So it wasn't the Last Puke after all Sad

On another note, the Ovia app is telling me I should be eating 12 portions of fruit and veg a day. 12! How is that even possible? Even on a largely vegetarian diet I barely manage 5

six 😂 it's difficult isn't it, I don't want her wasting her money!

missis I saw that and thought it was crazy too! Plus with the ridiculous portions of carbs and protein too I don't understand how you are meant to eat that much of everything everyday and not be eating too many calories!?

With fraternal twins they have told me they closely monitor health and growth,if either are a concern they induce.
They don't like you to go over 37weeks,as they stop growing and tend to start losing weight.
Of course they also keep an eye on positioning, if presenting twin is breech they usually c sec- if 2nd twin is breech but first head down then they can turn twin 2 after twin 1 is born.

I am thinking about sterilisation after these two so depending what the procedure is I might just opt for c sec for both anyway but have to wait for next twin clinic to discuss that.

Anyone suffering with headaches? I'm getting a bad one about once a week and generally on a Sunday, which wipes me out for the whole day. Can't work out if it's something I'm eating differently at weekend or whether it's just because my bodies more relaxed. It's very odd.

MoonlightMojitos · 16/01/2017 08:33

mumof3 aw it's alot of unknowns isn't it! Have you had a csec before? You're at the front of the buss too aren't you? So probably be our first babies!

biscuit I've been getting a lot of headaches, sometimes for days on end. It's really crap. I had one yesterday I was sure was going to turn in to a migraine as was getting quite bad and was feeling sick but thankfully it didn't. I'm sure mine must be hormonal as I got a migraine every time I got AF before being pg. I think make sure you're drinking a enough and also eating regularly as blood sugar levels can give you one too but apart from that there's jot much you can do unfortunately:(.

Been to mothercare today and sorted the carseat, a few babygros and a grosnug sleeping bag :). Think I'll hold off getting anything else for a while now but it's hard now I've started!

Sixisthemagicnumber · 16/01/2017 17:36

In desperate to buy a few babygros moonlight but holding off until after the 20 week scan as we have lots of clothes left from ds3 so I want to
Know the gender before I start buying. Im totally expecting it to be another boy though.

MumofthreeandBean · 16/01/2017 17:38

I've never had a csec- other 3 were all natural 😕- only using tens for 2 of them

MumofthreeandBean · 16/01/2017 17:40

We went through the clothes we have been given today, a lot of boy stuff in newborn up to 6 months and lots of girl from 6 mths onwards 😊

For those not on Facebook, we had our 20 week scan today. Everything looks ok and as expected Smile I feel like that's another big milestone passed!

Oops! Just realised I forgot to crop my details off the photo! Does anyone know how you edit a post?

VeganMama83 · 16/01/2017 22:33

I had to report post and ask MN to remove for me x

I've done that just now, thanks Smile

MumofthreeandBean · 17/01/2017 09:18

I left my details on my first scan pic on here, don't think it got removed !?

Anyway getting bigger! Still got the gagging feeler every morning! I'm sure this passed quicker last time!

We are now looking into car seats, we were decided on the britax ?duo - from birth to 4 years, but now the practicality of having two in the car is making me think we need two carry type seats, I need room for dc in between the twins and if we all go out we need access to the seats in the boot which would mean using the boot door or taking a car seat out 😕
Bro in law has a maxi cosi pebble- but wondering what is a good value seat but obviously safe?? Any help ladies??

Haven't done much research into car seats tbh, just went for the one that comes with the travel system, joie gemm. It has good write-ups. I did consider getting a stage 0-4 seat to stay in the car but everyone I spoke to said it's much handier having a portable one when they're small.

Today the baby appears to be using my cervix as a trampoline. Have to say it's not the most pleasant sensation...
