[Toast85]

So here we are with the third thread, hope you all find it!

still plenty of time ladypug i wont be buying any of the big things until after 20 weeks anyway.

you'll get lots of advice on here once you start seeing things you might be interested in.

Thanks Gingerbread :-)

if i see any good buys i will share

Hi guys just checking in as I've been away for a fortnight. Sounds as though lots of you are shopping around. I'm in the 'cant do anything until the 20wk scan' camp so I think I'll have to come back to the information people have posted later on!
I've bought lots of lovely loose trousers (which seem to be very in this summer anyway- bargain) and I can just about squeeze into some of my jeans still (14+4).
nutella they couldn't measure the nucheal fold at my scan either so I'm waiting for bloods in a few weeks. Fingers crossed!

Thanks Kezod. The Midwife said it could be done anytime up too 20 Weeks, so it'll be done at my next appointment in 3 weeks.

Am 14+1 and brought a pair of Leggings last night, as some of my trousers/ jeans are getting a little tight and uncomfortable. I search for 'non see through' ones. so hopefully there ok Doesn't help that i still feel like am eating like a blemming horse

sure leggings and loose trousers will kp you going for a while. im living in leggings (i have now bought maternity ones), maxi dresses and got one pair of jeans. might get some jogging bottoms too for them days where just want to really relax.

I'm 18 weeks today and still in my regular size 8 trousers. I've definitely started developing a bump this week so will probably be out of them by next week! !
I have bought a couple of maternity tops from H and M that are really pretty which I sometimes wear!
How is everyone elses bump coming along?

Ps Kezod they couldn't do the nuchal at my scan either!
I just got my quad results yesterday and it said I have a one in 50 thousand chance of downs.
Can't wait for my twenty week scan in two weeks! !

My bump is huge! I'm 17wks today.

Wow Mountain, 18 weeks and virtually no bump you are lucky. I'm only 13+5 and have found I have a definite bump in the evenings now...think it's when I'm tired so I'm not using my stomach muscles so much! Quite like it though as at least I look pregnant and not just as if I've been eating too much! Most of y my work dresses are empire line anyway so they all still fit which is good. Definitely need to purchase some maternity trousers though.

Off for a little anniversary weekend away tonight and have to be seen in a bikini Struggled a lot with nice things to wear for dinner too - can't wear jeans and loads of my other stuff is just too tight - or stuff that is tight but supposed to be makes me self conscious because I think I just look fat and not pregnant! Can't wait until I look unmistakeably pregnant!

Thanks sparklesandbubbles. It's definitely growing but I can hide it easily. Looking forward to getting bigger and feeling proper kicks!

Well today I ordered a jacket potato in a cafe and asked if the Mayo was homemade and the chap smiled and said nope, it's pasteurised so you're ok. I must look proper pregnant!!

gingerbread I know you are not planning to buy anything big until after the 20 week scan but I thought it was worth mentioning that I had a brochure in the post from winstanly prams and they are offering 20% off all bebecar prams during the month of May. If you ordered at the end of May will you have had the 20 week scan by then?

Evening all. 18 weeks tomorrow and bump getting more obvious - pretty much everyone at work has twigged now and it's hard to hide! My maternity jeans are a little big still but so much more comfy that my regular jeans which don't do up anymore - and I have some belly bands but they always make me feel like my jeans are going to fall down! I just realised how close we are all getting to halfway, it's gone so quick! I remember it dragging so much with my first pregnancy

ooh super that is a fantastic bargain. scan is 3rd of june. could always have it delivered to my dms though if the price is good. i think the shop i viewed it in gave 15% discount and half price matching car seat but i will have a look on winstanlys to see how much they are.

thank you so much!

i am looking out for the fisher price newborn to toddler rocker chair thing if anyone sees any good offers on those

its scary to think almost halfway through although if theyre going to insist on me having my first scan date ive got 5 more wks to go (my bump says different).

just looked, the one or two i am interested are already discounted and with the extra 20% off its then pretty much in our budget ive been trying to look at other more practical not as pretty prams but i just dont love any like i love the bebecar!

HI ladies, haven't managed to keep up the last couple of weeks. I hope everyone is well?
I had an early scan today to find out the sex... its a little boy
Anyone else found/finding out?

Oh sleepy a boy! Congratulations!
I think were not going to find out....i think.

Just a reminder to anyone who wants to join the facebook group just send me a pm and I'll hook you up.

ooh sleepy how lovely! is this your first dc? were you bothered whether boy or girl?

im finding out. 4 weeks on wednesday, too far away just yet ha! i am sure its a boy and would like a boy but like everyone probably im happy with either

Popping in just to keep on the thread!! 15 weeks today, and have started buying some stuff, but lets just say DH are having a little disagreement about what we actually need, and he thinks I need to slow down and not buy everything now. I'm just trying to be organised!! I'll try and be good and not buy anything for a bit. Might have to sit on my hands.

No sign of a bump yet, getting a little jealous of all the bumps and movements going on around here!! Never mind, it'll be my turn soon :)

Hi Scattered :-) 15 weeks today too! I bought my first thing today - a little sleep suit :-)

I realise everyone has bought more but I just wanted a little token something :-) x

It's my 3rd 1st was stillborn, I have DD 4 and now this little fella we was happy either way probably slightly more hoping for a girl for DD but we're all happy we had a cheeky 4d look aswell,

so sorry about your previous loss sleepy.

oh well a little boy in the mix will be nice and im sure dd will love playing mini mummy to him!

lovely to hear of all the little buys. im another one who likes to be organised so think im actually doing quite well in that i havent bought anywhere near as much as id like to

Hi sleepy. I had a scan at 16 + 6 and the sonographer said it's most likely a girl. Not buying any girly things until after the twenty week scan to double check (as much they can!).
