LB...sorry, you can rely on me to be mumpy and moany...just feeling a bit down during AF. Its been quite a painful one too .

We're off to Portugal for a week, kind of nervous about taking DS but also not, IYKWIM. I am very excited about it all though and know that the holiday and the running are what's keeping me going at the moment. And DS and DH of course.

My friends used to live near Leeds Castle, though they are now in deeper Kent. I've never been there but have heard its very lovely. Sorry for your bottom being sore! You'll have to get out more often, it will be great for labour .

How are things with you at the moment?

lardybump · 02/10/2008 20:02

I went back to Leeds Castle today (the joys of having a yearly pass, wonder when the novelty will wear off?) with dd and we fed the ducks and had a picnic etc. I did a lot of walking though and now feel like someone is kicking me up the bum with boots on......

lardybump · 02/10/2008 19:48

LaTour I am so sorry!!!

I think I know who you are now!! Where are you going on holiday??

LaTourEiffel · 02/10/2008 19:14

Evening all - I only seem to get on during the evening at the moment as I'm just sooo busy at work!

Very exciting! DS' passport arrived today! Hurrah! We're all going on a ...autumn holiday! Yay!

Hi Playing, good to hear from you, glad things are going OK with you. LB, DD sounds very cute!

NJ, glad you got the message across about your details, they probably wouldn't apologise too profusely just in case anything does go wrong and you try to recover any losses from them - if they keep their distance its easier to argue with you in the future - bit cynical perhaps. As you say, you'll need to keep a close eye on your account. It might also be worth checking with your card provider and getting a new card though, if anyone has got the details and it gets investigated, they'll find out that you knew your details were potentially in the public domain which might negate any protection you would otherwise get from your card provider. PITA but just thought I'd mention it.

I should have been 14 weeks this week .

lardybump · 02/10/2008 18:40

No we wont I dont want to know..... Night diege....

Diege · 02/10/2008 18:36

Great bargain Glask . We are also huge lumpyn fans in this house!
Hi Playing - so glad ms seems to be abating .
Hi LB! Can't believe how quickly your pregnancy is going. Will you be finding out the flavour at your 20 week scan?
Right, that's all from me, early night I think. Speak tomorrow x

lardybump · 02/10/2008 17:24

arr I just typed out a huge post and then mumsnet went down and I have lost it....

In short had mw today and while on bed listening to hp she asked dd where the baby was. DD pointed to my tummy and said in there!!

Only a week until my 20 week scan and i have all next week off as holiday so should wizz by...

Hi to everyone

istinkhavingaboyoragirl · 02/10/2008 17:21

glas - sure that time will go so quick it will be your scan before you know it
pub lunch sounds good
cot mobile is sweet luv lumpy the heffalump
i am convined this one is a boy 2 fri tom

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 02/10/2008 16:30

haha!! i said i wouldn't be buying much till after my scan- i just won a cot mobile on ebay!!! here it is

what a bargain!! can't wait to get it!! Hoping i've also won a car seat this evening too.

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 02/10/2008 16:02

playing- i missed you on the last page.... i wont be buying anything for the right sex until after the 20wk scan, but it'd be nice to know if they can tell whats going on inside!!

glad you're starting to feel better, no MS is good, but i know how bad heartburn can be, and headaches are awful even without being pregnant!!- but if it makes it any better for you- i'm already suffering from heartburn like mad!! aswell as still having pretty bad MS most days!! I'm sucking renne (sp?) peppermint tablets to help it. Did have the chews for DD but can't find them in my local chemist and dont like gaviscon!!

Heebeejeebee · 02/10/2008 16:00

Diege - I don't get many symptoms other than CM. If i'm looking for it, I can usually rustle up a pain in one side, otherwise I depend heavily on my cb monitor!

NJ - leather is easy to keep clean - we use either a damp cloth or baby wipes, so if when I manage to get myself pregnant I should at least have plenty of them hanging around!

Ses - hope you're installed in your new house now. I have to say I hated the unpacking more than the packing..

Glask - I remember that 20 days is a lifetime when your pregnant. Hope they can see!

Playingthe9monthwait · 02/10/2008 15:53

I am finally feeling more human now thanks for asking Nat. Seem to have lost the MS finally, hope it stays away. Just have congestion, headaches and heartburn now . Still anythings better than MS. Went to the gp yesterday about the headaches and he was very nice but of course completely useless, at least I got to hear baby on the doppler again!

Ses - am 17+5 today so things are moving along. Got my 20wk scan on the 17th and am looking forward to it. No idea whether I want to find out the sex though, I really can't decide.

Glask - oo good luck with your scan. No idea whether they will look at sex for you. I'm sure they could tell if baby is in the right position but whether they will want to risk it is another matter.

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 02/10/2008 15:40

i'm 99% certain its a blue flavour anyway... so only really wanting them to confirm it for me!!... they did with the other 2 no probs, but i am almost certain that they were at the 20 week scans... DS might have been a bit earlier as i remember they 'double checked' at a later scan... dont think i had any scans after 20wks with either!!

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 02/10/2008 15:37

well there's no harm in asking is there!! i wont get too exited but could be an added plus to waiting an extra couple of weeks than expected!!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 02/10/2008 15:34

It depends, if the baby happened to be in the perfect position for sexing, and if the sonographer felt like telling you, then yes, you could find out the sex. Don't get too excited though, my sonographer wouldn't even look at 13+4 (I think it was 4, might have been 6... can't remember!)

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 02/10/2008 15:31

do you think they'd be able to see the sex at 14+2?? i've seen on a pregnancy site (were i see what's happening inside each week) that at 12 weeks it says 'in only a couple of weeks an ultrasound could determine the sex for you'.... you think 14 weeks will be far enough???

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 02/10/2008 15:21

Aww Glask, y'know there are good things about having a late first scan, firstly, you get really good pics of the baby. Secondly, it isn't as long between the scans. And thirdly, you don't have to drink quite so much water before hand.

Besdies 20 days will go really quickly, you'll see, it won't be long till you're saying "Oh 124 week scan tomorrow"!

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 02/10/2008 15:17

tink- i prefer the middle one!!

just been out for lunch with DH and the kids to our local pub... ordered loads but i was so full after my starter i hardly managed anything else!! everything is getting cramped up inside me and i can't eat like i normally can!!

anyway NJ- agree it was wrong of your details to be on that invoice, glad you go an apology fast, may be only a few words but at least its brought it to their attention!! And no i haven't yet got any maternity dungaree's- hope to get some after my 20 week scan as i'll be almost full size by then (as in i have tons more growing to do yet)

I got my scan date through but i'm not so happy... its the 22nd oct!!! thats a whole 20 days away!!!!! i'll be over 14wks by then but on the other hand only 20 days till i see my little baby!!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 02/10/2008 15:14

Hope you've got the keys by now Ses

Tink, I love the rainforest one, it's a bargain as well! Mind they're all nice

istinkhavingaboyoragirl · 02/10/2008 15:02

oh good ses happy unpacking

i have been browsing on argos website looking @ getting :-

www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3480555/Trail/searchtext>COT+MOBILES.htm

www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3486511/Trail/searchtext>COT+MOBILES.htm

or

www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3486559/Trail/searchtext>COT+MOBILES.htm

think i like the top 2 best.

they both have remote controls to control the music 2 which is cool

SesHasapinkline · 02/10/2008 14:56

V handy!

Well I'm hoping to have keys in the next 15 mins so will update you either later or tomorrow once we're in!

OP posts:
NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 02/10/2008 14:51

Yep, and then you'll put something in a place, and then decide that actually it looks better somewhere else, it's not too bad when it is a vase or a photo or something, but when it is sofas and triple wardrobes it's a different story!

I suppose I had better get ready to go and pick DS1 up, t'is a good job the school is only across the road!

SesHasapinkline · 02/10/2008 14:47

I think the unpacking is more time consuming as it's easy to try and make sure everything is perfectly clean and in the exact right place before it goes away! V easy to waste time in pursuit of perfection!

Hope your painting plans work out and that DH doesn't get called out too much!

OP posts:
NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 02/10/2008 14:40

Very true, the un-packing is worse than the packing IMO! Having said that there is something quite satisfying about getting the last thing out of a box!

LOL We still have stuff in boxes (boxes are in the loft) from when we moved here, 5 years ago

SesHasapinkline · 02/10/2008 14:37

Already been to Costa for a hot chocolate and had quick look round shops! I'm ok - nice to have a sit down actually before the mad unpacking starts! Guess I should make the most of it!
