

I say girl MrsP as she has same flat skull shape as Poppy had in her 12 week pics. xx

 

[Flowerbaby]

Oh and im sure i can see a straight nub in 3rd pic?? So ues i defo say baby is looking very pink right now!!

Having fun in America! Soooo hot here today! Had fab day at Disney, we off shopping tomorrow so looking forward too that.

Just hopping on too see MrsP's pics so will catch up wiv y'all soon xx

 

[MrsPTTC]

Ah hope you're having fab hol Claire! Jealous! Another girl guess, wow! Will be interesting when it's born to see if you are all right!

I'm gutted I never ordered the furniture last night & now it's gone up will have to see if I can ring them or go dwn to mothercare, see if they're able to budge on the price... X

 

[30mummyof1]

Claire! glad your having fun

oh mrsp, that's a bummer. they might negotiate fx

Planned to go for a walk around a woods about 1/2 hr from us today but couldn't find it! so just went to a little town and went for coffee/tea and cake instead

 

[MrsPTTC]

That sounds nice Rach it's gone a bit cloudy here now, hope the sun comes back out as I'm going for a walk with my BFF my dog & her LO.

I went to mothercare, the opening times on the website are wrong & were shut for another hour! I'll be emailing them to complain...I did eventually go in & the woman said the offer ended last week so I think even if I'd went to order it yesterday I would've had to pay more. She said it might be back on but can't say for definite, I'm sure it will be as my friend ordered hers jan gone & it was on then, I think they just rotate them. Fxd! Will keep an eye on the website x

 

[KendraNoell]

I think girl too, just instinctual!

Yay we finally got our crib and dresser today! Can't believe we're just now getting it but we never had the room until we moved into our new place! I so needed the dresser so I'm excited to have more storage. Need to get some more cute bins too.

Anyway, I don't know if I said this before but my house I am living in now was my dad's house when he passed away. So it has special meaning to me and I'm happy my child will be growing up in the house my dad lived in. Anyway, hubby and I were sitting with the baby on the front porch because it was nice out and Jackson just starts laughing and laughing... and we weren't doing anything to make him laugh so we both just sat there, like, what are you laughing about? Well I told someone else about it and they said, "I bet your dad was there playing with him". My heart just swelled and it brings tears to my eyes every time I think about it. I would like to think my dad's presence is here protecting our family so I am feeling good about that now.

Anyway we had a WIC appt on Thursday to check his weight and height and he is above average for all of them now! To think I had a baby that was in the 10th and 15th centile in height and weight, now he weighs 15 lbs, 9 oz, which is well over double his birth weight (6 lbs 12 oz). That's the 50% centile... and his height is just shy of 26 inches which is in the 75% centile! Which is crazy, both hubby and I are short and stocky. And our child's height to weight ratio is only 30% so he's a bit skinny for his height, which is exact opposite of either of us! But the men on my mom's side of the family are all tall for some reason so I am thinking he picked up that gene even though it skipped a generation!

Anyway sorry for the long update, it's hard to get on here much anymore, been so busy, and took all week working half days so I didn't burn myself out after the surgery, but tomorrow I have to go back full time and I know I'm not ready but we can't afford for me not to

I will leave you ladies with some pictures

 

[KendraNoell]

Oh and I forgot, his head was above the 95% percentile so it wasn't even on the growth chart. LOL... so he's a little behind with rolling over and whatnot because his head is so hard to hold up, but he's getting really strong because of it, and sits up for a second without help before he topples over like a bobblehead doll LOL
