I really wish i'd bought a sling that she can feed in, to leave me hands free - it's incredibly difficult trying to cook/iron/do anything with one hand!

Any sling experts out there? Have I left it too late? How long can they fit comfortably in a sling for - and any recommendations?

dont have any advice, but i wish i could have just one hand free, i have to squash my boob in place and out the way so he can breathe, once he's on thats me unable to change the channel or eat/drink for half a hour :rotfl: anyone know where i can get myself a 3rd hand?

Hello, Newbie to this forum...Well today I received a home :eek: visit today (very novel, but lovely) from my Midwife and then her student Midwife later on...both of them lovely.

I feel positively baffed by all the info:o ....this is my 2nd pregnancy. DD is 4 1/2 years old. The thing is it all feels so foreign, I can't remember anything and my dates are a tad confusing too. Today I'm either 12 weeks or 8 weeks (period was very light, then no period)

So they have booked me a scan for next Tuesday, very excited about that, bar the pains I'm feeling.
Can anyone help...My tummy just aches, it's been like it on and off for the last few days, but today wow...all day. Everythings tight, so I have my vest top up high and my jog pants down low..:D

They have told me it's my body stretching....It never stretched like this before.

Thanks
Angel

P.s some of you will know from my previous posts - My sister is pregnant too...just thought I'd add that too

hello, welcome!! if its stretching pains hopefully you're 12 weeks instead of 8! they do say you tend to stretch more in a 2nd PG. good luck anyway!

Thanks Emlou....Where on earth am I going to stretch to??? I got lovely n big last time.....but then I was addicted to Twixs then.....hmmm
This time round....nothing tastes right, except ice poles! I have a very sore throat too...boo not having a good time!

I cant wait for my scans, teehee

But i've heard that the print off has gone up to £4! I knows it only £4 but to get a few (which i was going to for grandparents) would cost alot!

Might just get one and scan it and re print myself

xx

I am planning on just getting the one and taking a photo or scanning it in then I can mail/print them off for people:money:

:rotfl: i nearly did smother poor seth on the first night at home, i heard lots of snuffling and a squinny and when i moved the boob he'd gone all red in the face poor little man! they've got even bigger since and now i have to squash them a bit and hold them out the way of his nose but i accidently squirted him in the eye earlier with a over zealous squash!!!:eek:

EA they will only weigh you once unless you ask to be weighed I can see in ur pic you ain't a big girl so they won't be bothered its only if you're 'fat' at the start that they watch ur weight
here's that calculator for you http://www.babycentre.co.uk/tools/weightgain/

Ooh, I just did this, I will apparently put on 1 st 1 lb - 1st 11 lb
