SmlSave MFW diary - where to start?

Courgette

Ooooh, scan date! Loved our scans It also comes at the end of the yucky first trimester so all good. A lovely Cmas pressie too! I found the eating little and often worked well for the sickness too, I wouldn't worry about the weight. I think as long as you're not stuffing down a family sized chocolate bar everyday you'll be fine. I seemed to do nothing but eat with Gherkin and was only 2.5 stone heavier than normal when I was full term and he was over 8lbs of that

Sorry to hear about your friend. Who knows why people behave as they do

24 days till scan Can't wait to see our bean Courgette.

It's almost time to pay the holiday in full :eek: I'll do it next week and then it's bye bye savings.

I've decided to treat myself and get my hair done for DH's Xmas do tonight, after all just imagine what I'll save by not drinking! I was worried that I'd ordered a stilton or brie veggie dish for the meal but thankfully its ricotta so there's no problem.

Then there's a house party Sat and I'm to meet a friend for coffee sometime too. phew

We chose our secret santa for work today. We write down a few things we'd like to give ideas and the budget's £10. I picked someone who wants an M&S voucher and guess who got one for doing surveys :j

Hope everyone has a good weekend.

I hope you enjoyed DH Christmas do last night. I used to be wiped out with tiredness when I was first pregnant and would be in bed by 8 during those early weeks.

Just popping in to say thanks for reminding me about Weezle's site. I have found some recipes for snacks to supplement DH lunch box and a couple of evening meal recipes to try. It has also prompted me to do a full meal plan with breakfast, lunch and dinner and snacks between now and the end of the month, something I never normally do, and I think this will save us a few £ too.:D

Nice to hear you are still doing well, must be strange to have a scan date makes it feel real real I guess. Hope you enjoyed your night out.

I love it when that happens, I have a M&S giftcard and my BIL wants some gloves he has seen in there.

congrats i've been wading through your diary and read about you TTC so I'm so pleased for you.

I was so desperately lonely and unhappy in a new area until I had my girls now I have loads of new friends. Although it can still be a bit cliquey! I thought women in their 20s and 30s wouldn't be - how wrong I was!

:rotfl:

Ooh congratulations, I've just seen your news. I bet you can't wait. I'm pregnant with number 3 and had my 12wk scan on Monday. Your scan will be like a lovely early Christmas present x

Hi everyone, just popping on to say I'm still alive

Had to take the week off work as I've been poorly. DH has been a star and looked after everything. Not been very MS though as he's just been buying what he fancies when the kitchen is stock full of food.

Glad you liked weezle's site Xspencer and youngone.

DH's work do was good fun and so was the house party but I'm certainly not able to do the late nights!

Glad I'm not the only one who does this DH just tutted at me.

Well done for getting through my diary sara, I hope it didn't send you to sleep too much I'm looking forward to meeting other mums-to-be sometime after Xmas.

Hey LittleBit looks like we could both be having June babies!
