The angry pubes of bumsnet grad bus!

Come put your feet up in the Zen den and let the dh's wait on us hand and foot whilst we nurture the fruit of their loins in our bellies :-)

Hi girls, I'm back from my hols! Feel like absolute shit. Been awake since 4am (3am British time!) and both the airport transfer and 3.5 hour flight were the longest in my life. Feeling nauseous, exhausted and only able to pick at food today, no idea what I want to eat. Wish I could eat nothing but it makes me feel so sick! Dh is trying to compete with me in the nausea and tiredness stakes which pisses me off. He's blaming the goats cheese on his pizza last night, whatevs.

Hope the bleeding was normal. If it were me I'd be straight down the EPU but that's just me. Oh but with my EPU you need a referral from GP or midwife.

Too tired to remember what else has happened sorry :-( x

chops! Hope you had a great time - do you have a great tan? Sorry you're feeling poo. Tell DH to shut his chops! What does he know about sickness - morning sickness is the worst, I feel for you.

Welcome back Chops! Sorry you are feeling so rough - the flight back to Sarajevo was bad enough for me the other day I find that just being tired makes me feel sicky so that combined with feeling dodgy at times anyway just wasn't a good combo! Hope you had a lovely time away

Mummy - think we should have stats here!!

You okay Heir?

Yes I am fine!

So here is the next heir to the throne :)

All ok except the little bugger absolutely refused to get in the right position for the nt test, no matter what I did. So it's back for more bloods in a couple of weeks.

Aw heir! Amazing, isn't it? Was there much wriggling going on? I'm convinced in my 20 w scan with ds that he was smiling.

A little bit but it was mostly lazy like its daddy!

Hee hee! They say try having a fizzy drink or some chocolate before a scan to encourage them to get moving! You'll have to try it at the next scan. :) x

Oh lovely Heir! Absolutely amazing!

Heir lovely pic.
Stats would be good mummy what should we have. Would be good to see how many weeks everyone is.

Lovely piccy heir sorry you're needing to go back for the other part of the test but at least you can see you little one again so soon.

Heir your pic is amazing! You don't want them wiggling too much at the 20w scan or you won't get to find out if you're team pink or blue! Does everyone want to know or do some here like surprises?

I created a sheet for the Jan due dates thread so have a look at this and see if you're happy or if you would like anything added or removed?

Then give me your stats!

With link now.... STATS

I can't open that mummy!!! I'm in my phone though so maybe that's why?

I want a surprise (we didn't find out last time!) BUT dh wants to find out. He wanted to last time too but I got my own way.

I think we will let dd cast the deciding vote. If she wants to know... we will. If not... we wont!

Mummy thanks so much for doing the stats...I can't seem to open the link though? It comes up with 'Google Sheets' and an email and password are needed??

I think we will most probably find out what we are having....will be too tempted!! Will you find out Mummy?

I might have done the link wrong try this

wotsits I hope your dd says she wants to know so we can all find out too!!

The stats list has the following:
Name, Age, Pg with DC #, MC #, Cycles TTC, Location, BFP date, DPO at BFP, Booking in date, Scan date, boy or girl & EDD

I will definitely be finding out. I found out with DS and it really helped me choose a name and bond even more and I am a bit of a control freak and nothing is in your control when you are pregnant but I could at least buy the right colours and feel prepared.

Thanks mummy!

Chopsface, 35, dc#1, 0 mc, 30 cycles, bfp April 14th at 17dpo, Bristol, EDD Dec 21st (may change at scan)

Still don't have a scan date or booking in date. I want to call the midwife hub to make sure I'm in the system but dh wants to wait until after tomorrow's early scan.

Urgh no matter what or how much I eat today I feel completely empty and sick! Wtf?

Yeah I agree with that Mummy. If we are having a boy I'm not sure how we are going to agree on a name! At least finding out will give us a bit of time!!

chops I am starving at the moment but already put on 4lbs so trying to ignore my starvation and stop eating so much!

tessie we can't agree on names full stop - there are lots that DP likes but I am really fussy. Plus I love DS's name so it will be difficult to find one I love as much as that.

It's difficult Mummy. We also find if we like a name it doesn't go well our surname...We will get there, we have to! Baby can't be nameless!!

It is so hard, also FIL died a couple of months ago so DP wants to use his name if bean is a boy but I don't - I hate using relatives names as first names - but like them as middle names. My DS's middle name is my Grandads who dies a couple of years before he was born so hopefully he will agree to that. Also I sort of want baby to take my surname. We are not married and DS has my exes name and I hate it and wished I had given him my name as he doesn't even see his birth Dad. But he isn't happy with that either.

I put on 3lbs last week mummy!

mummy if your baby doesn't take your dp's name if you did get married he would have to adopt the child! Wierd law. My sis wasn't married when she had her 2 dd's. She double barreled their surnames to avoid that risk. Then they got married 2 years ago and sis took her dh's name and they had to change the kids names to his alone by deed poll. All too complicated for my liking. Just to make you aware in case you didn't know.

When it came to talking about whether we'd find out the sex I said "yea-h!" And he was like "really?! You wouldn't want a surprise?!" So I guess we still have that to talk about again! As for names, we decided that many years ago when we were first together and they've not changed!
