Firstly - welcome to the thread and a big CONGRATULATIONS Ninah Nice to have someone new on board - wishing you the very best for the rest of your pregnancy. Not long now till your scan, hope you enjoy every minute of it!

Londonmiss- your parcel sounds so very exciting. Have you been playing and rearranging everything? DH laughs at me because every time we buy something new I make us pull EVERYTHING out and have another look, and sort things into different piles. He always complains but he plays along to humour me...! Hope you're enjoying all the peace and quiet after the Grand Prix - when we were in Melbourne we lived in St Kilda and Prahran and it was bad enough then.

Wantbaby - love the idea of your shabby chic theme for your little girl, sounds divine. I'm still trying to work out which way to go, though like you all our furniture is white. Trouble is, because we're not telling anyone that we know the sex it's a bit hard to decorate properly before the Chicklet's arrival... And I must say, you are very good to avoid all those foods/drinks still. I'm not saying I eat lots of things that are bad for me, but I’m afraid this Chicklet is very familiar with coke and chocolate, and I have to confess that I did lick the bowl the other day when I was making a cake

Paula - have you struck inspiration yet? Hope all is going well!

Smithy - a big congratulations to you on being a nanna!! I'm still trying to work out how you could possibly be old enough to have 5 children, let alone a grandchild but hope all is going well with all the babies Charlie is certainly growing up isn't she? What a cutie.

BOC - glad to hear all is going well - love the photos!!

Kyra - hope you're feeling better xx

Wishes - the 'list' is a list of all of us in here, due dates, nicknames of our bubs and the colour of our bundles (if we know and are willing to share...!). Here's the link to the latest list, though there are a few updates to be made: https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...tc-10-a-2.html Londonmiss is looking after it now so if you post/PM her your details I’m sure she'll add your name. I know what you mean about the scans, I wish they did them more often - DH and I are lucky to be having a 28 week 3D/4D scan next week and I just can't wait!!!

Sammie - hope you're home with your gorgeous boy xx

Phew, think I’ve covered everyone! AFM - well home AGAIN with another infection. All the headaches I had last week were the build up to another sinus infection so at home resting up. I go back to my GP tomorrow because my blood pressure was a little higher than it has been - 125/75. I know last time I had a sinus infection my BP was a little higher too, and I wasn't concerned then but this time I’ve been reading about preeclampsia so I’m stressing myself out that of course that's my problem, and probably making my BP rise even more in the process!! So tell me to get a grip, stop Googling symptoms and just relax ladies, please!!!

In happier news, I finally bought a bassinet, I just love it. It's pretty simple, just a Moses basket on a stand, but I didn't really like all the frilly ruffly ones, just not me. Yet again I had to put it all together myself, but I seem to be getting the hang of that because it didn't take very long at all lol.

Anyway, hope you're all doing well, sending belly rubs to all and a call to those we haven’t heard from for a while (lilmisshavachat? Emerald star?), hope everything is okay - come tell us how you’re going xx
