February 2014. Bodystockings at the ready. We make pregnancy sexy.

[DawnOfTheDee]

Ok we don't. We're sick a lot, cry at adverts, moan about back/hip pain and if we got a quid for each new stretchmark generated we could all give up work and employ a nanny.

In fact if you know any teenagers feel free to show them our threads...we are the most effective contraceptive since sliced bread don't ask.

Ladies...as you were....

Sounds like thrush Libee. Other symptoms thick gooey white discharge. Ask your doctor to prescribe something, it's very common in pregnancy. I had it recently and someone else on here did too.

libee I've had thrush, I think it's connected to having the extra cm down there. It could be thrush, based on itching, but if you're not sure go get checked out.

champagne little Bean has had a quiet two days, and I was beginning to get a little worried, but it's been acrobatics all evening, so am a bit relieved. It might come and go depending where they are? They are not hemmed in for space that much yet, so maybe they can turn around and start wriggling at areas that won't register the movement?

ahhh!! my best friends in labour!!!! so excited and nervous!!!!

Spent half an hour this evening queued around the car park of the doctor's for my flu jab. It was a proper pensioners social gathering bar a few pregnant interlopers!

Then we went to asda so I can get some cheap bras. I can highly recommend their colour wire tshirt bras for £4 each, dead comfy and stretchy. Dh was eyeing up the batman baby clothes.

Settling into the new house nicely, just get v tired fast, and my back is very uncomfortable, especially the lower left hand side.

Lovely idea eeyorish I was worried as well as I only saw your latest post!

Hope your friend has an effortless labour bare

bugsy how was your scan?

Oh think I just saw on FB page I'm confused as haven't managed to tell who is who unless people write their MN name in post. That thing that tells us who is who has disappeared.

So is that bugsy and sassy team pink?

So I am going to have to go through all my adorable baby girl clothes. I am going to sell on eBay I think get some money for this boy and his clothes. I will probably cry as have held into them for 8 years in the hope of using again.

Glad to see the scans going so well.
ruey, I'm trying to imagine the school run too. We are moving this weekend and so the Feb school run will involve a 30 min bus journey and a 30 min walk with a newborn, 4 times a day. Not great but ds2 really doesn't want to change schools. I'm guessing my slings and baby snowsuits will come in handy.

Yes I'm one of today's team pink joiners! X

congrats on the new scans and colour news!
Jazz...I'm still not feeling movements and I'm 21 wks tomorrow, not worried yet as on both scans has been a very active baby! but can't wait to be able to feel!
Sassy...I was also found to have a low placenta, I'm being scanned again at 32 wks, hoping it will have moved by then, fingers crossed for us both.

Just want to share a happy birth story. A friend started contracting the evening before her edd. Went to hospital I the early AM, came close to having baby in the lift. Her waters broke and baby was in her arms 7 minutes later.

All is well and baby is wonderful. It is her first.

We can do this.

Night all.

I think we may have chosen name already, we are thinking Elijah, Eli for short.

Hi folks, some good warm weather baby clothes in baby gap at the mo and discount code metrogap (or gapmetro?) gets you 25% off anything non sale (maternity clobber too)

Thanks Milk. I love the gap baby clothes as well x

milk thanks for that!

If anyone is still hunting for the perfect pair of maternity tights, I believe I may have found them! These M&S tights are ladder resist (have already ruined 3 pairs of other brands) and are very comfy. Also not too pricey in comparison with mothercare.

I love the name Elijah somany. Great choice. This is our list:
Elijah/Eli,
Jasper,
Felix,
Casper,
Leo.
Although Felix doesn't flow well with DP'S surname and Eli goes really well. It would match my preferred pattern of easily shortened boys names too. I'm incredibly indecisive though.

Thanks Milk, coupons and codes are always welcome (we don't order pizza without a code- ever!)

Hey nice selection thingymajig, our list for boys names include:
theodore,
alexander,
Johan,

DH has an issue with all of them, but funnily enough he can't come up with any alternatives. Girls names are sorted, we'll name her after DH's late grandma.

champagne, yes I've heard that some foods make them more active than other foods, such as carbohydrates. So if you've had quite a lot of carbs in one day, then they move around more. Also, a lot of their movements are round the back by our spines or internal parts that we don't really recognise. I think that soon they'll start developing a sleeping pattern at some point. Try tapping on your tummy to start a little form of communication, we do this and then we get a little kick back after a minute or two. We already know that it'll be a cheeky runt!

Thanks for the code Milk. congratulation on team pink Sassy.
DH and I are still not agreeing on a name although my list is as follows:-

Alexander
Oliver
Aiden
Charlie

Ds2 is named Alexander teaaddict. Still love that name and it has a few nickname options (Alex, Zander, Lex) so I can recommend it.

My Clipsafe Bump Belt arrived! Now I can brake with impunity
Glad because I feel where the seatbelt currently sits, even at its lowest, is exactly where LO loves to hang out and that worries me.

I've got a bump belt Julietee and I feel so much happier that bump is safe with it.

Love my bump belt.
Our names are currently Theodore (either ted or theo for short) or Noah. I also like Mylo and Dylan but DH unconvinced on those. Have a thing for names with O in them.
The Boy is punching my cervix today. Most odd.

Aww, I love Theo. We've gone with Max :)

What??? No other Percy's?!!! I'm gob smacked....

afternoon all,

scan was yesterday, still team yellow!!

baby burge was a bit of a sod though and was in a really awkward position so it took 2 staff ages to get all the.measurements & me & Dh had no idea what we were looking at even when they explained it.

I was a bit deflated if I'm honest because I'd looked forward to my scan so much but it felt like a bit of a non event which is ridiculous because baby was healthy & as they should be so that's what's is most important not that I couldn't she it properly!!!
