Little lion - YAY for your project finishing tomorrow !!! Enjoy your weekend !!

Superfruity - How cool would that be to be able to skype with a cute bump to your family !!! Has your PPM come across the Bugaboo or Bebe in his travels ?? What are his opinions ?? That is an awesome idea with the preg diary !! Bummer about having to move offices and having less EB time !!!

JLove - I will have the pram posted to me, the postage from that site is $37 with a 3 - 5 week delivery time frame... Yeah I have now decided against the 3D shots !!! Good luck with the doppler on friday !!!!

Lala - My DP builds large commercial farms throughout Aust.. The moving is fun but we would like to buy a house and settle somewhere one day which we cant at the moment as we would never ne there long enough to make buying something worth while.. That soundslike bub moving !!!!! Good luck tomorrow !!!!

MaryLou - Thanks for the info I had no idea about that when folding up the bugaboo !! Something definately to think about as I really want something that is easy to deal with on my own... 8 weeks is so so long but YAY for him being home for a while once he gets back !!! Ohhhh let us know how you go with the doppler !!!! I have a body pillow which I love !!!

Loulla - Yes only had it that one night none since !!! I love bargains lol !!!! Bummer about the sore throat hope its easing up for you !!! Ohhh your baby moon sounds bliss !!! Wow I have not figured out our baby sleeping plan yet ! It sounds like a great plan you have !! Your Dr sounds awesome !!

lala, yayayaayayay !!!! That is awesome, so pleased for you that scan went well & you're having a little girl. Great news.

Lots of pram talk on here, I have not even STARTED to look, although I've started to ask people with babies their opinion on the big ticket items.

I haven't been on for a while so a bit to catch up on ...

Littlelion, that is fab news re your scan. Very happy for you ! Are you starting to feel a bit better yet ??

superfruity, it's hard being in the 'middle' between dating & NT - I found between NT & morph scan a bit like that too, although Im lucky my OB gives me a little scan each time I see him. Skyping your family would be a lovely idea ! Bummer about the lack of access to EB in the office, and bummer about your big commute but glad you're enjoying your reading time. Haven't read Hunger Games I'm afraid !

Jlove, did you get the doppler out yet ???? I hope you found a HB.

Marylou, it sucks having DH away alot. Mine is just back after being away both this week & last week for work, not sure how I'll cope when bubby arrives. I have been feeling pretty tired too this week, not sure quite why, last week I was full of energy !

Loulla, hope your throat is better and woot woot for organising a lovely Easter getaway. I am hoping to do something too, need to get my act together so probably searching for last minute options now. Good that you've got a baby sleeping plan too - I have no idea what we'll do !

HI to everyone else.


AFM, all okay, morph scan next Thurs so looking forward to that. I have been suffering from 'restless legs' at night, googled it & spoke to midwife, she said I might be a bit deficient in calcium so trying to get a few smoothies in, plus cheese which she suggested would be good. Other than that, a bit tired because the restless legs are keeping me awake at night, but can't complain. I have booked myself into a pregnancy massage tonight so see how that goes.

My Mum made me a lovely CD of lullabies (she's a music teacher) so I've been listening to that & will start playing it to bubba soon.
Have a great weekend all....

Lala - AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! A beautiful baby girl!!!!! So happy for you!!!!
Also - MCN is Moder Cloth Nappy. Cloth nappy that looks just like a disposable (not a white 'fold it like this then like this' thing that uses nappy pins!)

Liltuss - Hit the chocolate milk - it's so amazing! It will definitely help with the calcicum! I hope the next week flies for you. Are you going to find out the sex at your morph scan?

Mojo - Only 1 sleep to go until pram playing. Yay!

MaryLou - You most definitely did not make a mistake booking Palm Cove for your babymoon! That will be uh-mazing! I really liked the idea of Port Douglas but the airfares alone were quite exxy. Then the place I had the hots for was booked out So then I got the sh*ts up and didn't want to go there anymore (I blame tbe baby hormones!)

Loulla - ooooh... The Blue Mountains will be lovely! I bet you're so excited about it. How are you going with names? Do you have a list of names that you refuse to use because of... shall we say.... bad experience?
My "Will Not Use" list is way longer than the names that I actually like!

AFM - Weekend - WHOOP WHOOP! Sleep ins coming my way soon! Have convinced hubby that when we drive home from Tassie / Melbourne we'll go via Ballarat so I can go to Pram Warehouse (yay!) Has anybody else had a look on their website? They have so many amazing deals on lots of items. Their shipping prices are quite fair too (www.pramwarehouse.com.au)
I woke up last night screaming with cramps in my leg... Hubby was lovely (you can all guess what's coming right???). "Just stretch it out, you'll be fine... geez labour is going to be fun with you"
Bless.

Oh yeah - you guys were talking 3D scans. I'm not planning on getting them (don't know if I've shared this before? We'll blame the old baby brain if I have). I really don't see the point cos I'm not planning on finding out the sex of the baby. Besides - I'd sooooo much rather have newborn photos instead Before bubs is 2 weeks old... (have a plan!)

Love to you all

[Loulla]

Little lion, yeh the poke was sort of like a little tummy jump! First time... every day is a new experience How's the vomiting going? You are so almost 8 weeks! When are you thinking of booking in for your morph scan?


Mojo, a pram report is mandatory!


Liltus, good to hear from you. Restless leg sounds uncomfy. Some evenings I heat up a big mug of milk in the micro and then add plain cocoa powder and Nestle malt powder and its delicious. I try to remember to take my magnesium and calcium tabs with it. But it's cold here in Canberra right now, where are you again? Naaaaw baby lullabies And morph scan in 5 days wow, we are all progressing so well. What a lucky group we are Gender reveal or nay?


lol Fairey, yes there are so many bad names out there for so many reasons We actually have had a boys name since our first pregnancy and then with this baby we went over a few but still loved our original one a lot. It's pretty lucky really because you have to both be so certain about the name and we happen to both be! Before we found out gender, we couldnt agree on a girls name and luckily we dont have to now oooh pram warehouse - will have a look. Hey I've been getting lots of midnight leg cramps too and TBH stretching my calf out the the opposite direction really does stop it and I NEVER knew this before this pregnancy! For many years if I dont take magnesium tabs (and a little more than the recommended daily dose) I get them. I recommend the blackmores mag tabs. Im taking cenovis ATM but theyre not as strong so I need more. It even says on the back of the bottle, may help with pregnancy leg cramps



I want to get some nice shots of me pregnant... might have to ask DH to go out to nature somewhere before it gets too frosty!

Hello my gorgeous girls.


Woohoo lala congratulations on a perfect scan, and a little girl! So happy for you.


Loulla and Fairey I have teacher friends who say it is tough picking a name that doesn't remind you of some student. I suppose that's why most of them have gone with more unusual names. I have been into names since childhood so you'll often see my on the baby name section of EB!


Fairey thanks for the tip on pram warehouse. DH and I like to check out a new baby store each weekend, so I have another one to add to the list!


Liltuss the lullabies sound beautiful. What a nice idea.


As for me I'm writing from my iPad in bed. I think I've been hit by a mild cold. (Grr Loulla, did I catch it from you? Hehe, hope you're on the mend.) It seems to happen to me a bit during stressful times at work, right at the end of a project, I succumb to a cold. But I got the project done on time so I can chill out this weekend.


I've been experiencing nausea almost round the clock this week. I'm not eating much so it is sometimes hard to know if I'm nauseous or hungry! So I try to force myself to eat three times a day.


I'm trying to decide whether to visit Ob for another scan before NT. he said some ladies opt for it for reassurance (and I've needed a bit of that so far). If I go it will be around 9-10 weeks. So I have a little while to decide. I have my paperwork for NT scan (and bloods) but how far in advance did you book yours?


Enjoy the weekend

Time for a new thread ladies.
