Hello Ladies :wave: So Sorry for being MIA and lovely of you all to be concerned ,
my best BnB !!!!

Steph guessed it, house stuff keeping me on my toes! Friday was super busy at work, and then Saturday was the house stuff. .but I did manage to go to brunch with DH and some friends Sunday so that was lovely! I had 3-4 sips of beer from DH..its the perfect antidote to heartburn That's about all I'd allow myself!

There's a naughty kid in there I tell you....I had some dessert at night yesterday and LO went MENTAL ! was kicking my gut furiously for an hour after! was super charged with the sugar methinks.


How was the late shift steph? and Big to little Brandon!!

Certain- for 4 months! i hope you did find some maternity wear. I find leggings the best as the bump grows, I got some with bump support from mothercare, they are lovely.

Smiley- for the low low risk Down's syndrome. Bet you're relieved...was a BIGGGGG stress point for me as I'm over 30.

Traybaby- you'll get to mat wear soon enough! Trust me, the bump explodes in month no.5!
How's monday morning for everyone?

Aww Certain - such a lovely bump!! Def see a difference I'm sure my 13 week bump is the same as your 16 week one!

TrAyBaby - Congrats on Blueberry!!!

kbkb - Haha, that's so cute your baby like deserts! Ohh maybe that does mean it's a girl

x x x

 

[kbkb]

Thats such a cute bump, Certain !!!!

Smiley- that's what I thought too...very girly, no?

 

[TrAyBaby]

aw certain now i have bump envy, very cute bump x

 

[smiley330]

Oh, I have just purchased the most delightful pair of maternity jeans from Topshop... Very pleased with them... may have to invest in the same pair but in diff colours

Just thought i'd share! x x x

 

[CertainTurton]

Oooo what sort are they? I could do with another pair of jeans - they didnt have any in my size on Sat I hate jeans shopping normally!!

LO is moving loads today! I have a wriggler in there but I am SO SO SO bored at work rescue me please!!

 

[smiley330]

They are the Baxter ones, they're in the maternity section online so have a look! I find it so hard to get jeans normally, so was very surprised that these came good. I guess jeans shopping is quite subjective though!

Ahhhh that's so nice to feel movements whilst at work - I can't wait for that! No matter how bad the day is at work, with your baby wiggling around it always makes it better!! x

 

[steph1505]

Hey!!!

Certain ur bump is sooooo cute!! I can def see a difference!! Have ppl started givin u comments? Eek!! Its so good u can feel baby loads!!

I *think* i can start to feel baby! It def wasnt wind

Smiley - i love the jeans!! I need to get some leggins & jumpers & then i should pretty much b done!! Smiley, i seen on fb u said u didnt have mat clothes last time...how did u manage that?

Loads of ppl have been commenting on how 'podgy' i look now! Cheers guys! Its really buggin me now! Its cos my work clothes arent tights so i do look a wee bit bigger! It bugs me how every1 thinks its ok to call me fat tho!! Ggrrr!! Haha!!

Wot u ladies up to 2day? Xxxxxxx

 

[steph1505]

Oh!! Happy lemon day smiley!! I cant see my own ticker for some reason! Can anyone tell me what fruit i am?? Lol!! Xxxxxx

 

[kbkb]

Happy Navel Orange day, Steph!!!!! and happy lemon day smiley!

I still stay a papaya....Bummer! but happy V-day to me!

 

[steph1505]

Oh my god kbkb!!!! Ur 24weeks!!!

Happy happy happy V Day to u!!!!!! Aaaahh!!!!

How exciting!!

How r u doin?? Xxxxxx

 

[smiley330]

Hahaha, why a navel orange? Not just an orange? Well, happy navel orange day Steph!

Woohoo, i'm a lemon!

Oh my gosh, HAPPY V DAY kbkb!!!! That is so exciting!!

Oh Steph - I have no idea how I managed it last time. I just didn't need any maternity clothes. I didn't start getting big, as in properly big until about 23 weeks - then I just had bigger size jeans, and when I was really big I must have just worn leggings? I really don't know!!!

x x x x

 

[kbkb]

Thank u ladies!!! I dont know what I'm feeling apart from the fact that I' m getting used to being kicked a lot
Lovely that Certain is beginning to feel kicks too!!!!

Smiley- I'm like you...I have like 1 set of maternity pants and 2-3 set of support leggings cause i only started getting big a few weeks back. My friends gifted me 2-3 loose tops! I have not been on a mat shopping binge yet...I'm proud of me

Steph- it is AMAZING what people feel entitled to say to a woman just because she is pregnant. Podgy??? I mean hello? Just ignore or ask your employer if you can wear a tee that says "pregnant, not fat, ignoramuses" ...

 

[smiley330]

Yeh I think loose tops were what I went with last time! I'm just too big too soon this time, so think I want to get proper maternity stuff to make it look like i'm preg and not just "podgy"....

Steph - I hate it when people just think it's ok to say things like that! A couple of times I would laugh off, but if I kept getting called it I think hormones would take over and i'd get snappy!!

x x x

 

[smiley330]

Oooh Steph, I missed the bit about feeling baby move!!! Eeekk that's exciting! Was it little thumps or the butterflies?? x x x

 

[steph1505]

Smiley - i wish id been able to get away with no mat clothes! I had loads haha! But i bloody binned it all! Raging! Haha!

Ive felt a lot of the butterfly feelings & some wee kicks! I remember from last time it turned my stomach...and this time is the same! Lol!

Xxxxxx
