Evening Ladies
Wow, whatname you?re lucky to be able to pick up such amazing bargains. As I?ve only got 3 weeks to go, I?m trying to avoid buying any more maternity wear, but if there is a DC2, I might be contacting you and see if you can get me some bargains. I got most of mine in the Next sale at Christmas. Lots was summer wear which I layered over the winter. Thanks for posting the link to the induction thread. Interesting reading. Need to study it more carefully along with lots of other things to do pre-baby.
LRM Congrats on the scan. Can you believe that you?re already this far along? Is exciting, isn?t it? How was your second scan?
And congrats to Fjord. I?m sure you?ll be a lovely Mummy to your little girl, and will manage to avoid all the bad behaviour you?ve had to endure from the DSD. See, midget thinks the same. I have similar worries about my DC ? I really hope it does not pick up some of DH?s appallingly bad habits and behaviour?. I am thinking positively that I will be a positive influence.
Belated birthday greetings to Knotty. Hope you enjoyed your celebrations.
Exexe hope you got everything sorted. Glad to hear Bday party was such a success. I am dreading doing them. Try www3.hants.gov.uk/lepe and head for the white house, look out to sea from carpark and go right a lot. Is quieter as you keep going. Not quite as frantic as Brighton, but likely to be fairly, but then where isn?t when the weather?s like this?
Seaside how are you doing now? I have certainly had periods of feeling a touch depressed, and also looked into ante-natal depression. It never got so bad that I wanted to seek formal help, but I was verging on it. DH had been unemployed for 7 months until earlier this year and felt like house was falling down around our ears, so I guess it was understandable. Have felt vaguely like that again this week too. Hope holiday and some TLC helps, but promise you will keep telling us about it if things don?t improve. I haven?t really been tearful/emotional, just effed off from time to time.
Wow Hpbp not long to go at work. They are bastards for making you work until 18th June. I hope you won?t bust a gut for them. I had to leave the day I received my CA, and had a hard time looking sad and serious when inside I was leaping for joy that I had a way out. I doubt whether I would have achieved this pregnancy/kept it had I still worked for those **s. There is nothing wrong with wanting to go back to work BTW. There is a fine balance between keeping your career when you have kids and being a SAHM. Madness lies both ways from what I have seen!!
Midget pleased to hear you didn?t have syphilis in the end!!! 
Hope holiday was good?
Who?s stressing about PE? Worth keeping an eye out for it, but I believe it?s really very rare.
Fjord lovely that you can feel DD like that! And how wonderful to wake up to your DP and baby bonding like that.
Re movements, you can try holding something very cold to your belly, like an ice pack? that may well get them moving. I had limited movements though, but just had a quick check with Doppler from time to time. Only towards the end of my preg have I been told it is because placenta at front of stomach so cushions feelings.
York - am feeling it, just a little bit (total understatement), but it won?t last long, and I?m taking evasive action in meantime: ice packs/lots of lollies/feet in bucket of cold water?. Glad all ok at MW appt.
I have busy weekend ahead. Then next week need to try and get on with straightening out flat post-carpet fitting. So I will be a little quiet for a while. Have a great weekend everyone! xx
