January 2015 - More scans, kicks, hiccups and glowiness - thread #8

[ChineseFireball]

How's this, ladies? Old thread is here - can someone add the stats linky?

Aaargh stupid baby brain. 2015, ffs!! Have reported my first post and will see if MNHQ can change it :)

Aaaand now I've discovered it's a stupid duplicate. Reported the whole thing. Maybe it'll go. Nothing to see here, anyone

Hellooooo

OK now I'm confused - MNHQ have sent me a message to say they've deleted the other thread. So here we are. I think :/
Hello everyone :) I'm just catching up on the last thread!

I get all stressed when we fill a thread and I'm looking for the new one. Is this us? I can't see another one chinese so it must be.

How is everyone this evening? I am lying here waiting for baby to move, last night I got some lovely kicks :)

Just marking my place! Jesus kicking away after I ate some dark choc with sea salt, nice to see it has the same taste as it's mother!

Scan in t minus 12 hours....

Hello! Well done on setting up the new post Chinese
Long time no post, sorry!
I've just made some shortbread in honour of tomorrow's bake off.
I really really really want a glass of wine.. We had friends round on fri and there are THREE bottles of wine in the house. It's painful....!!!
Xxx

You can have one glass Lulu!!

Helllooo New Fred!

What's the weird removed post on the end of the old Fred??

Hullo :)

I don't think it's by a normal poster.. Oooh the mystery of the removed mn post!!!

Yes may have a teeny tiny one....

Mmmm my biscuits are delicious!

Closetoyou started a new thread about a minute before I started this one and the last post on the old thread was linking to that so it looks like she's requested it be removed - her thread was deleted as a duplicate. Vair confusing!

I've PM'd someone about the FB group (can't remember who - sorry :( preggy brain) - I'm logged in as Jan Babies on & off - if you want to join please can you PM me on here with your RL name or Jan Babies on FB with your MN name and friend request Jan Babies on FB so that I know you're a busser and not just a random stalky journo? The FB group is secret so things you post can only be seen by those in the group. Katethehuman is very prompt at adding people so if you get no joy from me then give her a shout :)

Having read the last thread it seems like I've missed a lot. I hope everyone is ok - Sprout and Mummyk8 and Decmummy are names which I remember with my soup-like brain - hope things are ok for you. And apologies if I've missed anyone. MlleG if you're still lurking, thank you for your lovely posts and I wish you lots of loveliness for the future x

Mmmm love shortbread biscuits! Ice just baked a lemon drizzle cake to take to work tomorrow for a colleague's last day. Smells delicious but it will have to wait for the taste test tomorrow!

I went swimming tonight and I'm shattered! I only did 20 minutes and I'm a weak swimmer. I used to run quite a lot but gave that up when I got the bfp. Not really done any exercise but I hope to keep up the swimming. Is anyone else managing to exercise?

deus I'm exercising again finally after the first trimester slump. Managed to do a couple of runs as well as some yoga this week and I feel sooo much better. I am used to doing lots of exercise so I found it really hard when I didn't have any energy and couldn't do anything.

Lying in bed feeling the baby kick! It started as bubbles popping at the weekend but it's certainly getting more definite by the day I can only usually feel it when I'm lying down.

Good luck with your scan tomorrow saras.

Hello finally found the thread!
Not managing as much exercise as I'd like here. I got the Pilates DVD that someone recommended and Erin o'Brien DVD (that one always leaves me sore) and the occasional yoga session. I can get free swimming in Bristol, but haven't braved it yet. Swimming costume too small now :(

Hello, happy new thread!
I've caught the baking bug too, myself and the mindees made white chocolate and raspberry cookies, coconut biscuits and banana muffins. Was a great way to spend a rainy day.

Hi all, wow we get through these threads quickly!
chinese it was me who requested to join the Facebook group. I've sent you a private massage with my real name and mentioned my MN name in my message on FB. Looking forward to joining the conversation there too. I must admit I was beginning to wonder what I'd done wrong not to be accepted in :) Had a severe case of FOMO!

Thread 8 already!! Hope everyone had a good day. I went to the theatre and the play was 3 and a half hours long, not good for me and bump, but took my wedge cushion which helped!

The Topshop Leigh jeans are going straight back, too big and more like leggings, very thin and not for me. Mission black maternity jeans is ON.

My friend/ colleague came in with her 4 month old today and he slept in my chest for an hour. It was divine, and good practise for emailing and snuggling at the same time!!

18 weeks!

Morning all. I feel so fat today. And so tired. Had a half an hour doze when I got to work. I want to go home.
