Hi everyone! Well I am due 30th December (according to the hospital) and 3rd January (according to the midwife) - so I am going with the earlier date because I really want to see our baby! I am so impressed with those of you who have started Christmas prep - I have thought about it but...

Hi there, Just wanted to reiterate what everyone is saying about milk and lots of it - also its better if you don't drink water during your meal - obviously you're meant to be having lots of it during the day but not while eating as it assists the heartburn. Whether or not I have heartburn...

Hi there, I know exactly where you are coming from as now we won't be moving over to England in March (not sure when now), my mother in law is the same and as much as I adore her, as a first time mum I think its really important to feel comfortable with the day to day things of looking after...

Hi my name is Louise and I just had my scan on Wednesday. Now they think my due date is 30th December (it was 3rd January) so it could be New Years Eve also! Very exciting stuff - it is my first baby and I really can't wait to meet it! (I don't want to find out the sex of the baby coz I love...

Well I think you're really lucky! I can't wait to feel something ... I definitely get pains as my insides re-adjust to this new growth but no butterflies (which is apparently what it can feel like early on). Perhaps you just have an active baby that is impatient to let you know its there and...

Not sure about true supporters of Man Utd but definitely quite a few of their shirts being worn?!

Hi Pink Lady, Well you know I am a supporter by marriage (just getting into football) but I still check their website and try to keep up with Ian when he is discussing them! Just wanted everyone to know there are QPR supporters as far away as New Zealand! Cheers Loupy Aussie

Hi everyone - ever since I got engaged, my mother has been less than supportive unless she is saying she'll be there for me if (when in her mind) things don't work out! After we finally got married (Dec 04) I thought things would improve but at best she thawed slightly! Now we are pregnant ...

Hi! I am living in New Zealand at the moment and baby showers are huge over here - I am only 15 weeks and have already had different co-workers start talking about mine! Some people recently have asked to have theirs after the birth so they know what is needed and they know for sure the sex of...

Hi - I am feeling exactly the same and actually feel quite relieved its not just me as my sisters keep saying they don't remember feeling like this. Sleeping seems to be the hardest for me as I seem to wake up around 2am (to go to the toilet of course!) and then can't get comfortable enough to...

Hi Sarah, Thats fantastic, I would love to keep in touch and then when we move we can catch up in person! Best of luck with your pregnancy. Cheers Loupy Aussie

Hi I am due 3rd January 2006 with my first.

I really like all the baby names everyone has replied with - don't worry about initials too much, our girls name with be ETA but it was either that or EAT - so we decided how often do kids know other kids middle names! Caleb is pronounced Kay-Leb, my husband is particular about the origins...

Well its taken us ages to find names we actually both liked but we have come up with the following: BOY: Caleb Robert Burns - the two middle names are after my grandfather GIRL: Emily Teresa Alice - these two middle names are our grandmothers (neither of which are still with us) So what...

Hi I am due with our first baby on 3rd January next year. I am 30 years old and am an Aussie living in New Zealand and married to an Englishman! Not only do i have all the planning and slight stressing associated with a first child but we are also moving to England mid March 2006 - so I have...
