    Hi Ladies

    Hope you're all doing ok. I have a quick question as I can't remember from last time. When did your (.)(.) start getting bigger? I seem to remember mine getting really sore and growing pretty much straight away last time, but I'm not really feeling it at the moment :confused:

    I was a 32E before my period was due, and a 34G when it was 3 days late, following my BFP!

    I'm 8 weeks now and just thinking whether I need to be checked again!

    OH keeps switching the trip switch on and off, wally keeps putting us in darkness. Just gone into garage to see what the hell he's doing and he's in there with a torch thingy on a headband on his head like some miner. No hope for this poor child to be normal!!!
    Too many children, too little time!!!
    :p

    My boobs are soooo sore! They ballooned up as soon as I conceived! I must get to a mothercare soon to get measured for some maternity bras as my 34f's are nipping me and giving me the 4 tits look. Not good.
    love my little man he is amazing :j
  • Mine didnt change size at all last time. My back size got bigger as I got bigger and my ribcage expanded but my cup size never changed at all.

    HOWEVER this time they are massive. I am a 36F and they are popping out over the top. Still wearing underwire I wore it all through previous pregnancy with no difficulties as they are too big and painful without. Off to Bravissimo at the end of march to get measured up as my nearest one is Nottingham so hoping they won't change much more before then!

    Shawl (bought that today :D) 2 unisex outfits, bibs
    Big stuff - pram, carseat, crib, moses basket, travel cot, bouncy chair
    Ring Sling, Wrap Sling
    blankets, sheets, sleeping bag

    If you have a girl Sami you will need to be extra careful with the talc. Oh and where did you get your shawl?

    Nah, this baby will be toilet trained from birth! :rotfl:

    I've got one pack of newborn nappies from SIL, her baby has outgrown them already! I need to go to the shop to buy nappies, can't remember which ones it is I like, so need to have a good root through all the types.

    Don't think they did them in small sizes, but which brand had the animal on the front? Cartoon elephant, lion or something else?
    Pampers have animals on them, huggies have winnie the pooh ;)
    I liked huggies newborn best because they seemed to fit "nicer" :confused:
    I can't use pampers active fit (only start at size 3 i think) or the supermarket fake ones coz they give Chris nappy rash.
    I now use Pampers baby dry for Chris and will do the same for bubba as they have just seemed to do the job best

    Its this one from M&S I had a gift card to use and Chris had a shawl that was M&S (although i got it free) but its blue so I wanted a neutral one just in case (and I love it)
