April 2013 TTC girls, where we ALL get our babies!

[Ducky23]

We quickly ran out of room on the old thread so here's a shiny new one

She's usually ok, gets a bit whiny if I spend too much time with DS! Especially at bedtime. And she photobombs if I take too many pictures of him (although the iPad won't let me upload any !).

Glad it's all going well bears how many weeks is ds now?

It's the same here cupcake so rainy!

It's ds postnatal class today, really cba to go as I've heard bad things about them but suppose we best as ds hasn't seen another baby!

DS is 9 weeks already!

Do you have a local children's centre Ducky? We go there quite often instead of postnatal classes - it's a lot more relaxed and you can talk to other humans mums. They do different sessions for different ages and just have a load of toys and activities the babies can do while you have a cup of tea!

Although DD is insisting we walk today and it's tipping it down so I won't go until it stops! I think it might be a ploy so she can watch Mr Tumble before we go...

Aw bless Bears! Photobombing haha
My DS loves Mr Tumble! Has to watch that in the morning.

Ducky what's a postnatal class?

Tori, if it was me I'd leave it out I'll it stops raining and then wait till it dries again then bring it in and if it smells okay iron it and put it all away ive forgotten many times about washing being outside! Or ive nipped out and it magically rained the 10 mins I was out.

I had an awful sleep last night I hardly slept. No idea why. I keep having such real and weird dreams too! All about this baby, it's always a girl and I called her Lily lol which is funny as that would actually be her middle name if im having a girl
I only have 2 weeks till my gender scan to find out :)

Rain, rain!

We rent too but always get the cats written into the agreements. I'm so tired today, DD has started wanting smaller feeds closer together. Possibly she's going through a growth spurt? She's 20 days old today.

Two weeks until your gender scan cupcake! That's going so quickly. I wanted to say girl when I saw your scan picture, but it's hard to tell from those.

Had a couple of viewings today so had to try and tidy up beforehand. Then DD projectile vomited over me and the sofa right before the viewing.

DD only seems settled sleeping on me. She has a super sensitive startle reflex and will fling her arms out all the time on her back. It's meaning I have to be pinned to the sofa a lot though.

Bears that's gone quick!! It was a sure start centre, it was actually ok, ds loved it! But is now really excited and over tired!

Cupcake that was the girls name I picked if ds was a girl!

Tori how excitinggg!!! Will it stay that way now?

The thing I was worried about was the other people being funny with me but they were all really nice.

There was singing which I am not keen on but think it was a one off

There's singing at my local mums and babies group too Ducky I feel a bit silly singing songs for little kids but I expect as a parent you get used to it!
Now I'm feeding DS formula at night I've realised I can have a little tipple in the evenings But I don't know if it's ok to drink after a c section? Anyone got any idea?

Btw, excellent news about your upside down baby Tori!!

I would deffo say a growth spurt Siarie :)
And yes I like to think girl too but my bets are on a boy :)
Aw bless ur DD! They always do that when someone's coming round

Tori that's great baby is head down! Bet that was a relief to hear :)

Ducky I love the name Lily, my auntie was called Lily that's why I want it to be the middle name if baby is a girl :)
It's good that DS enjoyed himself today :) I need to get into some mommy groups or something because DS loves other children but we never see any very much.

I've been extremely bad tonight!! There's this dessert place not far from me and u call them up, order and they deliver to ur door! They do Italian gelato ice cream and cookie dough and Belgian waffles drizzled with Nutella! So I've ordered some for me and DS plus I'm sooooooooooo craving sweet things!!! This is going to solve my craving :)

Yum!!

No Duckey, DH wasn't angry. He got lots of marking done so he isn't doing it tonight.
I went and got a new iPAD today- hurrah! DS and I had lunch in town in John Lewis. He had his bottle and I had welsh rarebit and salad. It was yummy.
When we got home it was sunny so we had a walk.
I have made DH's favourite tea as an apology for this morning.

And Lill ur allowed as long as ur off all ur pain killers and injections and antibiotics if ur on any. :)

Oh Tori that's excellent! You must be so pleased.

That looks like just what I could eat right now Cupcake, with a dollop of cream and some strawberries.

We are having Apple Crumble and cream.

lil I agree with cupcake, as long as your off meds it should be fine although be careful, my first glass of wine after ds I went a bit woooooo in the head! But I hadn't drank in a long time as i was pg with dd before!

Cupcake that sounds yummy!!!

Tori I would love to go swimming but there's no where really round here unless I went to one of the fancy places that cost a bomb glad your feeling more comfortable and getting ready for baby

Ooh Cupcake that looks amazing! Also forgot to say before, very exciting about your gender scan!!

Lulu i had some chopped up banana with mine, mmmmm DS loved it too :)

Tori how exciting getting everything ready for baby! :) I can't wait to get to that stage.

Ducky that's like where I am for swimming, the nearest and most decent place is a posh place and costs £10 each!!! it's ridiculous when DS is only in the water for an hour.

Lill it tasted amazing lol! And thank u :) will have to start taking everyone's bets on what it could be

I should go swimming and take DS. I just look a sight in a swimming costume and I am so self conscious. My self confidence about my body is crap.
Tori, we are almost at the point of DS moving into his nursery. I can't bear the thought of him being by himself. It is all set up and it looks lovely. It is only about 6ft from our bedroom but I love waking up in the night and watching him sleep.

I'm keeping ds in with me as long as I can get away with!

He's almost 21 weeks now can't believe it!

Id probably be too self conscious in a swimsuit now too. Mil has a swimming pool but I wouldn't go there when she's there!

Tori we have a bednest, it's great. Easy to set up, and lovely having them so close.

I love swimming. Not been since I went with DD at 38 weeks pg, so looking forward to taking DS! Hope he is a water baby like DD!
