Due May 2009 - The 2nd thread... our pregnancy-addled brains can't think of anything wittier!!

[SpangleMaker]

Here you go

Rubysmom, dc2 might drop out but so might your uterus. NICE by the way (I'm talking from experience). It's never too late to do the Kegel exercises. DO THEM NOW! If your pelvic floors are toned, then you have better pushing power.

Got to go and finish painting Dd's bedroom, so I can start on Ds's.

Mmmm I had apple crumble twice over the weekend- with creamy custard mmmm (not a double cream fan).

Had fish and chips twice too (mmmm).

My belly is way too big for 9 weeks pg. I'm sure for my 12 week scan with DD bump was barely visible and got to 5-6 months pg with some people not even realising!

fikelly are those your omnia photos on flickr? Great shots!

Right better do some work instead of googling/reading phone reviews

I just had two huge chocolate chip cookies (my first indulgence yet) and it felt GOOD!

Meanwhile, does anyone else watch Criminal Minds? I've developed a bit of an obsession

spangle not all the photos were taken with my Omnia... but quite a lot were. I think I tagged the ones taken with the Omnia... all of my ravelry 365 ones & bakes & cakes ones were definitely.

off to make a start on the apple crumble... at least dinner is sorted as I made a big pot of chicken/lentil/veg soup yesterday and have plenty left for today

CoteDAzur yes watch criminal minds too... although not seen ones since Mandy Patinkin as Jason Gideon left the series. Waiting on most recent series coming onto Virgin1.

Hi. Can I join in please - am 10+3 so due mid May. Second pg, had a mc 15 years ago. Having a bit of a panic attack this afternoon as just read about a woman who went for her 12 week scan and was told the foetus had stopped growing at 6 weeks even though she had not bled. How would you know if this had happened to you? Does loosing a couple of pounds in the last week and not feeling as bloated or windy mean anything? Or should I just rely on the fact that nothing untoward has happened to me, I'm still constantly hungry (although trying to eat much more sensibly recently) and the boobs are still vv tender? Any advice gratefully recived.

Hi Natasha welcome

(and hello to any other new ladies I've not greeted yet!)

I'm not terribly experienced in the world of pregnancy as this is my first, but from everything I've read on here you really mustn't worry about symptoms coming and going. I think they do tend to change a bit in the last part of the first trimester - I certainly noticed I wasn't as queasy or as freezing cold as I had been at around 10 weeks. The idea of missed miscarriage is terrifying, but it really is very rare. When do you have your scan?

I think it quite natural to panic...see my earlier threads from yesterday!

Trouble is, there is always something to worry about. 12 week scan, 20 week scan, no movements, too many movements, the birth, feeding, sleeping, wean/not wean, development, illness...the list goes on and on.

As hard as it is, try not to worry.

Hiya! :D Hoping to join you ladies - I'm due on the 29th May 2009 Which makes me 8+3 weeks Gestation... had not realised that might be classed as 10 weeks on here :S have i done something wrong in caluclating.. Congratualtions ladies.. I'm so happy for us! This is my first after a miscarriage in May so I am worried.. but kind of excited as well... Trying not to think about it..

Dear all,

I know I haven't posted very much but I have been reading when I can. Unfortunately, I lost our baby at the weekend at 11+5 weeks, just when I thought I was pretty safe.

I wish you all the very best for your pregnancies, may you have smooth journeys& beautiful babies. I will be thinking (and occasionally reading) about you all but I won't post again.

Hello and welcome to all the newbies
Llareggub aww great about your scan.
Finally started telling people this weekend which has made it real. The inlaws were so excited (am v lucky as my il are fab).

im so sorry frogthistle. ill put you in my thoughts. xx

thought i was over m/s but was sick again last night and today at work.
didnt even have the energy to crouch down to be sick so stood up to do it, very pleased with my aim..
