Me also Robin, where abouts?

PrettyVacant1 · 18/02/2011 18:42

Sorry to post and run....
Bean bouncing away, heard heartbeat!
DP was going to ask to record it but the sonographer was very efficient, measured,typed and was done!
Good I suppose, no messing,no different from any normal scan.
Woopie!
It's soooooooo big! (not really)
Well bigger than 6weeks!
I got into work and layed my 4 scans out; 6,8,10 and 12.
I the girls couldn't get over how quickly its grown in 6 weeks.

Skiving so I'll have to dash, catch up later on the way home xx

Sunny (?) Warrington. What about you?

mrsrobinredbreast · 18/02/2011 18:44

Fab news Pretty. How lovely to be able to compare the pictures from the last 6 weeks.

digitalgirl · 18/02/2011 18:56

pv wonderful! Really wonderful!!!

clareanna · 18/02/2011 19:02

Hurrah !!! Wonderful news pv you are offically pg now- so happy for you Grin

digitalgirl · 18/02/2011 19:04

And of course hooray to emoo and lms!!!

Fab day all round. Smile

Had a v busy day off, hosted lunch for 5 ladies I was at school with - all who have babies from 2 weeks to 9 months. DS behaved marvellously and also skipped his nap which means early bedtime tonight - yippee!

Was faintly concerned at how well I was coping - baked two cakes, vacuumed and tidied the house, prepped lunch and made endless cups of tea. But now I've sat down am feeling pg again. So should be pleased that I'm still able to function during the day.

nickstermum · 18/02/2011 19:29

Whoopp to emoo sleepy and of course PV ah just brilliant :)

Have been for a listen..got my friday fix Grin all fine. Think have def been feeling movement, but rather than flutters feels like bean is digging his nails or toenails into me.. MW thought this may be cos placenta is in the wrong place... feels like a sharp knocking really :)

So so tired, been angry today also... where is it coming from?

robin we are Congleton, so not as far oop north as you. Know warrington well though :)

God dig are you nesting already?

bee good to see you on here again babes, everything ok thus far? FX for scan :)

pink you are a nutjob... you will be this far along soon.. and not quite so poor from all your scan purchases x although i can see you investing in a doppler and scan machine yourself soon..... :)

sleepy its salad all the way for me... cant touch veg really so its that or nothing :)

mamapower · 18/02/2011 19:44

Brilliant news Preeeeety Grin

Might not be around much over the weekend, mum and dad are visiting, ahhh that means I shall be spoilt Grin

Have a lovely weekend all

hotnspicyonions · 18/02/2011 21:21

Robin how's the Appletize? Have you heard of Eisberg alcohol free wine? They do it in all 3 colours, wondered if it was any good, might be worth a try! :)

wombat I had a stale raspberry jam doughnut today, warmed in the microwave so freshened up quite a bit. No squirty cream though to put in hole & make jam & cream doughnut :(

:o :o :o to all the scanners today. Lovely news that all the little beans are growing just nicely!

Keep forgetting Im PG. Have only told DP, Mum & Nan. Telling IL's at weekend as they are visiting. Am in 2 minds whether to be honest with everyone else when/if they ask or to go down the denial route. No sypmtoms as of yet (always tired & hungry!) but then I didn't get any was too drunk to remember last time. Loving the limbo :( would love glass of Wine right now!

AandRMum · 18/02/2011 21:38

(long day at work. DH also still at work, not expected home for a couple of hours. what an exciting life we are leading at the moment...)

PinkFondantFancy · 18/02/2011 23:36

dacha love the new name Grin

preeerety fab news-v cool you've got pics from all the scans too.

wombie I've got a vision of you buried under a pile of donuts and you having to eat your way out Grin

mamap have a fab weekend

digi sounds like a marathon day! Glad you're doing well.

Am feeling a bit wobbly-am at mums and she's understandably excited but I don't want to talk about it and so feel like a bit of a cow Sad when I'm rational about it I've got every chance it's going to be ok this time but every milestone coming feels a v v long way away and I daren't let myself get carried away again. Fingers crossed next few weeks go smoothly and come around quickly and hopefully I can start actually enjoying it!

PinkFondantFancy · 18/02/2011 23:39

Oh I had a krispy Kreme at lunch-was GRIM!! tasted all chemically and left a taste of old chip fat in my mouth afterwards!!! I'm assuming this is a malfunction with my tastebuds rather than them losing the plot????

Ham egg and chips for dinner-AMAZING!!!!!!

PinkFondantFancy · 18/02/2011 23:43

nix haha don't encourage me-having your own scanner would be AAAMMMMAAAAAZZZZZING!!!

PrettyVacant1 · 19/02/2011 08:15

Morning, thanks for all the Woooo's. Grin
I'm a bit worried that I'm still not getting excited.
This self preservation is pretty deep set. Hmm
holds hands with Pink

This may sound Stoopid but the best way I've dealt with this over the past few months is ignore the fact I'm diffed.
I didn't stress daily, took control and told myself nothing can happen that I haven't already dealt with before.
I got through that, so I can do it again.
I took one day at a time and was surprised how quickly they turned into weeks.
Don't get me wrong, I had wobbles, biiiiiggggg ones.
It's allowed.
Control what you can and trust what you can't.

That's nuff rantings from me.... Blush

Uurrrhhggggg, the mere thought of crispy Kreme donoughts make me want to hurl,never mind rank ones.
I'd rather eat a scratchy pig nip.
Just thought I'd share that. Grin

Must shake a leg for work soon, have a super Sat all xx

nickstermum · 19/02/2011 08:49

Pretty that's exactly how I have been in rl, pretending it's not happening! Best way to be. I am not excited, just a bit anxious, you will get excited when you feel movements etc xxx

Play Doh for brek today :)

IreneHeron · 19/02/2011 09:38

Morning everyone!

AR - sorry you're feeling wobbly. Don't worry about it until it happens and hopefully it won't. PV talks lots of sense, keep calm and carry on and with luck weeks will go by.

YourFriendBrian · 19/02/2011 09:43

Morning Poppets,

Glad you like the new F/O room Smile and hasn't it been busy here, 2 new arrivals, 3 excellent scans and happy beans, wonderful, wonderful.

Now dears, knicker spotting is inevitable but do try and relax a little, stress will not help you or your little bean (or beans in the case of Miss Dachs (nice name change) and Miss TTT).

I am wondering if pink stumbled on a mouldy ole Krispy Creme as quite frankly my dear, they are the nicest things since sliced bread...talking of which I have just put some lovely granary in the toaster ''come help yourselves''

My sweet little pretty you have had a very rough journey here, you will get excited honey, you will Smile

Now one and all, have a lovely weekend including jolls yes I did see you there poppet Smile

AandRMum · 19/02/2011 10:00

Oh Brian what did we do before your arrival Grin Grin?

PrettyVacant1 · 19/02/2011 10:16

I think Brian has been at the Krispy Cremes.....
sweet isn't he. Grin

Hey Jolls x

nickstermum · 19/02/2011 10:34

Ar hugs, but don't forget your immune system shuts down when you are diffed and there are lots of nasty bugs about ATM, ESP if your girls are mixing! I came down with flu at 6 weeks. Just remember it's safer to take paracetamol than have a temp xx

Brian hello my lovely xx yum to granary toast thanks! So nice to have you here dr Brian constantly reassuring!

Need to know what feral heartbeat should be please.... So I can stop fretting it's too slow or too fast!
