Let me know your thoughts xx

New job ! Not great . It’s first time I’ve worked in the private sector and I have a 6 month probation- I’m feeling worried they could get rid of me . I know in a state school I’d be more protected. Worse case I get let go and I’d do supply . I can’t see them taking my pregnancy well . I could be wrong. But I love that it is 3 days a week. Are you FT?

3 Girls . That’s amazing . I have one boy. I dream of having 3 children if I am lucky enough!! I would happily have 4 if DH agreed . I better try 2 first .

I look forward to finding out the sex and then looking at names !

clare198 · 29/10/2022 13:46

Oh dear that sounds tough! Well I hope they keep u if not then probably good to get out!
I was doing 2 days a week but now doing some supply. Lol yes the more the better I say lol! Yes will be so exciting xx

Hello! After worrying I had no symptoms, the morning sickness and upset tummy arrived on Monday ! I suddenly thought - I am crazy - how will I cope being pregnant with a one year old! Still nervous about telling work . I’m desperately hoping I can make it to Xmas holidays without them finding out and I will tell them in Jan when I am 13 weeks .

How are you doing lovely ?@clare198 xxx

clare198 · 16/11/2022 18:53

Lol I was the same and the nausea has now hit me like a tonne of bricks! Can't decide what I want to eat but always hungry. So glad ur ok tho, and don't worry about work it will all be fine. I'm good, had an early scan so that was nice and reassuring and seen midwife so all on the move now xxx

@clare198 i am thinking about an early scan . How many weeks were you ? I’m 7
weeks next week so wonder if I should try and hold out until 8/9 or if I should just go for it !

clare198 · 16/11/2022 21:04

I was 7+1 when they did it, and we saw a heartbeat so was totally worth it! If you can wait until 8 weeks tho so you defo no ur over the 7 week mark as that's what I was worried about - if I was less than 7 then there wouldn't have been too much to see xx

@Mummawantsanotherbaba morning how r u doing?

OP posts:
Readytochangeme · 15/01/2023 08:27

Hello , good morning ! I’m well thank you. How are you ????? I am in bed about to make toast. Currently 15w and 1 day. Abit concerned as I’ve gained 12 pounds and I have been starving and indulging my cravings . So I’ve been trying to look at how to curb my excess eating . I gained 50 pounds with DS1 and it took a good year to lose and I said I wouldn’t do it again. I think this is the only thing stressing me out . I’m sorry if that sounds trivial.

Have you found out the sex of baby ? I’m desperately tempted to book an app this week to find out ? How are you feeling ? Xx

clare198 · 15/01/2023 08:49

Ahhh it's so hard isn't it - at night I'm so so hungry I'm having 2 dinners! Try not to overthink it and maybe ask midwife for some advice? I have a cup of decaf tea in the evening and that helps.

I'm 16+2 and yes going to find out gender but I can't wait!! So I'm tempted too lol! Xx

I think NHS scan is before 20 weeks so a maximum of 4 weeks really to wait - so I’m trying to be patient but it’s so exciting.
We will have babies here this summer !! I am so happy now I am through the first trimester. And before we know it we will I’ll be halfway ! Xx

clare198 · 14/03/2023 10:39

Lol! Ah amazing congratulations!! We r having a girl too yay! So excited I'm 24+4 so due on the 30th June u? Yes I have a big bump now! This is my fourth child so I think my body has just expanded quickly back to bump shape lol. How have ur scans been? Are you feeling ok? X

Mummawantsanotherbaba · 14/03/2023 13:15

Congratulations on a little girl !

My Scans have gone well thank you . I still don’t know if it has sunk in that I am pregnant .
I have C- section booked for July 1st. Ny birthday is June 29th! I’m extremely excited and nervous .

It will be nice for us to have summer babies . I hope it will be warm so it will be nice to be out and push the pram. My son was November so very cold !!!!! I remember covering him in layers and being so scared but he was my first so maybe I was slightly OTT!!!

I am going on maternity leave on june 5th but we break up for half term on May 26th so I am just counting down the weeks and days !!!! I’m okay at the moment but I know in a few weeks as I get bigger I’ll be really tired 🥱

Not long now for us to go ! So so so exciting xx

clare198 · 14/03/2023 16:21

Oh that's great how comes c-section? I'm thinking a section too possibly but haven't decided yet. Yes I'm going on mat leave then too and yes fingers crossed will be nice and warm x

OP posts:
Mummawantsanotherbaba · 14/03/2023 18:35

Ds will be 20 months when this baby is delivered. As I had a c section with him they told me it is best I have another . I had one with him as he was breach and it was absolutely calm and wonderful . I pray it will be the same abd I will heal well again this time !
we are both on the countdown to half term ! X
