Thanks ingridika can't wait to try the pillow out looks so comfey

Kwarbee hope you get a good nights sleep with your pillow you will have to let me know how you get on with it
In very happy little one is more active today
I think it is usually around 25-28 weeks that you should be able to know a pattern of movement for your baby
I think my little one is being cheeky and lazy
Fab advice lacey I usually go for the cold fizzy drink to see if it gets her moving

I really need to make a start on packing baby and my bag
If my little one first time round is anything to from by need to be prepared
I know now I have said that this one will be late lol
Hope your all having a good day

 

[LaceyKeo]

Please do all bare in mind that I have packed extremely early, simply because OH was here and we wanted to do it all together.

Many ladies wait till 30-35 weeks, some even later. Don't be feeling "behind" or "unprepared". Time's going fast but we're still only half way through xx

 

[Crawkay]

Glad little lady woke up a bit for you Laura.

Think I'll be getting one of those body pillows too. Definitely want the gro egg thermometer as well Kwarbee, my friend has one. She had some owl type attachment that sat on the top too. Not sure where things like that come from.x

 

[Crawkay]

Took my first bump picture last night.
I had intended to start from 20 weeks but kept forgetting.

Anyway this is me at 21+4.
How is everyone else's bump coming along?

 

[Angela2612]

You can buy them off amazon

 

[KWarbee]

Yeah I think I remember seeing the owl on amazon, I think they do a monkey and a penguin as well. Very cute, I'm sure I'll end up getting one!

Crawkay, you have such a lovely bump! And you're so slim too. How tall are you? I'm short and my torso is mini so everything seems to pop out.

This was me last week at 20+2:

xx

 

[Crawkay]

I'm 5ft9.
Bump is only small really, depending on what I'm wearing it can be pretty hidden. I wish my bump was a bit bigger like yours. Are you much bigger now that you're a week on?

 

[KWarbee]

Ah, I'm only 5ft4in so I think that's why I'm all rounded. I think I'm going to get pretty uncomfortable later on! I think I'm similar, bump doesn't seem to have grown a great deal over the past couple of weeks, but I need to take a picture this evening xx

 

[BonzE]

Nice bumps girls! Mine looks more like crawkays but I'm also 5'8" and size 8/10! My friend is shorted and had a much bigger bump as there is no where for baby to go!! X

 

[KWarbee]

Yep I'm going to look like a barrell by the end! xx

 

[Crawkay]

Lol!
I'm sure you'll avoid looking barrel like.
Weird how everyone's bumps can be so different though.
I can't imagine what it'll be like having a full term bump. I'm not even big yet but already noticed it's a struggle to bend down gracefully now.x

 

[LaceyKeo]

This was me last Sat at 21w...

Definitely noticeable now... Lol!

Some lovely bumps coming along, ladies. All so different and all so cute to think they're all home to a little people xx

 

[LaceyKeo]

Ima just leave this here with my over-dose of cry-hormones...



Did you ever think, dear mummy,
As the seeds of me you sowed,
As you breathed new life inside of me,
And slowly watched me grow,

In all your dreams about me,
When you planned me out so well,
When you couldn't wait to have me there,
Inside your heart to dwell.

Did you ever think that maybe
I was planning for you, too,
And choosing for my very own
A mummy just like you.

A mummy who smells sweet and
has hands so creamy white,
A tender loving creature
Who will soothe me in the night.

Did you ever think in all those days
When I was nearly due,
That as you planned a life for me,
I sought a life with you.

And now that I am in your arms,
I wonder if you knew...
While you were busy making me,
I was choosing you.

 

[twinkletoes220]

I got the gro-egg too with the owl attachment. I got it from amazon and it was £12 for both bits!! Has anyone got their monitors yet? I really don't even know where to start looking. I just know I don't want to spend a fortune,but want something reliable!! Any ideas anyone??xx

 

[Angela2612]

We have this one but I think ours is the previous model http://www.mothercare.com/Summer-In...---Privacy-Plus-Series/601940,default,pd.html
My dd is 3 and it's been fantastic can't fault it to be honest I shall be taking it out of her room once baby leave our room when he's about 6months ish
It was worth the money for us,
when I went on holiday when dd was 1 1/2 ish I had forgot to pack it so got a cheap one from argos Motorola I think it is it's not bad pictures a bit grainy but did what I needed it too and if you don't like you can always take it back

 

[Laura29]

That's beautiful Lacey

Twinkle I think I'm going to go for the angel care this time and I think we might go for video and sensor pads
I had tommee tippee first time round with movement mat and as scary as it is to say my little boy might not be here now if it wasn't for the sensor movement pad
I don't say it to scare anyone (sorry if it has) or make them paranoid and have to buy one with sensor pads but I personally wouldn't be without one for new baby

Love to hear anyone's reviews on monitors as still not set on one kind yet x

 

[Claireandbump]

Gorgeous bumps girls, hope everyone is well

I can't believe the amount of movement I am feeling, this is my second pregnancy but can't remember so much happening this early last time. My hubby and daughter have been able to feel movement for a couple of weeks but now I can see it all too, all the pokes ...so cute and exciting Is this normal for this stage?

 

[Lola1]

Aaaaah thanks KWarbee, at least I know I'm not the only one with a fat face comment! I really want one of those glo eggs too as a few people have recommended them. That looks like a good deal, thanks

Lovely bump pics And lovely poem Lacey.

Thanks for the advice about monitors. Whatever happened must have been so scary Laura. Think I'll feel much more reassured having a movement monitor xxx

 

[Laura29]

Eeeekkkkk one born every min returns 10th March xx

 

[roxyroo]

Can't wait! X
