Due August 2012 Thread

Ye, i put in a few newborn baby gro's into the bag along with some small 0-3, although hard to know if i'll get any use out of newborn at all with the size of this bruiser :-) penneys had some nice bits a few months ago anyway, not sure about now! I got lovely one's in asda a while back too, they feel gorgeous after being washed!

Ye think i might actually just hibernate. Light the fire n watch movies for day :-)

the sonographer last week estimated mine at 4lbs 3oz already!!

due the 19th but i have a feeling that i'll go early! Don't know why!
What date ru? I don't mind when i go once i've the bag packed :-)

i know ho u feel in a way. Its mad to think after another 4 or 5 weeks any of us could be going :-) i am so excited about baby coming but am also looking forward to getting back to myself, being able to sleep when i do get to bed etc. I think i have finally made my decision to bottle feed, it may be a bit selfish on my behalf but def leaning towards them anyway. u breast feeding? Have u done ante natal class yet? We have ours monday week, its just one full day!

i just slept for an hour on the couch, this is ridiculous, i'm only awake a few hours after a good night sleep! Has everyone decided on names?? We've a few boys and girls names but nothing decided as yet. Its so permanent ha ha. Big responsibility :-)

afternoon ladies, we have a few names picked out and when we see her we will decide :-)

glad you found the classes helpful pushki
i have to say i did

Have to take sweets to the classes as i get very faint at the merest mention of tears or stitches!!
Wow grindlewaid that was a fine weight for a baby at 32 weeks and at birth! A month early too good god!!! Really must get the skates under me and pack my bag!!
I got a few lovely newborn sleepsuits in tks maxx , they are pretty tiny !!
Not feeling good at all today, feeling very down about everything. Just really feel that im on my own now and its a pretty scary thought :-(

I created a new account :-) i was going to go into mothercare but i just find shopping of any kind really stressful at the moment! Just ran into tks maxx and got out as soon as i could!! Just feeling really nervey and anxious

Yes October. I feel exactly the same as you do now, completely overwhelmed! Virtual hugs** i think everything is hitting me now like how much my life will change shortly .
I am worried too about the birth. Even getting stressed about the maternity pads!! Id. Like to get ones with wings too :-)

don't worry, we are all in the same boat!
The birth is playing on my mind a lot. Its just the not knowing, not knowing how it going to be. I have no fear of c-section and i think Thats because i would know exactly what is going on / going to happen! does that sound silly?? :-) the having the baby at home n my life changing funnily enough does not bother me! Hugs to everyone, and just remember we're all exactly the same!!

i think it can depend on whatever size the mammy is, i was reading somewhere about it before that if the mother is biggergor carrying a few extra lbs as i like to look at it he he) she might not put on as much!

glad your feeling better today pushki, id love a bath but don't have one in my house,

i have only put on just over a stone as well but my doc told me at the beginning that i prob wouldn't put on much, in fairness i have only gained a bump nothing much any where else,

i have spots along the back of my neck and the top of my back for the last few weeks they can let a bit itchy at times too

Ladies I found with the maternity pads with my first baby that I was doubling them up side by side, overlapping slightly for the first couple of days. It sounds a bit mad but someone told me it was a good way to do it at the very beginning and I have to say it was the job! I used them on disposible pants for those first few days and it was so handy to just take the whole thing off and bin it and start afresh each time I went to the loo. Hope that's a help
Pushki he said he would consider delivering them at 37 or even 36 weeks! So if that it the case it's only 5 or 6 weeks! Aaaagggghhh!!!!! Oh unless I go myself before that!!!!!
I'm trying to not think about the weight thing! I have about 2 and a half stone on now but everyone keeps telling me I'm all bump and nothing anywhere else. I lost the weight fairly quick after my first, hopefuly it'll go soon enough after these two. And also the thought of running round after two babies will surely help
We put up the cot in our room last night and hubbie is currently in the process of sorting the babies' room. Definite hormonal mess here!!! I'm lying in bed and he's doing everything and of course I'm feeling quilty as I feel I need to do everything and organise everything when I really should let others help
On a happy note though we're really pleased with the cot although it's a bit bigger than what we expected it to be and had to rearrange the furniture in the room. It's a cot bed so at least we will get good use out of it and hopefully they will be content to share the cot for a while at first. Fingers crossed!!!

oh also, haven't got much spots now, had them at the start but i now have gotten bloody skin tags everywhere, on my neck n undo my arms, hormones again stimulating soon growth!! Roll on 8 weeks :-)

That is reassuring to know about the whole weight thing :-) i was worried i wasn't eating enough!! New look would you be getting a c. Section? The whole maternity pad thing is doing my head in. Is there any ones there with wings?
