Hi all, still feeling crampy here but I have been having constipation issues (sorry for sharing!) so wondering (hoping) if it is down to that. It keeps playing on my and last night had nightmares. I am 5 weeks today so still have a while to wait until I have my first appt. Nice to see some new people, have a lovely weekend everyone!

I got my booking appointment in the post today for Feb 10th. Going by the measurements at my early scan that'll put me at 10+2. Is this too late?
Not that there is much I can do if it is!

I may have to see if they can change it though because getting the morning off work will be difficult considering it takes over an hour to travel in and we are only allowed 4 hour leeways for hospital appointments. And I have no annual leave left oops

Anyone a member of babycenter.com? My god it's fucking ridiculous. The amount of bad education and abuse on the september birth club thread is shocking!

Will update the front page for you FFO. Your antenatal appointments can be taken outside of annual leave and you're entitled to take the necessary time off as you need to by law. Obviously more awkward if employer doesn't know though.
Not on baby center, have you got a link?

I know they can be taken outside of AL, but I know usual doctors/hospital appointments are only 4 hours allowed of leeway. Also, our terms say that appointments should be arranged for outside of work hours, as I work shifts, so they may say well why can't you book one for the day before when you're off etc.
I might call the midwife and ask, and then at least I can say I made every effort to get it outside of work hours.
Babycenter is horrible. Bad info, bad education, a bunch of idiots. Link is http://community.babycenter.com/groups/a6764704/september_2017_birth_club

I think I must be imagining it, but I keep feeling little flutters. I know it's far too early. My head must just be playing tricks on me.
With my first I had an anterior placenta so I didn't feel anything for ages! Plus as it was my first I didn't even know what I was feeling for! Haha

Mellie, I'm the same. I've been feeling little pops and rolls but way too early as you said. I had an anterior with number two and felt from about 18 weeks I think? Will be interesting to see what it is this time because you feel them earlier with every subsequent pregnancy.
MrsDuckie, how exciting! I need to try this, it was right with my boys but I still take it with a pinch of salt.

We live in a 2 bed house and the second bedroom is currently my office / dumping ground. Plus we have far too much stuff everywhere. So I thought I have until September to get sorted So I started the Konmari method of getting rid of stuff and I feel so good for tackling the first thing on the list- clothes! Plus I need to make some money to pay for baby things so I put lots online for sale. Got to make room for little babykth!

Bad, aha! We have 2 dogs and pretty much no one allows pets. We did find a good one , 2 bed terrace, but apparently the agent is a scam thing, Its called homes2let and they just take your money for a credit check but then find out you cat live there for some reason. We nearly gave them 300 pounds. So hubby emailed them saying we want a contract in writing saying if we pay and pass credit check (we know we will) that we are definitely be able to move in. Heard nothing has back so think it was a scam. Lucky we found out before sending the money!!
We are going to see a place on Saturday. Weve even put up the rentnp were willing to pay for the dogs but no one wants pets. I don't understand why, they're house trained, behaved and are very loving/friendly dogs!
So we're stressing out abut now taht were gonna end up back living with hubby's parents! We've pretty much packed everything though so we can move straight away.
Probably wasn't the best time for me to leave my job, but in 2 weeks fx we'll be moving, and baby is much more important than money. X

Misskth, is that the Japanese method where if you've not used it in a year, you chuck it?
PB, just don't tell them you have pets. Simples! You can also apply for council housing as you've been made homeless and are expecting

Misskth I have been trying to tackle our 3rd bedroom/junk room too! At the moment all our clothes are in there too so God knows where they're going to end up going. Baby won't sleep in there for a good while after being born but I'd rather have it all sorted before September just so it's one less thing to worry about.
PB, I remember trying to house hunt with a dog. It's a bloody nightmare. Half the landlords that'll accept dogs are total dumps. We ended up having to compromise and picked a house with a lot of potential that we had to decorate to make it liveable. But its not exactly what you want to do when you're renting.
