Me and the hubby thought it was another boy. Think maybe because I have a boy already it's hard to imagine a girl. I think the scan looks like my son but they do all look very similar lol.

I'm looking forward to either though.

What about you Mexico??

Oooo tonks not long now till you find out, I find out what we're having on the 13th, so nervous it's unreal can't believe how spaced out midwife appointments are when you've had a baby previously, don't see community midwife again till 28weeks, see the consultant on Tuesday a think he's really gonna have a go at me. X

How do I add a ticker? I have one but for the life of me I can't find where to put the code and I've even looked at instructions on this site!

Thanks

If you go to pregnology website copy the BB code at the bottom of the page then go to your used cp to the left it will say edit signature, I think? Then add it on, hope it works hope I explained it ok

 

[Buttonandme]

Thanks mummy, got it

We are staying team yellow Tonks! Going to be hard but we both agreed so that's good!! I am so excited to find out what all you are having. Not long now!! I have no appointments now until my 20 week scan which isn't until 2 August!!! Time feels like it's going soo slowly!! Xx

How long after your 12w scan did you get your 20w scan date through? I thought mine came through really quickly first time round (within a week/10 days) but no sign yet, 12w scan was just over 3 weeks ago. X

 

[BabyFrog]

I booked mine at the hospital after the 12 week one. Have you had your 16 week appointment yet? Maybe you could mention it to the midwife then? Xxx

 

[Mexico2014]

I'm the same as baby, booked my when I had my 12 week scan so was given the date straight away. I would ring them. Xx

 

[Ikklemoi]

Cornish I had to wait for an appointment in the post came about 2 2 1/2 weeks later x

 

[Tonks82]

I feel the same time is going so slowly!!!

I'm worried about money too. We rent and I don't think we'll ever have enough money to save for a deposit on a house. Money just comes in and out of our account!! I wish my husband would get a better job I resent him for having no get up and go!!
Think I'm just having a down day.

Xxx

 

[Mexico2014]

Money is the route of all evil!! We moved last year and bought a much more expensive house and also just put an extension on so money is just flying everywhere at the moment and we are the same thinking we are going to be a lot of money down when I go on maternity leave. I also don't like the feeling of being forced back to work earlier because of the financial situation as its not fair on little bean!! You've coped with baby one Tonks another one can't be that bad financially!! Well just tell yourself that haha!!! My husband is very laid back and I am the more go out and get and climb the ladder but that won't be happening for a while now! If anything I'll be going backwards!! Xx

Hi all just catching up congratulations on a the little girls �� we don't know yet but have our 20week scan on 25th so hopefully we can find out then. We got our scan letter last week and so excited to see baby again. We heard the heartbeat for the first time last week and it was just amazing loved it.

We're similar to you Mexico. I'm the focused career one and my partner is laid back we also have an extension planned that was supposed to be getting built now but thankfully we hadn't committed to anything when we found out we were pregnant �� how everyone is doing well xx

 

[mummywanabe]

My sickness is back boohoo!! Didn't even make it to the bathroom in time I threw up everywhere and my poor hubby had to clean it all up hope this isn't planning on staying

 

[Mexico2014]

Oh no mummy! That's not good!! Bless hubby!! I hope it's just a one off!! Xx

 

[BunnyN]

Aw sorry to hear about the sickness mummy. I hope it is just temporary. I did throw up the other day but its because I ate food that was too rich. I still have to be a bit careful about the food I select. Other than that I generally get a bit of very mild nausea after I eat and thats about it.

 

[mummywanabe]

I think it's because I put milk in my mashed potatoes and if I drink milk or have it in my cereal then it's made me sick, well at least that's what I'm putting it down to I had no warning it just came up, my poor son must have thought he was watching the exorcist or something it wasn't far off it

 

[Ikklemoi]

Awww mummy hope your feeling better soon. I'm sure I'm getting braxton hicks, stomach feels tight and uncomftable every so often right annoying. Xx

 

[BunnyN]

I've started noticing BH too. How many weeks are you noe Ikklemoi?

 

[Slb24]

Same here ladies. I've been having pains. I was going to ask if you ladies have them to. From what I can gather on Google stretching pains/braxton hicks are normal at this stage.. Boo! Lol xx

 

[Tonks82]

Yep I'm the go getter too. Worked since I was 14 and always performed well in jobs. Even through uni I worked a lot!! The ironic thing is I hate my job now but I'm stuck because of the money but he doesn't care about how much I hate it apparently his hate for his job doesn't compare to mine. We barely survived last maternity as I was only entitled to stat maternity and him being on crap wages meant we had to start claiming some government help. This time I'm on good maternity pay at work so at least I don't have to worry about that. We just have so much to buy for the house we need a small wardrobe, dressing table for our bedroom and a sideboard in the dining area plus all the baby bits (haven't brought anything yet).

I'm also shit with money (have been in bad debt previously) yet I have control over all the finances even his. Another thing my husband can't do. The problem is I love good quality expensive things especially for the baby for example I can't settle for a cheap mattress I want a little green sheep one. And the changing bag I want is £120! I wish I could whack it on a credit card but that's already high enough.

Is any one waking up with terrible headaches, I've been getting them for about 4 days now!

Mummy I hope you feel better soon, I'm still really nauseous if I don't eat anything.

I can't feel any BH yet.

I can feel regular tapping though from bubs just letting me know he/she is there xx
