    Always - no dieting unless under doctors instructions :)

    Eat healthily and do walking etc - nothing strenuous. Maybe Aquanatal classes - that kinda thing. Don't try and loose loads of weight whilst you're pregnant - it's not good for you or the babby.

    Still, my OH has the plague now and is far worse than I am. He's gone to bed and left his computer open and his Facebook unattended. I'm just wondering what to do to his status...

    Oh before I go and do dinner...

    MW said I have a lovely tummy and gorgeous skin on it! :D Not a stretchmark in sight and only 3 weeks to go! Now if only we can stay that way I'll be chuffed! I know mum never had any but I figured everything else has managed to not go my way this pregnancy surely I'd end up with stretchmarks that would help me blend in a herd of zebras!

    Hi all..

    Just had a quick read through. Off out soon for tea with FIL (MIL is away all week).

    Krystal, my boy bubba's heartbeat was 135bpm on Saturday (26+6). Sonographer said that was perfectly fine and it just slows down to similar to mine by the time he's born.

    LCK73, I had evening nausea from week 8 to week 14, then actual sickness in the mornings from week 14 to week 22. Still get it now (27+4) if I get too hungry / don't eat soon enough after waking up.

    Hope everyone else is okay :)

    I'll be back later xx (PS Not been to the pharmacy - didn't get chance - but not quite so uncomfortable today ;):o)

    You are both indeed very lucky shellsuit and mrstine! I smugly thought I'd escaped during my 1st pregnancy until at 35+ weeks my MW said "Oh my! You have been unlucky with the stretch marks". :eek:

    I never looked down there you see as they were underneath my bump! I was horrified when I got home and had a proper look in the mirror.

    Well we all know they don't really go away - I'm just hoping it all stretched enough the first time that this baby won't need to make any new ones!

    Evening everyone

    Think I have caught up on everything today, you didnt talk very much which helped :rotfl:

    Krystal, I agree that a surprise is the way to go and I called Jasmine 'he' when she was a bump aswell, maybe that explains why she is such a tom-boy now :confused::D
    I have a feeling this one is a boy, but I will be delighted with either :D

    Re morning sickness, I didnt get any, but was nauseus the whole way through untill about 26 - 28 weeks

    And do not get me started on stretch marks .......:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
