Ah. I see what you mean..the blindfold means I don't have to stare at my tits. Yes..he may go for this.

lol, yep. Probably TMI but it's how I deal if I have no desire to look at my pendulous chest

Night everyone. xx

We have only had sex twice since BFP. I just can't be arsed!

I survived my 8 hours in charge of 4 children in a public place yesterday. I was asleep by 9 though!

I too have masses of sewing on of name labels to do. I'm taking it all over to my grandmas tonight so she can share the load! I sensibly bought iron in for dd, but last year I bought sew in for ds and now I regret having to use up the left overs.

We are going to Odds Farm Park today to meet Fireman Sam. Oh lord.

Mummypig you are setting the holiday parenting bar very high! I was awful yesterday - kids watched hours of telly, I was in an awful mood. We're still not venturing out very far as only potty trained the 2yr old a few weeks ago so she's still somewhat unpredictable. But she's dry at night already! So we have no nappies at all! Well for another 6 months....

Scan day scan day. Cacking self slightly.

Good luck for today's scans.

Hello all from sunnier climes and a moment of bandwidth!

Sorry to hear Kat's news. Hope you take time to recover.

Well done to those of you getting it on. I'm too tired - and hot...

Good news on the scans!

Quick question... Anyone feeling movement yet? I know it's early (and I have an anterior placenta) but am sure I felt the other two about 13 weeks. Any ideas how the anterior placenta might delay things?

Au revoir!

Teddy I felt movement yesterday for the first time. Anterior placenta generally means feeling things much later.

Me and DH are averaging 2 shags a week, so a lot less than usual. Definitely feels weird at the moment, but making the most of bump being small enough to not heavily influence position - still remember how difficult it was towards the end last time

Good luck for today's scans!

Hi y'all
Been busy away for bank holiday. But catching uphas been extremely funny, sad (sorry to hear about kat) and educational
Charlene Harris for chick lit of true blood series & David Gemmel for some fabulous detailed writing

Im missing my salmon sashimi even if it was whales foreskin id still have it

I know quite a few are off to their scans to day, wish you all the best and let us know how it goes with your pornographers!

Morning all Lyra have things settled down???

Almost wet myself at pornographer, it's a good job I'm still having problems with my uterus tilting!!

bouse I'm not sure I'd have taken my 4yr old tbh. I really don't mean to put a downer on things and suggest horrible things but you need to consider what you'll do if there's a problem. My friend took her dd to her 12 week scan and she'd had a mmc. Luckily dd was only 21months so didn't understand anything but her oh was then stuck out in the waiting room unable to comfort her.

Good look to those having scans today

You all chat far too much!

I've no idea what I'm supposed to be looking out for in terms of movements. At the moment my stomach is horribly distended so I'm off in search of a de-bloating remedy!

We've hardly DTD at all since our BFP. After reading about all your exploits and feeling jealous I've decided I'm going to break that cycle tonight.

Would it be unreasonable to insists I keep my sports bra on throughout? It's my best friend in this pregnancy!

Good point about if something were wrong at the scan lumpylumps. My thinking for ours was there is more chance of it all being fine, and it was a lovely moment to share together. Really special even if ds was bored shitless ten mins in

And if, god forbid, there had been a problem, ds is a bit too young to understand what was going on. If he were older, I prob would've taken Nanny along and him come in with her towards the end of scan, after the all clear :)

Oh btw, my due date is now 7th march, think it needs changing in stats Fred :)

Good luck to all scanees today! Look forward to updates x

HotCross - possibly unreasonable to insist upon it but I reckon you could engineer it so the situation ended up that way.

Good luck to today's scanees!

I'm so tired. We were woken up by two men trying to jump over our fence at the back of the garden to get away from the police. Who were then going up and down the street shining torches everywhere for ages. At 4am. It's going to be a long day!

Morning all. Ood luck for scannees today.

Am working from home onday, feel to rough to handle the commute. I seem to have caught a sodding cold on top of everything else!

NoMaybe - I'm working from home today too. But as I'm sat here eating a Nutella toastie I can't really claim it's due to sickness lol. Hope you perk up a bit.

Thanks Joll. I'm having a crumpet. I have lived off crumpets!

I keep trying to get crumpets bur whenever I buy them, OH seems to see it as a challenge to eat the whole pack before I manage to have even 1 Then he has the nerve to ask me why all my cravings seem to be really bad for me

Crumpets aren't bad for you! Especially if you don't get to eat them . MrM keeps eating my pregnancy snacks. Just cos he can!

I know they're not...but I can't eat them if he keeps hoovering them lol.

Craving salt and vinegar crisps now.

I had very little will power before the pregnancy...how am I supposed to resist when I get a bona fide craving? !?

I've gone off crisps. Though I did enjoy a few pickled onion monster munch the other day

I've never liked crisps, even as a child. But suddenly salt and vinegar posh crisps are like ambrosia lol.

How about an s&v pringle?!

Oh haven't had s&v pringles in a looong time. Been living off crumpets, chicken noodles and puckled onions.

Pram don't know how much I've missed but good for you for giving him one more chance. Did you at least enjoy it? No good making him feel better if you're not getting anything out of it. (Hint hint) :)

Pickled - sorry fat fingers
