****July 2018 Mummies - Tri 2****

Aw PB hope appointment helps. You've not long had dd so with that and the pregnancy your hormones just be all over the place. It's great yoive even made the appointment to see if it's PND. I hope you start to feel more like yourself soon . Hugs xx

Shep that's a lovely idea taking dd to buy something. I may steal that idea for the Saturday and let her pick. Loch Lomond would be lovely!

Jem definitely keep an eye and don't be afraid to mention it. You have more chance of pnd with a history of depression. You can also get pre natal depression. So if you feel it's more than just hormones definitely make an appointment with the midwife. I had depression/anorexic in my teens. Then I had pnd with dd and I hated myself for it. I felt like it meant I didn't love my daughter enough which rationally I knew was stupid. But best thing I did was go to the doctor for it. I've been fine since xx

Speaking of holidays. We're going away with the whole family to Berwick in April. Literally everyone. I'm not looking forward to it at all. I'll be about 27 weeks. And I'm supposed to be in the Caribbean in two weeks time!! Think it's got me a little down.

Cancelled when we got pregnant, plus there was so much distruction on the islands we were visiting with Jose. Now I've convinced myself I could have went pregnant which is probably not true lol as im not having the easiest pregnancy. I'm sure the flight would have killed me, and the heat. Part of the reason I booked my scan on the 31st is because we were supposed to be in New York that day! And I sound like a shallow bitch. Ugh! Just resigned myself to the fact we can book again when this baby is over 2

This is a pic I took in Newquay, April 2015. You wouldn't believe it's April!!

I normally go to a place called Perranporth (my grandma's birth town) which is close to Newquay x

Looks beautiful. I'd rather go there than Berwick haha xx

My scan is in 9 days omg! Do you guys think it's okay to take dd with us to this one? It's a 6 so easier to just take her.

We are taking DD, it would be a good opportunity to show her that there is a baby in mummy's tummy (I think). Since the scan is only like 10min it seems pointless organizing a sitter for her.

I can't believe we will know the gender so soon... crazy! From the beginning I was saying girl, girl, girl but lately my thinking has changed, is that weird? Now I am thinking it's a boy. Driving myslef crazy, I want to know NOW!

Oh missed this completely. I know it's a nightmare at that time too. We were going to take her to the 4d just but I booked this one at an awkward time so she'll have to come. I'm hopeing she will be able to see something that she can recognise as a baby. Ugh should have booked the dearer one with the 3d freeview !

Not weird at all. But I'm still honestly convinced I'm having a boy. I'm guessing youll have a girl lol. Same I just want to buy things!! xx

Ivy is a big girl and there is no mistaking that moving object is a baby, it has a head, arms and legs lol I think she will enjoy the experience! If anything the 3d pic hardly looks like a baby and would possibly give her a scare lol (DD's was showing a massive hole on top of her head, it scare me!)

I really just want to know - don't care what it is. There is so much clothes to be organised upstairs that I just want it done and out of the way! And i want to know what color dummies to buy lol

Lol you're probably right. She's going either way so..haha! I know, the clothes, we're missing really good sales too lol xx

I'm not too far from Berwick, just over an hour maybe a bit more, I've never actually been though apart from a few young farmer competitions year's ago. I've heard the beach is nice there but we usually go to the beaches a bit south as they're closer

 

[PeanutButter]

Ah I love cornwall, pasties aha yumm.

I've lost half a stone, how much is too much in the second trimester? Just no appetite, haven't eaten and been up since 6, meh. Hubby keeps getting mad about it :/

 

[JemRose]

Wish I could lose weight!!! I have no idea about what is too much, I'm just panicking I'll be told I've put on too much x

 

[LuckyLaura]

Ooh Shep where are you thinking of? I've been wanting to go up to the cabins at Loch Ness since I moved here but never got round to it. It will be lovely I'm sure though whenever you choose Scotland is so beautiful Xx

KHTW so exciting mine is on Friday and I forgot we finally hear the heartbeat!! Bit worried about my BP but just have to wait and see xx

PB you'll be 8 days then right?

I can't believe we'll all know what we're having in 2 weeks! Well except GG and her superhuman willpower lol. Going to be such an exciting thread for a bit. I've seen really good baby clothes sales and it's driving me insane not being able to get anything.

I wish mine was soon but it's not for ages 3rd week of March

Sorry shan I missed your post. I haven't got a clue how long I'll just go with what you say. I'm not even excited atm :/ hoping I will be close to the time x

 

[Shanivy]

PB I think you'll be okay. It's not like you're purposely starving yourself. I've lost weight too for once in three years haha. When you've no appetite, you've no appetite. I'm sure it won't last much longer xx

Laura mine was Feb 16th but I booked a private for earlier. Do you have a preference? Xx

I dont have a preference. I initially didn't want to find out the gender but then realised how awful gender neutral clothes are and then how beautiful the gendered stuff is. My husband also wants to find out so I thought why the heck not haha we heard the heartbeat at our last scan at 12 weeks which was awesome and I'm looking forward to my next appointment at 16 weeks on 5th Feb but what actually happens at the 16 week scan? Haha xx

Aw hun definitely worth making an appointment. You've not had it easy lately either with flu, dd teething and generally looking after a baby plus 1st trimester. Just to be in the safe side. Hugs xxx

 

[PeanutButter]

Yeah, had a phone call Friday night saying I need to come in tomorrow for GTT cos I need it asap cos I had it with DD and there's diabetes in my family (my mom and her sisters), and I'm obese. Nearly passed out with dd cos your not allowed food for 12 hours before the first blood test, then you get a very sugary drink then have to wait another 2 hours and can't have water for your next blood test. So 14 hours without food. I mean this time round Ishould be OK cos I'm not eating anyway. It takes an hour each way to walk tho might affect it.
You can't eat anything if you have GD the and I'm sure when I finally feel like eating it'll make me crazy, food usually effects my emotions alot.
Sorry just feeling shit and anxious about it :/

 

[JemRose]

I feel the same PB, my mum has diabetes and I'm overweight so I wouldn't be surprised if I get it! Although I literally can't go 5 mins without food atm I'm just so hungry lol.

Don't panic about it, if you have it you have it and you'll learn to cope. Good luck though, hope it all goes well x

 

[PeanutButter]

Jem, when is yours 28 weeks? I was waiting for mine at 28 but then that happened and made me panic x

 

[JemRose]

I have no idea, seeing the consultant Wednesday so I guess he'll tell me then x

 

[KHTW]

Ugh the GTT sounds absolutely awful!!!! Sorry you have to go through that x

 

[JemRose]

I just hope I don't get it cos I feel like I will blame myself for being overweight :/ and they'll probably say well that's what you get when you're overweight x

 

[PeanutButter]

Jem, ikno someone who got it and they were quite fit and healthy ate healthy all the time etc. Don't blame yourself x

 

[KHTW]

Jem, PB is right, don't blame yourself. In fact if you have to blame somebody blame your mother x

 

[JemRose]

Haha thank you I'm sure I will blame myself as that's just what I'm like lol x
