Beebies yes I wear glasses, only last week I was told I need to have
My retinas rephotographed but have felt so crap I haven't had energy to make the appt, although my last appt was only less than 6 months ago!

The obstetric doc says my headaches r tension headache causes by hormones!!

CbeebiesIsMyLife · 06/11/2013 16:22

I'm being licked by my crazy kids!? Moomin were having lasagne here, you're more than welcome to share my girls won't eat theirs anyway and I always make too much! It'll be ready around 5 but I can keep it warm Grin

Thistle I see, hopefully you get used to the hormones soon and the headaches wear off.

snoozy my scan was late at 14 weeks too. If its any consolation at that stage it's so much more a baby which is nice better than pretending you know which end of a blob the sonographer is pointing out. Grin

moominleigh94 · 06/11/2013 16:25

Cheers cbeebies I love a good lasagne Grin

snoozysleeper · 06/11/2013 16:29

Ah thank you littlebairn that is a good thought

dobedobedo · 06/11/2013 16:32

Lovely scan pics vikks!

I don't know what I want for dinner tonight. It's so nice having an appetite again! Although I'm going to have to be careful not to put on too much weight.

I'd love a big bowl of irish stew - you can't buy it here though and it will take way too long to make. Makes me look forward to having a few months off work so I can spend time on cooking proper dinners again!

TheAlyssWithTheMewlingQuim · 06/11/2013 16:46

I put a scan pic up Smile I know my mum only responded negatively to the news because she's worried, so I'm not going to pay too much attention to it.

mumof2aimingfor4 · 06/11/2013 16:57

alyss I would be thrilled to be carrying twins, but both sides have identical twins so statistics aren't in my favour.

bluestone85 · 06/11/2013 18:15

Alyss You need to make your profile public as we can't click on it :)

FrightFlea · 06/11/2013 18:44

Congrats on the twins and also on the good news for scans.

I had my 12 week scan yesterday. It was great. So detailed! All organs accounted for and the toe and finger count tallied up. Low risk for the nuchal test. I'm officially due on the 15th instead of the 22. (No longer date buddies with mumof2aiming :( ) And a week closer to seeing an end to this infernal ms.

We are not going to find out the sex this time either. My last two pregnancies were polar opposites, one kicked constantly, stuck out to different sides, different ms but both were girls. Just very different personalities now that they are out though.

I will stick up some photos soon.

moominleigh94 · 06/11/2013 19:01

I'm really excited, five weeks tomorrow until 20 week scan and we find out the sex Grin

TheAlyssWithTheMewlingQuim · 06/11/2013 19:02

Profile should be public now.
There are no twins anywhere in my family, my granny was so shocked when I told her! She had to go take an aspirin.

bluestone85 · 06/11/2013 19:03

Alyss look at your two little beans! Amazing!

Jenologist · 06/11/2013 19:05

Hello ladies!
Officially delurking since there's a new thread. I had my 12 week scan last week, but my plum turned out to be a lime, and they put me back to 11+2. Was also too small and uncooperative to do NT measurement. All of which means I go back tomorrow for a second scan (hurrah!). Was very worried last time, more excited this time round. Symptoms have been slowly disappearing, apart from the icky one about discharge!

Good to hear everyone's happy scan news, looking forward to getting to know everyone over the next few months.

SarahJinx · 06/11/2013 19:29

Wowzer Alyss, I've never seen a Twin scan before, how amazing! Congratulations. 14+1 here, still feeling sick sick sick....

Xavielli · 06/11/2013 19:34

Great pic Alyss! My brothers non-identical twin scan looked so different to yours they were completely separate.

FrightFlea · 06/11/2013 19:50

Cool photo Alyss. Another person here who has never seen a twin scan photo.

I put my scan photo. Tried to put them both up but the bloody thing kept replacing the first with a copy of the second.

hamncheese · 06/11/2013 19:52

squiffie I am the unfortunate mowife in question. Sigh. That's nice your DH doing it for his friend though.

Someone was asking about work maternity gear and I meant to say I highly rate h&m maternity gear esp the jeans. Not that that has anything to do with work wear but I'd imagine if they have good jeans the trousers might be decent too?

I'm up past seven. On the couch not in bed. What's going on here????

hamncheese · 06/11/2013 19:56

Aww look at the twins! They are fab!

Cute story of the day. My DS learned to come and give kisses. He came over to me and arms out leaned up and mwah on the mouth. So much love! He's 15 months btw :)

Squiffie · 06/11/2013 20:01

Alyss your twin scan pic is so cool I want twins just for the scan pic

Ah hamncheese don't you just love Movember?! DH has gone for a rather fetching number this year that goes down the sides too!

mumof2aimingfor4 · 06/11/2013 20:03

Alyss your scan pic is amazing, im another one that has never seen a twin scan.

Hendricks · 06/11/2013 20:44

Gorgeous scan picture Alyss - what a lovely first picture of your twins

Scan went well this morning. Bundle was cooperative for the nuchal measurement, dating and checking heartbeat, but I think he/she must have been asleep before we started as he/she was face down and kept trying to kick the scanner off - it looked like they were doing mountain climbers. Or maybe it was just copying what I was doing at bootcamp yesterday! I've been moved a day forward to a due date of 15th May and have to wait til next year for the 20 week scan.

I got re-measured for bras last Friday. So far I've only gone up a cup size, but I'm now wearing non-wired so I'll have a bit of leeway if my boobs do suddenly have a growth spurt. And they do feel more comfortable, even if they're not the most attractive items of underwear!

dobedobedo · 06/11/2013 20:59

Welcome jen!

That twin scan pic is amazing aly Grin

I can't believe I'm still awake. AND I cooked dinner tonight for the first time since I discovered I was pregnant - handled raw meat without wanting to throw my guts up and everything! I'm so glad the sickness has went away and I really do seem to have more energy than I had before.
I wouldn't say I'm "blooming" but I don't want to crawl into bed with a sick bucket and die all the time anymore. Grin (13+5)

Vikks · 06/11/2013 20:59

Hendricks Fantastic scan news!

Alyss Amazing twin scan picture, so cute.

FrightFlea Another great picture, so clear!

Jenologist Welcome! Enjoy your second scan tomorrow.

I am so nosey, can everyone post their scans pics, I love looking at all the beautiful babies!! Grin Grin Grin

Choppa · 06/11/2013 21:00

Hello ... Lots of good scan news today.

Ours went really well. Baby was there kicking away and we saw him open and close his mouth a few times! They have moved me forward 5 whole days though which means an immaculate conception...just call me Mary Hmm so I'm now 13+2. I'll go with their dates but won't be at all surprised if baby is late!! Due date 12th May. Maybe I'm just having a giant baby Confused

Scan was very clear and we saw some great poses by Chops2 but pics aren't that great. I'll try to post one ASAP.

I'm loving the twin scan pics...lovely.
