*****March 2019 Mummies*****

I’ve spent most of today with my head in a bucket. The only thing I’ve managed to eat are breadsticks.

Cocktails in the sun sound bloody marvellous :lol:
 
Awh Akua! That sounds awful. Hope you feel better soon xxx
 
Pregnancy symptom number 579 (I assume!):
Wait for it....

Itchy shins! Well itchy in general but my shins aaargh!

Has anyone else had this? If so have you found a cure? It's driving me ca-ray-zee!!! :(
 
I’ve gotta try this app...

Wait, is Colin a weird name where you are? I’m in the US and that is such a regular name here! Imogen, on the other hand, is unheard of haha

Hope all you march mamas are feeling well!
 
How adorable is this?!?
We finally have hands and feet to watch grow!

(App I'm using is Ovia pregnancy)

I have! I had it a few days ago for about an hour. I just rubbed some moisturiser in x

All Colin’s tend to be about 50+ and have a boring office job :lol: it’s like calling a baby Dave- it’s just not a baby name!
 
Ugh, sickness has kicked in big time, I've kept nothing down all day yesterday and starting to lose weight already from going off food in the days before. Going to try to get into the doctors today to get medication before it gets really bad. I hate this part.
 
Something a bit fun, in case I’m not the only one behind with the times! Did you know there was an app that you can download, both you and your partner, and it’s like tinder for baby names! Any names you both swipe right on get matched and added to your list!

We’ve already picked names!! But going to try later for fun! It’s called “babyname” xxx

This sounds amazing, I've downloaded it, will get David to download when he wakes up!

We've never picked names in advance so it will be a wee novelty! He teaches though so hates every name ever. Took ages to bane both our kids
🤣

I started making a baby grown yesterday and majorly messed it up because my brain is mush. I put it down and I'll pick it up again today. It's this style that I made for my sils baby

Sorry I’ve been absent for a few days, been so tired and just not functioning. After a 13 your sleep I was awake for 3 hours before nodding off again. Realised that this was NOT normal. Went to see my chiropractor who said my sacrum was not moving properly which causes all the problems I’ve had, but luckily it’s often a one appointment fix so I should be feeling better. And I must admit I’m feeling so much better today. Unfortunately had to let our ds have the fan last night so I didn’t get much sleep. Felt like I was drowning in sweat.

Selly that app sounds amazing. We’re rubbish with boys names so I think I need it.

We were looking into gender blood tests but the problem is that if you’ve had a boy before then their dna can hang around for up to 3 years. It’s unusual, but possible, so we decided that since our 18 month old is. a boy that we wouldn’t trust the result if it said boy anyway. I think the harmony test looks for the same thing but at a much higher cost because of the extras.

Summergurl feeling like a bad mum here too. I keep leaving ds1 to keep an eye on ds2 while I sleep. I honestly don’t know what I’d do without him. I think we just need to remember that we all have an extra child to look after now. It might still be inside, but it’s definitely there and we need to be mindful of giving the new little one time and attention too. Society makes us believe that until the baby is born it’s not a real person, you can get on with your life because you’re just pregnant. I realised with my last one that’s not how I see it. My new baby already needs time and attention. It’s just easy to forget.

Anyone got any amazing plans for the weekend?
 
Well said Hayz!
You made me feel better and I wasn't even feeling that guilty!
Well, maybe a little...
DD is quite good, she keeps bringing me blankets and tells me to sleep so Peanut can grow.
Bless her...
We were going to put our Batman burgers on the BBQ but we had a storm so it depends entirely on the weather.
There's a circus in town so I may wander up and get tickets for that.

You? I'm glad you're feeling better!
 
Feeling very nervous....

Had my GP appointment this morning, he sent me for blood tests to confirm pregnancy given I had a false positive last year.

Eek....feeling anxious that it'll turn out to be a false positive again although the circumstances are different this time around.

How likely is it to have positive CB tests at home but negative blood test? I'm 27dpo and if pregnant, 5+5 today.

EB I’d be surprised if it was a false positive this far along. Try and relax. I know waiting is awful.

Sparky where abouts are you? We’ve not even had a hint of rain in north east Hampshire. I’d really love a good storm to take the heat out of the air. We’ve had a few forecast but the day before they’re due they disappear from the predictions. Your dd sounds gorgeous. What a little sweetheart.

Not got much planned. Tilting around the new bath and hubby is finishing off a new plant pot for me, not that this is the best weather to be putting new plants in. Swimming with ds2 on Sunday which is lovely, not that I go in anymore, it’s a hydro pool so 36 degrees which is apparently too warm for pregnancy. I’m struggling to lift him anyway now so I’m happy watching hubby go in.

Chase, I love that baby grow. I’m really fond of that style - fewer poppers always makes life easier. I wish I could make things. I actually have a sewing machine, just no idea on how to even thread the blooming thing lol
 
Wow....Doctor has just called already with blood results, how quick.

Confirmed I'm pregnant. :-) Hcg was 6594.

If you ever want some help give me a shout, I teach sewing ;)
 
Chase love that baby grow!

I've never heard of itchy shins :rofl:

Hayz you made me tear up. You're so right. The little humans in us need attention, time and love too. It is all too easy to forget that you've got to have time for you. I am certain if my DD wanted something or someone to play with she would most certainly let me know!

Sparky your DD sounds so sweet. Send her my way, my DD likes to just pile toys on my head when I lay down :rofl:

Aweee congrats EB! :)

Oh god names! We are really stuck this time around.
Last time we had DD name from the moment we found out and had a boys name a little while later.

This time we just cannot agree.
I love Penelope-Jane, Ivy-Jane, Xanthe-Jane. DH hates Penelope and isn't fond of the other two either.

Boys I love Freddie & Reggie and again DH is a bit meh on them!

I've got to have a name that is a y or ie sound at the end and the girls name has to be hyphenated with Jane. Picky much?! :):roll:

Summergurl, my ds used to try to wake me by shouting ‘Ma’. Just recently though he’s taken to smacking me in the face with a toy car. Not pleasant.

I don’t want a name that rhymes with my surname, which ends in er, so names ending in an ‘a’ are out, despite them being my favourite. Luckily we’re just having the one and we’ve already decided on Danni for a girl (Danielle on the birth certificate). It’s just those pesky boys names. Hubby likes Kieran but I’m not keen. I’m mean it’s not awful, I just don’t love it. Saying that I went through the top 1000 boys names and didn’t find a single one that I liked so I think I’m a bit stuck.
