It keeps dropping off the threads I am on, then I forget to check though the topics. W took his first steps last week which scared the crap out of me. Amazing what they will do for a biscuit Grin and cut his first tooth on Friday, a fang. It's very pointy.

B is being a right threenager and a challenge at the moment, so W gets left to his own devices quite a bit.

Still waking every 2-3 hours at night and I am exhausted. DH grumbles and moans, he does the pick ups before midnight (usually only 1) and then I do them, just feel like a zombie and probably look like one too.

It's weird isn't it mum. When I took the test with Hunter it was a crazy time, only been with now DH 6 months but I know if it was bfn i would have been disappointed too! As it turns out, best thing I've ever done in my life xx

Mumof3xx · 24/02/2014 17:29

Bfn about 8am

Slightly relieved as it would not have been ideal!

I think dd is still a way off from first steps. She still hasn't managed to pull to standing only to knees

Cannotbelieveit · 25/02/2014 20:24

Hope that's what you wanted mum! Xx

Mumof3xx · 26/02/2014 06:44

It was

But still weirdly disappointing! A lot of people around me are having babies! But I know four would be too much for me

Cannotbelieveit · 01/03/2014 08:37

Bought last few things for hospital bag! Will pack both our bags next week! 32 weeks today Grin

Mumof3xx · 01/03/2014 09:26

How exciting!

birdbrain21 · 02/03/2014 23:42

mum I had the same a few weeks ago, had all the same symptoms of being pg that I had with dd really convinced myself that the pill must have not worked bought a test and it was negative very relieved as got a lot on at the moment and I know I would probably find it very hard emotionally with another baby but at the same time made me think maybe I do want another one already...my DH thinks I'm mad keeps teasing me every time I moan about anything that it's pregnancy symptoms!

cannot wow time flies Smile my friend just had her first baby 10 weeks early (pre-eclampsia) they hadn't even decided on their buggy yet you can never be ready too early!!!

Finally after 5 months of teething dd first tooth has broken through the gum, I don't think she realises it will make it easier for her to eat now as she still puts everything to the back of her mouth to bite it....

Mumof3xx · 03/03/2014 06:08

Glad it's not just me going crackers then bird!

I still keep having symptoms! And am still to have a proper period since my depo wore off

birdbrain21 · 03/03/2014 10:04

I still have symptoms but got two bfn and had about 3 periods this month so assuming symptoms are to do with my irregular newly returned periods...

Cannotbelieveit · 06/03/2014 08:52

Hey ladies! Now I have a horrible ear and throat infection! It's one thing after another here!!

Hope everyone is well.

Hunter is all better after the D&V bug we all had and his appetite is back to normal Grin

Packed mine and baby's hospital bags now!

32+5 Smile

birdbrain21 · 17/03/2014 22:07

hmm gone quite quiet on here again Hmm...
H is now zooming around the place and trying to push herself into standing position on anything thats sturdy enough her toybox is plastic and slides accross the carpet everytime she tries she hasn't figured out yet that pulling herself up on the couch would be much easier Wink
It's her first birthday in month! Totally in shock can't believe how quickly the year has gone! I'm trying to think what to do about presents, really she doesn't need much but everyone in the family wants to spoil her. My sister wants to buy her something that she'll enjoy and use so has asked what I need her budget is £30 I'm really not sure what she should get?! I'm planning on getting her Some new clothes because we don't really have much in the next size up and I love buying little girly clothes I think I must have been doll deprived as a kid I'm having so much fun dressing her up Grin

Cannotbelieveit · 17/03/2014 23:17

I've been checking back on here bird!!

Hunter has decided he now wants to move! He rolls everywhere (not so good during nappy change!) and has attempted crawling! I'm sure he's chosen now to do it as he's knows it's not long til his little brother will be here and require my attention! Lol Shock

birdbrain21 · 20/03/2014 11:37

I've also been checking but nobody has been posting anything Wink

Cannotbelieveit · 20/03/2014 12:06

Just the 3 of us then bird x

Mumof3xx · 21/03/2014 06:55

I am here!
We have less than 3 weeks til dds first birthday and is making me a bit sad!
I feel like I won't have a baby anymore!
Anyone else like this?
With my older two I remember being excited about them growing up! But I feel I will miss her being a baby!
We are going for clothes and shoes for presents I think as there isn't much she needs
She is finally starting to bare a little weight on her legs occasionally when held up so this is a relief to me. She will pull herself up but only onto her knees for now!
Tooth number four is making an appearance!
And she is now saying hiya lots!

birdbrain21 · 21/03/2014 09:12

dd says hi a lot as well and waves, I guess its an easy word for them as not to many sounds to combine. We're just about getting a second tooth here can't imagine her having 4!
I'm quite excited for her first birthday but she is my first and we plan on having more so maybe that's why I don't think of it as she won't be a baby because she will be my baby until we decide to have another...
shoes is a good idea for a present but she doesn't really need them yet as she's not ready to walk so we might have to put it on hold. going to get her a ride on car, but I have asked people to give money rather then clothes because I enjoy choosing her clothes too much Smile

Mumof3xx · 21/03/2014 09:15

Dd isn't near walking either she can't even stand up!

These will be the prewalker kind with soft soles. Oy really for playing outside in as she attends nursery and plays outside daily

Cannotbelieveit · 21/03/2014 19:50

We have 2 teeth halfway thru on the bottom and 1 just coming thru on the top and Hunter has now decided to move more (constant rolling, trying to crawl etc).

Still can't believe my little man will be 1 on the 31st and then not long after we will have a newborn again!!!

Cannotbelieveit · 25/03/2014 08:27

Growth scan today! Let's see what they say!

35+3

birdbrain21 · 25/03/2014 10:26

Is it standard to have growth scan in your area or they think the baby is unusual size? Enjoy it's so amazing to see them on screen and then actually meet them! Can't remember do you know what your having?

Second tooth just come through today, and yesterday she pulled herself into standing postion for the first time using the sofa, then she didn't know how to sit back down so started crying! Can't believe how quickly she's growing up

Cannotbelieveit · 25/03/2014 17:38

Bird have measured over for last 3 midwife appts so you get referred for a scan.

Scan puts him at 6lb6oz currently so not as big as mw measured with fundal height

Also got a scan and consultant appt on Monday Grin

birdbrain21 · 25/03/2014 19:10

Cannot at least you get to see your baby lots Smile

Cannotbelieveit · 25/03/2014 21:49

Definitely nice to see him again but he wouldn't pose for any pics! xx

3DcAndMe · 26/03/2014 06:40
