HELLO!

According to this

The maternity stuff is in the next sale - though I suspect only at larger stores.

The materntiy wear is on pages 196 to 207 for those of you who want to browse the list.

I know the Guildford store normally stocks quite a large range of maternity wear. They had some in the last sale too!!!!

Who knows, lost the will to shop (which is very poor at the best of times). Is their sale online too?

DS woke up in the night with high temperature and head/neck ache (screeeeam) which means it is now a whole week of illness in this house.

Morning,

I have no idea what is going on with me but last night me & dp spoke enough for me to tell him that I didn't want to be with him anymore (which is soooo untrue!!!) We are still not talking!
We are meant to be going away this weekend and I am so close to cancelling it.

He has done nothing wrong - its all me but I just can't stop all this, its like severe PMT!!! I just feel like pushing everyone away.....although I do feel better and stronger than yesterday and found the cutest suit for a boy in Next that I am so going to buy (a girl could wear it too but it would look better on a boy).

I hate what I'm doing to DP but I just can't stop it - I'm really hurting him with what I say and I don't even mean it.

And I thought I was really going to enjoy being pg and having all the attention - guess not!

kangel,
When you get home you should tell your DP what your feeling, also explain you cant help it your hormones are going wild. I was the same way with my DP for a full week i was like a bitch. I would pick on little things, row over silly things. It all came to a head when i stood in the hall and cried and half way through crying and DP looking at me thinking she has lost it i bust into tears of laughter!!!
I really hope you dont cancel you trip this weekend, and go and relax with your DP.

god yes Kangel, Tell him
it's scary when your emotions do this
I actually packed and left dp when I was pregnant with ds cos I got really annoyed he's gone out and was late! I stormed it, took all my stuff and went away
Tell him it's all getting on top of you, you love him but your emotions are going wild, show him how to support you
at boy suit! believe me if it is a girl, she can still wear it, you should have seen my ds in the pink stuff!

kangel if its any help, I am finding some people i really cant be near....finding them and everything they say quite hurtful and mean, even tho, when dh reasons with me later, i can see i'm the one being OTT sensitive......its a pg thing. it IS exactly like PMT from hell, as in they are both massive raging hormones levels up and down.
try hard to explain to dh what you explained to us. it helps to keep dh close, and tell him even the mad little things going on in your head, or you may find you push him so far away its really hard to get close again.
speak to your midwife too, postnatal depression gets so much coverage where as actually PREnatal depression hits more people - this could be the start of something, or it could just be a hormonal moment, worth getting midwife/drs advice on which they think it.
please to dh tho, dont cancel that weekend, try and spend some time together.

stormed out, even
at your skirt dq! sounds yum
I haven't felt summery or attractive since May ..

afternoon all...why are u all sooooooooo chatty when ive been out so have to catch up..lol

Kangel when pg with ds i told dh to leave me and go and sleep with someone else..also made his liafe a living hell through first 2 trimesters. This time i simply dont have the energy..lol

Hope u are all ok

Thanks for all your support, reading your messages makes me feel at least a bit normal - I'm not the only one loosing my mind then!

I e.mailed dp this morning to tell him that I love him and that I know i'm being crap, but I couldn't bring myself to say sorry just yet. He sent a message back saying he loves me too and he seems to be talking to me now.

Went out to lunch with a colleague and managed to have a laugh over me dropping all the apples and then falling down an imaginary hole - yesterday I would have cried over it but had a good laugh and am feeling a bit better for it!!

Regarding clothes - I've never felt so ugly and never had such a big complex over my figure. Clothes are getting tight and I feel like a frump.

kangel
Cloths wise i am feeling the same. I am wearing joging bottoms to work all week cause i cant get in to the shops and all my others are way to small.. DP offered me some of his pants!!!! I hated feeling crap with DP but it was like he was getting on my nerves.. Now were friends again! (for a while anyway) You will feel slightly normal again soon

How many days are you away for?

Minnie - only for the weekend, we are going to a christening so we decided to stay in a hotel and make the most of. Will be back Sunday and back to work Monday. No rest for the wicked!

I feel really guilty for being so nasty to dp which then makes me upset too - its a vicious circle!

afternoon ladies
dh has just been maternity clothes shopping for me -as hes in another town today- and i had to listen to him describe things over the phone....PMSL! anyhow, hes happy as is now convinced he is a 'new man', and i am happy because it was a very sweet thought (tho, nervous at what the heck he will bring home!!)
ninah my skirt is lovely, dark brown background, which you cant see much of,big pale blue and white poppy kinda flowers all over, sort of a slight flared style. I'm not a huge skirt/dress person but do like this one. next do sometimes get it right!

dh bought me some old lady stuff (elasticated) from Dotty P's three years ago which I am still wearing no wonder I feel like a frump!
Have a Next voucher for b'day, now I feel encouraged to spend it!

DQ, very , your DP goes clothes shopping for you!!!

Hope you have a good weekend Kangel. I too have been really horrible to my DP. Really pushed him to the limit I think. Seem to have turned a corner now but I wasn't sure if we would make it at one point. It really is tough going isn't it.

Having a catch up day today. After being away last weekend the house is a TIP and I have washing coming out of my ears. Seem to have some energy today so going to make the most of it. Have a good Saturday all.

Hello everyone,

My very 1st weekend post. We finally got round to installing the internet at our house last week - only 20 months after moving in but never mind.

Been to the next sale today and spent £70 - still, got some really good bits - suitable for winter, and it normally would have cost over £200 so quite a bargain I think.

I should have enough bits to see me through to the end now - just need to resist the temptation to shop

Hope your all well,

Kangel, I hope your having a much needed bread with your dh and making the very most of it. I can't remember the last time dh and I went away alone together - probably before dd was born!!!!!

s/h welcome to never getting anything done because you have broadband at home club! also got few bits in next sale...not alot tho.sigh. been so busy buying for portugal hols that think may be freezing in two months time......ah well, shopping is good for your soul right?
george, hope you caught up okay -wanna come do my washing???!!! never ever ending with my herd..
dh hardly ever goes shopping, never mind for me, but he felt he should check stores out in another town as I dragged him round our town and grumbled how dire my choices were. and he has spent a fortune on HIS holiday gear already.....dh guilt, wonderful thing!!!
so can we all start mentioning how many wks we are now cause i keep forgetting..I'm one of the last right? so my 18wks is quite behind some of you. ah well it feels quite far for me. scan not next week but week after..oh scary. no movement felt yet () so terrified all will NOt be well. crazy isnt it, prob just have placenta across the front again like last time. I so hope its something like anyhow.
so I'm just 18wks, what are you guys again??

HIya, just been on next sire and couldnt find anything!! Oh well!!
Im now 17+4 i think! can you believe im having to think about that! I know my 20 weeks is on 10th Aug and my scan isnt till 24th August!!
Had all family over today for ds and dsd who have their birthdays this week so am preatty knackered!
Went docs on friday and had to give urine sample for testing, hopefully the infection has gone but if it hasnt will be on more anti biotics by tuesday!!
Am now off to count freds heartbeat! Whats the general belief? Fast=girl slow=boy?? whats fast etc???
Spent a small fortune in ADAMS sale on friday all on fred and feel great for doing it!
Have short listed some names as well BOY= Maxwell or Ross and GIRL= Alex or Leigh but nothing decided.

ounted Freds heartbeat last night and its 159 beats per minute! I reckon thats quite slow so maybe this is my boy!!!! When dh and i counted fred was under my belly button (had to have doppler almost in it!! An hour later i felt BIG moves on one side so checked again and fred was really far on my left hand side! Hes definately a fidget bum!!!
Got a whole day planned today with ds and dsd, they decided they wanted to spend their birthday money (which was heading for the bank) and a new tv/DVD player for their bedroom so we have agreed! (what bad parents we are) Are also taking them bowling!

Forgot to add that Since lat tuesday i have PUT ON 1LB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and havent been sick since thursday!!

Hi I am now (sunday) 18+5. My scan is on 8th August - bring it on! Hope we can find out the sex. Suggestions so far for names from our kids are: Sophie, Katie, Keegan(yeah right), boy boy. Better than the suggestions DD gave us when I was pg with no.2 which were curtain or bus driver.

Am feeling almost 100% better now which is good and uterus is just under belly button. Am also feeling kicks from outside tummy now (IYKWIM) and baby moving off and on so its all getting exciting!

Off to Ikea today! Yippee.
