Cake, chicken nuggets, Shloer and whatever else we're craving is on the table ready

I have my booking in appointment today which is hopefully one step closer to knowing when I will get my scan.

Could do with something positive ms is rubbish at the moment :(

randdom I suffered with crippling nausea but when I got to 10 weeks its gradually tailed off each day. Now 10+5 and feel normal a majority of the day now. There is light at the end of the tunnel.

Woo :) Love The Vampire Diaries can't wait.

Good luck today Dobe, let us know how you get on xx

mumof2 that sounds promising will put it on my list.

So not knowing where I might be poked and prodded by my consultant tomorrow I need to run out for some razor blades. Pregnacy is sooo glamorous.

littlebairn wait till you have to get your OH to help you shave, even more glam! ;) my belly gets so big I cant reach to my ankles when shaving without being a contortionist!

mumof2 I love The Walking Dead - its not too scary, it is really really gory though but its got a great storyline - im a big fan of apocalypse/dystopian/zombie type stuff.

Also hooked on Homeland - still catching up on series 2 at the moment. Also Love/Hate - I do watch an awful lot of TV

Also reading the Divergent series by Veronica Roth which I cannot put down! If anyone liked the Hunger Games you will love these and the film is out next year :) dont know where I find the time to do all this reading/TV watching haha saying that I spent three years working full-time whilst also studying full time at night school so when I finally graduated with my degree I didnt know what to do with all my free evenings and weekends!

Hope you start feeling better soon randdom

I quite like getting dh to do my legs lounge in bath, stick leg up and let him do the hard work! Perfect, lol, and he does a better job than me

alioh I loved the hunger games books! I get annoyed when films are made from books though as they never do the book justice. I annoy OH as I rip most films to shreds.

I wish I could watch as much tv as you get to, never seems enough hours in the day though. Sounds like we have the same taste. Will order divergent series on pay day. Thank you for the recommendation.

mumof2 I agree, DP was very embarrassed when we went to see the last Twilight film in the cinema and I muttered about how ridiculous it was most of the way through

If you like that those type of books the Matched trilogy by Ally Condie is also good - not as good as the Divergent ones I thought but definitely worth a read :)

Hope the scan goes well dobe and happy cake day little xav

Well my life has been revelutionised by owning a car. I've driven for years and had my mums car for a while once but not since having DS. Got the car on odd days since having him but I'm loving being totally freeeee! This morning we went to Livingston shopping for my aunts birthday and DS ran around the centre and learned how to hold my hand and let me guide him while walking yay. Now he's napping but we are off out again to a friend I've not seen (who I was due in August 2012 with and met at nct, and we are now both due in may!) for ages due to my inability to get out! Woohoo!

ham oh I miss Livingston for shopping, I used to live very near there until last year.
I don't drive (I refuse to learn I can't judge distance while moving ) but we have really good rail connections here so hopefully it won't be too much of an issue.

Did you feel like the NCT membership was worth it?
I've thought about it because I don't really know anyone local and family all love at a distance it would be nice to meet other mothers to be and hopefully make some little friends for the future.

Hi everyone,

Sorry I've been awol for a bit. Was away down to see my parents (and told my Mum) over half term and haven't quite managed to catch up with assorted threads up til now. Hopefully now I am up to date I'll try and post a bit more frequently.

Sorry to hear we've lost some people along the way. Hope if you do decide to TTC again it won' be long til you're back on the antenatal threads.

Nausea seems to be lifting, though I still seem to be avoiding fruit and veg/ anything with a reasonable nutritional value. I have however been mainlining stilton on tiger bread. Which is possibly contributing to the bloating. I also seem to have popped in the last couple of days. Keeping it under wraps until Christmas may be a bit of wishful thinking.

11+4

Woooohooo been to ante natal clinic today and they impressed with diabetes business !

I had my scan!

All seems well, baby gave us a little wave and a back flip and it was quite emotional! Due date is now 9th May.

It's official now too. Twitter and Facebook know

Sounds like you've both had great days. Fantastic news on the scan dobedobedo

Yay for the scan news dobe and good news on the clinic front thistle!

Thats fantastic news dobe Hope you have a picture you can add to your profile so we can see? xx

I had my booking appointment :) finally first pregnancy thing I've done! Went well my midwife is so nice. Now it's countdown to a scan date!

Fantastic news dobe

Well OH is suitably in the doghouse but I'm fairly sure nothing happened today and he has been reprimanded uni went well and I'm trying out for university challenge next week! Should be interesting as my uni is very low-ranking and my parents call it Scumbag College

Can just imagine my answer when it comes to the whole "what university do you go to and what are you reading?".

"Hi I'm and I'm reading Classics"
"Hi, I'm and I'm reading Geography"
"Hi, I'm Maddy and I'm reading The Tiger Who Came To Tea"

Congratulations dobe

It's do funny to see you call him little Xav as Xav is DS1 ;) we've all had a lovely day with family, friends and cake (and cheese and pineapple on sticks for me) completely exhausted now.

Happy birthday to your DD cbeebies! 'Twas a wonderful day to have a baby

As soon as I can figure out how, I'll put up a scan pic. If any of you recognise me from social media or real life, don't out me!

I've put up a pic

Dobe You need to set your profile so people can see it :)

I've popped a picture of DS2 today on my profile.
