10/10 Babies - The sun is showing and the pumpkins are growing

[Hermya321]

Here we go, pull up a deck chair, catch some rays and help yourselves to a mini eggs ice cream.

Link to the stats list.

Ooh I'm getting quite envious of all this new clothes talk. My wardrobe is sparse and old but my
clothes all fit so can't shop yet. I actually now think I'm not going to get bigger as quickly as I thought a few weeks ago. Must be less bloated now. I've only put on about two pounds so far (well, I have in the morning - always seems like more come evening). I could definitely do with more longer tops though. I suppose I could look for ordinary ones for the time being but I generally hate shopping and also can't do it with ds in tow. I would say he's a typical boy in shops but actually he's more like me - dp is more interested in shopping generally than I am, certainly more effective than me! Perhaps online is the way ahead.

One more thing - are people still taking folic acid?

floozietoozie i was about to say i stopped taking the folic acid at 12 weeks and then remembered it's in the vitamins I take, however as soon as i stop being sick I will stop taking them. Hope telling people at work goes ok today.

me i'm off to Pembrokeshire today with work - taking bets on how many times I have to stop the car to chuck on the way!

Floozie-it's difficult to know how to tell your boss isn't it, especially if she is tttcing. I had to tell 2 friends who are ttcing and recently mc'd- it was hard, but ultimately they were happy for me, I just had to accept it wasn't going to be straight forward.

I'm taking prednicare (contains folic) and iron, and will carry on as I got very anaemic last pg. I also wasn't ttcing when I got pg sp folic started a bit late!

They have shut the office for the week out of respect, so I have another day without ds: today will be scrubbing flat (again) and trying to get the sand out of my poor car! And hopefully play theguitar and sleep

have a good day everyone!

hi i am also due oct 10.10.10 with dc2,
as far as folic acid i was told only benifits u and bub till wk 13,

floozie u have only put on 2lb lucky u! think i have gained that just on boobs!! gone up to an f cup already!! ouch

have many people had 16 wk check, remind me is it train sound for boy and galopping(sp) for girl?? always remember with my dd her heart beat was always under 140 which if u listen to old wives tales says boy!

had very achy sore back around rib area, do u think this is just where ribs r moving etc, sensitive to touch, anyway must get on with the washing up!!

Morning all, just off to GP to hear more about the ugly rash and hope he can reassure me about its effect (or not) on LO. Then the dentist to repair broken tooth...oh what a day! At least the sun is shining, eh?!

Very envious of all the lovely shopping! I don't really need anything yet except jeans, which are becoming urgent, I must go and look (I'm such a wuss at shopping) - would you say Mamas & Papas is best?

Have a great day everyone,

Morning all, lovely day. I got my jeans from mamas and papas, they are great, but I can only wear look things with it as my bump isn't big enough yet. They had lovely summer tops and dresses in too! think I need more leggings though x

ooops long not look

MummyLovesSadie please come back and tell us how you are getting on.

Morning all!!

The sun is shining today and it's a beautiful day.

I'm starting to get a very tiny bump. I've still not put on any weight (not that I'm complaining) mostly still recovering from my nausea of the last few weeks.

Sophieandbelly I've had that as well yesterday, I thought it was just me. They do say that you got itchy in the second trimester.

Dilly, I had a good look around and was most impressed with Mamas and Papas jeans. They were on offer when I bought them so around the same price as those from H&M/New Look etc.

Hermya, is it your birthday around now? If so, Happy Birthday!

I guess I have put on weight though we don't have scales so I don't know the details. Feel a little bigger. Am now 16 weeks and a day! Had a feeling I might have felt a kick last night, but it might have just been a rumbly belly!

sophieandbelly ive had the same thing!

Has anyone else been waking up in the morning with a sore belly? Soon rectifys itself but just want to know if its just me?

nunnie great news on the scan!!!!

abfab how exciting about the kick

hoping everyone has a lovely day!xx

Abfab Yeah it's today, thanks for remembering! Isn't yours around about now as well?

I went on the scales this weekend and I'm at my lowest weight since I was at Uni. My weight is normally pretty stable so it was a bit of a shock.

aw happy birthday hermya321 I don't own any scales, the only time I find my weight out is if the nurse does it! I've stayed the same for about 6 years though, lovin' my mums good genes!

happy birthday hermya have a lovely day

katy86 sorry about this, but the sore belly in the morning may be wind!

Happy birthday Hermya! hope you are having a lovely day!

Happy birthday Hermya - hope you are having a lovely day and that the sun is shining where you are

thank you shieldbug i had not thought of that

happy birthday Hermya i thought i already posted that

I'm getting the aches and pains in my back quite badly now. Was at the butchers yesterday and had to start doing stretches... looked odd... but hey-ho tis life.

katy86 I get aches in the belly in the morning and also in the evening - I've put it down to the wind.

I've been told twice now by colleagues (who are still unawares) that I look like I'm losing weight - now I haven't really had much in the way of MS just lots of nausia but I'm still packing the food away. I laugh it off and say thanks and think to myself that they won't be saying things like that to me soon enough so I might as well enjoy it while I can.

Happy Birthday hermya

I will catch up with you all later with hopefully good scan news!

good luck lilmiss fingers crossed for you

Happy Birthday Hermya

And good luck for lilmiss

Thanks, Katy86 - though I am just not certain it was a kick. Might have been wishful thinking!

You're welcome! Happy Birthday, Hermya!
Yes - mine is Thursday! Are we all updating the stats list with our new ages?!
Perhaps we should have a birthday list so we don't miss anyone! I think someone else is around now too.

lilmiss, best of luck for your scan. Exciting times!

Hi all, all that talk of my migraines yesterday i ended up waking up at 6.30am today with one, only just got out of bed and threw up alot. All my bump has gone
Happy Birthday Hermya
Good luck with the scan lilmiss
