April 2015 thread 6: our Christmas puddings are half cooked, now bring on the glow!

[BrixtonBunny]

We were getting perilously close to being full up, hope no one minds!

That's horrible BonjourMinou! You are bigger than me but I've been pretty small until about 34 weeks with my other two so not surprised. I think your coat probably makes you look bigger. You certainly don't need to explain yourself or your weight to a total stranger, I'm really on your behalf

You're all right about pelvic floor I am just being lazy and irresponsible on the grounds that I seemed to bounce back quickly after last pregnancy.

X posts mswibble, horrible day!!!! Sorry to hear about your car :( welcome to team blue

And congrats FizzyBubbly!

Sorry to hear that, mrswibble, that sounds horrendous! Glad you're both OK. You've definitely earned a nice restful cup of

And welcome to Team Blue! xxx

Bonjour you've got a decent bump but you don't look fat, just pregnant. She was being rude and inappropriate.

mswibble that sounds very dramatic, hope you're not too shaken up. Glad the scan went well and congratulations on your little boy!

Congrats to all others with scans today - Fizzy, Mel and Minstrelle (I think! Scrolling on phone isn't the easiest)

(I have wifi!) Bonjour you deffo don't look fat just pregnant but you are huge if I'm honest lol! So I'm not surprised at the ladies reaction.

bonjour that is SO rude!!! I'd have just slunk off too though...

mswibble how scary, glad you are ok. And on team blue!!! I think we are overtaking! I wonder how many surprises are boys?

Dh has just said I look so tired I look grey and he is worried I am ill! Am on duty tomorrow... Wouldn't mind the day off sick... Somehow I think it unlikely though, 11hr day no breaks no lunch here I come..

I know, I am jealous with all of your small bumps, I was big with DD too. In maternity clothes at 9 weeks. , long before I was read to tell anyone. I went right off tea though, so it was pretty obvious to all and sundry...

I think your bump is lovely, I can't wait to have a proper bump that people recognise as being pregnant. Whenever I tell someone new they say 'but you're not showing at all!' and I have to point out my bump. I feel way bigger, I want people to notice! Embrace the bump!

Lol, it seems the grass is always greener, banana!

Glad you're ok mrswibble, what a horrid thing to happen.

Well done on scans today everyone.

I've started decking the halls for Christmas. Going to go out tomorrow and get some more decs though - it's all looking a bit too tasteful ATM.

20+1.

Haven't posted for a while, although have been keeping up with reading the thread.
Had my 20week scan today, and all appears fine, such a relief! Don't think I realised how nervous I was until it was over. Didnt find out the sex so team surprise for us!
Have also just started pregnancy yoga, enjoyed it and feels very good to just take and hour or so out just for me and the bump. Nearly fell asleep for the relaxation part though!

Blah had to crack out the corsadil mouthwash. It's so disgusting but after a week of bleeding gums down one side when i brush, I have had to admit defeat. My dentist is so unreliable the last few times I've been past (it's in the same big building as my doctors) it's been all barricaded up. Apparently my dad got in a few weeks ago so they are still open but I know they will just say it's hormone related and not to worry. I've got my name down for DHs dentist but it depends when they decide to take anyone on.
My tongue feels all weird now.

Thanks for mentioning pelvic floor again reminded me to do some. I think we need to say it at least once a day to remind us all.

Bonjour your bump is gorgeous! You do look very pregnant but that's lovely - I still mostly look lumpy and fat x

Eek baby has hiccups for the first time that I've noticed - I can see my belly moving and really feel it Lovely moment.

bonjour you're a similar size to me, I suppose I maybe am showing quite a lot but it's solid bump so not much I can do about it! My big bum is a different matter altogether Just ignore the rude comments, I think your bump is lovely!

msw sorry to hear about the scar car accident but congrats on the scan, and congrats to everyone else with recent scans!

I'm in the corsadil crew too lauren although I'm using listerine smart rinse (the kids one) lol coz the other stuff is too strong and brings on the sickness I'm still getting. Dentist said that was fine though and not to brush or mouthwash after I've been sick as I'll make it worse.

Dreading getting up at half 4 to get the plane for fear of not being able to get to a toilet when sickness strikes but ill be happy once I'm safely landed in Alicante!
hope your enjoying your baby moon Saire :)

I think your bump looks fab bonjour

Good for you mel you have to do what feels right for you and if feeling better means taking the meds then it can only be a good thing. Happy mum = happy baby.

Absolutely tragic story about the Young woman and her baby. Poor poor woman.

And so sorry to hear about the car accident msw Are you okay?

Had they found the baby yet? Last I saw they had found a body of a woman. I only tend to read the news at work.

Yes Lauren I think they found the baby not far from the mother. Not sure on the details but one of the other chaperones at Dd1s panto rehearsal last night told me. It's so sad, I was praying the baby would be found safe and well but not to be unfortunately.

I have another busy day ahead, off to buy wallpaper so we can finish the girls bedroom later and then the primary school fayre after school. At least we have a night off from rehearsals!

Yes they've found baby on the cliffs edge near where she was found. So sad.

Yes very sad, shame the hospital didn't pick up she was distressed earlier. It's not like she could have been fine and dandy when they checked on her.

The maternity ward in my hospital has a locked door that you can't get in and out of without a member of staff knowing. Perhaps that hospital needs one of those.
