Hi everyone,

Mustang Girl, so sorry about your previous mmc. I have hardly any symptoms at all which made me question whether i was really pregnant.

I had a private scan last night. It was amazing. They measured me to be 8 weeks 4 days. I can see the baby's head, heard and saw the heartbeat. Such a relief!

I went swimming this morning before work. I normally do pilates but my instructor has been away in August so hopefully will start it up again in September. I am going to try and swim at least 1 a week, but as it gets darker, its going to hard getting up in the morning!

Smiley- how did the psychic go?

I cant wait for the 3 day weekend, bring on the end of the day!

Morning all!

lemondrops - Welcome and congratulations!!

QPP - Yay to seeing your baby!! Did you get a picture? So exciting!

Psychic was good! Shes always very accurate, but then when she tells me things I need to do I can never be bothered. So I have a list of crystals I should get, things I should be saying to myself (to stop worrying and keep positive things coming my way etc) - maybe I will try this time.

She always pulls out the same couple of cards for me which is scary, so maybe if i'm gonna keep going to see her I should try to take on board what she says. Hmmmm I dunno.

She said my squiggle is a girl and all will be happy and healthy though, which is the main thing I wanted to know. I do wonder if she tells anyone any bad news though? I'm going to have to ask her!

Anyway, 6 weeks today!! I am a sweetpea!!! But wow do I feel sick this morning. I really hope i'm not sick cuz I hate it.

Oh, and I did throw a sicky today! So a day with my duvet is what I have planned

QPP - aw amazing that u got to see ur wee baby!! How exciting! So glad everything went well for u! That'll be a weight off ur shoulders!

Smiley - glad u had a good nite at the psychics! Glad she said eveythin will be healthy! I wonder if shes right! Ooooh!! Sorry that ur feeling sick this morning! Hopefully u wont actually be sick! just wrap urself in ur duvet and watch rubbish daytime tv!!

My nausea seems to be a bit better...not great but i dont feel as bad all the time! I am still absolutely shattered though! Back to work today! I start at half 2 and finish at half 10! Im gonna be soooo tired!

Xxxxxxx

 

[steph1505]

Aaaand....

Yaaaay on the sweetpea!!!!

 

[kbkb]

:wave: ladies! What a busy Friday I 've had for the weekend....

Smiley-Hurrah for the sweet pea!!!! Awesome if the psychic is really right- a boy and a girl, how purrrrfect ! She sounds really good....Wow, I'm so jealous, you did take a sick day have a lovely loungey wasteful Friday. Sorry you're feeling sick...maybe when you feel better make yourself pancakes with strawberries or whatever is super indulgent .I always found sweet stuff helps with nausea..

QPP- Glad to hear 8 week scan went well!!!

Steph- You're finishing at 10.30? on Day 1 back at work? not fun...

What's on for the weekend??? DH taking me and his bro out for dinner today, I'm looking forward to NOT cooking

 

[QPP]

Yes, i got a picture. Its soo cute!

Smiley, it will be interesting to see if she is right!

Steph, that sucks that you are working till late. Hopefully you can have a lie in tomorrow.

kbkb, enjoy going out for dinner.

I dont have alot going on this weekend for once. I will try and catch up with my friends and their babies!

Have a good weekend everyone. I am hoping to leave work at 5pm...

 

[smiley330]

kbkb - pancakes and all things indulgent sound amazing! I may have to attempt something this evening. I can't wait to find out if she's right or not - I've looked up and can get a gender scan done around 16 weeks - soooo, 10 weeks to go!! I really don't mind, it would be lovely to have 2 boys but i'd also love a girl - will be interesting to see if she's right though.

I have no exciting plans this weekend, enjoy your meal out - I love going out to dinner!!

Steph - 10.30 finish? That's not ideal! Hope it goes quickly for you though

[kbkb]

good weekend, eat sleep and loads of Thai...you have never tried thai? its my absolute favourite!! Another long day huh??? just the bunch of us..the UK girls are enjoying their bank holiday it appears!

 

[steph1505]

Lol i am a UK girl, but sadly when you work in retail, they make u work bank holidays lol! Ah well, double time is a bit of a bonus! Finished work for today, thats me off til saturday! Woo hoo!

Hows everyone?

I have my 1st midwife appointment 2moro! Cant wait!

Xxxxxxxxx

 

[CertainTurton]

hellooo, sorry for not responding was a bit busy over the bank holiday and sleepin when not doing things

kbkb- I love thai food, havent had it for ages, but you have my tastebuds going now....

Steph - how exciting, it makes it so much more real once you have the apps doesnt it? Although it was just paperwork at mine. FX you will get your scan date soon too!

Hows everyone else?

Im still really feeling the fatigue esp being back at work today - just struggle to concentrate after 2pm! nausea does seem to be abating slightly (dont want to jinx it tho!) although of course that makes me panic...so silly! the 26/9 feels sooo long away! My mum is a GP and im going down to stay with them next week and she has said we can try to listen on a doppler then, I will be 11 weeks so i really hope we can find it!

 

[kbkb]

Wow- Lucky you, Steph!!! Now enjoy your time until Saturday! Let us know what the midwife says!

Certain- Its good the nausea is subsiding...Dont worry, I am sure everything is A-OK with the LO...Hope you can find the heartbeat, it's really reassuring !!! Get yourself some thai and plenty of rest....I remember myself at 10 weeks, gosh I wanted to die with that nausea!

where's smiley and her sweet pea?

I'm an onion today....though I have mixed feelings about that one...I'm a stinky vegetable..

 

[CertainTurton]

kbkb you make me giggle Onion can be lovely when cooked So exciting, I cant wait to be bigger! Have you got much of a bump? I hope it is ok to have less nausea, still got sore boobs etc so FX

yes, where are you smiley!?! we miss you!!!

 

[steph1505]

Oooh kbkb! Onions are my favourite! Yum yum!!

Certain - dont worry about the sickness getting a bit better! Im sure eveything is ok! My sickness is better than what it was...but still not great! I think it might be that ive just learned to manage it better...i know what to eat or drink to make me feel better! Thats prob the same with u! Really hope u get to hear the heart beat soon!

I dont know if its possible but i think i have a wee bump! Its not bloat or anythin! Cos ppl keep lookin at it and my friends who know have said to me "are u sure ur only 7 weeks" lol! Eeek! Il never hide it for.another 4 weeks at this rate!

Well, il let uz know how the midwife appointment goes!

Xxxxxxxx

 

[QPP]

Hi everyone,

Thai food is my favourite- i could eat chicken pad thai everyday!

Steph, I also have my midwife appointment tomorrow. Good luck for yours, i hope they give you a scan date.

kbkb, congrats on becoming an onion! Today I am an olive!

Certain- I heard that nausea should start disappearing by 9 ish weeks. So don't panic! I still don't have any symptoms apart from slightly sore bbs. Bring on the 12 week scan!

 

[kbkb]

yay for olivehood, QPP!!!!!! I could eat chicken pad thai everyday too , though if i did, i'd have a mountain not a bump!

Certain-I have a bump but I'm usually able to hide it with loose clothing, still fitting into a lot of stuff apart from trousers...but definitely getting uncomfortable at times.i feel pressure on my ribs a lot of times at nights and its hard to sleep.

Steph- I guess you're showing already because this is baby no.2?
everyone says you show earlier?

yayy for everyone's MW appointments!!!!
