January 2017 babies

[RosieposiePuddingandPi]

I know there's already a thread up for early Jan babies but couldn't see one for the rest of Jan (probably as I'm jumping the gun a bit here!).

This is my first proper pregnancy and I'm a planner by nature so I need some kind of place to talk about this so I don't drive my DP mad!

Bit about me:
I'm 28
This is baby number one
EDD 6th Jan.

Anyone else want to join me?

Evans yes we have a Serg

Hi, do you mind if I join? First pregnancy, due 22nd Jan according my phone app! Very nervous!!

Can I creep in? I haven't actually POAS yet as I'm too scared and I had a very late period with BFN back in February. But I'm late, and if I am, will be due 25th January.

I'm very anxious, as my DS1 was very very prem, and I think that's why I'm not testing and not getting too excited about it all...

Not really had chance to check in this week! Have been looking after my nephew while my mum (who is his guardian) has been on holiday in florida... on top of all this baby stuff!! exhausted isnt the word!! however tonights the last night!

I have felt so nauseous this week and tired, i literally am just falling asleep in the middle of everything i start watching! i was having a bit of a thing for boiled eggs but thats vanished and now i cant seem to stand the smell of them!!

Iv started to research baby stuff, prams bottle brands etc. im only 6+2 so i know its early but we want to know how much were gonna have to save for stuff!!

Debating whether to have an early scan or try and hold out till 12 weeks... i still havent heard from midwifes, self referred 12 days ago, but i think the ones in our area are really behind atm so ill wait til next week to chase it up!

Chick so we do, my brain is absolute mush!!!

Tiny I love looking at things to buy! I'm feeling really snug about my short list of baby items required for the new baby. I'm sure I'll find more stuff to buy. So far it consists of:

Bugaboo board and seat (with cameleon3 adaptors) for toddler. We will use a combo of buggy board and sling, DD will be 3 when baby arrives
Chicco bed nest (we have a Moses basket for downstairs)
Baby monitor (ours broke)
Snugiwrap
Big muslins
Breastfeeding pillow

Smug, obvs. Not snug!

I need a double buggy, some muslins and I want a new ERF car seat. That's IT!! But then I did have a baby 14 months ago so...

Belfast I paid for a private one but it was only £40 which is great compared to some of the prices I've heard on here! It was transabdominal but I made sure I drank loads of water beforehand to help.
I'm fairly sure my husband doesn't think we need a thing Chicklade but I will be making a list too! That in itself is quite exciting

Sorry chickadee, my phone renamed u!

Welcome to the latest newcomers!
Signorita it's understandable that you're anxious, are you doing things like taking folic acid anyway? Wait until you're ready to test but make sure you're looking after yourself at the same time.

I really want to make an Amazon wishlist of things I'd like for this baby but will wait until after 12 weeks as I don't want to tempt fate. I'd like a medela breastpump (I had a tommee tippee with DS and it was awful), a new sling (DS's was boring but functional), a bednest and a sleepyhead.

Whats everyone upto tonight then? Best get used to these alcohol-free Friday evenings lol

I'm watching a documentary about some treasure in the Dead Sea.... We just came back from dinner at our favourite restaurant. I def missed the wine! Jan seems like a long way away I'm not sure I quite believe it.

What are you up to celeste?

I'm watchig the Eastenders doc about Peggy on the red button. Not quite a documentary about treasure in the dead sea

I'm worrying about having eaten undercooked pork, and feeling exhausted by wee beans antics today, she's not been happy bless her, teeth I think. Other than that I'm in bed me going to read for the rest of the evening

I'm sure the pork will be ok Evans.

Morning all!
I think it's finally time to jump aboard and join you - I got a BFP a couple of weeks ago and I've been lurking around here a bit but after a mc I've been very nervous to acknowledge that anything is happening. Thankfully I've been getting a lot of symptoms and got a 3+ on CB digi this morning so thought I'd get stuck in! Hello!

I've sent you a PM about the Facebook group Evans.

Congratulations Buffalo!

Hello Buffalo congratulations!

Congratulations buffalo! Your name has given mozzarella cravings...

Hi Buffalo! Congratulations!

Congratulations buffalo!
Foresttrees - I missed having wine with dinner too. My parents recently got us a subscription to a wine club. Boyf now has 11 bottles to drink by himself!

Waliking I feel your wine pain. My parents got us two big cases of lovely wine a couple of months ago and there's loads left. DH feels too guilty to drink it around me. I keep telling him it's fine but I think he's a bit scared of my hormones
