****Summer Cupcakes Bump Buddies ~ 8 BABY GIRLS & 4 BABY BOYS BORN ****

[Itsychik]

Good morning all!

Aileymouse-- I had the same problem this morning. I was awake most of the night feeling nauseous (and throwing up most of the morning) and when I tried to take a shower I suddenly got really dizzy and almost passed out. I ended up on the floor in the bathroom and then spent the next 10 minutes throwing up some more

I actually just started feeling better about 30 minutes ago, but I was debating whether or not to try and call the doctor... I think it's okay now though.

We're babysitting my niece (DH's niece) today and tomorrow (she's 2). DH asked me this morning whether we should cancel since I wasn't feeling well, but I told him it would probably be good practice for if we EVER want another one

 

[aileymouse]

Hope you are ok itsychick. I haven' tfelt nauseous at all.

Docs think it's lebyrinthitis, but isn't too sure so doesn't want to prescribe anything. So I've got to see how it goes and go back if it gets worse.

I hate being pregnant.

 

[Itsychik]

@ aileymouse- seriously... pregnancy is NOT on my list of favourite things either. I actually used to have this 'picture' in my head of what it would be/feel like to be pregnant and I thought I would love it. Maybe that's why I dislike it so much... because it's totally opposite of what I expected!

We were visiting friends last night who had their baby on Thursday (so he was a day old) and he was SO cute! Seriously, the most adorable newborn I've ever seen (also big... 4 kilo's / ~9lbs). I just kept thinking, "this is the light at the end of the tunnel!!" Ah well... almost halfway there!

Hope you ladies are feeling a bit better now

 

[Starglow]

Aw I agree ..... Hope you're feeling better today.

One week tomorrow till my scan. Luckily I was able to move most of my work that day so I can take everything in. I have a friend staying the weekend before so I won't be obsessing about the scan which is fab.


Thought - funny how all bouncers seem to have buttons attached to vibrate your baby!!!! Arg. I just want a cosy simple bouncer. Most are either over the top or so basic they look painful lol. I'll have another look today.

I'm getting neutral things cause I do not want to have to buy all this stuff again lol

See you all later. Xxxx have a great day

hi everyone..
aileymouse - i hope you're feeling better, saw your dizzy post on the main board.. And Itsy you too, wow thats scary! Hugs to you too xx

i'm also buying neutral things, well for the cot at least, I really like those colours and they also match my room (!) where baby will be for the first 6 months..

Starglow i'm not sure re antenatal classes, i'd like to find out too - i know its my 2nd but its been soooo long, 8 years, and it's DH's first so i'm wondering if we should look into it.

Did you girls see over on the main board FLGAL82 had her gender scan prediction wrong?!? remember she told us she's having a boy, well she's having a girl now!! I'll have to go change it on the first page... I hope mine was right!!

Mama Afrika only 3 more days til your scan woohoo!!

5 more sleeps for me til my anomaly scan.. am a bit nervous but i'm sure everything is fine.. positive thinking and all that!

xx

 

[lilly77]

[aileymouse]

Hi, feeling a bit better today....just hope it doesn't return again

Can't believe they got her scan wrong! Did she pay for a gender scan? I would be getting my money back!!

With my first I bought big stuff in neutral so that it can be used again. So now I only need the pram!

xxx

 

[strawberry19]

hiya ladies just a quick pop in ever so busy glad to se everyone is okay but shocked they got FLGAL scan wrong! excited for my scan!!

 

[Starglow]

Great day was a fault with our x display pram so they have exchanged it for a brand new one in black. Black frame and seat part. Got it for £200 instead of £329 - great for brand new. I love it too.

Then bought baby bath for £5 in ikea and really nice White deep chest of drawers there for £40! In our room for now but for all the baby gear.

As we have to go back in two weeks to collect the pram we will look at buying gender things like curtains, light shade, lamp, changing mat, blankets , wall stickers etc. Today was the most fun baby shopping day we've had so far

Feeling pretty off this weekend. Swollen glands etc but just getting on with things. Tummy was feeling very uncomfortable this morning and my boobs just ache at times. But still I'm a happy bunny.

Xxxxxx

 

[lolley]

we brought a chest of drawers yesterday too, they are in the boys room until we move but plenty of room for baby clothes

mil and fil ordered our cotbed and matress last night, reaaly pleased with it

I think I'll focus on all baby house things first. Then when it's all sorted ( decorating other rooms too) I'll look at hospital bag and all that goes with that. X
