Ok Ladies... new thread, since the old one was getting too long and dragging my computer (and Kat's) down with it!

MrsD - cant believe you are 30 weeks already! So you found that cutting out the lactose helps? It will be almost a week for me and I have noticed some improvement, but not a lot. Of course, he is still getting a milk-based formula supplement to the BFing. I am going to switch to a soy formula and see if it makes a difference as well. Until then... God give me strength!!! LOL

Thank you all,
I am just back from the EPU but it was a waste of time. I had a scan, but it was "unclear", they could see the gestational sac but nothing else. ARGGGG. I have to go back tomorrow for another scan. The Doc just said, relax, everything looks ok...... I know I am not easy to scan, but,,,,,, why?

katnkittens · 20/02/2010 22:47

(((rainbow)))
I had spotting in this pregnancy at about 7/8 weeks. I had a scan and everything was great

I also had a stupid amount of cramping which was very painful. I was convinced nothing good could come of it on a number of occasions but it always settled down eventually.

Keeping everything crossed for you.

Rainbow, rest loads.x I hope all is ok with your beany. Thinking of you.xxx

BB, how's your littley doing?

Steph, how are things settling now?

K, enjoy your appointment, hope it goes well. Mine always measure ahead too lol. Samuel was 5 weeks ahead at one point...but he was big lol!

babyblue4 · 20/02/2010 19:04

Rainbow - keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Hope your little bean is ok. Make sure to keep us posted.

Hi all,

I have had cramping for last three days, and this morning had some spotting. I am just resting loads today and hopeing and praying that it is not all over. I have a scan booked for Tuesday, so I guess I will know then.

katnkittens · 18/02/2010 23:08

Hiya just checking in.

Good luck loopy My DH went through moments of dobt, I found seduction helped a lot

I had a consultant appointment on Monday, I'm measuring 2 weeks ahead of my dates, yikes, hoping this baby isn't too big!

How are you rainbow?

Rainbow - Isn't it funny how fast we pop the more kids we have?! I was already wearing Maternity clothes at 9 weeks!! LOL. With my first, I didnt wear mat clothes til I was in my sixth month! Thats how long I was able to hide the pregnancy at work as well!! Never mind... my girlfriend is 4 months along with her first, and I look bigger at 6 months POST PARTUM!!! LOL

katnkittens · 12/02/2010 19:09

Oh rainbow, I'm so happy for you. I bet you can't wait for the 12 week mark! I know how much it drags.....

I tried to keep Lily a baby and it backfired as she's 6 and still acts quite young! I'll probably be even worse with this one as she's DEFINITELY my last.

I started buying some things this week, some little babygros and socks

It's starting to feel very real! I'm so excited though.

Loopy, hoping you can join us on the pg bandwagon very soon xxx

rainbowdays · 12/02/2010 10:38

Babyblue- wow time is going so fast, I can hardly believe your baby is already 6 months and on the move! I can so understand the desire to keep him as a baby for as long as possible, unfortunately I think that with older siblings, they just don't stay babies long enough!!

Kat - good to hear you are back online again

I am feeling fairly good, enjoying the nausea! Unfortunately I don't think I am going to be able to keep this pregnancy quiet very long, yesterday (at only 9 weeks pg!) my tummy popped out! I have had a few people staring at my stomach this morning already, you can see the question in their eyes, but no-one has had the nerve to ask me yet!!!!! I am sure I am now the size I was at about 20 weeks with my first! Looking fat but with tummy bigger than my huge boobs!

Glad all the beans and mummies are happy Started to get a twinge of broodiness reading all your posts... but its gone now

Loopy - keeping fingers crossed for your 2010 baby!

My little guy is now just 6.5 months and is keeping me on my toes! He gets around real quik and has almost mastered getting to a sit position from laying down! He is doing things so much faster than I remember my other DCs doing them. I need him to slow down since he is my last and I want him to be a baby for as long as possible!

katnkittens · 11/02/2010 10:02

Fantastic means

So how far on are you rainbow?

27 weeks now for me, so tired and uncomfortable but still ages to go! I just ordered a giant long pillow thing from ebay so hopefully Ill be able to sleep better. Plus I forgot how often you need to pee in later pregnancy! I'm up at least 3 times a night.

I'm back online now, so happy!

Meanbeansmum · 11/02/2010 09:01

Oh, 7 weeks today, 7 weeks today, lalalalalala. Feels fab to get this far, I know that's silly but each week feels so massive right now!

Meanbeansmum · 11/02/2010 08:58

Loopy, soyunds great. You will get a 2010 baby!
