Oh god I drank too much, got to the waiting room and I had pain i needed the toilet that much. Lay on the bed and was like I need a wee so much, put the gel on.....she goes oh wow, yes your bladder is very full it was squishing baby lol, I had to empty it! Next time I won't drink so much!

My letter says to drink a litre an hour before.... did you find that was too much then?

That would be way too much for me. 1.5 pints an hour before and I'm very full but kind of still comfortable. Half an hour later, it hurts and I have to empty.

So...had a booking for 14 today. Got the pre-order through today at 1pm, lol.

The night went really well and they left a great tip but being on my feet prepping and cooking from 4 til 9 was too much. I'm feeling it now. Still, really good to see the pub with a big table of happy people in it. Wish I'd had time to get pictures of the individual beef Wellingtons. I always do pretty patterns on the pastry, they were well impressed.

Did two Wellingtons, a 16oz Ribeye, three 12oz sirloins, two rumps, citrus cristed salmon and five lids meals.

I'd kill for some of the fondant potatoes right now. Should have made some extra for myself.

Anyway, proved to myself I can actually handle it with ease which has made me feel really positive for the future x

Mine said 1.5 pints an hour before, and it was too much. Next time I'm only going to do a pint

my scan was early morning, I had a glass of Orange juice at breakfast then had two glasses of water. I definitely threw up the juice and one glass of water but it was still fine

Well scan went well, bit of a mess up as they didn't tick that i'd arrived so they were scanning people who arrived after, quickly rectified after hubby said why have they been seen first. Lucky I wasn't needing a wee too bad!
Anyway there is a very active little baby in there, measuring at 12w3days and 10th July EDD. So pretty much bang on my dates. Not purchased a pic yet as hubby has had to go out and want to choose one together at £10 each theyre not cheap, would love to have them all. Would of liked a video but not sure if they bother with that.
Had a blood test as opted for all the tests, I will get a call in a week if anything wrong otherwise i'll get a letter. So i'll be paranoid every time phone goes now
I'll get a letter through for next scan, gutted as thought they did it there and then like having something to countdown to.
Still doesn't feel real, although feeling more real

Think we have pretty much decided to not findout the sex at next scan.

We're not finding out either. I'm so glad you had a good scan, It definitely makes it feel more real. In the last few days, I've really noticed fluttery feelings in my lower abdomen and I can easily feel where baby if I put my hands on my belly. It was one of the best things about the scan...being able to correspond the feelings of hardness to where the baby is. I'm aware of there being a bump in there any time I bend over or turn in bed now. It's odd but lovely

 

[KHTW]

Great news Mrs! Glad baby is doing fine x

I admire you guys for being able to keep gender a surprise! X

Congrats on the scan glad baby is doing well. Had bloods done too I wouldnt worry if scan measurements are normal though. Jeez £10? You're so brave not finding out the gender lol xx

 

[MrsLK2017]

Well hubby originally wanted to find out but his family told him when else in life will you get to have a surprise
Will post pic once we've decided which one.
Am a bit annoyed as screen I could see was like 3m away, hubby and MiL could see on the other one which was about 3ft away

Glad scans went well!! Don't think I'll be sleeping tonight lol, scan at 11 tomorrow 40 minute drive to the hospital! So will head off about 10 and hope I don't drink too much x
