How's everyone going?
I'm 19 weeks tomorrow
Had a bit of a cold and feel crapola and have been feeling pretty irritated over the last couple of days. My poor family!
Belly is quite large and I'm starting to feel sore and uncomfortable. I was huge by the end with jemma so hate to think how big my belly will be with this one.
We've got a boys name now and three girls names. DP can choose cos I like them all. Just need to order my pram and capsule and I'm done. Still got everything from last time. Bit sad I don't need to do much shopping - its half the fun!

hi girls, I am back from my relaxing holiday away in Hamilton Island, hard to come back home and to work.

jlk- sorry for your loss hun xx

mummyanddaddy2be-I would just start straight away, it is torture wasting a month

Hope everyone else is trucking along well.

I had a bit of a crisis of confidence again while away, I had been feeling very slight movement from 15-16 wks, then it all went away, so when we were on hols, I felt nothing. Because I had no doppler got a bit panicked as the week went on and nothing, but of course everything is fine and as soon as we got home i have been feeling a bit of movement again ( also checked with doppler last night at work ). Can't wait until movements are obvious but then i will find something else to panic about no doubt.
Can't believe I am almost halfway- I am still in denial and have nothing organised, not even mat leave and i want to finish soon, so I need to get my bum into gear.

Welcome back Saffy! Congrats on being almost half way, so thrilled for you Maybe you can let yourself buy something baby related when you hit 20 weeks? Get that maternity leave in. I just found out I have to apply 6 weeks before I want to start - so my application has to be in this Monday!! Obvious movements are so lovely to feel but just a warning - at 26 weeks I still have days where I hardly feel a thing amongst the active days. That's when the doppler comes out of the drawer - ha ha. The ob said the baby most likely just gets into a position on those days where you don't feel so much. I'm sure you're completely aware of that... but doesn't stop panickers like us from panicking!

I hope everyone else is well and no news means good news! Mia- did your ob appointment go all smoothly?

My ob appointment last week went well. Baby is still 10 days ahead in size and looking good. I've now gained 13 kg though. Help - how do I make this stop???

[Rach83]

[Joeve]

[Mich8]

High five Rach!!

YAY Rach

Ladies!

AFM - 28 weeks today so officially in the 3rd trimester BIG is the word LOL One lady at the place I get my lunch from at work asked me when I was leaving, when I said October her eyes almost bulged out of her head. She said "I thought you were already ready to pop!" Great thanks! LOL Reflux and heartburn are a daily thing but what can you do?! Anything I eat brings it on and if I dont eat I'm starving so you cant win!
Have my 3d Ultra sound (just cos) tomorrow, both DH and I cant wait to see our little one not so little anymore!
Mich how are you doing?
I'm starting to feel like as if our baby is pushing against my skin on the inside, such a weird feeling but I'm guessing its her now running out of room more and more.

Anyways hope you are all well xxo

[Rach83]

That's great Mia! Apart from all the heartburn etc. mines just starting now.

[Mia01]

Rach83 - old wives tales say heartburn = hair on the baby LOL so who knows but have to keep the mylanta close by! hahahaha

AFM - went to the 3d scan today and all is good. Our little girl is measuring exactly as she should and we got some nice shots of her smiling away. She's already head down! I was suprised cos I didnt think they did that until later but apparently they do. She's very cute with big cheeks and lips. She was spreadeagled so she was definately showing us she is a little girl LMAO
Hard to say who she looks like but my mum says she looks a lot like my DH but she has my nose (thank god) LOL Not that he has a big nose but his side of the fam do so good that atleast thats my side hahaha
Anyways hope you all have a great weekend!

[Rach83]

I had heaps of heartburn with jemma and she didn't have heaps of hair

It's awesome to have a great scan!

[Saffy]

I've got a preggers avvy- woohoo!!

Hope everyone is going well xx

[Joeve]

Loving your preggo self Saffy wanna have a bump off??? Lol
MS still here it's making me a bit down and my tummy is bruised and lumpy from clexane needles. I think I need to take some time out to think about the good stuff.
Belly rubs everyone xx

[Saffy]

Joeve, I did see yours on another thread just after I posted here, very cute!!
My tummy is the same, everything presses on the bruises and it hurts like mad- stupid clexane, it makes me so annoyed.
Sorry you still have ms, gosh remember the days when you were wishing for it
Soon you will feel movements and then that is something nice ( or have you felt already?) to focus on xx

[Joeve]

Can you inject anywhere else? I have started doing them further and further from the centre of my belly. Its horrible but I am too scared to stop them!
No movements bet you are getting some lovely ones now! So exciting
