'Due in the new year the next generation - who ate all the pies'

[Bettymamma]

I hope you all find this. I'll write a proper message once I see it works!xx

Def not worth wasting time worrying about labour - twice now I haven't made it that far! Well, 45 minutes of labour with ds before they whipped him out but I don't think that counts.

I saw the consultant today (am 16 weeks). He asked if the pg was planned and then asked if I'd considered getting sterilised during my next cs? He took me off for a scan to see where the placenta was, I thought it might be a bit shallow to ask if he could see the baby's gender so I kept quiet...

Anyhow, baby is fine. Placenta doesn't appear to be attached to the scar but it is too early to tell. I have a stream of scans and appointments lined up to check on it and on my scar, and hopefully I'll be having a cs in January sometime.

Gawd, I haven't been around for a good few days and I seem to have missed so much! I can't keep up with you lot, I swear.

I haven't had chance to read all the postings but there's a lot of birth chat on here. Do you mind if I just keep sticking my head in the sand? Anyway, I've already booked the stork...

Quick question about the baby kicking though. I think I might have felt two little kicks tonight, just after I coughed. They were very low down in my belly, almost like little nudges. They were like nothing else I've felt before, very definite - nothing like fart-building for example (I know, I know, I'm just a classy knda girl). I'm 17+3. What do you think? Be honest, now.

Thanks Mummy. When are you due? Are you well?

im not due until 29th jan have you had your 20wk scan yet i dont have mine until 17th sept

I've got my scan a week today. Can't wait. Been feeling baby lots lately and think i've felt it a couple of times externally too.
So this is your 3rd then? how old are your other two?
I'm not too bad thanks, feeling very tired as DD has only recenly cut her first batch of teeth and is suffering quite a lot. She used to go straight through the night and now she isn't so i'm feeling quite exhausted with the lack of sleep. Other than that i'mn fine and dandy! yawn yawn! hee hee

are you going to find out the sex of the baby? i am i have 2 dds whos 4 and 2 this is my last 1 defenitly
iv felt my baby move for at least a week now im 16wks still have ages

some people say im mad having 3 kids as i will only be 24 when the 3rd is born

im starting to feel more tired more now

i take it your dd is called lottie nice name

Nope thats my nickname.
We didn't find out what we were having and loved not knowing, so we are going to do the same this time and wait. It's so exciting. I'm convinced it's a boy tho but then think maybe i'm just wishful thinking as we would love one of each.
I dont think you're mad, each to thier own. If you're happy then it shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks.
I started feeling this baby move at 16 weeks too, such a fab feeling isn't it!

whats ur dd called mine are lauren and holly
were going to find out the sex we didnt with lauren as the 1st is better as a surprise but we found out with holly i would love a boy this time
have you picked any names yet we have jayden for a boy i like jordan for a girl but dp dont

DD is Grace Lilly.
Love you're names.
We are set on Leo for a boy and i think isabella/isabelle for a girl. Alltho that will prob change.
Right i'm gonna have to love you and leave you for this evening, going to make the most of Grace being asleep before her teeth wake her up.
Catch you tomo sometime
Night night

lovely names too

Fruitful - Glad the appt went well! x

Scampynoodle - It could be! Thats how mine feel now..more like kicks, but i am 21+5....around 18 weeks they felt more like rumbles?

Lottielou - Welcome to the mad house! xx

Morning all - hope you are all ok and welcome to Lottieloo!
I first felt my kicks at around 17 weeks and now they feel strong like the little bean in doing a bit of karate inside me!

Holy Moly, it really could have been the baby kicking then? You mean I'm really pregnant? I think my brain just melted...

Sx

Morning all - how r u all?

I'm off on holiday to Devon next week yippee!!

Welcome Lottielou (I'm also a lottie - but don't tell anyone)

Scampynoodle - definitely the baby - it'll be more and more frequent and then it stops you from sleeping !

Fruitful - good news with ur appointment

Awen - good luck with the scan today - tell us ur news when u can!

gosh - where's mixedmama this morning?
she's our star/frequent poster!!

Good morning everyone!!

I am still waiting to feel LO I am 17+1 today so i am hoping anytime now

I have good news, me and DP have found somewhere for us to live. I was starting to think we would have to squeeze LO into our tiney one bed flat. We have found a lovely 2 bed house with a little garden, just round the corner from where I grew up, and will be moving in Septemeber. I'm very excited, although not sure I will actually be much help with the moving but I guess I can direct people!

Morning ladies,

i am here. Just got in at 10.30 as i am here till 7.00 this evening

Had quite a few emails this morning which is unusual and trying to read all the posts.

Nothing useful really to say this morning just yet, so will just kick back and see what you ladies come up with and of course express my extremely sought after opinion.

congrats Cazzy
Welcome Lottielou a few coincidences there similair to my posting name and my dd called Lily Grace !
Hope alls well today Awen.
Think i might just stay in pyjamas today as they so comfy and i have a mountain of post holiday ironing to do
Anyone find their bra's really uncomfortable. I got measured two weeks ago so they must be right size but i an's wait to get them off. I was the same with the other pg's. They seem to irritate round the bottom.
Just watched a home birth on tv with dc's and ds seemed surprised that that's where our baby is going to emerge from. He said it looked like a big poo when the head came out. He said does that hurt it's very big!
Hope everyone else happy today despite the shocking weather.

So sweet of your DS Lilyloo

Lilyloo - Hope you said - 'no it doesn't hurt darling - it's like a leaf gently falling off a tree'...

hehehe

Quite jealous of the pyjama predicament but not the ironing.

Come on mixedmama - no message till 11am - whats going on!
