Wow, there are so many newbies in here now. Congrats to you all on your BFP's, and welcome... it's great to have you in here.
And hi to all the other ladies in here too.
Has been a few weeks since I posted as DH has been on the laptop most of the time doing uni assignments. Way too much time passed to try and catch up with everything that has happened.
We had a 3D/4D scan this week (28 weeks) which was really good. I'm so glad we did it. We were lucky that Baby Charlie was cooperating too - he was awake, moving around and showing his face heaps. I also wanted to use the scan to re-confirm that we are having a boy. At 20 weeks, the sonographer said it was a boy, but I couldn't see what she was seeing, and I really wanted to see for myself. Well I can definitely say I saw it for myself this week - and it's definitely a boy. So I feel much more comfortable about going and buying boy things now.
LondonMiss - glad you finally had a successful 4D scan too. And congrats on finishing work.
Lise - glad you are enjoying your leisurely time at home.
Not sure who asked about the morning sickness, but I can say that I've had none... nada... nothing during this pregnancy. I too thought there must be something wrong, and on top of the weekly blood tests I was having at the clinic, I was also doing home pregnancy tests every couple of days, just to check that I was still pregnant. I had no morning sickness, no sore boobs, no cramping at all. I didn't feel different at all.... so it does happen.
We finally have all our nursery furniture now which is great. Everything is still in boxes though, because I have to wait for DH to finish his assignments before we can put everything together.
We are also hoping to go away on a babymoon in a month or so. It will probably only be for a couple of days, but something to look forward to nonetheless. I think that when I go back to work after the babymoon, I will only have about a week and a half left of work before mat leave. Can't wait.
Well I hope everyone has a lovely weekend. I am taking Monday off work, so I am looking forward to a long weekend.
Happy mother's day ladies! Hope you all had a lovely day :-)
Wishes - glad you got the confirmation that you're having a boy! Now the fun shopping part can begin
Wantbaby - hehehe, that is a case of baby brain! I think I've been okay lately but DH did refer to a particularly vague period I wasn't really aware of though he said I've been better since I finished work...!

WARNING LITTLE RANT AHEAD:
My sister and Dad were the only 2 to say it to me DH said I'm not a mum yet so he doesn't wish me a happy one or anything till we have ours here which cut deep cause it makes me think about our first angel soo sad My sister brought me beautiful flowers and a necklace and earrings and a card though after DH's comments I felt undeserving and like I'd lost this one and like I shouldn't get attatched yet!
I had a frustrating day for other reasons. For MONTHS, we've had a big lunch for DH's birthday in the diary and at the last minute, everyone pulled out. Sick kids, hangovers, football matches and most frustratingly, couples who the husband had booked a surprise lunch for Mother's Day without consulting their own family calendar to see that they were already going for lunch. ARRRRHHHH. I felt really bad cancelling the table the restaurant could probably have got a booking, and it's such short notice. DH was really gutted although he pretended not to be.
We went out somewhere local on our own, and got utterly frustrated with a big table with kids next to us, the kids all watching films on their little screens - with sound. Even when the waiter asked them to turn the things onto silent they didn't. I don't understand how some parents can be so oblivious to everyone else around them. Our meal was ruined, and three tables next to them all moved. Surely being a parent doesn't make you oblivious to social niceties?!?! What happened to nice quiet books for children in public? Anyway.
I'm having a major study crises having left it far too late. I now have to write 4000 words on Dracula, which would be considerably easier had I actually read the novel!!!! If anyone has any brilliant insights, do let me know....
