Welcome Martians!

Mummybee, I've felt movement on and off since 11 weeks (very early, I know) and a few others here have been feeling regular movement. Initially it might feel like something tapping you lightly from the inside. It can be hard at first to distinguish from wind bubbles passing through. I was only sure of what I was feeling because I felt the movement and heard it simultaneously on the midwife's Doppler. I wouldn't have known what I was hearing if she hadn't told me.

DP is going to pay for us to join the posh gym near us tomorrow I used to be a member there when I was working and had money. It has a lovely pool so I'll be able to swim every day and go to classes. Will have to avoid the jacuzzis and sauna though sadly. And it's above Sainsburys so I can do my shopping afterwards.

Grey, when can we expect news from Rock? I don't know what time her appointment is (sorry, haven't read any of today's posts yet).

lyra that gym sounds perfect (bar the jacuzzi and sauna taunting you)!

her scan is at 6pm i think!

Had a very challenging day in the office so far, and yet this is still my number 1 achievement:

Sneezed without weeing

Oh lyra I am so jealous!

It's so so hot in our office it's making me really really queasy...

I'm 17+3 and haven't felt owt yet, Mummy. I'm only expecting to feel summat from 20wks+

Another shithole viewed. What a waste of 40 miles and petrol.

Also, H&M can suck my dick

Who was thinking about going to the Manchester baby show this weekend? They have emailed me to offer 2 free tickets, just use code MBT108 when booking!

I'm going rock. 2 free tickets! Wow! Ours were buy one get one free.

OH doesn't want to go, my mums in a wheelchair and it's usually heaving at event city so we struggle to see anything when we go to craft shows etc, so looks like I'm missing out :( hope you guys have fun though!!!

I had blood & urine taken at my booking and I got my results back for those when I went for my ultrasound at the hospital so I'm assuming my urine was sent to the labs there for testing, my bloods were all fine after booking apart from a lack of immunity to rhubella. I'm hoping its nothing serious, but I will find out by 6pm.

mummybee I'm 16 + 5 and I think may have felt bean moving. Feels like butterflies. Then again might just be a fierce bowel movement!

Why is there no decent baby events here!!

I'm predicting a BOY for Rock

It was me hoping to go Rock - how on earth have you gotten 2 free tickets? Will have to check with the Mr and see if he had plans for us now

ok guesses for rock are as follows:

boy: andie, grey, hamwidge, jolleigh, kara, mtb, mummypig, nomaybe, rock

girl:april, comms, cool, edamame, emza, hot, lampchop, liberuna, pirates

ok guesses for rock are as follows:

boy: andie, grey, hamwidge, jolleigh, kara, mtb, mummypig, nomaybe, rock

Mummybee I'm 15+4 and I'm almost definite I've felt flutters once. It felt like butterflies (kind of!). It's such a weird feeling!

I think Rock is having a girl this time :).

Pram sorry you had a wasted trip. The right one will come up soon I'm sure. I've also fallen out with H&M!

Jol well done! Keep up those kegels

I've been on my feet all day. In heels. Not a happy bunny.

I feel your pain comms I have put my heels to the back of the wardrobe, time to get a nice pair of crocs! :(

Well done joll!

Got my blood results, they tested to see if I'm aneimic or have blood clots, probably because I told the doc I've been feeling breathless. Both negative!!

Are all the gender reveals on the stats theead? I am having trouble keeping up.

My urine dip result came back, no infection but dehydrated! How that happened I don't know.

so they're on a spreadsheet on the Facebook - i haven't posted the link on here because its linked to my personal google account and also because theres pics of everyones scans some of them with real names in the corner!

I'm sure mtb will put them on the spreadsheet when she has a chance but at the moment it's just a boy for me and a girl for baldrick and then rock tonight!

Hadn't even thought about the scan name Grey After many many years, it seems there's now evidence of my real name on Facebook lol.

Are there any other high BMI ladies who've been prescribed asprin to take?

What's everyone having for dinnnerrrrr

Congratulations greymoose and thanks for catching me up :)

gaw I'm making beef stroganoff & roast potatoes. It's DP's favourite, and I'm after brownie points since I'm telling him I want to go on a 'Babymoon' at the end of October

What are you having?

babybear - I have a high bmi but am allergic to aspirin...what have they given it to you for? As a blood thinner?
