Jan 2020?

[Cjo99]

Hi guys! Anyone due in January? Jan 16th here❤️ Not long to go!

@Boymummy3 - im also 26th jan. also measuring massive on scans. eeekkk! (next scan is on 3rd dec at 32+2) at last scan at 28+2 he was estimated 3lb 1oz (1410g) yikes!

waves to everyone.

I feel so unprepared 🙈 I've only got a pram so far! Got it in a black friday sale though at 25% off

@Bellasblankexpression I’m not an organised person at all but when it came to this pregnancy I was on the ball, have everything in apart from things I need to pack for hospital😂...need to do that this week.

@Brianna83 due date buddies and born same year if 83 is your year of birth. Good luck for the move. Good chance to have a sort out before baby arrives. I have some admin projects chalked for December. Want to arrange my digital photos into some themed albums; maybe create a printed album for the husband for Christmas of " Just the two of us" before life gets bigger! Plus scan documents into the cloud to get paperless. Don't know if this will happen, but it's an ambition.
No pram yet, was hoping for some offers for Black Friday/Christmas. Missed Mothercare sell-off. I'm weighing up an Evie breast pump to help with feeding, but it is pricey .

@bessie84 How insane! My last growth scan was at 28weeks and he was est 3lb 4oz🙈 got midwife on Thursday at 30+4 so will see if I have to have another one.
Are you like me secretly hoping you go earlier than 40 weeks!? This next 10 week is going to drag x

I've got the pram and car seat and the cot sorted. We have bought a few bits of clothing and a play mat.

We have put a baby wishlist together on Amazon and are waiting for Black Friday! Also given the list to family and friends who are asking for ideas for Xmas and baby! Fingers crossed she won't come early haha!

Yay due date twin!

@beingajen - yes 1983 so year born buddies too! Is this your first? Ooh I love the sound of your admin projects, I've been meaning to get all my paperwork scanned for ages - I might steal that one from you. I'm waiting for Black Friday too for the bits I still need. Here's hoping there are some good deals to be had!

Due jan 6th. I've been poorly from the start so am desperate to get the baby out. I've got a dd who is 6 years old and she is mega excited. But I just feel so alone, I feel to poorly to meet up with friends. My dh is working extra hours --hoping he isn't having an affair- I feel the total opposite of being me, my mum died 3 years ago 13th jan and I feel so sad she wont meet her grandson. I'm so excited for to be a mum again, I'm just totally drained.

@Boymummy3 - ooohh I hope you get another one

@fluffyjumper oh no, so sorry to hear that :( hopefully it flies in for you ❤️ I chuckled at the husband having an affair part aswell though lol I’m sure he is not, pregnancy makes us think the worst things! Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly and you feel better soon!!

I am due 20th Jan, baby no 3, my others are 10 and 8, so kinda of forgotten what to do. I have the car seat, and a few clothes, that’s it!

Anyone else got really bad dry mouth/throat??? It's doing my heading I'm constantly thirsty ill have a drink and within about 20 mins or so my mouth is so dry urgh! Worse on a night wake up dry mouth bad heartburn and feeling like I'm going to throw up.

How come when your younger and you hear of pregnancy it all sounds like roses, oh you get a lovely pregnancy glow..

It's all lies I tell you! I couldn't glow if I tried my god I can't even remember the last time I even brushed my hair proper I just shove it up in a bun and they certainly don't tell you about all the Crap you get with pregnancy🙈
Good job we get an amazing little human out of it at the end isn't it 💖

@Boymummy3 so true, you don’t get told about all the bad things of pregnancy (which is a lot!) but the end result is worth it ❤️ Wish it was 5 months instead of 9 though...

Hi everyone, she 12 Jan and finally getting around to sorting things out. If we manage to work tout the nursery without getting divorced, it will be a miracle! 🤣

Ps loving pregnancy insomnia! 🤣

Hi all, due date 1 January....really hoping he decides that’s too early to appear! My birthday is just before Christmas so I know all the pitfalls of a December/January birthday. We’ve got a few things sorted, just need to get the car seat and crib, and the hospital bag and I think we’re almost there.

@Boymummy3 I know what you mean about the heartburn and dry mouth- oh my word it’s been bad, I’ve found that Remegel works though for the heartburn. Didn’t get on with Omeprazole at all, and Gaviscon stopped working. I must fill my Camelbak about 8 times a day and I still feel dehydrated.

@Boymummy3 I'm getting the dry mouth, too. I also have a cobstantly blocked nose and nose bleeds and am waking up with blood crust in nose. Did I mentiin the varicose veins?
It's my first baby and I have no clue what I need, what to do, etc.
Should I buy the newborn clothes for the start or will 0-3 months be OK? Assuming baby is a 50th centile girl?

In terms of having stuff ready: I got things given by friends. So have some clothes, reusable nappies, car seat, breast pads and pump and random stuff but no crib or pram yet. Getting a bit nervous now.

Oh, and I am TERRIFIED!!!

@Felinewoman I too am terrified! I have suddenly realised I know nothing about babies. NOTHING.

Also I am absolutely crippled by sciatica. Does anyone else have it? I can barely walk at the moment 😫

Yep. Sciatica in thw first two trimesters was pretty bad, it has swapped with pelvic girdle pain now... The joy of pregnancy

I'm due on 11th Jan, but it's looking like they'll have to get him out earlier than that.

I had to start mat leave earlier than I'd hoped, although technically I'm on annual leave until 4th December, because I just couldn't handle twelve hours on my feet any more.

I'm thoroughly sick of being pregnant now.

Hello @Alderaan
Due date twin ❤️ x

@Brianna83 - yes, this is my first. I had a few operations which meant I thought conceiving would not happen (or at least without a lot of help), so focused on building a career and business. Baby decided to come along anyway. Not sure how I will juggle it, but we will see. You?

Not seeing much on the Black Friday deals I like yet. Although I have been relatively lucky with Ebay. Got a half price unused snuzpod and a really good condition Sleepyhead. Since then, I have really lost momentum.

Midwife appointment today... Being sent for yet another growth scan 🙈 although I love seeing baby... It ain't half a pain in the backside. Back and forth from growth scans to midwife. 30+4 and measuring 33 weeks so not too bad but still off the chart..if baby is still following his own line I'm predicting tomorrow's scan will est him at 4lb 4oz! But we shall see and of course they can be wrong. X

Due date 8th! We have finally started getting baby things, love Facebook for 2nd hand stuff! We don’t know the sex, so can’t get too many clothes yet.
I’m feeling really heavy, and so so tired due to getting up every hour or so for the loo!

Both older DCs were late, but I keep wondering if this one is going to be early.
