Oh and just reading back, Beedles neither boys nor girls care what patterns they poo or puke on so you might as well buy whatever sleepsuits you like lol.

Oh and Imps, Barry- Baxter will look small in the sleeping bag to begin with, they are very generous with the amount of material, but the press studs keep the top half in place snugly 😊

Imps9 · 29/06/2016 09:21

How is your back, Keep?

I've not tested yet. FMU was very pale. Imps I think you were right she you said you get better results later on in the day. I used to just pee on a stick but since I started peeing in a pot, I've noticed that most of the time my FMU is actually very pale, and that if I hold it in during the day it is much more concentrated. Not sure what that says about me/my kidneys etc! Or maybe I just drink too much at night? So am going to hold it as long as I can and then test. I had a wee at 7am so almost 4 hours held so far. I'm sure I'm pregnant, but it's the waiting to see if the lines darken properly or not that is the unknown, and I'm wishing the next few days away. I hate not being able to feel remotely excited anymore if I see a BFP.

keepitgoing · 29/06/2016 11:14

It's a lot better thanks imps I've even done my exercise DVDs again the last two days, makes me realise how bump has grown in 2 weeks!

Yes trix has nuchal today. Brook brook

loopy 4 hours should be enough. Do it!

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 29/06/2016 13:33

Today's test inconclusive. I can see something but it's very pale and barely there. Will test again either tomorrow or Friday, if it's not a proper good line by then then I'll know it's a no go this month, as I should be 13 dpo on Friday.

BeedlesPineNeedles · 29/06/2016 13:42

11dpo is still very early loopy I'm hoping it gets stronger by Friday

Good luck trix

My mum has collected my John Lewis order, she says the sleepsuits are lovely and soft :o

Imps9 · 29/06/2016 13:52

PHOTO! PHOTO! PHOTO! PHOTO!

I just bought some more bits and bobs for Barry-Baxter. I will do an audit tonight of different sizes but I am pretty sure we have more than enough clothes now.

loopy can you post a pic?
Scan went well, very wriggly baby! Nuchal measurement was 1.5 mm so should be all good.
Ooo lovely sleep suits beedle I love baby shopping! I'm slightly disappointed that I won't need to buy much!

Imps9 · 29/06/2016 19:56

Ohhh fab news Trix!!

You can always send your hand-me-downs to me and then you'll have to start from scratch...

keepitgoing · 29/06/2016 21:45

YES trix!!! Congratulations Grin I know what you mean about buying stuff...

Pastamancer · 30/06/2016 09:08

Loopy AF turned up here on Monday, this is the second visit this month so you are clearly pg as you have confused her and made her visit me early. Much as a 25 day cycle isn't fun, I'd rather she was here and avoiding you for a super sticky one.

Trix Fab scan news

I've attached a pic of my crochet. I'm learning through YouTube so not as easy as having someone with me to show me what to do or pick up if I'm going wrong

So today's middle of the day FRER shows a definite pink line, that just shows on a photo, compared to yesterday's one that wouldn't have had any chance of showing up, although I still remain useless at ever getting the lines to look as they do in real life. 12dpo today. it isn't real unless I make it to 5 weeks.

BeedlesPineNeedles · 30/06/2016 13:17

Congratulations trix 1.5mm sounds perfectly fine.

loopy I can see that line, so it must be there! Fingers crossed for a sticky embryo.

Well done pasta that looks really good from just following youtube. I hope you don't have to take AF from all of us!

Pastamancer · 30/06/2016 13:22

I think I'm the only one here who isn't pregnant or TTC to I might have to Beedles Shock

Imps9 · 30/06/2016 17:02

Pasta your granny square looks excellent!! Well done, esp without having private tuition!

Loops am willing that line on, like never before. Glad the midday PIAR seems to work for you too!

Had my consultant appt this afternoon. I will have another scan at 34 weeks (although it will have to be 33 or 35 weeks as I'm on holiday at 34 weeks as luck would have it) to check on Barry-Baxter's growth. Given that I didn't have any RMC testing they really have nothing to go on in terms of risk (as in, what might have caused them) but as everything is going well so far they didn't seem overly concerned.

Imps9 · 30/06/2016 18:03

Pasta not sure if you've seen [[http://attic24.typepad.com/
this blog]] before, but it features some nice patterns which are really well explained with lots of photos. The blogger does come across a bit "practically perfect in every way" from time to time, but her patterns and explanations are good and not hideously complicated.

keepitgoing · 01/07/2016 09:15

An extra scan is always welcome imps but does that mean you have to deliver in the consultant unit?

Brooking for you loopy

pasta I'm impressed! Is it hard? 2 AFs in a month?? You are a good brooker to keep hold of her

Bought a pram on eBay! £50, will pick it up tonight then will get a buggyboard as per kip's request. I think that's the only thing we need to buy. :( will take kip shopping in a few weeks to buy a cuddler for the baby

Imps9 · 01/07/2016 09:52

I don't know Keep - I didn't ask Blush I'm assuming so, which is fine. Maybe it's ignorance on my part, but I'm not bothered about where I give birth. It would be nice if I could walk around though and try different positions rather than being strapped to the bed flat on my back for the duration. Am sure the time will come to discuss birthing plans.

Totes bargainous Keep! I've done a clothes audit for Barry-Baxter - we've got plenty for the first 6 months I reckon so I'm not going to do any more clothes shopping. I washed them all the other day - twas a lovely sight to see them all on the dryer!

Tbh you should be able to do that there too unless they need to do more monitoring. It's only that they do tend to do more monitoring. Our mw unit is just across the hall, it just seems a bit more homely/friendly but to be fair I don't think I really noticed that while I was giving birth! I'd def go for a walk around if you're given the chance. Are you at the Rosie BTW?

What cute clothes you have!! BB will be the best dressed baby in town

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 01/07/2016 12:24

Ps loving the shots of clothes drying! Remind me Imps do you know if it's a boy or girl yet? Can't remember if any of you know your sexes yet?

keepitgoing · 01/07/2016 13:00

Ooh that's much stronger loopy, fingers crossed. No, we are all unidentified, me imps beedle. Geek will be finding out shortly
