Mmm a rocket ice lolly is making me feel slightly better! I need to get on with my cleaning today as well! I've done the kitchen thoSmile

Crumbelina · 08/05/2015 12:21

Yep, me too Lady. No nausea, tiredness gone (managed to stay up until 2am watching the election) and my bloating has gone so I'm much less rotund with a small ball shaped stomach. 16 weeks tomorrow and I have less of a tummy than I did at 7 weeks, which is strange.

Off to Sketch today for lunch - if I can't drink booze then I'm going to spoil myself with food for the next 5 months!

mrswishywashy · 08/05/2015 12:22

I had two days of the glow but yesterday back to feeling exhausted. I did a night shift last night with now nine week old baby and he didn't sleep well past 2.30am. Going in tonight and am stopping 10.30pm feed as I think his sleep cycle is been disturbed with it. Pretty sure I have a bump under my fluffy tummy.

ehealy · 08/05/2015 13:33

Got all the all clear on bloods no sign of Downs or anything else. My iron levels are 14.7 which is apparently amazing high but good means I have super good blood making skills.... Who knew!

BowiesJumper · 08/05/2015 13:50

Lady I'm exactly the same! If I hadn't had a scan then I'd think I was imagining it all!

Bit depressed re the election results today, but at least it's Friday!!

Now I want an ice lolly. I've just had a diet coke, I've tried to really cut down on them, maybe one a week now, so I think I'm doing ok!

My sister (a midwife) saw a lady who drank 3 litres of full fat coke a day, and wasn't even aware it might not be all that good for her or her baby. So at least I'm nowhere near that bad!!

TakesTwoToTango · 08/05/2015 14:30

Yey for good results ehealy!

Laura I am with you on the feeling sick Hmm so hoping this goes soon.

Crumbelina I am so so envious of your lunch! Have a wonderful time and eat something spectacularly delicious for me please!

Not sure who said they are flying long haul today with a cold but good luck and hope you feel better soon.

Do we have any scanees today?

Lauramum23 · 08/05/2015 14:38

I have laid in my garden this afternoon I feel so sick I have to walk to get my kids shortly fresh air might wake me up!? I've managed to clean my kitchen and put some jacket spuds in the oven but that's all I can manage. I have just worked 3 days tho and I can clean tomorow!?

heloharris · 08/05/2015 15:43

I had my scan on Wednesday and all went well, yay. My first reaction was oh good there is something in there. Phew. Not imagining it. Here's the pic. Oh and due date one day forward to November 15th. My mum's already knitted a lovely blanket (she's a star knitter - so glad it's a winter baby, she can go crazy with the wool!)

Just eaten a doughnut, a whole bag of Tyrrell Furrows and then to make it a bit better, some blueberries.

Did an online food order at lunch - put in some Jammie Dodgers - been thinking about them for a few days now. Why?!

rebbles · 08/05/2015 17:03

My bump feels a bit more 'proper' now a bit harder and less bloating.
I weighed myself this morning and have actually lost 6lbs- I'm 14 weeks on Sunday! Confused
Think it is because for the first time in my life I have gone off chocolate and I used to eat a couple of bars a day! I feel better for it but never believed it would happen! I couldn't even give it up before my wedding!

ChicBabyP · 08/05/2015 17:39

Thank you Abbey and Snowsberrie for the reassurance and tips. You're right, I guess I will be more prepared. Unfortunately I won't have a choice though as I have high risk pregnancies at best of time ( I suffer from recurrent miscarriages for no apparent reason) so Drs are extremely cautious with me. I almost had dd at 38 weeks as they just wanted to get her out safe and sound. So I know they won't take any chances this time around. Apparently the risk of stillbirth with twin pregnancy shoots up after 37 weeks... I know I will just want them out safely at the end, even if that means having them early.

SnozzberryPie · 08/05/2015 18:00

Urgh, feeling really crappy and dp is working late so I am making dinner and getting dd to bed on my own today. I feel like the hormones have gone crazy today and have been nauseous and weeing constantly and cried this morning about the election results Blush

BowiesJumper · 08/05/2015 18:16

Great pic helo! Strong nose!

Gr33dyeggs · 08/05/2015 18:33

Evening all. Great news on scan helo& sorry you're feeling poorly laura.
It's been 2 weeks 2 days since my nt and bloods and I haven't has results - I'm working on the principle 'no news is good news' but a little anxious they may have gone awol! How long did others take?

NewMrsX · 08/05/2015 18:43

Thanks for all the lovely messages everyone! Still trying to get my head around it all. Been feeling really rough these past few days and I'd put it down to stress but now not so sure cus I've just been sick for the first time and I'm 14 weeks tomorrow. I'd been feeling less nauseas the past few weeks but it's hit me terribly today Sad

Boys names are going to be an issue for us too. If it was a girl we had several we agreed on and just had to choose one. For a boy I can't even think of one I like let alone get DH to agree to it. And I've been getting some very 'helpful' family suggestions already

NewMrsX · 08/05/2015 18:45

Glad they've booked you in so soon StAlphonso. Less than a week and you should have your results hopefully xx

Crumbelina · 08/05/2015 19:00

Thanks TakesTwo! Sketch is amazing! Smile Great decor and fabulous value for what you get: canapes, petit fours, coffee, a selection of starters and desserts etc. Definitely going back again in a few months.

We did a bit of shopping after and I had a "woah" moment in a changing room in Selfridges. I know lots of it was food/bloat but my God, my body is really changing now - eek!

cryingbabymess · 08/05/2015 19:15

Evening ladies! So I'm away for my best mates mums 50th this weekend and the lodge has a hot tub which they are all enjoying in their bikinis while I'm dangling my feet in! Hmm

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 08/05/2015 19:26

Mine took 2 weeks Gr33dy pretty sure they phone within a couple of days if high risk so yours sounds good to me.

Take good care of yourself newmrsx it's a lot to take in even though it's all ok

Why are boys names so hard? I feel like there are more girls names? Perhaps there are as for a girl you could just pick something e.g. a flower and it sounds ok. Boys names seem to be a bit more mainstream

bugoven · 08/05/2015 20:03

All looking good at the scan today for babybug2. We have told everyone and they all think we're crazy.

SnozzberryPie · 08/05/2015 20:34

Gr33d I agree with everyone else; they get in touch straight away with bad news, so the long delay is a good sign.

Its 8.30pm, dp is out, so I am in bed with the cat and a cup of camomile tea. Rock and roll!
