[BexBoo12]

New thread for our chatty bunch :-) x

Bex

I'm intrigued... I'll have to have a look at that bra thread!

Morning ladies
Hope everyones okay x
Makes a change seeing sunshine in the morning rather than dull skies Hope you all have a lovely day xc

oh nice to see mussingcaffeine has same edd as me am team yellow for now too. scan still seems ages away

missingcaffeine. ...sorry

Had midwives appointment this morning and heard baby's heartbeat. All going well it seems. My EDD is 17th Sept and am team yellow (for now, until 20 week scan) if I can be added back to the stats. I was on the list before I went on holiday but now seem to have disappeared. I think people must have thought I had disappeared when I went on holiday for a fortnight but am definitely still here! :) x

I was left off the stats too and i'm here all the time lol, just a big group I think. Too many to keep track of!

Was having a read of that bra thread and the relevant blog, very interesting. Will give that measuring technique a try - I don't think I have ever had a bra that fit. I'm currently rotating between bras of 3 different sizes and none are any good! Different shops size differently too which is a pain. I would not go to La Senza for a fitting if I were you, their bras and fittings are not accurate in my opinion and seem to cater only for young teenagers.

My EDD is 2nd of sept and I'm team BLUE! :)
lovely to see him on scan this morning, so so nervous beforehand tho. She focused on the heart which made me nervous, but she was just having difficulty seeing it properly. Now to go shopping for my little man :)

Heard the heartbeat at 16 week appointment this morning. The midwife double checked twice that it wasnt my pulse as it was ridiculously easy to pick up and very loud. :)

I went to ann summers for a bra fitting last week and they were lovely.

I think it is hard to keep track of all the people on here lol. Rockin kindly did the stats list but it might be easier for those that have been left off the latest one to add themselves back in? Just a thought :)

Congrats amy on your blue news!

I'm waiting until tomorrow to update my stat as hopefully then I shall know team pink or blue! I've found that I've been saying 'she' though so I hope if it is a he that he won't be too offended. DP just alternates between saying he and she which I think baby must find really confusing! I just want it to all be ok though - so worried.

Has anyone found that they have needed a different size for non wired/non padded bras than they would for padded/wired (not taking pregnancy boob growth in to account). I feel it's just going to be a matter of going and trying them on - which is a shame as I prefer the lazy online shopping method!

It's lovely to hear all the team blue & pink news. Hoping to find out at my scan on Thursday. We're both convinced its a boy & have no idea on a boys name. Agreed on a girl's name within about a week of BFP!

My attempt at hiding my bump in a client meeting last week wasn't as successful as I thought as one of my colleagues was asked today if I was pregnant! Out with another client tonight so in a baggy top. Apparently I've been stroking my bump in meetings so need to watch out for that one tonight too. Will be so much easier once I've told them all after the scan. Is anyone else still trying to hide their bump?

Don't know how to add myself back to stats but my edd is 17th September and team yellow til the 20week scan on 29th April x

Please can you add me back in? Team blue, EDD sept 2, thank you

Added myself back in as well. xxx

Hi everyone, had my 20week scan today was really nervous before but thankfully everything looked ok. It's amazing how much they change from the 12 week one I can't believe how clear it was! Just can't wait till she's here now! X

Hi everyone, life is so hectic at the moment I don't get to post very often but I do keep up with all posts - it's my sanity if I'm honest!! Interesting about the bra sizes, my boobs are still the same however it has made me wonder about my bra size as I've not been properly fitted for a bra for a long time. This may be a silly question, but lots of you are talking about non wired bras, should we not be wearing them now??

I'm 19+1 today and still had no movements I'm sure he will give me a boot soon. Had a little dash to midwife last week as was getting horrendous pains in my right side, she could find no real reason as to why I was getting them, checked baby's heartbeat etc, all was fine and was sent home and told if they hadn't died down in 12 hours to go to hospital in case of appendicitis. Thankfully all has calmed down now.

How are you all? Fantastic news about all the pink and blues xx

Am I missing something with the non-wired bra's? I live in underwired, and still wearing them. But I have read a couple of comments on here about not wearing them during pregnancy. Is there a particular reason?

Hi BexBoo glad all is well with you now - the pain you had last week must have been scary!
I have read it is ok to still wear underwired bras so long as they are well fitting (the wire sits in your armpit as it should, and not on the breast tissue at all as this can affect breast development. HTH :)

Bex I can't believe you are still in your pre preg bras, I've gone up 3 cup sizes to a 34 f which is the biggest my favorite £4 tee shirt bras from asda go up to so I will be very upset if they get any bigger

Work has gone stupidly busy at the moment which means time is flying, I'm nearly 17 weeks now, and some of you have had your 20 week scans, it only feels like a really short time ago we were all 6 odd weeks and our 12 week scans felt an age away!

Agh posted too soon stupid phone.

Those pains sound horrid, glad the midwife has reassured you but they still don't sound much fun

I'm still in pre-pregnancy bras (for now). My boobs are bigger but my bras are still comfortable , probably because they are old and stretched! I prefer wired so am hoping to be able to stick with those although I do wear a stretchy non wired bra to bed.

Is anyone else having difficulty sleeping? Sleeping on my side (either!) makes my hips ache and I'm shattered from broken sleep.
