We made the trimesters pass quickly!

[Mummy to be x]

I found that too, when we go In the shop I pick things up that we don't even need, plus if I go to the supermarket hungry the trolley ends up too full xx

:wave:

A lot of nesting as been going on!

OH has gone back to work now so it's back to reality

His Christmas present came while he was here and I think it's too small!! I couldn't measure his rest or he'd of known lol

Jaydens stocking presents are all sorted now so it's on with the other big gifts!

And how have you all been?!

I'm just munching my pomegranate and watching miracle babies! x

 

[ab75]

Your very healthy ub! I've just eaten a big bag of sensations! !
Can you exchange his present for a longer one? It was a chain you were getting, right??
Aawww glad you are getting there with your shopping. I spent my child benefit on more presents. I need to stop now lol. Thats me skint anyway until I start getting mat pay lol xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Yeah was just going to say could u get a bigger size?

Wahoooo for shopping glad your getting sorted

I was supposed to watch miracle babies but I've set it to record. I'm laying in bed now lol xx

They only did a 22cm. He had Jays glow stick bracelet on last night so I measured it against that. It's going to be a snug fit but I think he could get it on, I just need to go into town now and find somewhere to engrave it with S, R, J, A-J. I think I'll get him a couple more bits because he needs clothes.

Jayden was so much better going to nursery today, straight in and played outside. First thing he said when he looked outside was FRIENDS!!

I have no idea what else to get Jay apart from his scooter which his Daddy is getting. He's got his train table, play doh and his Abadas DVD. He ended up having his talking Yojojo, oops I want to get him thinks he actually likes rather than going out and buying things he knows nothing about

and I love my pomegranates! Some nights I can eat 3 I need to look for my scales too, I still can't find them!!!

OH put baby girls cot up while he was here too, it's lovely seeing it up! x

 

[ab75]

Wow you are getting well organised,cot built already. lol i have washed all my moses basket bedding and hood etc but have still to put it all together. Might do it today actually when dh wakes up. He is going to take the girls out a walk with the dog so that'll give me peace to do it. I'll post pics after i do it.

That's what I have done with the girls,bought them things that I know will be played with. no point wasting money on random stuff. What about In the night garden toys. Zara keeps picking up the wooly spider from wooly and tig every time we go to tesco,lol,but i think it'll just be a waste of money. I might get the small one for in her stocking xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

That's exactly what I've done with Madeleine this year. Last yr I bought stuff she never played with so this time I've got stuff I know she will love, Madeleine has the wooly spider she adores that programme and always asks for it when she looks in argos.

I need to start washing baby clothes and things now it's getting so close xx

 

[UniqueBeauty]

Haha I don't have a moses basket yet so I wanted it up to make it feel more 'real' so to speak. I am getting some cot bedding tomorrow and hopefully found a bouncer chair that I can get. OH hasn't got anything for baby girl yet, it's me that done all the looking and buying so he can buy the pram, simple as that.

I have the breast pump and clothes but I think I'm going to give MAM a try this time so need to get some bottles on Monday!

Is anyone elses babys movements reduced? she hasn't been moving as much as she normally does but when she does move it feels like it's ripping my skin, she seems very cramped lol

I found my scales today and braved them!! I closed my eyes and I stood on them, looked down slowly and it was on 12 stone! I've gained 26lbs so far. What have you all gained? x

 

[ab75]

I've put on 30lbs!!!! Eeeekkkkk!!!!

I still get some wriggly movement but not as much. Mine are sorer now, like he's trying to escape lol.

I still have to buy bottles but not in any rush to do so. Think my steriliser must still be up the loft and so is the baby bath. I'll get dh to get them down nearer the time or once he's born.
Seen the carrier I want to get and the changing bag so I'll order them next time I get paid xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

I Daren't even get on the scales, but now you've mentioned it I'm intrigued as to what I weigh now, last time I weighed at 24 weeks and I weighed nearly 13 stone!! So that was a gain of over two stone, dread to think what I weigh now.

Yeah my movements are more like roles and limbs sticking out now he feels real squished in there lol x

 

[UniqueBeauty]

Glad I'm not the only one, was going to ring for reduced movements tomorrow it was still the same.
My start weight was 10 stone, I told my Nan and she said that's too heavy for me? 10 stone is fine?

Just placed an Asda order because I really cannot be bothered to walk it it's just annoying trying to add it up to 25 pounds! x

 

[Mummy to be x]

Ten stone is fine! How tall are you?

I always do food shopping online now, my bak really hurts even after walking for a few minutes its terrible, so online shopping is my best friend at the moment lol x

 

[ab75]

I would love to be 10 stone!! Not even going to say what I was but I am 5ft 9 lol xx

 

[Carlyp1990]

Last time I weighed myself I think I'd gained roughly 3-4 lbs but it was different scales to what I originally used so might not be accurate. That was about 3 weeks ago so I'm unsure what ill be at now. I think I weighed about 10 stone 4 before and im 5 ft 4 fingers crossed I'll weigh less after this baby is born!
We went to iceland this afternoon so that oh could carry the bags to the car. I hate paying for delivery when I shop online because asda is round the corner xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Oh I love Iceland you get some great bargains in there!

 

[UniqueBeauty]

My Asdas round the corner too but when I walk now it feels like little lady is going to fall out of my foof

I'm 5ft 6 so I thought that weight was fine! x

 

[Mummy to be x]

That's definitely fine UB! Before pregnant I was about 10st 10lbs and I'm only 5ft, if I'd of been taller that would of been an ok weight, so I'd say your perfectly fine with that weight UB xx

 

[Swtpinkbabi]

Hey ladies, just poppin in. I was worried about reduced movements also, but Ive figured now that he pretty much moves less during the day. He is very punchy in the evening especially if I play some music for him. As far as weight, at my appointment last week I still hadnt gained anything. But he is definitely gaining and my measurements are on target so she was fine with it. My first shower is this Sunday, I'm so excited to see how it will turn out. My coworkers are throwing one on the 17th and offered to buy the stroller and car seat, so that will be great. Now I'm just looking forward to my growth scan in a couple of weeks.

 

[Carlyp1990]

I don't think I was overweight before I just wasn't comfortable because I weighed more than I had done before (plus I had a few wobbly bits )
I get that feeling UB! It drives me mad, or I need a wee as soon as I start walking anywhere

What's everyone's plans for bonfire night? We have a big firework display that's free and literally round the corner so we're going to that. It started at 5:30 with live music etc but the fireworks don't start till 7:30 so we're going about 7:15

 

[Mummy to be x]

That sounds great Carly!! We aren't doing anything tonight because OH is working and Madeleine is shattered from nursery, she's fast asleep in bed bless her. Enjoy your night

Madeleines come home from nursery today and as I got her dressed for bed I noticed a huge bruise on her leg, she told me that a boy called Ellis at nursery pushed her off the bike, I'm so angry because nursery haven't told me this, I'm getting quite fed up of them now. Xx
