@ShiningStarz I will ask about babies weight if I remember! When they measured my bump at my 24 week appointment, I was on the lower centile so will be interesting to see. I was always told H was a big baby - he was 7 lb 14 born (although that was 10 days early so I guess he’d have been bigger if he was born at 40 weeks). My mother in law kindly keeps telling me that this baby is going to be big 🙄
Interestingly, I was looking at that nightwear on BooHoo - I always wear PJs at home, although I sleep in my knickers, but I want some button down nighties for post section. I have a gorgeous one from Australia from when I had H, but also need some dark colours!
@chipsAreLife SW is the intention, but the reality may be something else lol. I also lost weight quickly after having H, although I think that was a combination of breast feeding and anxiety. Hopefully I’ll sort myself out this time!
@mooseWL Movement wasn’t mentioned to me until my 24 week appointment, when she asked if there was a pattern! But I’ve had a couple of times where baby has been quiet, and having a drink and a lie down has worked!
@emma278 You’ll have to get yourself a shewee for when you’re out and about, so you can nip behind a bush 😂 I don’t get huge urgency, but I definitely feel like sometimes baby is lying so low down that I can’t fully empty my bladder. This can only get worse too!
@sara7455 Fingers crossed you were discharged! how are you feeling?
I’m feeling so nervous about my scan today. I’ve dreamed all night that I didn’t find out the gender, and then I gave birth to a 10lb breech baby in an ambulance and it was a boy! And then for some reason I went straight to my Grandma’s house (who lives 2.5 hours away), and the baby wouldn’t breastfeed and I didn’t have any bottles 😂
We have a definite girls name - it’s been a name ever since we got together. The only issue at the moment is I want a full name - as it’s in my family and is special to me, although we will always shorten it (like the Frederick/Freddie situation), but my husband just wants the short name. Middle name is going to be Rhiannon - which is both my sisters name and my husbands sisters name. @ordis - I love Carys And Cariad ❤️ beautiful choices if you did go with a Welsh name, based on their meaning. @shiningstarz Do you think you’ll have an Irish name?
Boys we’re finding a bit more difficult. My little boy was always Harry, we didn’t have any other names - and we’re a bit stuck as we can’t have two Harry’s 😂 We’ve got a couple of contenders but I don’t LOVE them. Middle name will definitely be Rhys though - which is my husbands name, as well as my brothers.
(I understand that in divulging this, it looks as though my husband is my brother and our sisters are the same people... I assure you they’re not 😂)
