The Elderberry helicopter, for nub debates, holey tights and boxing pirate scans

[Tallyra]

Open to all elderberry grads and anyone who fits the berry criteria: over 30, 1st to early 2nd trimester(ish) with #1 after trying for a loooong time, and nervous as hell. Come on in for handholding and nub theory!

I think they may have it on NL website too Kat?

I think this is the same dress, though the product code is different, i suspect thats to do with the fact that asos use their own product codes.

Yep that's it Merkin, same one. Handy neckline for BF too, I forgot to say.

I ordered one too. It seems we now have an official berry dress!!

Lovely dress guys!

Nowt to report here other than getting my friend's Doppler tomorrow! Woop woop! (Cue tears and anxiety when I can't find a heartbeat..)

Oo, that is a lovely frock guys: have been on the look out as realised I only have three things I can wear for Xmas parties and two of them are really work-y.

Happy doppling kitty!

Just been asked to do my volunteer work as treasurer of my professional body through my mat leave....er no lol

so when will the baby move up and actually occupy the bump? it's still so low down that it's indecent trying to feel it moving

Dress is nice. will look good dewssed up with jewellery!

sooo aparently we def have w wriggly growing bean in here!

2 arms, 2 legs, brain & heart all as they should be! all very exciting! oh was quite excited and has taken photos of scan pics so he has them on his phone!!

Get puppy with her secret scans

Nice one puppy

So my friend gave me her Doppler today!!! Little heartbeat swooshing away

kitty how exciting!

I was topic of todays gossip at work! funny!

off out tonite with another pregnant friend and her oh. virgin cocktails all the way!!

puppy well yes, it was bloody exciting but just showed dh and all I got was a 'hmm interesting'

Ooh gossip! I'm loving all the attention actually haha!

I just drink pints of lime and soda. Tend to only need 2 and they're 50p each!

Ooh I am jealous of your 50p lime and soda Kitty - not a chance in London where they fleece you for £2.50 for any soft drink.

My DP has been able to hear the heartbeat through my stomach just with his ears for a few weeks now, it's really sweet watching him find it and listen in.

quod really? That's amazing. You're more far gone than me so I doubt it would work for me.

Yay to puppy on the scan and kitty for the heartbeat!

Little worried this morning as clearblue digital still has me at 1-2. I'm around 5 weeks 1 day so surely should be well into the 2-3 now?

funky the digitals aren't reliable at all, definitely wouldn't worry hon. says the person who did 13 and lined them all up so she could see the line getting darker

I've already done 9 since last Friday and sellotaped them to a piece of paper like some kind of collage!

Got one digital left which will save for next week. I've read they're unreliable but still worries me!

funky that's what I should have done! Instead I just left them on the window sill and they faded in the sun!
