You just reminded me Glam... Dr yesterday told me the heartbeat was about 160bpm... First time I've been told... Midwife never says... So does that indicate blue of pink? lol

Hello

How is everyone?!

Still feeling sick and dizzy but the pains have stopped for a moment. Also i now have a horrid taste in my mouth and too much saliva <???> .... sorry if that is tmi

is that just me?

Metallic taste is normal - I also feel thristy and my mouth is always dry. Don't worry that's not TMI - if I was to say that I am constantly leaking like a tap now that would be TMI :rotfl:

ICKLE - wow thanks for pic! You look great. MW just confirmed that the area above my uterus is just my old muffin top - that's probably why I look more than 18w!!!!

So far, comments on my Facebook "who hid the space hopper" (hubby) and "fat bird" (best man) and "god, you are huge"!

Luckily I don't take things personally!

Wow, you look amazing! :T

Doesn't indicate sex unfortunately!

Should range between 140 and 160 I think, if u get stressed or upset it drops but if you are happy or laughing it gets higher.
You must have been in a good mood! I'm at work so a bit stressed but not anywhere near as much as I used to be.

Hey, thought u was a 'surprise' girl?!! You shouldn't be guessing

6 sleeps til my next scan :j

I was in a good mood... I had a nice Dr... And I am a surprise girl... Which means I can play at guessing because we don't know

Do u have any ideas at all what it could be?

I don't, I have no idea either way - no feelings or anything. I think that's partly why I want to find out because it means I get a little bit of information about my baby now and then tons when he/she is born.

Whoever mentioned the skin to skin contact with OH - thanks!
It was great and he really enjoyed it being so close to me and Bean. I was kinda hoping he/she might give a little kick but not yet.

Thanks guys, feel like I have a huge ball inside me!

Re skin to skin contact - hubby trimmed his chest last night. We have put in birth plan that if I am in no fit state that skin to skin contact must happen immediately with daddy.

Someone mentioned that they have lots of naked cuddles with OH so that he feels part of bubba more, this is what I meant rather than skin to skin contact after birth. I told OH I wanted him to feel my bump close against him - I'm trying to make it more OUR pregnancy IYSWIM.

When I mentioned him doing skin to skin after birth if I can't he said 'Eurgh they better wash it first' - hello that's not the point!

He's actually being really involved which I love but everytime I mention nursery he says no!

We are deciding tonight if we are going to get the half price nursery set from Argos as I think it's a great deal.
