Hi i did post but for some reason its not showing up

Anyway, i just got back from lunch. I went to H&M to look at maternity clothes
Also went to MKone as they have a sale and i'll need some strecthy summer clothes. I found nothing

Either i've put on a load of weight in a week or this baby is huge lol. Im only 5 weeks, but find it far more comfy to have the button of my jeans undone haha! x

ooh EA I hate H&M maternity!! can you fit in them?? I'm about 2 foot too short for them :rotfl:
Its common to be bloated in the 1st trimester so some ladies find they look very preg for a month or 2 and then it goes again for a bit.

Hi EA

I think it'll be water retention and bloating.. A few of us have felt massive for the first few weeks, then normal again around 12-14wks then start getting a proper bump

You were talking about work trousers earlier - I've got black ones from Topshop (£28 I think) with the adjustable elastic and buttons in the waistband. Been wearing them since 16wks I think but for ages before then I was undoing the buttons everytime I sat down on my old ones. Wish I'd bought them earlier! You could get those, and change the amount of elastic every day if you like

.. How rude of ur OH!! I bet he wants the nudge nudge ;) early night too, he'll be all lovely later maybe give you a bit of a back/neck rub.. thats what mine would do - cheeky swine!

It's my knees which are in need of a rub right now (knee massage?! ).. I'm gonna have to work on that - not on my knees much usually (*ahem*), but am envisaging nappy changes on the living room floor and me not being able to get back up again!

Sami, what does the scan package include? Are you having the 4d too, or just sticking to the 2d?

Evansangel

Sami_Bee - Well im not to sure, i'll prob be to tall for their clothes lol. Im 5'8. The clothes in the sales were either 4 sizes to big or 4 sizes to small haha.

And Elle_gee - im seriously considering getting some maternity trousers for work

xx lol

Oooh me and OH are having a 4d scan

Its £190 and you get 45 mins scanning in 4d, an A4 3d pic and 3 A5 3d pics.
A 15 min DVD in 3d or 4d i cant remeber and the sexxing.
And for an extra £20 you get all of the pics taken on a disc

Just got to wait 19 weeks for it now lol xx

elle_gee

Oh, so you'll be 24wks then - I'm 24wks tomorrow It goes really quick, honestly! Doesn't feel like two minutes since I was 12wk!

My 4d scan is on 18th April - three weeks to go £150 for 6 colour and 4 b/w pictures, plus all photos on CD and a DVD (don't know how long though). Plus sexing which is why OH wants the scan - the NHS guy saying he was 95% sure it was a boy isn't quite enough for OH :rolleyes: (he was convinced it'd be a girl).

OH is nagging me to take another bump pic. Might put it up later. He's finding it hilarious that my belly button is changing!

Right, off to scour the spare room for more clothes to shrink! TTFN xx

Evansangel

I hope it goes quick, me and OH cant wait for the baby to arrive lol.

I'm fine!

Very quick stop at DAU - blood pressure taken three times and all were fine. Trace went really well, he was well behaved for once! Urine is fine. Back on Tuesday, but everything looks good, she said chances are it'll all be alright and he'll just come when he is ready. Mentioned how I'm feeling, just side effects of the medication, and water retention, nothing to worry about.

Nice and relieved!
