Mayflower I had my sons pram in my house by 14 weeks i think, i couldn't wait!! Lol!! I think its a personal choice foe some but as you say you have everything else, i mean we have the crib and some clothes etc couldnt keep everything till she was here lol

Had my 25 week appointment today and bump is measuring 28. Booked in for a growth scan at 28 weeks to check size of the baby and midwife didn't seem overly concerned but now I'm panicking! Someone tell me it can be normal

 

[Elliott]

Yay flosi and yay blueeyes!

Can't help with pram issue as not bought one, or anything else yet. But di whatever you're happy with, ultimately having it in the house won't make any difference at all if you want it get it

 

[Orion]

Jenb - if the midwife wasn't concerned then try to relax.

 

[bigbee]

Another girlie! Congrats flosi
And yay blueeyes!!! So it wasn't a dream then haha

Mayflower, not storing the pram in the house is complete nonsense, I am not sure why people don't just bring it home. don't worry about it, Just get it home, play around with it and enjoy!!!! (Enjoy and admire it while it's clean haha!)

We have ours in the spare room, along with other baby stuff all over the house.

I'm using Ollies old one. So it's in our house but it is in the loft ATM.

With ollie I lived with my mum until 36weeks and I left the pushchair there until he was born. As they all said it was bad luck too.

Congrats on team pink flosi!

Yay to feeling movements!

Good luck at the scan Tomoz larly. I'm sure everything will be fine xx

TEAM PINK!!!!!!

Had a wonderful day and scan went well all on target! Feeling a lot better now than beginning of week that's for sure

congrats on team pink!
I'll update the thread in a minute

Girls, what are you doing about storing your prams? We'd initially told the pram shop we'd collect it in April to give us more time to pay it off. It's now all paid for so just sat in their warehouse boxed up and ready to go.

All my family and my best friend say its bad luck to have it in the house before baby is born, I am not superstitious at all and considering I've got everything else in the house I am not sure why the pram would bring bad luck!

I am desperate to have a play with it and see it again!

I had mine in the spare room before Blake was born, I'm not superstitious at all! Mines in the garage now.

Aww glad you've had a lovely day Durham!! What is that?

Flosi glad scan went well and congrats on your girlie... lots of girlies in May now!!

It's a perfect Prep machine, it makes bottles to the right tempurature in less than 2 minutes. Breastfeeding didn't work out for me last time so I doubt it will this time. I'm happy to bottle feed anyway.

Had my 25 week appointment today and bump is measuring 28. Booked in for a growth scan at 28 weeks to check size of the baby and midwife didn't seem overly concerned but now I'm panicking! Someone tell me it can be normal

I measured ahead when I was pregnant last time. Blake was 8lbs 8 oz but he was 2 weeks overdue. It doesn't mean you'll have a big baby x

 

[bigbee]

Blueeyes! I have been feeling movements tonight too. Not too long. But they didn't have a pattern or anything.... Mainly thumps, and a bit of churning!!! Oh also felt them. The movements stopped so I had a glass of cold water but it didn't work. so my dream last night wasn't a dream after all

 

[jenb1301]

Thanks girls. I guess the fact that I've got an anterior placenta could also make bump measure bigger too. Will just have to hope everything looks ok at the growth scan at 28 weeks x

 

[blueeyes34]

Ahh welcome to team pink Flosi

Mayflower, my mum said that about the pram being in the house too, we haven’t bought ours yet but have been looking. Could you keep it at your parents until you need it?

Thanks Buttonbear,Elliot, Tashwink it’s made my week

Bigbee – Yes it must have been real funny we were both not sure if it was real or a dream and then our little ones made themselves know today. So glad you’ve felt movement today too. Mine were more occasional thumps than any kind of pattern too, but I’m sure this time it was baby.

Jenb – Hope all goes ok at your growth scan

xx

 

[TashaWink]

So what names have people got on the line?

The hubby and I have been shortlisting tonight and so far have paired Luke Arthur, Max Harrison and incase its a girl Nicole Evangeline, Jenna dot, Tessa Vanellope. We have so many other names we like but they don't sound good with any of the other names we have.

 

[NatEvz]

We are decided on Alice Paige for a girl and Alexander for a boy but no middle name yet x

 

[TashaWink]

Aw Alice is on our list too. I love it. (Mainly because I love disney and all my names have some type of disney in them)

 

[Mayflower85]

Our girlie will be probably be Ella Mae, as we're not married we're trying to decide whether to give her OH's surname or both of our surnames!

 

[Elliott]

We can't get Maggie out of our heads since day one almost!

 

[x_larlybelle_x]

Freckle will most likely be Toby Alexander

 

[Flosi]

we have had Olivia since the beginning and strangely could never come up with a boys name that sounded right.

 

[Durhamchance]

I think we have our names now, I'm just struggling for a middle name if it's a boy. My son has got 'David' as a middle name after my brother. So we agreed this baby will have a middle name that relates to OH's family. If it's a girl it will be 'Bethany or Beth' after his sister, but if it's a boy we are stuck! OH doesn't have any brothers and doesn't have much to do with his dad after he walked out and emigrated when he was a young boy. He has a step family but I don't think it's appropriate to use one of their names. The rest of his family on his mums side are quite distant and we rarely see them, so I'm not a fan on having baby named after one of them!

I'm stuck. We could use another name from my side as I have another brother, my dad, a close uncle etc, but it doesn't seem fair?

I might repost this in the baby names section to see if anyone has any ideas.

These are the names we have in mind:
Kayla Bethany
Carter ******??

 

[caseysmummy11]

We decided with it being twins we would write a short list of names we both liked and decide from them when they're born. My oh doesn't like many of the girls names I like but so far on our list we have lucy, leah, imogen, jenna, zoey, zara. Middles names im stuck on we give ourson 2 middles names so he could have both our dad's names in his and have thought about using our mums names as middle names but im not keen on my mums name but don't want to offend if we don't do it again. Mil won't mind but my mum might as she can be jealous and petty without sounding too mean. I found it much easier with my son and by this point his name was set in stone. Xxx
