Ooh bod that's great that your scan went well! How many weeks are you now? And now that you mention it, I know that saliva thing you're having...I think...unless I'm now imagining it too!! Good luck with the needles, I hope it gets easier each time :)
Just watched the new series of the syndicate, was really good. If only we could win the lottery, I think I'd buy a time machine to 12 weeks night night all, x

Just done a bit of reading back, so before I forget everything:
Bod congrats on the scan! I would be dreadful if I had a doppler on hand. When is the baby due? I declined a hen do at about 36 weeks last time, and didn't go to the wedding as it was 5 days after my DD was born. But I probably would have been fine with the hen do tbh, in retrospect.
diet congrats on the twins! Wow. How far along are you now? Has it sunk in yet? (apols if it's old news!)
almond glad all is going well - maternity leave is in sight now! Sorry to hear about your kidney problem. Hope you can hold off the c-section for as long as poss, but I am glad that it's been spotted and that you have a plan in place.
I can't remember who asked about exercise but I have just been trying to walk a lot and have done a pregnancy dvd a few times. But last time I was pregnant I did too much early on and developed bad hips, so I took it easy in the first trimester (when I felt dreadful anyway!)
I also wondered about slimming world. Can you actually join when you are pregnant then? I just don't want to put on too much weight as I have also lost a lot since having DD and don't want to go back to square one!
Betty whereabouts are you in Spain? (jealous!)
Nice to 'see' you all

Bod great scan news, I really think the injections could become second nature in a few weeks. I say do anything and everything you can fit in before due date. You'll need things to look forward to otherwise the last slog can drag! I worked pretty much right up to due date with DC1, and then drummed my fingers just waiting as she was a week late. Your body will let you know if you can't do it

Ha ha Bump . Pah to your MW ibip - I've pretty much resigned myself to fact that I will be paying for a scan. Don't want to make a midwife appt as last time I had my MC the next day - silly I know. I have found a place in Kent that has an ex NHS consultant doing the scan, costs about £90 but I figure if there is something wrong he may at least throw some free pointers in as to what I should do next.

bod last time mine were strappy vest tents tops with extra boob support and the pants were under the bump...could just wear normal PJ bottoms I suppose
I did loads when massively PG last time...went to a gig at 38 weeks, it's up to you really
Sorry abt your MW appt pink that private scan is looking more likely then?
Ha ha bump I bet that was eventful!!
garden I know what you mean, it's like tempting fate....I've got a wedding on Sat and booked into an £80 hotel room, gonna cancel and drive but not until the last minute just in case it all goes wrong before then and I'm sure to want a drink

Ok, so as I say I was 6 days late, drove 1.5 hours to ceremony, all sat down in lovely stately home, official says all stand for the bride I stand up and gush all over my tights, quietly say to DH ' I think my waters have broken' he looked terrified and said are you joking and I said no. We actually stayed for the ceremony as there wasn't that much waters! Then I shuffled out and changed my tights and called the hospital, as there wasn't any contractions they said it wasn't too urgent but to have something to eat then pop in in the next 5 hours. So we stayed for the photos and meal all the while strangers asking me about my waters, then the snow started so we drove to the hospital ( contracting by now) arrived with DH in his posh suit and me in my heels much to the staff's amusement. Checked over and sent home, went back in by 8pm ( serious blizzard by then) and had DD at 2.57am :)
And to think, I was meant to be a bridesmaid
