New thread

Hello !
MOB cant believe you are so close to meeting your boys shock Yep definately loving this heat hmm lol I think its actually trying to kill me!!
If you have a fan put a big bowl of water with lots of ice cubes in and place it infront of the fan, it really does help smile

Jollybear Loving the washing up bowl idea smile and can totally understand the sunburn worries,DS gets plastered in f50 every 1/2 hour and must wear a sunhat and long sleeves when playing outside!
MOB just read your post - OMG your babies could be here so soon!!!! Am getting so excited for you (they must not want their mama to suffer in this heat any more wink).
Hello ladies!

Apologies for lack of posting - i have spent the past few days in a sweaty heap, only moving when necessary!

Bucky Hope you are having a lovely time in Austria. Come back and start us a new thread - it has to be you!

RFN2&3 Crumbs, it's getting close for you as well! Assume you are loving the heat as much as me at the moment hmm.

MrsH Naughty courgette getting you worried! It's awful when they do that. Glad she got wriggling again.

Caitni Sounds like you are being very restrained about continuing to POAS. I'm impressed. Don't think that lack of MS at this stage means there's only one - i didn't have any at 5 weeks... I also had bleeding gums early on...

GG Sorry - i have been slow to respond about the CD. I am a bit concerned it may be the same one / woman (it's called making babies and has a horseshoe on the front). I'm more than happy to send it to you though, just let me know. I am so envy that you saw all that fantastic tennis!! I was glued to the TV. I really think he can do it this year. LOL at Lewis & Jenson!! I think some people wouldn't be surprised if i did call them that!!! Good luck trying to hide your drug habit in the hotel!!

EI Lovely, summery new name grin Will you go and test woman!!!!

JB LOL at DD in the washing up bowl!

PnM How are things (and the hormones) smile

Thanks for the suggestions of big knickers post cs! Large quantities have been bought & packed! Had my last scan this week - all looking fine, and both breech, so definitely on for the cs. It's a week tomorrow shock shock I'm not sure the babies are going to wait that long though, as i've been losing a lot of the "plug", especially over the past 24hrs. Watch this space!

Wooo GG at wimbledon! It was a v exciting match. Does your friend know about the IVF? It might be hard to hide a fridge hmm. Cardiff is such a fun place, DH went to uni there (where we met when I was visiting a friend) so has lots of lovely memories for me grin.

ei Love the name change. 17DPO and no testing shock. Nerves of steel!

caitni Honestly, get a non-wired bra and sleep in it. Keeping the girls under control at all times does help with the pain. I didn't get any nausea until 6 weeks and boy, was I sick! On the, ahem, blockage front, try some all bran or prune juice, mmm yum. You can't take most sorts of laxative whilst preggers.

R4n2&3 Ahh now very sweet. Hope DS has a lovely birthday.

DD and I are spending lots of time indoors as I'm scared of her getting burnt blush. She's been sat in the washing up bowl in the shade today! Only the best for my daughter wink. MNing whilst she has a nap!

hey ladiessmile
R4N2&3 wow how exciting that you only have 7 weeks maxsmile i ordered cheapo tests and 2 CBD's as they were on offersmile and also one of the saliva ov predictors just in case so the jiffy bag must be HUGE!!grin
caitni lovely symptoms there ladysmile maybe its boys in there as from most accounts of preggos having boys there is no MSsmile but there again its early days and you will be wishing you could take that comment back after 3/4 weeks of no food and constant vomminggrin i cant wait for my turn for the MSsmile
xx ei xx
Caitni I had no morning sickness with either pregnancy and the only real symptom I had this time was extreme tiredness wink I agree with your DH grin

GG Sounds like a bit of a hassle being a legal druggie lol hope you have a great time and relax in time for EC smile

ButterflEI Great new name, cant believe you have resisted testing shock just how many tests have you ordered if they dont fit
through the letter box??!! Wishing you luck for testing x

Well I am being killed of by this heatwave sad I cant go out after midday unless I know there will be extreme air con lol.

I have a maximum of 7 weeks to go now and am getting really excited (and nervous lol) I wasnt going to bother with going home outfits this time but then I saw the cutest little outfits today and had to buy them wink
Need to have words with my DS though its his 3rd Birthday tomorrow and he is obsessed with the number 3 so has decided that we are now having 3 babies shock smile think he may be disappointed lol
Oh and JollyBear my scan is on 14 July so still a loong way off (days are slowly ticking by though smile). My DH is still convinced that it's twins (has been saying that since we had two blasts put back) but the lack of MS makes me think it's just the one smile. Hope your DD is enjoying the sunshine smile. I bet she has some super cute sun hats wink.
Oh ButterflEi I LOVE the new name grin. And lady, you need to get some tests cos I cannot stand the tension! Am fervently hoping it's good news grin. Also the sooner you know then the sooner you can get the medication you need smile.

GG am so so envy of you getting to wave the saltire at Murray's match on Monday! Twas great to watch on telly and I'm rooting for him smile. Good luck tomorrow morning (what an early start [ouch]) - can't wait to hear how your lovely eggs are developing <<caitni massages her temples and sends GorgonsGin eggy vibes>>. Hope you get a good haul smile. What a hassle that your stim drugs need to be refrigerated - mine weren't, only the pregnyl trigger shot - but the ice packs should help. The hen weekend should be the perfect way to get a bit of R&R before egg collection winksmile.

So nowt new here...still no MS (and still kind of wishing I had some blush) but had to have some tea this morning (first caffeine in aaaaages) as am so bloody knackered. Falling asleep on the sofa (and sometimes at lunchtimes shock) is my new hobby...my boobs are so sore I'm tempted to sleep in a bra hmm...Also have bleeding gums, which my younger sister had in the early days with both of her pregnancies. TMI alert but am also quite constipated...to the point of considering looking into some sort of laxative blush. Can't shake the sort of Karen Carpenter connotations of laxatives but I think I need something in spite of gobbling loads of fibre blush...

If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
