missmoomoo will they let her in with you? Our rules (not sure how strictly they are applied) are one adult + 'your own' children allowed in with you.

We could just say boy, girl or don't know!

MissMooMoo · 12/12/2016 18:53

savage yes our rules are just 3 people including the mother

Badgerbird · 12/12/2016 20:57

Has anyone seen or heard of any good pregnancy magazines? I like to buy a couple of mags to flop about and read at Crimbo Xmas Smile

Sipperskipper · 12/12/2016 21:13

Got 20w scan a week tomorrow, just me & DH. We already know we are having a girl after having Harmony test.

Can't believe we are all coming up to half way!

1004Rise · 12/12/2016 21:40

Ooooo Badger, that's a good idea! Hadn't even thought to look!

lucieloos · 12/12/2016 21:43

I've bought gurgle and mother & baby magazines. They aren't exclusively pregnancy related but usually have a few pregnancy type articles and good to look at the product reviews etc

1004Rise · 12/12/2016 21:48

Has anyone seen the thread "Dick things your kids have done" in AIBU? I am in tears of laughter, but now seriously wondering what we've let ourselves in for!!

dreamofhungarianlanterns · 12/12/2016 22:00

Rise I have read some of that thread - 12 week sonographer said they think mine has a willy so I'm terrified of the pissing in everything stories now!!

Savage another Friday morning 20 week scan here yay

After counting down the sleeps until my first glass of wine last Friday night I had one at xmas meal out and had a funny turn. I think it was a combination of heat, noise, rich food, small glass of delicious NZ Sav Blanc, mulled wine in the poached pear starter, Cointreau in the orange pudding... it did not say this on the menu but I probably should have guessed Blush Has anyone else had blurry flashing vision, loss of hearing, sudden sweat?? Luckily colleague noticed and took me outside, was all over in 3 minutes.

Barnes79 · 12/12/2016 22:07

I'll join the night pelvic/back pain group too! I'm already on the moany middle of the night group Sad I initially tried a pillow between my knees and ankles (it worked better there than higher up) and sleeping on my sides was best. I've since added a single duvet on the top of my mattress which also helped a bit, but just bought a dream genie pillow which is stopping me rolling on my back. I still wake up each night in pain but it appears to be later in the night, and once or twice, compared to the 8 times previously almost hourly! I may try a double duvet folded in half later this week to see if it helps.

I had a bad pelvis and back problems before getting pregnant so have been getting these symptoms since week 4! Can't wait for the pain to stop Confused

RasperryInAMelon · 12/12/2016 23:18

Rise just spent the last hour wetting myself! The coke in the fish tank particularly ticked me!

lullaby23 · 13/12/2016 03:48

savage I just can't imagine it would taste nice, not that I'm a huge wine snob or anything!

missmoo I really fancied Appletise and bought a pack and it made me feel sick, I was so upset! I've had to have a similar conversation with DH as he seems to think things magically make their way into the dishwasher etc. To be fair he has been much more helpful and tidying up without being asked.

badger acupuncture did wonders for my back pain after DS was born, who'd have thought? The physio called it dry needling but same thing as far as I can tell.

Haven't bothered with a pregnancy pillow, one between the knees does help with spd later on but touch wood I'm sleeping fine so far. I will be dusting down my boppy for breastfeeding again, really helpful before they can hold their heads up, even managed to feed hands free sometimes.

lucie sounds amazing I can't believe you could see hair!

Had 16wk appointment today all looking fine. Placenta is high anterior again but I am feeling a little bit of movement already which is nice.

teainbed · 13/12/2016 07:39

I hope you're all going to get some help for your sore bits! I'm going to a class run by the antenatal physios later at the hospital. I had quite bad SPD the last time I was pregnant so I'm keen to nip it in the bud as physio last time completely cured it.

Gurtie28 · 13/12/2016 08:39

Wow that took me a while to catch up!! Been so poorly with yet another cold - sinus headache was so bad I couldn't look at any kind of phone/computer/TV screen so got behind with this thread!!
Feel a million times better now, and ready to start enjoying being pregnant!!! Do you think that's possible??

I have re added myself as I seem to have disappeared.

savagehk · 13/12/2016 09:36

You're now there twice MissMooMoo :) 20th or 17th?

MrsJW15 · 13/12/2016 11:15

I'm really annoyed, I managed to make it down to the only pregnancy class my work gym has all week - pregnancy yoga. Only to find out that they'd moved it half an hour earlier and hadn't updated the online timetable. So I couldn't go. I was really looking forward to some stretching to deal with these achy muscles.

MissMooMoo · 13/12/2016 12:33

Oops! I was moved to the 17th at my 12 week scan. I will fix it again Blush

MrsJW I found agood pregnancy yoga app for the iPad.... there are no classes near me but I found this good, and I can do it when I have the energy not stuck to one class a week.... It's called Pregnancy Yoga with Tara Lee .You can get a taste of the sessions before you have to pay.

FoxMulder · 13/12/2016 14:24

Hi guys, how's it going? I've been away for a week and had a lot of catching up to do! I've totally forgotten which points I was going to reply to now. That's the problem with mn! 18 weeks tomorrow and almost feeling not sick now. Whoo! 20 week scan not until new year. DH doesn't understand why I would like it before Christmas because he is 100% confident that everything is fine. I guess if it wasn't then that would thoroughly fuck up Christmas anyway. I can't be accused of being an optimist Grin

FoxMulder · 13/12/2016 14:25

Oh, alcohol free Koppaberg tastes just like the real thing.
