mines next thurs- will find out if they can see anything- not sure if they will with my size - my recent scans at the epau were really clear and good tho.

Samie- will my size interfere with the position of the womb or atleast where i think it is?! as im so big pre pregnancy my stomach is so droopy and normally have a large apron so my belly button prob isnt where i think it all is if that makes sense. Im still feeling 'movement'- i think- but its still very low nowhere anywhere near belly button yet.

when i ask mw about size related things she doesnt like to really discuss it and sort of says well you are one of our people and we look after you the same as anyone else which is nice of her but i still have worries and questions!

hope betty had such a nice time shopping-im back to work next week but off the fri after scan so hope to go out then.

btw- asda had some cure rompers today £6
kermit the frog
tazmanian devil which said'little taz big trouble'
cue one with the kittie from aristocrats. Thought they were sweet

Ive started a list! so far i need my silvercross surf in red with a red maxi cosi pebble and two isofix bases oh and some sheets for the cotbed! not written a proper one jsut things i like so far!

can i ask a really silly q how do you put baby to sleep (that sounds really wrong!) put them to bed!

We are going to try and go straight to the cotbed as the moses baskets are costly for what they are and i think they may be kitty attractive on a big scale. I get the fact I need a sheet on the matress and I have to put feet to the base of the cot and dont use a duvet or pillows. I dont know should i make a 'nest' with some cushions about halfway so the cot isnt so big for them? also what do i do to keep them warm? just wrap them up in blankets-can I use those swaddle ones that velcro in or do I use the ones with holes or should I get those sleeping bag things?just feels odd to wrap them up and abandon them in the cot probably as I like to be tucked up and curled up and hate the bed to myself feeling i assume everyone is like that!

sorry thats a daft q and i prob should know this but i dont wnat to just rely on MIL as shes still of the- put them in the bottom drawer mentalty!

Size won't interfere as such you just wouldn't be able to use the belly button as a landmark. The uterus is generally a cm a week pregnant from the pubic bone but with the apron that will add cms so it's difficult to say where you would feel it. Because you haven't felt it before I'd prob say you would struggle to find it but you can try by using the side of your hand and work from the middle of your tum under the ribs and work downwards until you feel resistance like a flat shelf.....sounds easy but it's not that easy lol!

Movements prob are still low you won't Feel them higher until bump is bigger.

I'd go for the cotbed straight away Sophia hated the Moses basket so slept in it about 4 times!! Can't help on putting them to bed because she still goes to bed with us and sleeps in the bed most the time, she occasionally goes in her crib. We haven't put her in the cot yet because that's in her own room and Im too scared to leave her alone as she so little.

I'd defo reccommend swaddling if baby lets you. Sophia hates having her arms trapped so we couldn't swadle so she would startle herself awake every 2 mins.....she's not much better yet lol

We got one of the sleep bags for her for when she's in the crib otherwise she's under our quilt and I sleep at head level with her so she doesn't go under it.

I wouldn't build a nest just put baby to the bottom with covers at chest height so the risk of suffocation is reduced!

Hey ladies,

Ive had positive opk for 3 days in a row is this normal? I use the smiley face ones so it's not a case of me having to compare lines or anything. Just wondered what you thought and if it happened to any of you?

 

[Honeybear1976]

They are not stupid qs, we either use a blanket folded into a triangle and wrap him up like a cone of chips but we also have a growbag if we want to use that. Dont like the blankets with holes in as babies get their fingers caught in them and can pull it up to their face. x

 

[Samie18]

Mine was pos for 3 days too but neg next day. Prolonged pos can be an indicator for pcos.

 

[AmeliaLily]

Thanks Samie, I had a scan on my ovaries last October for an unexplained pain and a possible cyst but there was nothing there on the scan. So it can't be pcos can it?

 

[Samie18]

Wouldnt have thought so by prolonged I mean weeks.... it will prob be neg tomorrow xx

 

[AmeliaLily]

Ok thanks Samie!

Hello all,
I was starting to feel worried, but have calmed down after reading (some of) this thread!
I was put on cerazette a year ago and taken off marvelon due to suffering from migraines. I never had a period on it but did have huge acne cysts from it
Myself and hubby have decided to NTNP, so i finished my last cerzaette pack on the 12th Jan (also moved house that weekend -bad choice)!
No sign of AF, but have had loads of side effects - really sore boobs, bloated, moody. Also had a stomach bug last week and a cold this week! Feeling very sorry for myself!
Feel much better after reading this thread and know not to expect AF for a while. Good to know other people are going through the same thing!
