Buckets · 12/03/2008 19:32

Hi Cheerful Vicky what a great pic, is that very new (given impressive bump)?

LadyOfWaffle · 12/03/2008 20:17

Hello Vicky - welcome

Shazza - didn't realise you had problems before, definatly check it all out x

Hazie - that is such a cute name! DS had a button nose in his pics, like DH but this baby as far as I could see in his/her 12 week scan has my nose - poor thing!

LadyOfWaffle · 12/03/2008 20:18

OOoh, a crown Note to self - never admit on MN you have ever parked in a disabled bay under any circumstances.

LadyOfWaffle · 12/03/2008 20:19

Oooooooo, pictures, let me go and have a nose. I left all my pics on my old MN name, realised I looked a total whale in them!

LadyOfWaffle · 12/03/2008 20:21

oh wow, wonderful pic! So of all your bumps (not saying you vicky have many bumps, I mean many people on this thread have lovely bumps )

FoghornLeghorn · 12/03/2008 21:03

Hi guys, have finally got an evening on my own (DH and footie and girls fast asleep) so am off to catch up in a mo.
Just wanted to share .....
My baby is on the move - not little flutters or pops of air .... definite movements .... am so excited !

CaptainCaveman · 12/03/2008 21:04

Hello vicky and welcome to the due Aug thread! Hope you will feel very welcome and happy amongst us . Am loving your bump pic - you look great!

Have added a bump pic to my page - wouldn't want to inflict bare skin on you so have been considerate and kept my clothes on for you.

Bloody headache still here from yesterday but not as bad this evening. Planning on an early night as am knackered from last night's poor night sleep. Head was pounding and a bit anxious, then ds had a nightmare about a blob of green slime which landed on his head, so he came into our bed coz he was scared .

ALBS I have a parcel with your name on right next to my front door

poppysocks · 12/03/2008 21:06

Thanks for the info petitfilou. Will pass it on to DSis. She's in Earlsfield and is erring towards St George's as she's been there before. Worried about parking for C&W, but said Kingston is looking good as it's so easy to get to on the train. At this stage I didn't think it would be helpful to share my visions of her in labour on the train, even if it is the fastest way through the traffic!

Sorry to hear about the migraine Buckets. I can sympathise...

We decided not to attempt a holiday this year as although we managed a holiday of a lifetime when I was pg with DD, we only went through with it because it was booked (and paid for!) before I knew about being pg. This time we've gone the absolute opposite way and we're going to house-sit for my Mum! It' 500 miles away though so hopefully far enough away to feel like a break and maybe even catch sight of the sun!

CaptainCaveman · 12/03/2008 21:10

Congrats to your lil sis Poppysocks - how fab that your lo's will be close in age too. There's 18 months between my ds and my sisters dd but they adore each other.

Buckets - empathising with your headache and am thankful mine is not a migraine. Poor you. Praying you have no repeats of that (praying too that my headache goes).

Hey ALBS, will you get your dh to say an extra special prayer for the ladies on the due Aug thread - that pregnancy ailments may be pain free and minimal?!

dizzydixies · 12/03/2008 21:10

evening all!

foggy thats lovely news about the movements, am having bumps and shoves too

CC lovely bump

hi poppy we're not having a holiday either, they've all been cancelled lol saw lovely consultant today who did apologise for me missing holiday bless him, as if it was his fault!! I can't remember if you're going to 9wells or not, reming me, sorry

IlanaK · 12/03/2008 21:13

Scan tomorow morning and will find out if its a boy or a girl so last chance to guess! Very excited!

CaptainCaveman · 12/03/2008 21:13

dizzy did you have a scan today or is that next week?

We're off to Florida in May!! WIll be 26 weeks when we go. My insurance is through my bank, they insure me up to 32 weeks pg (assuming no pg complications). I'm soooo excited. Airline just want a letter from GP, dated within one week of outbound travel, that the pg has been problem free.

fogster - yay for wiggling babies!!

Shazza2002 · 12/03/2008 21:15

Evening ladies

Thanks for all your advice. I did plan on asking the doctors what they thought. If they advised against it there is no way I would go. I know I was just saying it's only a 2 hour flight but that was my way of trying to take my mind off the fact that it would be terrible to be abroad and something happen.

I am just really keeping my fingers crossed that everything goes a bit more smoothly this time. The problem with pre eclampsia is there is no reason why anybody gets it, and no way to prevent it as far as I am aware. But if anybody can proove me wrong on that I would be glad.

Hope you're all enjoying your evening. Just had a lovely bath so now off to bed

dizzydixies · 12/03/2008 21:17

CC yes was this morning thank you. went fine and have a slight reprieve, don't need one in two weeks unless more bleeding so not another one till 28wks - am apparently 20+4 but mw didn't fill me with confidence to be honest. consultant was very nice and explained a lot to me whic was good of him

very of your lovely holiday, dd1 is desperate to go to disneyland, its a shame but it's nowhere near the top of the list of affordables lol

LadyOfWaffle · 12/03/2008 21:17

FL - it's great, isn't it everytime I feel it though DH is at work, or too slow! Last time I remember first feeling it in the middle of a college class, was really nice to sit there having no one know about it and baby was fluttering away

CaptainCaveman · 12/03/2008 21:19

Yay for your nice consultant, great news that no scans needed til 28 weeks too! You are now over half way through your pg!

LadyOfWaffle · 12/03/2008 21:21

Shazza - bath and bed! Such luxury! I just tried to put DS to bed, he screamed and screamed and then jumped out of his cot... so no bed for me yet!

Dizzy - glad your appointment went well, what date is your scan? Am sure you have probably put it down on the list actually...

CaptainCaveman · 12/03/2008 21:21

Night gals, am about to start snoring so heading off to bed....zzzzzzzzzzzzz

dizzydixies · 12/03/2008 21:22

I know am beginning to accept it a bit more, with everything that has happened I've been trying not to become too attached but its hard when you see it on the screen every few weeks and feeling movements. I only have 4 more weeks until its viable and then will completely relax. He also told me that I don't have to make any decisions re labouring until much much later which is a relief.

dizzydixies · 12/03/2008 21:23

good grief LofW - take off the crown lol
will go and do the list this minute!! do you need the mw apt inbetween or just the next scan?!?!

LadyOfWaffle · 12/03/2008 21:23

Errr, apart from that fact you also said in yourpost! Wow I am so slow!

I keep thinking 4 1/2 months is 1/2 way, so 18 weeks (if I did a 4 week month) then I think err, no, 20 weeks is half way! I told DH I was half way a while ago, he will think I am stuck at half way!

LadyOfWaffle · 12/03/2008 21:25

Dizzy - we need the lot!

have just updated scan date as have to phone community mw for appt tomorrow

have also noticed that mw at hosp has made a date for scan when I'll be 29+4wks so will have to phone them back in the morning as he was very definate about it being 28 and 34 - knew I wasn't overly impressed with her

poppysocks · 12/03/2008 22:10

So glad all went well today Dizzy. Did you get to find out gender, or are you keeping it as a surprise?

I went to Ninewells last time, but decided to try things in the other direction this time so it's Forth Park. Who knows whether it'll be any better for me, but so far so good and always a shot!

Right: I'm off for an early night. Night all!
