apple congrats on your little girl!

And you leanne can't remember if I congratulated you or not!! Smile

The girls are making a comeback!

Turquoisetamborine · 21/12/2014 11:57

Omg I'm a nightmare at the moment shouting at my H. Anyone else like this? I'm normally placid but it's like I've got the worst PMT ever at the moment.
We are having family over today and he decided to cook a buffet from scratch, about 15 dishes of complicated stuff and I just can't be arsed for it. It's cost a fortune, he's making a mess and he's been in the kitchen for two days. I would have stuck some chilli in the slow cooker and be done with it.

KittyVonCatsington · 21/12/2014 15:42

Apple and leanne wonderful news on your baby girls!! Hooray for Team Pink!

Sounds stressful Turquoise. - at least today will be over soon! Stroke your bump, smile and you'll get through it.

leanne963 · 21/12/2014 18:17

piglet81 · 21/12/2014 19:36

Aww piglet baby boy :) is this your first DC?!

piglet81 · 21/12/2014 21:27

Yup, it's all new to me! Grin

Turquoisetamborine · 21/12/2014 23:03

Party went fine but I'm exhausted now. One person did complain I hadn't bought enough wine! Hello, I'm pregnant, I'm not drinking. Bring your own frigging wine!!

Congratulations on all the successful scans. Good mix of both sexes now I think.

Off to sleep now. Hope you all have a restful night

Sunshinesaz86 · 22/12/2014 10:32

The threads been quiet the last few days i assume its everyone being mega busy with xmas in just a few days.

mumxof3x · 22/12/2014 10:59

Hey ladies,

Quiet on here, it was my sons birthday on saturday so been super busy fri and saturday, then yesterday I just felt like rubbish.

Christmas in 3 days whooo, mega excited to see kids faces and also to get some space back in house lol. Well for a short while anyway. Really nervous about after christmas though, its when the rest of my family find out.

Hope everyone had a good weekend :) x

Threesoundslikealot · 22/12/2014 13:30

Hi, all. Good to see all the girls stacking up!

Today I am actually feeling real actual movement (20+2) and even saw a little kick too.

Chookford · 22/12/2014 13:54

turquiose glad you survived the party in the end

sun I'm having that too at exactly the same time, 4am on the dot I wake for a wee then can't back back to sleep for hours!

mum hope your son had a lovely birthday.

three hooray for actual kicks!! I can't wait for those!!

Sunshinesaz86 · 22/12/2014 14:23

Im not the only one then chook Im sure its our bodies getting us ready for sleepless nights to come, i will expect them once baby arrives, but pleaaase let me take advantage of sleep over the xmas period at least while im off. cry!

three kicks are very exciting, ive had no 'definite' kicks yet im 19+4 so anyday know, i bet it such a fab feeling! :)

Chookford · 22/12/2014 15:55

sun I am dreading goi back to sleepless nights. My dd sleeps for 13hrs solid it will be such a shock to the system waking up all through the night again! So yes at least let is sleep before you get here!!!

Titsalinabumsquash · 22/12/2014 16:03

Good afternoon ladies Smile

I have the second part of my scan tomorrow, hopefully this naughty squiglet will let them get the measurements they need this time.

I have a lovely new bag waiting for me upstairs, after years of a battered lumpy one I'm very keen to get into bed tonight. Grin

good luck tomorrow tits for scan part 2! hopefully baby will behave! Smile. I've still got 2 weeks to wait for the 2nd part of mine!! driving me mad waiting just want it sorted so I have no worries. I've been told to drink a fizzy drink beforehand. x

BeanCalledPickle · 22/12/2014 17:33

Oh man I am SO FAT. I caught sight of myself and wondered who the fat blighter was. Am 21 weeks and 7kg up already! Urgh. Last time I gained 20 and never lost it all. Really don't want to do that again. Anyone else on the fat bus??

Chookford · 22/12/2014 19:22

tits good luck for the 2nd part of your scan tomorrow!

piglet81 · 22/12/2014 19:33

Bean, I'm 20 and a bit weeks and I've put on a stone so you're not alone! I feel a bit blubbery!

Turquoisetamborine · 22/12/2014 22:42

mumof3 why don't the rest if your family know you're pregnant yet?

Hope the scan goes well tits. Mine was today and everything looks great. So so happy!

I hope those of you who haven't felt movement yet feel it soon. It really is amazing, I love it and get it all the time now at 19+4. Mostly in the last week.

Bean I've put on 8 pounds so far. No idea if that's normal or not.

Chookford · 22/12/2014 22:51

turquiose lovely news on the good scan... Congrats!

Justyouwaitandsee · 22/12/2014 23:35

I am 22wks tomorrow and have so far put on 5kg/11lb, but most of that is since the start of the second trimester. Bump feels huge and is very obvious. Baby kicks hard all the time and you can actually see the movement through my clothes now. For the first time the other day it felt like it was stamping directly downwards onto my cervix/vagina, which was really uncomfortable. Has anyone else had that yet? I am finding I get quite breathless when I walk...

Purpleshoes2 · 23/12/2014 07:20

sun some nights I'm barley sleeping because I'm nipping to the loo every hour or so - I give up trying to stay in bed past 7

Loads of scans coming in which is nice - only a week or so till mine (New Years eve!) I'm really looking forward to it, I'm still bleeding and even though I've heard the heart beat it will make me feel so much better to see the bump.

I haven't weighed myself so I've no idea how much weight I've put on O.O where I have put it on it's in really awkward places - I've also never had boobs before and now their massive!

Sunshinesaz86 · 23/12/2014 07:48

Oh no purple that's no fun, at least I'm getting sleep until 4 which sounds better than what your experiencing! Good luck for your scan next week! Sure it's a worry for u, but sure everything will be perfect.

I also have no idea how much wait I've put on, I didn't have much of an appetite in the first trimester however that has definitley changed. I've never really been one for weighing myself and don't own scales, usually go off clothes fitting me. I've definitley put in some my bums a bit wobblier and boobs huge but can't complain really!

One more day in work for me then off for 9 wahoooo, I hope everyone who's already finished are enjoying their well earned breaks! Once Xmas is out the way it'll be count down to maternity! Argh!!!! Grin

TwinkleTee · 23/12/2014 08:41

Sun, purple and chook absolutely the same for me here too. We should form a 4:00am club. I wake up for a wee and then toss and turn until at lest 6am... 45 mins before my alarm Xmas Hmm

I'm also feeling massively fat. Had a bit of a hormonal sniffle last night because of it.... Thank jeebus DH was supportive and said all the right things, otherwise I would have been in a bit of a state!

20 Week scan on NYE, which is looming... I'm a bit scared! But always get this way before scans and appointments.
