God I would kill for some prosecco tonight. I don't miss the alcohol as such I'm not a huge drinker any way but I do like the taste of prosecco and I'm in need of that nice bubbly refreshing taste. I can't seem to quench my thirst today. starving right now to but I'm trying my best to wait until 5pm before I make dinner or I'll snack loads before bed and feel gross for it

been sat for a little while feeling baby move which is nice as I've had a couple of days with nothing. I'm look if forward to when the movement is more regular even though I know that's a good 6 weeks off

I made a start on sorting DDs baby clothes today, I can't believe she was ever that small, I laughed though I bought a few tiny baby bits as the midwife predicted she'd be between 6 and 7lbs but she didn't wear them as she was born at 8lb 4oz. atm I don't feel like this baby will wear them either

Schloer is my go to if I need something bubbly and refreshing. Love it.

I am looking forward to the more regular kicks and feelings as well.

I am not feeling great this afternoon. Just came over super tired about an hour ago. It feels like my body is just shutting down though. Hoping an hour's nap now will help.

I don't mind schloer but it's a bit too sweet for me

do you serve in the afternoons in the pub GG or just evenings?

I had a busy day today; DD's football at 10am, then 3hr at work, then shopping for DD's shoes (our fav store streetstompers has sales on so we got 2 pairs of great shoes), then went to toysrus to check out sales and got baby bath with back support which I should've bough with DD but didn't. As soon as we know gender next week we will buy some more bits. Now having mcdonalds and finally chilling on the sofa!!! x

 

[KHTW]

Well done Shep! That's my plan for tomorrow... feeling emotional already!! x

 

[Shanivy]

I feel massive!

Well you look beautiful! No denying there's a baby in there xx

JaneyJan you look lovely!
17 weeks for me today, I look fatter and fatter every day, still not pregnant looking!
Had a burger king today, so happy haha x

 

[Shanivy]

My cold is still killing me. Couldn't taste dinner so caved and treated myself to an spicy Indian. And now I'm trying desperately not to throw up :/ The fucking joys of pregnancy...and stupidity. On the plus side, baby is moving about right now for me, probably going what the hell was that lol

Have a nice Sunday everyone. xx

 

[JaneyJan]

Hi guys. I haven't had any ligament pain yet like in the beginning but definitely do get a bit tighter when coughing, bending etc. But in the last two days I think I'm definitely feeling the baby moving? Which is crazy as it's my first and I'm only in my 15th week. I felt like a little nudge yesterday evening and then in the night several times a bit of a flip-flop or bubble-popping feeling between my belly button and public bone region. It's definitely not gas! Is this even possible though? So early?? My sister is 19 weeks, slimmer than me and only thinks she felt the baby once, a couple of weeks ago.

Thought I'd upload a bump picture.

It's actually possible to feel quickenings from 13 weeks on. I started feeling mine at 15 weeks but now, week 17 it's really obvious. Xx

Woah that's a relief to know! Not had much movement today but sounds like from the other comments that that's very normal for the next few weeks.


Thanks for comments on the bump. I went looking for another maternity bra today... Somehow in the last two months I've gone up potentially 3 sizes? I walked away after two trips to the fitting rooms with larger sizes and thought this is ridiculous!! Too embarrassed to go back with even bigger ones! Usually wear 36D-DD and now 38E doesn't fit!? OMG I hope they don't get even bigger!

LOL my husband just glanced sideways at my phone, smirked and said, "talking about discharge again?" He got the death stare.. Men.

Ugh horrible nausea Shanivy, I have enjoyed about a week of not feeling sick, and then today it all came flooding back and I thought wth... Hope you feel better soon xx

Hahaaa, sounds like the kind of conversations me and Dan have, lol.

Shan, I hope you feel better soon.

We bought a pregnancy pillow today and I fucking hate it. I've tried for an hour to get comfy in all manner of positions and nope fucking no no no!!!

Luckily, it's also designed for nursing and baby to be propped up in so it will no doubt go back in the box until then. Dan is down the pub. I told him and he's announced that he will try it tomorrow night to prove me wrong. Lol

Not gonna work sweet cheeks, Cheryl says no!!!

 

[Shanivy]

Haha GG I think your the 1st pregnant woman who hates her pillow. If Dan uses it tomorrow night definitely take a picture for the baby album lol xx

Feeling fine now sickness wise, just think curry was too much and disagreed with me. I'm feeling like such a moaning bitch lately, the sooner I'm feeling well, the better. Gender scan on Wednesday so counting down to that. My midwife gave me her mobile on Friday and told me to text her the gender lol

Oh Jem happy 17 weeks, we're flying through these weeks!! Xx

 

[KHTW]

Bloody colds! DD is getting over hers but now hubby has it!!! It's only a metter of time before I get it

So excited for you gender scan!!! Mine is in 6 days yay!

GG what pillow did you buy?! I swear by the long straight one xx

Well no heartbeat today. A bit gutted. OH came and sat outside just incase and it didn't get done and with all the other stuff I forgot.

I met my other midwife today and she's lovely. She's from Belfast too so that was weird. Literally knew all the same places I did lol. She's the one into the homebirths so we discussed it a bit today. I'm so tempted with the pool at home seriously. She doesn't think I'll move from the green pathway so wants to come out when I'm a bit further on to go through it all and see what I think

BP was good. She's not concerned about my weight at all. Which is good because they were the two things I was worried about. But said my sugars in the last bloods were a bit high for my weight so she wants me to do the gtt on 6 Feb I think:/


Also got booked in for whooping cough for wed? Anyone else?

Mentioned the tightening and she said it could be my uterus still moving out of my pelvis. And that it's probably nothing. But if it happens another 3 times today to phone triage and get checked because it's a bit too early for Braxton hicks? I don't know what to think about that

I nearly had a heart attack when you said no heartbeat! omg!! It took me a moment to realise that you meant they didn't let you listen to it! I'm surprised because they let us hear it at our 12 week scan thumping away! I am sure you will get to hear it soon tho hehe

I was just reading over the whooping cough and flu jab stuff last night. need to get those organised.

My mum has found a place in Belfast for a private scan at 16 weeks to find out gender! since my nhs 20 week scan is actually taking place at 22weeks due to no availability of appointments I think Im going to ring the place on monday and see what we can get!!
xxx

Oh ffs I didn't even notice how that looks. I'd edit it but I've been told stop editing my posts haha! We heard it at my private scan but I thought they'd do it at the 16 week appointment which apparently isn't done as standard anymore like it was with dd

I'm using babybond and theyre fab. The woman doing my last scan was the same woman from the hospital so I trust them. Plus they gave me a free 4d and 3d pics because baby was being awkward. They're doing a sale on prices for belfast just so you know hun. Ultrasound direct. Just my personal opinion but id go at 18 weeks instead of 16 Xx

I've literally just booked in with babybond, my gp practice recommended them for private scans! I literally booked in for Wed 7th then came on here and read this post.


We are so super excited to only wait a few weeks rather than til week 22 at the end of March but we will still have the NHS one which will be great and reassuring and hopefully they'll both say the same gender.

My friend had a private one and they said boy, the NHS said girl and then later on they got another one and they said boy haha they were like welll....which is it haha. They basically didn't know who to trust so had to wait until the baby was born to find out it was a boy! Haha xx

my pillow is a corner one and I love it this pregnancy. I didn't last pregnancy but it's great for breast feeding to, saved me having a dead arm.
