New thread! Previous one here.

Thanks for the new thread, OTHM!

Can we have have an ice cream parlour (b&j or Haagen dazs?) and a frankfurter cafe please othm ?

Thanks OTHM Love the name :)

I've gone off frankfurters again so someone else will have to set that up

Could definitely use some ice cream though, excellent idea

Thanks manatee

Is it wet and miserable where everyone else is too? We've ended up lighting a fire, it's so dank and rainy here. In June!

Yup miserable here too :(

We ordered dominos on the grounds that dh is recovering from surgery and I'm pregnant, we couldn't possibly cook.

DH wants to start taking a weekly picture of my belly starting tomorrow. It will be massive and bloated from the dominos.

Oh you ladies must be psychic! I just fancied some ice cream and was so pleased to find some mint choc chip in the freezer yummy! I did manage peas with tea so justified the ice cream haha.

Thanks for the new thread manatee! How dare you go off frankfurters....oh well, more for me (and brickie)

Very wet here although I love the smell after it rains...lovely lush & green!

We also had a dominos tonight, just could not manage cooking.

Wet here but def no frankfurters. Magnum ice creams however are being consumed at an embarrassing rate (I blame DH)

Hi Everyone
We are up north Camping just now - so not an easy thing to do whilst pregnant! So.....tiring & cold!! Although still having fun sitting round the camp fire with my Alcohol Free Kopparberg
Still not sickness - just the sore boobs. The weeks are flying in!! Still trying to keep as positive as possible. Xx

wynsey I also feel they are going quick! And oyster I've been doing pics on my app and looking at it I can see buba growing! I'm signing off for tonight ladies:)

Keen to do the photos, don't have the energy! Thanks for the new thread manatee

Thank you for the new thread and ummm yum yum ice cream

Thanks for the new thread manatee

amy I don't get much morning sickness (I dont think I've ever vomited in pregnancy) or anything really (apart from fatigue and bad skin, bit bigger boobs but still fitting old bras). I have two healthy DC. I think that the whole bit about sickness = healthier baby, is just to reassure women (who are v unwell) that their babies are growing healthily?

Have had loads of cramps and twinges yest and overnight. Not sure what that's about. Hopefully just means baby is having a growth spurt . 10 + 4 today.

My 2 yr old is also driving me crazy (sorry I forget who mentioned it). So demanding and constantly needing to be picked up (and she's a big 2 yr old). She should have just turned three by the time DC3 is born thank goodness. Have to somehow manage potty training in the next 6 months tho. Urgh.

Weighed myself and I'm down 2 kilos from the weight taken by my doc 2.5 weeks ago. Clearly was bloated by late afternoon when original weight was taken. Still a bit more than I'd like!

Morning all just marking place. Thanks for new thread manatee.

Thanks manatee.

Thanks for new thread manatee

I don't know how all you guys do it with other DC's .... I literally slept on and off all day yesterday!! Feeling so much worse last few days .. Hormones going mad too!!

Coffeenut - we need to do potty training too! Wanted to start it already but been too ill. Feels weird that a bunch of strangers know I'm pregnant but not my best friends. My scan is only a week and a half away so not long now!
Who was it that said sausage rolls were good? I want to thank u for the idea, even tho mine a Vege ones it's really helped. X

Hi all! Thanks for the new thread manatee.

my first opportunity for a lie in this morning and I've been knackered all week...and I wake up naturally just before 8am! Going to try desperately to go back to sleep. Nausea came back last night and this morning but at least it's not 24/7 anymore.

12 week scan is in 11 days, on official countdown now! Who's scan is first?

Glad the time is going quick for some of you ladies, from 4-8 weeks went so slow for me, but since having my first scan at 8+3 I have to admit it's going quicker!

Thanks for the new thread, just marking place as on VERY slow middle of nowhere wifi

I have a scan on Friday at 10+1 but that's just to check that there is still a bean in there. As you can tell my paranoia has not eased yet
