Good morning. Lulu you sound so happy, ds is a beautiful baby and sounds very content. I used to feel so proud taking dd out as a newborn even just to the supermarketSmile

Fx for you this time cupcake. I have a Ford focus too and love it. Very reliable.

Hopefully ds will start going that extra hour for you now ducky and I know what you mean about it making a difference Grin

Siarie your nursery theme sounds lovely and I really like the mobile.

More babies soon Steph and bears very exciting, they will be here before we know it.

I am on cd 9 just had to work it out. I got positive opk on cd 9 last cycle but haven't been using them this month so really not sure.

Hope everyone has had a nice weekend, back to school tomorrow for dd think she is getting bored now so will be a good thing.

Let me know if it worked Smile

LuluJakey1 · 04/01/2015 14:46

It worked. He is lovely Ducky, very sweet. There is a hint of a smile there and he is very alert.

Does he look like you or DH? I love the way babies hold their hands and fingers.

Ducky23 · 04/01/2015 14:51

Everyone thinks he looks like h, I can't see it really! The midwife said he is smiling now too Grin

LuluJakey1 · 04/01/2015 15:09

Your son is lovely Ducky!!! Adorable!!
I'm glad you like your new car Cupcake :) We bought a Ford also, but a B-Max, and we like it :)
We spent a very good time in Italy, and I really like their food - I've made some excessif Grin - and it was so hard not to taste their wine Blush!
OMG I can't believe I'm the next (if you're not induced Bears!) Confused! We still have to buy some furnitures, nappies, and I should start to learn the right way to breath and prepare my maternity bag, and so on...! I feel like I'll never be ready! My DH, on the contrary, is really reassuring and not stressed at all! Hmm We finally find a name for our little boy during our holiday! It will be an italian name: Luciano - shortened Lucio. It comes from "Lux" in latin, which means "light". His second name will be Raffaele, DH's dad name.

LuluJakey1 · 04/01/2015 20:59

Well, DH is back at work tomorrow. It is an teacher training day so it is 8-1.45 with a 10 min. break for coffee and then he can be home by 2 for lunch and a walk with us. I am excited about having DS to myself but scared about DH not being here-I don't know why. I still have the weeps, particularly when I wake up and at tea time. Not as bad as it was but it is still there.

He is cuddling DS like he has to make up for the ones he'll miss tomorrow. He was explaining to him earlier on about work and how he has to go to earn money to keep him in bottles of milky. Honestly! But I was crying at the same time so I'm just as daft. Can't say DS looked much interested in either of us. Smile

LuluJakey1 · 04/01/2015 21:02

Love the name Steph. Luciano Raffaele. It is lovely. Smile

Ducky23 · 04/01/2015 21:16

I love the name steph!! I love Italy and Italian food! Grin

Lulu youl do great! I felt relieved when h went back to work Grin at least he will be back wih you for lunch.Smile Will he still help with night feeds when at work?

Siarie · 04/01/2015 22:26

A lovely name indeed, also Ducky what a cutie! Makes it all worth it I'm sure.

My bump is feeling really tight this evening, not BH (I've had them) but like the skin has reached it's maximum right now and needs time to loosen up.

I assume that's normal? I've still got a way to go as I'm 24 weeks tomorrow so I wasn't expecting to feel right skin so soon.

Siarie · 04/01/2015 22:27

Tight* skin so soon even!

iamdivergent · 04/01/2015 23:04

I'd start on the bio oil now, youve still got a lot of stretching to do! Grin

LuluJakey1 · 04/01/2015 23:16

Ducky- He says he is doing night feeds. He likes it and he is very keen to do his bit. I would say he has done more of them than me. I think we'll see how tired he is after work but he is definite he is doing them.

What did you call DS in the end?

Siarie, I couldn't use bio oil, the smell is disgusting and it made me want to vomit. I used an oil we bought in France in a big bottle, it was lovely. Don't know if it made that much difference though. I have never been what you would call petite and didn't actually put much weight on. Think I was already stretched Blush But I smelt nice.

I am only 6lbs more than I was when I found out I was pregnant. I look about 20lbs more but it is actually just 6. I have wee'd for England the last few days.

Cupcake92 · 05/01/2015 07:55

Loveeeeelyyyy name steph! :) and glad u enjoyed Italy!

Lulu it's good DH still wants to do the night feeds :) I bet that's a nice feeling! My DH never did one night feed at all! DS is now 1 and a half and he still won't get up to him in the night if he wakes up!

Siarie my belly felt like that quite soon as I was quite small and tiny. So the stretching sometime felt rele uncomfortable.

Oh gosh Lulu u lucky thing! As i said DS is 1 and a half and I have put on 2 and a half stone since being pregnant :( nearly back to what I was a few years ago. I lost 3stone when I was 18 and I got rele skinny!! Was training to be in the police force. But now after childbirth im putting it all back on.

Ooo as for cream..... None of them work :) ask ur midwife and she'll tell u it's a load of poop. U will get stretch marks no matter what and unfortunately u can't stop that. I got loads at 35 weeks! None before that!

OP posts:
Ducky23 · 05/01/2015 08:01

That's good of him lulu!

I can second the fact that none of the stretch mark creams work! I used two different things loads and still got stretch marks!

So tierd, the other night was a one off as ds has been up at least every hour last night Hmm just hoping there's not something wrong as he wasn't eating as much as usual. Am so tierd. Twice he only went for 45 mins Hmm

I'm not weighing myself, I did in the first trimester as I was worried I was losing too much weight. I promised my DH if I dipped too low I would go to my GP lol! But not anymore, not looking and don't want to know.

When I give birth I'll deal with my weight loss then. I'm mostly gaining on my stomach in a neat fashion. With a little on my hips and a tiny amount on the top of my thighs.

I honestly would get obsessed and sad if I saw what I weigh.
