Congrats girls xxxx

 

[Tink1o5]

Widger- Im ok. I have sever hypermesis (sp). My OB said im the worst case she has seen in years. On a lighter note.. i have a in depth US next week on wends to check for deformalitys and i should be able to find out the gender.

 

[Rebaby]

Congratulations bk!

Just been catching up with everyone on here- sorry to hear about the hyperemesis Tink, i had it with Toby, although was extremely lucky in many ways as it didn't start until 12 weeks and the worst of it was over by 20 weeks. I was really worried about having it again this time but in fact i've been amazingly lucky and hardly been sick at all I hope it settles for you. Good luck for the scan!

So glad everything is going well widger

How's the weight loss going dawny? I'm rooting for you.

Dante Saul Chillitupa?????

Fantastic name choice When i fell pregnant with Toby i told OH right away that if baby was a boy he'd be called Dante and if it was a girl she'd be called Esme...obviously it didn't work out like that as we ended up with a Tobias! But i still love the name!

We're all ok here, i have finally finished work and am 'relaxing' (for that read: "getting things organised for new baby, spending too much time online, and freaking out about giving birth" )

Sorry if i've missed anyone- i hope everyone else is well

 

[Widger]

Wow Rebaby - can't believe you are 34 weeks already!! Amazing. How are you feeling?

Oh Tink you poor thing. Can't believe that your sickness is still here. Same as my friend. She is a few days behind me and has not stopped being sick poor thing.

I have my scan later today ladies. I'm very nervous

 

[Chilli]

Wow rebaby - you're right behind me! Glad all is well

Widger - fingers crossed that all is wonderful at scan today - please let us know

Tink I don't know what that is but sounds bad and hope it's better soon.

Hi to everyone else

I am ENORMOUS and amuse myself by getting stuck on my sofa and literally not being able to get up - hilarious!!! Trying not to think about the next bit too much and just praying it all goes well

 

[Widger]

It went so well girls. I can't actually believe it. Due date 22nd March.

Here is pic. I have no idea on gender. Never understood those nub guesses

So so happy

Sorry, very self indulgent message here

Chilli - I'm defo bigger this time at 12 weeks than last time so god knows what I'll be like at your week

 

[dawny690]

Glad it went so well Widger I'm going to guess girl from the pic but could be wrong xxxx

 

[RobenR]

Congrats BK! That's great news!

So glad to see so many ladies coming to the end. I am still at work and probably will be right up to the end, but tomorrow I am hoping to go on half days due to complications with the pregnancy which are scaring hubby to death. I am just exhausted and sweaty most of the time, but I do enjoy watching the bump distort itself in odd ways and feel like I am re-enacting "Alien."

Still hanging in there!

 

[Tink1o5]

Widger - Im going to guess boy

Its amazing that so many of you ladies are at the end of your pregnancies already. eeeek were gonna have a bunch of mama's in labor soon!

 

[Rebaby]

Wow Rebaby - can't believe you are 34 weeks already!! Amazing. How are you feeling?

I'm feeling fine thanks for asking

I'm just starting to get that antsy feeling now, not quite 'nesting' as my house is still a mess but having that constant niggly feeling that i SHOULD be doing something in preparation for baby. Driving OH a bit mad actually as he's on his holidays at the minute and has one more week before he's back to uni and lectures and assignments and a placement in a substance misuse clinic and then becoming a Daddy for the second time etc, and i am ruining his chances of a peaceful relaxing time by constantly thinking of things for him to do- like "Oooh, do you think you could just..."

Congratulations on your fantastic scan. I have zero clue with nub guesses and skull guesses and all that but i will say boy!

Hope you're able to reduce to half days Roben i'm done with work now and the sense of relief is huge.

 

[Widger]

Roben - Great to hear from you. Not long to go for you either xx

 

[Chilli]

Yay for happy scans Widger!!!! We love em!

Rebaby - the only thing that is stopping me from committing to Dante is that I'm worried lots of people in UK won't recognise it and poor little chap will spend his whole life spelling out both fore and surname - what do you reckon? Tell your OH it could be worse - he could be married to me who spends all day looking at all the things that need to be lifted/moved/got down from the attic etc, only to hit him with a list as soon as he gets through the door - but dear God if I have to ask him to take the bloomin suitcase out from under the stairs I'm going to loose it

Roben - hope the complications don't come to anything

 

[Peach Blossom]

Hey ladies.

So excited that so many of you are getting so close to having your bubbas! Widger, glad the scan went well. Roben, take it easy! Hope the complications aren't too serious.

Chilli, I sent the book today... sorry for the delay! Most of it will be irrelevant to you, but there is some good visualisation stuff and some massages for your OH to do for you!

 

[Chilli]

Thanks Peach - how's things with you and work etc?

 

[Peach Blossom]

I'm so so... Dr prescribed me anti depressants today... I've been struggling a bit with OH being away so much with work. I'm not sure how I feel about taking the anti depressants though. Work has been ok. Leaving Lil was tough, but she's having a lovely time at nursery and with the childminder!

 

[Chilli]

Oh hun I'm sorry to hear that - being alone so much with a little one can really take it out of you, especially after the truama of the last couple of years. I came close to taking anti-ds last year, but it seemed like such a long term thing and I hadn't quite got there yet. You'l know if you really need them. Have you been able to talk to a counselor (not sure if that's the right spelling)?

 

[Peach Blossom]

The Dr said that they offer counselling to mild cases and she classes me as moderate... Gonna talk to my mum about it at the weekend.

 

[Widger]

Oh Peach. So sorry you are feeling low

It is something that I feel so grateful for, having hubby who works reasonable hours. Seriously, don't feel bad as it is so stressful trying to juggle everything. I think even though hubby gets home just as Daniel is going to bed or been put to bed, it is just the fact he is there to talk to. Is there any way that your husband could change his working hours/commitments?

Hoping that talking to your mum helps sort things out in your mind and remember we are all here for you xxx
