Hello ladies,
Well I too have been absent for a little while now, manage to get on the forum at least every other day but usually just read and run lol have been so busy recently, i wish there was more time in the day so i could be catching up with everyone and sharing all that has been going on with me.
I have my scan on may 17th and I cannot wait! but i am sure the time will fly around soon enough. This pregnancy seems to be flying so fast, i cannot believe I am 11 weeks already, looking back it feels like yesterday we found out we were expecting our second.
We brought a doppler and it is WONDERFUL! I seriously recommend the HiBebe Doppler, its nice and sensitive, took us an hour to find the babies heartbeat but now i find it first time every time and it is so reassuring to be able to have something here at home. I brought it second hand on Buy it now on ebay, it was cheaper than the ending bid price for a second hand HiBebe, so i figure I will sell it again on BIN towards the end of the pregnancy and I will have not lost any money.
I have been really naughty and brought a couple of baby bits, including a bouncer but now I am waiting until we find out the sex of the baby to get the rest. I am now even thinking that some of the bits I have brought unisex will do for friends who have babies on the way... ooops!
I cannot wait to buy the PRAM!!!!!
So excited
We are taking a holiday in the next couple of months, we are going to turkey and booking last minute and will probably be our last holiday for a couple of years and our sons first so will be a really special holiday. Has anyone ever been to Lykia World Village? Its supposed to be reallllly good for kids and families so we are leaning towards booking something there.
In other good news, LO has been 2 weeks now dry through the night! So proud of him and he literally did it ALL on this own without us having to push him into anything, we dont even have to get him up when we go to bed or in the night. Thats one out... and one in nappies
Hes really excited to be a big brother, its really cute and he has been on his best behaviour... i wonder how long it will last?!
Ive had a good pregnancy on the whole, not as plain sailing as with my LO, had heartburn, nausea and MS but figured I need to eat to stop the MS and take my pregnacare Vitamin in the afternoon else I am sick as hell. TMI, i was pretty constipated but that seems to have balanced itself again.
We are really looking forward to another winter baby. Winter babies are the best!! You get to stay indoors and everyone has to come to you, everyone is all snuggly indoors and you get to put your new baby in the cutest fluffiest Snowsuits (already got mine LMAO, was in mamas and papas and saw 'The One' LOL) Then when summer comes around they can enjoy a dip in the paddling pool and you do not have to worry to much about being out for an entire day and temps just a sun shader and plenty of water. I dont know if its really better but I think i would have been a hermit for the entire summer, had i just had a newborn... also because I had a bit of muffin from my loving left if you know what i mean lol!
Hope everyone is doing well, so cute to see all the scan piccies. We are a large group arent we!!!!
Its so sad to read of the losses
big hugs to all those people.
