Evening all, have been reading the last couple of threads and feel very much at home with all the food talk

EDD is 21St Dec and this is my first pregnancy. Can I join?

I'm the same with portion size with my lunches. I can eat the usual portion of soup but any normal food it's half my usual. Today I've hardly had any nausea until I tried to eat dinner.

Welcome purple of course you can join! The more the merrier 😊

Glad to hear it's not just me with the differing portion sizes!
Welcome purple

Can't find who asked now, but dinner for me this evening was a cheat..... it was a bit of a freezer tea, we had breaded fish with chips (homemade chips, SW style!) and beans. Oops!

Home from my second shift today! After a delicious homemade stroganoff last night decided to treat ourselves to a quick McDonald's! 🙊

Hi everyone - thread 7 - wow!

SO i had a gender scan today and ITS A GIRLl!!

That means i will have 3 daughters..... poor dh is going to super outnumbered.
I am very excited. CCan;t stop thinking of names now.......

Wow another girl! Congratulations! I hope we're updating the spreadsheet so we know how many of each we're up to now.

Yay another girl! I won't give up hope of a girl.
After all your wonderful dinner ideas we had a pasta bake ready meal (how lazy could I get!)

Congrats on being team pink Unicorns
I'm so excited to find out what we have at the birth.

Woo hoo @MotherofUnicorns !

Congrats unicorns, this is so exciting. Less than two weeks till we find out hopefully.

Just checking in

Morning Lola!

I saw every hour apart from 3am last night. Rubbish.

Hi everyone. I was on the previous thread and had an envelope with the gender of our baby that we wanted to open on our anniversary.

Well I was able to hold out for the 2 weeks and we opened it yesterday to celebrate our first year of marriage. The doctor wrote that we are 90% having a girl!

How do I add myself to the spreadsheet :)

Congratulations! 💗
Just click on it, you should be able to edit.

Thanks Biker and Monty, will try your suggestions! I have a wedding in a couple of weeks so praying my skin will be a bit better (it has improved from the early days but slow progress!).

Bluebell I have the opposite problem, my portion sizes are getting larger

Hi PurpleK1tty - how have you been keeping?

Congratulations Unicorns!! Another girl - the teams are definitely more balanced now!

Absolutely sick of the nausea, stomach upsets and generally feeling bleugh! Moody Mama to be today xx

Hey guys!! I'm back from a hectic weekend and am having a 'feet up' day as my body has been aching! Need to do a serious catch up with this thread!!

Glasto was brilliant but harder than usual, standing for long periods was uncomfy, sitting on the ground was uncomfy, sleeping was near impossible.. and yet I had a blast. It was so worth it

Consultant appt in the morning, so that should be interesting!!

Good morning hormones.
I'm lying in bed eating a banana and drinking some lucozade (healthy breakfast) and I have tears in my eyes and that chocked feeling in my throat. Why do I feel like crying? I'm reading tweets from teachers! WTF.

Ah Scots welcome to the ridiculous hormones club! I thought it was just me so far. I cry at random times for no reason. I get angry or sad for no reason. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Lovely pregnancy email this morning.

Hello all! Hope you're all well!

Welcome purple

Congratulations on all the girls, they have been needed to level out the boys lol.

Carlotta I hear you on the nausea/bleugh front. Still taking anti-sickness meds here. Now wondering if I'm just going to have to stick with them throughout!

15+5 here today, I'm back at the midwife on the 3rd and hoping to get my letter for 20w scan soon so I can start counting down lol

Snap scots, except mine was titled 'smoking weed in pregnancy'. You have me wanting lucozade now!

Oh that made me LOL ScotsLamb! I think that email says everything you need to know about BabyCentre and the forums!
