Hello Sugar!:hello: Can't believe you've lurked for so long - pull up a seat and get comfy

poptarts! _pale_

Off the Trafford Centre tonight, so hubby can buy by birthday pressie. I want a new handbag. I think I might have to try and get another bra fitting - oops and I need more tops. To be far - I am still wearing most of my looser, pre-preg size 8 tops, but they are beginning to ride up and my choice is becoming very limited. I think I'm gonna look for non-maternity, but longer tops.

ooh not at the traff but I recommend Sainsbury's TU t-shirts
I got a bright pink one on sat its quite long (if I was a hussy I could wear it as a dress:p)and in my usual sz12 with room for my already big bump to expand further, it was 4 or 5 £ its some new fabric called modal very nice n soft comes in bright pink, black, white and I think there was a blue n white patterned one too

right off to morribobs and then to collect kissifer from his Grandma

Sami, is that the paper with the beige to a gold to a warm chocolate colour squares? I looked at that for our hall.

What notes?

Is that something we will be given by the mid-wife? We haven't seen the mid-wife yet, first appointment next week.

I like the idea of a surprise, but from a practical viewpoint, it means we would have to only choose one name (which is hard enough) rather than two different names.

Yes, the midwife should give your partner hand held notes when she sees her next week if thats the booking in appointment? In my area we see a MW at the Dr's surgery for an initial chat and are then referred on to the hospital where the 12w scan and booking in appointment (bloods, etc) are combined. But we have had all sorts of variations on this thread!

But you have until the 20w scan (if your PCT allows) to decide on whether to find out the sex so lots of time for discussions .

Sami - I like - will you pick out one of the colours from the patterny bit to paint the other wall?

yeah I think so- the pattern is for squares going from a beigey colour and getting darker to a chocolate so should be able to find one to match, just hope it turns out ok :undecided
nothing is ever easy in this house!

Hello! Thought I'd pop in and introduce myself - I'm around 8 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I'm anxiously waiting for a midwife to get in touch to arrange my booking in appointment! I think it will feel more 'real' after than and my first scan!

Looking forward to getting to know everyone and picking up some useful tips. I have no symptoms as yet, felt a little nausea yesterday but that's about it.

Congrats, gemmagem and welcome to the thread!

I am so not looking at your comp wins and feeling very envious - honest!

Thank you! I got a little obsessed with entering comps last year and it definitely paid off! I haven't entered any for months though now - best get entering the baby ones now eh!
