Well ladies this is my last week on this board then I'll be heading over to the 3rd tri! I can't believe how fast it's flown by! Myiceisonfire I hope you're ok after almost being run over! I had the same experience last week so I know how you feel, my heart was in my mouth for a while after that! Have a great week…

Good morning ladies, I hope you've all had a great weekend. I didn't get my lazy day in bed on Saturday, instead we went shopping and spent time visiting my Auntie and didn't get in until 9pm then up at 3am Sunday (over ate on Saturday and it laid HEAVY!) Well I'm officially 6 months today :) and the sun is finally shining…

Hi Ladies, Everyone is a bit quiet on here this week - how's it all going? I feel really refreshed today after my mammoth sleep of 11 hours last night (albeit to get up a couple of times to pee!) Everything seems to be taking much more effort these day but that's to be expected! Any plans for the weekend? I've got a date…

OMG! I feel for you! Hang in there sweetheart xxxx

Hey Helen, Daughter's birthday was fab thank you hun..... as anticipated I ate FAR too much cake and carried on into Saturday! You're braver than me weighing yourself - I'm not going to do that for a couple of weeks after I've been walking properly again for a bit..... I'm HUGE! Have a fab Monday xxx

Hi Speedyme, Yes I agree with everything, there's SO much more information available now, it's amazing! It IS very daunting to think we're starting from scratch all over again after so many years but like you I have a new hubby who has no children of his own so it's a very exciting time for us all. I ate FAR too much ALL…

Hey ladies, And a very happy Friday to you all! Today is extra special for me as it's my daughters 13th birthday! I can't believe I'm going to do this all over again after a 13 year gap! Quick question - (this may sound silly!) as it's such a long time ago will my body 'remember' what to do during birth from last time or…

Hi Emily, Feeling MUCH better now, thank you. I had my 25wk check up yesterday morning and everything is 'normal' - next appt in 3 weeks. I've been slacking on the exercise front too and now it's awful weather over here in UK, gale force winds and downpours of rain so I have to take the car to work :( hopefully the April…

Welcome Dawn :) great to see you on here. Your workouts put me to shame! I'm very envious :) I'm 36 too and hubby is 45 - I have a daughter from prev marriage who will be 13yrs old this Friday so quite the gap for us! It's like doing it all again for the first time :) Best of luck with your 4th pregnancy xx 25wks +1 day

Hi Melissa, We'll miss you on this board but I'll see you in 3rd tri in about 3 weeks :) today is the first day I've been out of bed all week. That bout of cold really knocked me off my feet and with the non sleeping through the blocked nose / jetlag / heartburn I've been a very grumpy Sarah! Hopefully turned a corner and…

Thank you hun xx

UGH Help ladies!!!!!! I've come back from the States with a stinking cold and terrible heartburn.... not slept a wink in 3 nights.... Any advice would be greatly appreciated...... :(((((

Good morning ladies! Our scan went well yesterday...in the end! Little Ava Jane wouldn't move again for the measurements so I was asked to go for a walk and have some chocolate (ok ok twist my arm!) well she loved that and turned around perfectly. All measurements now recorded and everything is great. It's hard to…

Hi ladies, I'm due on 30th July with 2nd daughter - my first will be 13yrs old when this one arrives so it's like doing it first time again! We had the 20wk scan 10 days ago and going for 2nd 20wk scan tomorrow as some measurements weren't obtainable due to her position. Have a great Monday :) xx

Hey Helen, We're both having scans tomorrow afternoon - just wanted to pop on and say I hope everything goes great with yours. I will update on Weds morning. Hi to everyone else, will write more weds, promise xx

Hi Emily, Yes hubby is from Haverhill, just north of Boston, MA so we're heading there for 10 days :) this time next week we'll be at the airport! SOOOOO excited (and a little anxious as we don't really 'do' baby showers and the likes over here! All of hubby's family have it organised though and I'm going to be thoroughly…

Good morning ladies and happy hump day :) I hope everyone is having a good week so far - no niggles from this side of the pond thank goodness. Counting down the days until our 2nd '20wk scan' next Tuesday to get those final measurements (if Ava behaves this time!) and then we're coming to the States for my baby shower with…

Hey Melissa, Good luck with your studying, I'm sure you'll pass with flying colours! My pain did go, thank you. I have stopped wearing the ankle weights when I walk now, just incase they weren't helping the situation! They've been retired until after Ava arrives, much to my hubby's delight. xxx

Hi ladies, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend? Nothing new and exciting with me - not much sleep over the last few days, not due to baby but my hubby's silly shifts at work so I'm absolutely shattered today and looking forward to a very early night! Just before my walk at lunch today and got this shooting stabbing pain…

After slacking somewhat of late and walking the 'short' way to work and back I will, as from Monday, be walking the 'long' way which is a total of 60 minutes every day (approx 4 miles) That's my lot! :) I went on the dreaded scales this morning and I've put on 5lbs in 2 weeks which puts me +13 in total @ 21 + 5 weeks. I'd…

Good morning ladies, Ultrasound went well - sonographer needed to get 2 measurements which baby wouldn't move for and she even tried reclining me backwards so my legs were up in the air for 10 minutes but she wouldn't budge.... yes, baby is a girl :) we weren't going to find out (hubby's decision) but he crumbled at the…

Hey Helen, It's completely hubby's call but so far he's sticking to his guns and wants to keep it as a surprise. I will post again tomorrow with all the news :) so glad your rash is clearing up hun xx

Enjoy your trip Destiny - have an absolute blast! :) We're coming across the pond to visit hubby's relatives in Haverhill MA at the end of the month - they LOVE their food so I'm completely prepared to come back MUCH heavier! hahaha! They're giving me a baby shower too which is something that has only just stated over in…

Good morning ladies! What a wonderful weekend - the weather where I am in the UK hit 75F so I had a short bike ride with hubby & daughter then chilled out on the patio.....bliss! Extremely tired today but no real reason for it. After my 3 days in bed last week I've had achy legs and butt all weekend from Thurs & Fri walks!…

Good morning everyone! Lovely to see lots of new faces on here. Sorry I haven't posted in a few days - I have been reading all of your posts. I've been laid up with migranes for 3 days - I HATE being in bed that long, it's driven me insane! If I could've skipped to work this morning I would have, I was so happy to be out…

Thank you for your comforting advice ladies.... I'm sure I'm just going through a stage of paranoia! Calmness has been restored :) xx

Morning ladies, I woke up in the most foul mood this morning totally convinced baby won't be alive at our 20 week scan (2 weeks today) as I haven't felt any movements yet. This is my second and I'm pretty sure I felt movements with the first before now. Can I ask when you felt your little one move? I'm 18wks 3 days Sarah xx

Good morning ladies, I'm hoping to hear lots of stories about over indulging all weekend from you lot so I don't feel soooooooooo guilty!!!! I woke up this morning kicking myself as to WHY I had to eat absolutely EVERYTHING in sight from Friday through to last night?! Why can I be SO good all week then go to pieces on the…

Thanks hun xx Sarah - I just fry (in frying pan) chopped onion and mushrooms until about cooked and add halves of cherry tomatoes (I have quite a lot of veg). Then I add 2 beaten eggs (if making for me and John I add about 5 - he usually has more than me). Once I think bottom is cooked I add cheddar cheese to top and put…

Hi Helen, I was going to give up chocolate for Lent - I've never tried giving up anything before so this was a first until hubby's friend from America told me he's sent a 'girl scout cookies' package over and it's got loads of choccies in so I'm pretty stuffed there! I'm really craving a veggie omelette now - do you have…
