Hiya all. All is well, phew !!!! Too late for nuchael fold though so have had triple blood screen done and get results on Tue. Also got two more scans cos of previous problems.

My placenta was low but they think that is due to having a wee before scan, tut tut had to go i was getting stomach pains.

mrsmaddyd- that's excellent news. Bet you're ready for a sleep now having been up so early!

Congrats Maddy

Congrats Maddy

Great news MaddyD!
Wills, sounds like a great plan for the future. I'd like to live by the sea one day but DH has forest fantasies! I think it's cos he was born in Iceland where there are very few trees.
I am feeling pretty ghastly but at least time is passing fairly quickly as I have been busy today. Am off to do a little bit of supermarket shopping and then treat myself to my favourite lunch (noodle soup). Then it's home to tidy the flat a bit, it's a complete tip.
Only 25hrs 15min to my scan...

Good Luck with yours Arabcia.

Petunia ill probably crash on the sofa about 3ish with c beebies babysittibg the toddlers

Glad to know I am not the only one doing that Maddyd.

congratulations mrsmaddyd its a baby a virgo baby too! he/she will be tidy:)

wills so your leaving london for ramsgate! your crazy for moving whilst pg, ihope it all goes smoothly

diddle if your tired all the time make sure your iron count hasn't lowered, baby takes loads from you at this point in pg

arabica- have been thinking of you hun. 1 more sleep to scan.

baby has been very quite recently and some days i do worry, i told prof this the other day but she seemed unbothered so i have been trying to wake him up with music, i have headphones tucked in my knickers with radio 3 classical stuff blaring into him, surely he will wake up soon!

Had my scan. Went ok apart from baby's tummy being too big for the dates. Sonographer said dr will explain possible reasons. Saw a different dr, not my nice usual one, looked at my notes, said nothing at all, sent me off to come back in two weeks. So not actually sure whats wrong....
Bit concerned but not going to panic yet....

Hope you are all well, not read thread yet, will do that with a cuppa later!

snowdropsinspring - how much bigger was baby's tummy, ours was bigger than my due date by about 5 days, as was the head.
They weren;t concerned though.

Slink - thank you will keep an eye on my iron intake.

mamas and papas have just arrived with a replacement dresser for us, as the last one was dented. They have also handed me about £50 worht of free toys, as an apology. how nice, got me very excited!!!!

mrsmaddyd - fab news on your scan, excellent, a baby what a relief, i'm sure i'm having an elephant.

snowdrop- my last baby had a bigger for dates belly and the sonograpgher said baby was just fat. there was never any concern about it, so hopefully alls well with your lo
diddlingdoodle- fab about your free toys for baby, have you set everything up yet?

Snowdrops, sorry to hear about the scan, of course you are going to worry--and 2 weeks is a very, very long time to wait. Having googled all my scan results the minute I got home and then scared myself stupid, I'm not sure I recommend doing the same.

I was reading through my diary and around 25 weeks I was told the baby was about a week ahead of the due date in size - they didn't change the due date and he arrived 3 days late 7.7lbs average. I don't think people in the medical profession think and they ae matter of fact about things that we get anxious about.

I've just been to the hairdressers only to discover a bald patch

slink - yep the nursery is all ready for baby now, well apart from some sheets that we need to get. Then we need a baby to put in it.

Thanks ladies, feel a lot more relaxed. Possibly all the 'oranges' (choc i have been munching... Oh well, just means more pushing

Congrats on scans gone well girls, and good luck for 2moro's scans.
I'm at Docs and GymBabes 2moro, plus bits and pieces to be done in town. All the Dr is doing is filling in forms to give to the MW.

Hiya all.
Maddy- great news!!!!!
Snow- Our little one has a "pudge" too and i'm convinced it's all the crap i craved early on
Slink- Try rock music lol ds1 & 2 loved it

How's everyone?

Snowdrops, I have also been enjoying the tranquilising effects of chocolate this afternoon. Day's gone quite quick actually...

Hope everyone's okay. Good luck for your scan tomorrow Arabica. Glad to hear you're feeling a bit better.

My friend (childless i might add) reckons he's bigger than his dates from all the oranges and juice i craved at the begining.
Anyone else heard of this????

Have had a chat to my mum etc and they all say not to worry. Mum was told i was a tiny baby, not growing at all and i turned out to be her biggest! So just had Creme Egg and am now duly satisfied

Wills - I'm a bit behind on catching up but I'm shocked by your erotic dream revelations .lol. But also, you sound to be having such a hard time at the moment, can I could send you a virtual hug.

Good news on latest scans I think - Snowdrops, I bet Missmibaby is right and Drs just don't realise how we worry over the things they 'want to keep an eye on'. Good luck for tomorrow Arabica.

Oh, and Hellkat - I'm so pleased it's 'only' spd. Hope that makes sense.

I've just got my first scan date through - in just over two weeks time when I will be nearly 11 weeks. If someone could just knock me out, because the waiting is going to drive me mad! I'm wildly excited at the moment - like when I got my bfp, felt I could rule the world

Morning all.
Arabica- Good luck today!
Jamiesam- Yep know exactly what you mean. I feel the same. As long as my back & spd are getting worse it means the pg is growing away!

How's everyone?

Morning HK - has he sun reached northants yet? its bright here this morning, cold but sunny.

Arabica - good luck for today, we'll be thinking of you
