Good morning ladies. Hiya Keep I was very similar to Sparks I think it was a good 6 weeks before any symptoms really started to show. It really is hard to keep it to yourself when all you want to do is shout it from every rooftop :) Telling them is brilliant fun though! When will you have the scan?

keepitgoing · 25/03/2013 09:48

Well, I think they will do overkill on scans here, as they want to make money... We have one on Friday, that I think they use to confirm clinical pregnancy for their stats. I'll only be 5 weeks, so will just see the yolk sac. I think you can see the heartbeat earliest 6ish weeks? I don't know what other scans they recommend.

OK, won't stress about lack of symptoms. I am still so happy, plus overwhelming sense of relief.

At least I'm 000s of miles away, makes it easier to keep a secret!

boo have you started m/l yet?

What happened to cru and ?/Mon?

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 25/03/2013 10:12

No m/l for me I'm afraid, I'm one of those bloody sahm's Wink

I didn't think I would have many scans, I have ended up seeing more of booby than some of my family. I'm waiting for my last (I hope) growth scan now, and I have really enjoyed every single one!

I will check back in later when I have been scanned and checked up on!

keepitgoing · 25/03/2013 10:23

Ooh brill, I didn't realise! Good luck for the scan today.

I'm going to stop reading about m/c rates now...

cartoontrickster · 25/03/2013 12:13

argh I need to be banned from coming here, I like still coming to visit you all but then I just upset myself.

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 25/03/2013 12:56

Oh Cartoon we love seeing you too.

Right, we have a plan! Booby is currently measuring just north of the 95th centile, weight estimated at 6lb 6oz. I go again in 3 weeks (I will be 37+3) for another scan and a stretch and sweep. Induction for sometime the following week if I have not already had it.

Nope, not just you Sparks I have worried constantly about booby, now I'm fretting about will I be able to breast feed (teen did toddly didn't).

I actually have everything ready for booby (not in a bag yet but all in the same place) I just need to get to primarni for some cheap PJ's, dressing gown and pants in black/dark colour then I'm good to go :)

And please do step away from Dr Google unlike me who still checks weekly for baby growth updates Grin

Grin ask him if he has packed his labour bag yet?? Snacks, change of clothes, deoderant, tooth brush, car park change?? Bet he's not thought of that Mr boo hasn't!

Is he keeping the car topped up with petrol just in case?? Bless, he's going to wear himself out before twinkle get here Grin

On Jen please stay, tell us tales of life outside the grads thread, please don't go [begging emoticon]

Sparks just checking, Mr S's book is about being a dad and not changing oil or something, cos a book about changing oil will be no help to him in the next 12 weeks Grin

keepitgoing · 26/03/2013 02:07

boo that's one big baby!!!! Ooh, four weeks to go! Doesn't sound long, but to me at the moment the days are crawling...

sparks that's so cute of your dh to be so prepared. What was the ambulance for?

One day at a time.

Keep the first 12 weeks were for me the longest slowest time I have ever known. But just wait, you will soon be 34 weeks, panicking about having no black PJ's and can't be arsed to go into town to get some wondering where the time has gone. I promise.

Sparks Grin arf @ Harry fees!

cartoontrickster · 26/03/2013 10:01

keep the ladies on my other thread say pupo.
pregnant until proven otherwise.

keepitgoing · 26/03/2013 10:28

Ooh sparks, nasty! But best to be safe for you and twinkle. I don't think it was ASN overreaction on anyone's part, just being sensible.

4+4... Pupo, I like it face. You'll be back here before we know it, you mark my words.

boo, that's the beauty of online shopping, no? Order what you want! Are the kids excited about the baby now? Expect teen boo is, but secretly. Yours is an ubb, right?

cartoontrickster · 26/03/2013 12:05

keep I know that's why I'm nit letting my space on the sofa get cold! touchwood I've never taken long to find the right pre stick its the other stuff that delays me, appointments, tests etc.
in some ways 2wks has gone quick in others I can't believe its only been that long. I'm just anxious for our appointment and an action plan.
