Marnin' girls!!! Hope you're all feeling great!

Nat, those movements should get stronger every day now, and more regular. You may notice them if you are doing something in particular. I always noticed the first movements when I woke up in the middle of the night to pee, and I sleep in the recovery position, so whan I was almost on my front, I could feel them. So exciting!

Foolsgold, that is weird! Why would you try to pick up a strangers child who is obviously in the middle of being changed! Come to think of it, why would you pick up a strangers child without asking at all?!!! I think I would have been the same. :cussing:

Have been into the shop and had my hormonal rant about the darned screws, and they are supposed to be sending them out this week...Grrr!!! :shock: :evil:

Now this is my second week on mat leave, and after loving being off work last week, and cleaning, and making cakes and soup, and catching up with friends I haven't seen for ages for lunch, this week I am bored! I wake up thinking about going into labour...every time I go to the loo, am I going to have a show, every time I go to bed, I think will it be tonight, I'm driving myself mad! Getting strong BH contractions about every 20 minutes at since night before last, and they wake me up. They are not painful, and I know this could go on for weeks. :roll: Am toooo excited!!! :P And too impatient! 8) Will try to upload a more recent pic of this little lump!

Anyone want any housework doing/Cakes baking/Soup making? I'm free...... :lol:

Pic updated! This was taken a few weeks ago at Mr ODN's 30th BBQ! The top does make it look bigger than it actually is! :shock:

ODN - what a lovely picture of you and your hubby, you both look so happy and you are going to make great parants. Looking at that pictures makes me what to be pregnant again ...nooooooo.... I can't believe that it could be any day now, I am so excited for you. Your bump is quite low down from the photo, is that recent? I mean has your bump dropped? Usually means baby is getting ready.

Nat - Good luck on Friday, looking forward to your post

ODN- I love love LOVE that pic of you three!! It's beautiful! :D

Why aren't I getting any reply notices :cussing: If I don't come and check, I don't see that people are replying!!

Good luck for Friday Natalie!! I hated people just touching my belly when I was pregnant (worse was them touching it while I TTCing and not yet pregnant grrrrrr)

foolsgold- that is really wierd that someone tried to pick your daughter up. Why would someone just go to a stranger's child and try to pick them up?? (although saying that, brings back the memories of our weekend in Milan. The Italians DO just come and pick babies up and kiss them and take pictures of them... at least they did with Niklas and that was a bit scary at times!)

:lol: Hee hee....no the top really does exaggerate the bump. I am carrying quite low anyway, and bump does seem to have dropped over the last few days. I can breathe, and I'm getting that pressure tingling smarting sensation right low down, so I'm hoping that bubs is starting to engage. The head was on the brim last week when I saw midwife, and seeing her again Tuesday, so hopefully bubs will be down.

It's now August, and I just keep thinking that baby will be here at some point this month!!! :gourpwave: Wish they had an icon that jumped around crazily screaming, that's how I feel today. Very excited, and the anxieties have gone away for the minute. Have a feeling it won't be long now...feel relaxed, and ready to go. Bouncing on my ball like crazy, and am off ot get a giant pineapple later today.

One of the girls from my antenatal group had her baby 2 week ago (5 days ahead of me) and I'm off to see her and little girl this morning, then meeting a friend for lunch that I haven't seen for months, and then my one of my uni friends is coming down tonight, and we are going for a girly dinner!!! What a packed day! :lol: Hard life this mat leave, eh? In the meantime, better catch up on housework!

Hope you are all fab. Nat...good luck for your scan today, hope bubs is behaving, and you get to find out the sex, as you want to. Let us know how you get on xxxx

well girls what can i say!
not a very happy girl today, ive been really nervous all week about my scan and the day as finally arrived and i get the woman from hell to do my scan :x
that women spoilt me and my hubbys experience and i felt like i was in and out in seconds, she rushed through the hole thing didnt explain hardley anything to us she was really horrible and her attitude stank frankley and im just livid!!!!!!

but the baby was healthy and moving around and looked lovely and then it decided to put its legs up, so we didnt find out the sex :x
i think if we had stayed in there abit longer and maybe moved my belly abit or me moved onto my side, i reckon we would have found out but that BITCH!!! im sorry for that but she just rushed us along like she was going to catch the bus and she didint want to be late for it!!

I was really upset but happy at the same time that it was healthy and moving around like it was in a washing machine, bless it!!

We are thinking about saving for a 3d or 4d scan cuz i so want to know what im carrying but we will have to see!!

Hope everyone is ok?
im off for a nice soak in the bath!
i will put a pic of the scan on when i get chance!!

Natalie- I'm so glad everything is fine with your baby... but I can understand your frustration with the way you were treated by the ultrasound technician. I had alot of 3D ultrasounds done because of being a high risk pregnancy and then my doctor just doing them for me. I LOVED them!! (if you look at my blog, I have them all lined up on the left hand side) I would definitely have paid to get one done. But even with them, baby has to co-operate and sometimes they are stubborn!! Niklas was never shy about opening up his legs and showing his stuff, but he did often have hands and feet in front of his face so that the doctor had to try really hard to get a glimpse of it.
Hope you're feeling more relaxed today!

Hellooooooooo!

Yes, I'm back! Am still living in technological dark age - no internet! But I just had to tell you - I'm 6 weeks pregant! After months of clomid and tamoxifen, it finally worked! Needless to say, I am absolutely thrilled/terrified/ecstatic/petrified!

Now, I need to read back through everyone's posts to see how you all are - ODN, you must be about to go into labour? Cheryle - Natalie - everyone, HIIII! :D

Ziggggggggggyyyyy!!!! I've just nearly gone into labour!!!!!!! :lol: :bighug:



Yeaahhhhhhhhhh....I've just gone nuts at the computer and started clapping and shouting and laughing...Mr ODN's just looking at me all bewildered!!! I'm soooooooo HAPPY for you honey!!!!!! :gourpwave: :drunk: :benny: :color: :nanana: :rotflmao:

OMG...I want to speak to you!!! Have so many questions....how many cycles of the clomid? How did you find out? What did Mr Ziggy say? How are you feeling? When is your first scan? What did you do when you finally got that BFP on your preg test? (I thought I would cry, but I was so excited, and unbeliveing, and in shock) Where are you living? Are you in your new house? Take it Oz is off the cards? Please get back _ soon...just for us! Oooooohhhhhhh......I'm so excited I could crush a grape!!! :grinning:


Nat, great news about your scan.....baby sounds a little mischevious! It's a shame the sonographer ruined it for you! Google 3D scans in your are and start pricing them up!!! Can't hurt! 8)

Take care girls!!! Will check on later to see if ZIggy has updated again!!! Off to bake chocolate cake!!! xxx

Please make sure you answer all ODN questions as I want to know the full story. Literally feel tears in my eyes. I know you haven't been on much, but if you read the posts you were never out of our thoughts.

ODN - What did you say about one of us getting BFP whilst the other one went into labour...weird :wink: Doesn't that mean you are ready to POP.
