    You're dead right to enjoy it! I loved my first pregnancy, sailed through it (dd nearly 6) but this one is a whole other story. Spotting since week 6 every day, it's driving me nuts now. Can't relax and enjoy it. Cramping every now and again, not sure if that's normal at this stage. Anyway enough moans...

    I'm showing already :eek:.. I didn't realise I thought I was just fat ha ha I carried a bit of weight on my tummy anyway and I thought i was getting fatter, my partner last last was like, there-is-no-way- your that size for no reason he said your showing.. i said nooooooooo wayyyyy.. when I looked properly I saw it.. eek.. what sparked it is I saw a friend of mine who is three weeks ahead of me and she was well out and round.. so I came home to my partner saying I saw such and such and I've no bump:(.. it's so exciting ha ha.. I haven't properly rounded out yet hopefully i will soon... :D

    oh sally I'm sure that can be worrying alright.. but you know it depends on where the egg planted itself it could be at the bottom of the womb closer to the cervix.. you know those programmes '' i didn't know i was pregnant'' well sometimes some woman still have there periods throughout pregnancy not even releasing there pregnant.. please don't make your ill by worrying.. when are you back in the hospital.. and did you say it to the midwife what did she say?

    Bring on the bump! :) Yeah, my belly is defo sticking out as well, trousers are starting to get tight, will have to get the fat pants out soon.

    Thanks for your words of wisom! I never really thought about it like that. I'm just praying everyday that things will be alright but I still wonder every day if this will be the day it all ends, I'm so pessimistic. The mad thing is I've been to the hospital loads of times for appointments and scans - the Coombe have been great like that, but the docs & midwives just keep saying " yeah that can happen sometimes" and that's it!! Basically put up and shut up. I'll be grey as a badger before June rolls round.

    Well I went shopping Saturday for maternity clothes and it was harsh.. the range was too expenisive and very little.. I opted for size 18 trousers for work from pennys @ €6 each to do me for a while now I wearing them up way over my bellybutton ( a simon cowel look) under a top it's grand not noticable and I got a few tops and cardigans.. I was very p**sed off though.. plus got massive nickers to do me they are so comfortable.. oh god I cant believe I have five months left!!!!!!!1

    Hi Ladies,

    I might aswell join ye, been reading the last few weeks.

    I'm due number 3 on the 25 June. I've had 2 sections so this will be another one. I'm going public in CUMH. I had preclampisa(sp) on my first so was referred to the high risk clinic for my first appointment so I had a scan at 9 weeks and met the consultant the following week. He decided that I'm not high risk so going to the normal clinics from now on in.

    I have another scan on the 14th as I will be 12 weeks then and my next appointment is in Jan when I am 16 weeks.

    I had SPD (Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction) on my other two and can feel it starting again so had physio appointment today and got a belt and list of excercises to keep me going.

    Here's to a fast couple of months and getting to know you all :p

    Hi Ladies,

    Been a while since I posted....been checking in regularly though. Hope you all had a fab Christmas! I'm due the 9th June so am 16 weeks now....where does the time go?? Went for a private scan a few weeks ago and it was amazing, made it all so so real, super exciting!My first hospital scan is 9th Jan. My 2 sisters are pregnant also (one is 22weeks, the other 32weeks) so yesterday was a fairly sober affair for the women of our family (husbands clearly took advantage, lol!)

    I'd hoped I'd be over the "morning" sickness at this stage but I'm still ill most days :( It's becoming far more managable now tho, thank goodness!

    My little bump is starting to round too which is exciting....wearing my fat jeans n lose dresses at the mo, but am (tragically) excited to go look for proper maternity clothes!

    Hope you all are enjoying a fab Christmas :D

    Hello ladies! I've my first hospital appointment today - 15 weeks and 3 days! Really hope I get a scan so that I get to see my baby again! Fingers crossed it'll all go well. Feeling nervous excited and scarred all at the same time. My mum is coming with me as my boyfriend can't get the time off work which is annoying but at least I'll have my mum probably the best substitute to have!!
    Hope everyone is well and recovered after the christmas/new years festivities!!

    Best of luck with your appointment today, I was given a quick scan by the consultant on my first appointment. I have another next Thurs so hoping I get to see babs again then.

    I was in the hosp for 3 hours on my first appointment fingers crossed it wont be that long for you. I was in CUMH

    Hi girlys, I'm 18 weeks this week, I'm due 6th June and seriously cannot wait!! I just want the baby to be here and to see what he/she look likes and of course the whole mother thing... Eeeek! Just wondering has anyone started gathering anything together yet? Ye know like clothes, furniture, general baby stuff?? It's just a matter of where do I start for me because this is my first and I really don't even know what your supposed be buying!

    Hospital went well! Was in and out in a little over 2 hours! Had a scan and baby sure has grown a bit since 11 weeks! All looks good!

    a.man - I started picking up a few bits and pieces the other week but no major purchases waiting to see what I can acquire off my sister in law first!! :) I'm also knitting some hats and cardigans and blankets (keeps me occupied stops me eating)!!

    I'm on my third so don't really need to buy anything unless I have a girl.. I have two boys so there is a houseful of stuff from them. My youngest is 2 and in a bed in the room with the 5 year old.. So the cot is empty.

    If I have a girl I know that I'll end up buying pink stuff even though the buggy etc are neutral.

    Is this your first

    I'm rubbish, have nothing bought yet! I'm due the 9th June. I had hoped that I could inherit some stuff from my sisters but 2 of them are pregnant too (due in Feb & May) so I'll have to get everytg new (although I'm not complaining, I'm REALLY looking forward to picking stuff up!)

    Most exciting thing now though is that the flutters I'd initially felt are starting to become more recognisable as kicks....in fact I got kicked to pieces the other nite as I was watching tv in bed. It was so exciting! Looking forward to when my husband can start to feel the kicks too as at the minute, think he's feeling a little left out ;)

    Hi everyone,

    I am due June 1st, with our first baby, and we are totally over the moon about it!!
    I have a couple of questions for anybody a little more clued-in that myself:

    1) I am told that it is important to do antenatal classes to help make decisions on pain relief etc. I also really want to meet people around my area who are in the same boat, as I am the first of my friends to be pregnant and nobody wants to listen to a pregnant woman moan about sickness and other symptoms.. (can you blame them?) :)
    So does anyone know of a good antenatal class to attend in the Kildare area? I am around Newbridge myself and would love to meet other pregnant ladies. We've only just moved here so I don't know anybody!

    2) I find it really hard to find nice maternity clothes. Everywhere I go seems to sell very baggy, old-lady type clothes, and I am only a young mama-to-be in mid 20s; where can I find cute maternity clothes that show off my bump rather than hide it?

    And to finish off my rather lengthy post - congratulations to all the mamas-to-be here!

    Awww Congrats! I'm due 6th June and it's my first too sooo exciting! Found a link on here to website for ante natel classes in Kildare but not sure if they are one on one sessions sure you can check it out anyway

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055193158&page=2

    And for trendy Maternity clothes try New Look probably a better selection if you go to one of the flagship stores like Liffy Valley? Or what I've been doing is just buying tops I would normaly buy but in a size or 2 bigger!

    Thanks a.man !

    I had a look at your link, and found a website for antenatal in Kildare. I gave her a call and got myself booked in for March! Hopefully I get to meet a couple of nice ladies for some baby talk!

    Congrats on your own pregnancy - June 6th! It is a very exciting time :) Have you felt any movements or kicks yet? My little one is kicking the bejaysus out of me!

    Ah very good, hopefully it's what your looking for! Yeah I've been feeling a lot of movement at night while I'm in bed and I find if I fall asleep while this is going on I'm asleep for like an hour and I'm back wide awake again.. It's like the baby is saying hey I'm awake now, where do you think your going!

    I did give in and buy a little few bits on the wkend... Sooo weird though because even though I want to buy the stuff it feels like I'm buying them for someone else! I haven't even taken them out of the bags yet. I think once I have my big scan on 24th it will feel a lot more real then! I was only 12 weeks when i had my first scan

    I am told that when we move during the day, the baby is rocked to sleep, and when you try to sleep at night, baby wakes up due to our lack of movement. Mine is most active at night too. I try to go to bed to read a book for an hour first until baby stops kicking. I lose less sleep this way.

    I had my first scan at 10 weeks, as my doctor over estimated a bit. I know what you mean; one feels a bit disconnected still. My next scan is on Thursday, and I am so excited! I haven't bought much either - I want to know the gender first. 2 grannies are waiting to know which colours they are knitting or sewing.

    I think I would like to get one of those 4D scans done by around March/April. Anyone done that or going to!

    Hi All

    Just joining this thread. Also due in June 2012. All goiong well so far. Lots of movement but not keeping me awake just yet. My husband keeps missing the bigger movements which is a pity. Think the baby just enjoys his warm hand and just relaxes when he touches my belly.

    Has anyone booked their anti-natal classes yet ?? I'm on Northside of Dublin and would love to hear of any receommendations.

    Hi labelleshell.. Congrats btw! I find that too with our baby my OH has to keep his hand on my belly for ages before anything happens.. I'm on the Domino scheme in Tallaght Hosp and the midwife booked my anti-natal and I got a letter in the post confirming the date and time.. It's for 3 hours over 2 days.. Does that not work across the board that the hospital book them for you?

    I am not going for classes this time round but on my first I was given the option at my first appointment to book classes in the hospital or they gave me the number of a private class.

    The hospital ones were on for a number of weeks in the middle of the day so it would have meant getting time off work for them. The private one was a one day Saturday class so I rang and booked that and paid for it.

    How are all the June bumps going?

    I've been asked in the last few days if I am about to pop and then someone else was shocked when I said that I was pregnant. So I'm not sure what to think, personally I think that I have a fine bump!!!

    Hey all just checking in! I've 11 weeks to due date!!! On my Easter holidays from school at the moment so thought I'd get myself organised. So I've washed all the baby clothes that I have and made a list of things I'll need for the hospital so there won't be a panic when school finishes (3 weeks before due date)! I've put a few things into a bag already just in case.
    Bump is getting big and the movements are very strong!
    Just wondering how everyone else is getting on? Happy Easter enjoy the chocolate!!!

    Hi,

    I had a hosp appointment yest, in there for about 2 hours. Everything going well, baby was measuring a bit on the big side but my other 2 were big so they weren't really concerned.

    The doc I met was lovely so I was cheeky and asked her if I could recorded the scan she was doing on my phone to show to my 5 year old, he is all about the baby at the moment.

    So now I have a video of my babs, it's amazing I can see the shape of the head really clearly and it's nose looks the same as my oldest.

    I'm not back to the hosp for 5 weeks so I'll be in the single digits by the time that comes around. I'm getting fed up of waiting now. Just want to hold the baby now.

    No complaints with me so far other than feeling tired and uncomfortable :D
