There’s loads of us around, the Mumsnet thread seems to have been abandoned in favour of a facebook group these days

Bellasblankexpression · 17/11/2019 22:14

I didn’t join the thread as I was too nervous having had previous losses so it’s nice to find a little gang here.
I’m also over it - I have the worst sciatica and am suffering with SPD. I also seem to have piled all of my weight onto my bump, bum and chin Grin

Cjo99 · 17/11/2019 23:05

@Sweetooth92 I just found out about mumsnet a few days ago and I’m loving it!Smile

31st Jan here. I feel like I've been pregnant forever.

Cjo99 · 17/11/2019 23:26

@beingajen same here. Found out really early on and we have had everything ready for a few weeks now so it’s just a waiting game now😂Going to be a long 8 weeks...

Bellasblankexpression · 17/11/2019 23:43

@cjo99 you sound super organised - we are so not! I’m 32 weeks and not really got anything yet 😱

Have you got all clothes etc?

SleepingStandingUp · 17/11/2019 23:50

Me but they'll be here in Dec as planed C Sec. I'm so heavy 😩

beingajen · 18/11/2019 06:21

@Cjo99 I knew really early too (within my body if not by lines in a window). It was all a bit of a surprise as the doctors had said my chance of getting pregnant naturally was less than 5%. So stopped being careful or planning. 2 weeks later.....
You are so organised. Just started a nursery and have ended out taking it and the bathroom next door to the studs. This baby needs to stay put for a bit.

saltandvinegar1 · 18/11/2019 06:46

Due 18th January!

Brianna83 · 18/11/2019 08:23

@beingajen we're due date buddies! I'm 31st Jan too.

As many have said - get it out of me now. I'm done with this pregnancy lark.

I wasn't due to commence mat leave until 16th December (moving to another country - apparently I'm insane and like a challenge) but was signed off last week so now I'm lounging at home wondering what to do with myself.

How prepared is everyone? What have you bought or not bought?

saltandvinegar1 · 18/11/2019 09:28

I haven't done anything! Due to go shopping next week for new born 0-3 bits.
Need to think about packing my bag but 2 things I've bought.
Cuddle dry towel
And a nod pod
It's a blanket with arms and legs safe to use in car seat.
Don't need to get main things as it's my second baby. DD is 3 xx

Bellasblankexpression · 18/11/2019 09:39

We have got a pushchair. And a couple of packs of sleepsuits. But that’s it 🤷🏼‍♀️

I really need to get a move on but we are moving house in two weeks 🙈 so keep thinking I will wait until after then! Hopefully baby doesn’t decide to come early!

Brianna83 · 18/11/2019 10:02

I'm the same and feel better having read your posts! I have the pram, car seat and crib but nothing else. I'm reliably informed that what I have plus some sleep-suits and a good shop in boots should see me through the first few weeks and then we can see what we need/want but I feel very unprepared!

Bellasblankexpression · 18/11/2019 12:00

@Brianna83 snap I’ve been told that too but also feel completely unprepared! 🙈

Brianna83 · 18/11/2019 12:06

@Bellasblankexpression I'm in the process of moving too and buying more stuff just doesn't sit right with packing boxes does it! It'll be fine. I'm sure....

Boymummy3 · 18/11/2019 13:03

Only 10 weeks to go to get everything sorted for us.. have 2 ds so with Christmas and then baby due 4 weeks later im Determined to get everything asap.

Starting hospital bag in next few weeks too.. although this is no3 for me im still questioning what i need for it.

Ordering the Pram tomorrow so least i can chill once thats done. Got a fair bit of clothes already, moses basket, steriliser and bottles, some nappies, relaxy chair, playmat...

End of January cannot come quick enough though, been measuring 4 weeks over since 24 weeks and baby is over the top line 🙈 i know growth scans/measurments can be out but im so heavy its ridiculous.

elvis4nuts · 18/11/2019 13:45

11th Jan for me, although I have a feeling she will come sooner.

Not sure why and no doubt I will be totally wrong and she will be late!
