Hi everyone!

Honey I would complain about that horrible, rude woman!

emilyeggs · 20/07/2012 18:39

Thanks, i've added myself. I share the same due date as itsMYNutella and pmgkt :). Still no baby kicking and no real bump yet but at least DH can feel the bump.

honey i would complain, I work in retail and that is just unacceptable!

PurplePidjin · 20/07/2012 18:50

All present and correct, lovely sonographer repeated a few bits of the scan so my mum could see everything and gave us a few seconds of heartbeat - wish I'd known so dp could hear it, i didn't know it was possible!

Strawberry, that's really reassuring. They wouldn't leave you hanging over a weekend if there was the slightest chance of anything untoward. Afaik, fluid levels change so it might be they just caught you at the right time :)

emilyeggs · 20/07/2012 19:01

Yay! have managed to add a pic of me and my family and my scan pic!

littlemissbroody26 · 20/07/2012 19:01

honey she sounds like a witch! complain you will probably get some free vouchers, I took my little sister into monsoon in her pushchair, it had been raining so it was wet on the outside but not soaking. I was pushing her around the kids section looking for a dress for my other sisters wedding and the shop assistant had a massive go at me, i pointed out i was looking at kids clothes and its a bit stupid to have a shop with kids clothes that you cant take a pushchair into. I wrote a letter and they sent me 30 punds of vouchers.

great to here all the right bits are there pidjin :)

StaceymReadyForNumber3 · 20/07/2012 19:10

Yay pidj

HoneyMum21 · 20/07/2012 19:14

Yay Pidj that all is good and yay for extra looks at baby!

Thanks all - i've just told DH about what happened as he's planning to phone the manager and complain tomorrow. I work in retail too so was trying to rationalise her behaviour as being friday afternoon wipeout, then i realised i would never treat a customer like that even if they had been as they often are particularly silly about something.

utopian- yeah search on ebay for home doppler, they are really good!!

honey- slap her automatic responce these days. tbh- she made herself look like an idiot! hold your head high, your pregnant! you can cry whereever / whenever you like, and you still won as the machine gave you the money :)

DP bought me a massive bar of chocolate, which was lovley of him, however after having eaten all of it after having a few bites i feel very sick and now am grumpy at him Hmm.. hormones!

EggsMichelle · 20/07/2012 19:58

Congratulations Acj, welcome to the blue team! Thanks Mini for putting the link up, I couldn't bring myself to search for it!

Just been to see The Dark Knight Rises, very good and Shrimpy only fidgeted at the very end so had a happy bladder throughout!

ellliebelle · 20/07/2012 20:21

Bubbless i ended up getting same doppler as yoy not given it a go going to wait for dh to get in.

My can of cider has lasted me 3 hours and given me hellish heartburn so much for relaxing me :)

Dh should be home in just under an hour what takeaway should we have? Im soooo indecisive Grin

SpottyTeacakes · 20/07/2012 20:27

StaceymReadyForNumber3 · 20/07/2012 20:39

Hi all, trying to catch up on thread but brain is mush after this week!

Glad scan may be ok strawb and yours is all good pidg, sorry if I've missed anyone hope all going well. Did I see another boy?!

Sorry to hear some are struggling emotionally, I think I saw mydaydream talk about stress about going back to work as well as others feeling extremely sad. Hope you feel better soon.

Tried to write last night but fell asleep! Feel happier in my self after hitting the ground running/ bugger all phased return settling back in (and soooooo proud of class and especially their behaviour with me after thinking I was dead!) Went to docs and saw fab woman who just put me onto some cbt which I had 3 years ago the last time my thyroid wobbled and was attempting to be super woman at work. it's just annoying that its come to this as I've worked out that a chunk of my anxiety over the last 3 months simply comes down to lack of risk assessment, which, if they'd ever bothered to try to do, would have stated no trampolining (rebound) therapy and possibly outlined risky disease procedures thus no need for me to constantly fight and wonder if 'AIBU' and am I making a fuss. And to be told that the head has had pregnant women just refuse to do anything following the 'its not an illness' trampoline discussion made me then so confused about what I should question doing plus feeling written off before I've had a chance. still, I'm much more confident that any whiff of stress or issues I would be signed off, with deputy head's approval.

May have shifted a few too many things today plus scoffed a few too many chocolates and guinness choc cake and can actually feel it somewhat. Need this bump pic soon - couldnt put boxes near tummy atall, no room!

Oh and not all bad as one of my holiday homework jobs is to "familiarise my self with fight with DH over an iPad" loaned to me over the summer for a reluctant reader project ! Grin

check- pretty familiar now .... Time for pram shopping browsing!

Clarella · 20/07/2012 22:08

Ps as any prawn in this house currently gets nuked in the effing microwave, I've had quite a few

ellliebelle · 20/07/2012 22:58

Just tried doppler out :) found my heart beat/placenta very easy think bubbs was hiding eventually found heartbeat just below my belly button, didnt expect it to be so high. It moved after a minute though and couldnt find it again

SpottyTeacakes · 21/07/2012 02:54

Been awake for an hour now and can't sleep Sad Angry

PurplePidjin · 21/07/2012 07:12

Wrt food, dp is Seventh Day Adventist and they follow Old Testament dietary guidelines (no pork, no shellfish etc) and there's a lot of similarities mmm bacon butties at my mum's A combination of that and decent food hygiene practices seems to work for me, a lot of what i can't have isn't on the menu here anyway!

Bastard seagulls, do you think the cop shop up the road would arrest me if i borrowed my dad's air rifle and dealt with them? Angry

I'm off to the village show in a bit, there's a pic of one of my entries on my profile Wink

EggsMichelle · 21/07/2012 07:49

I need to start loaning my cat out, she is tiny but an expert bird catcher, DH found the remains of a pigeon in the garden last week, I'm sure she would enjoy the challenge of a seagull!

I think I have a cold, felt a bit bunged up yesterday, now I feel like I've been stuffed with cotton wool, oh joy! Steam and paracetamol it is.

PurplePidjin · 21/07/2012 07:56

I'm in a flat, the gulls are on the roof of the shops over the road. One pa-doing out of my bedroom window and they'll shut the hell up...

EggsMichelle · 21/07/2012 08:06

You could get a pee shooter, no risk of a passer by freaking out over "crazed armed woman".
