    Congratulations!!!!! :j


    Foam bath support. Used them for both DS1 and DS2. You have to squeeze them out in the water first or they float, but it does make baby feel nice and secure (and softer than a bath mat on their bums).

    Ender, medically pregnancy is 38 weeks (from conception to birth), but they add on the 2 weeks from the date of last menstrual period to the conception to make it up to 40, simply as it is easier to work out key dates that way.

    Good website for planning ahead to see what gestation she will be when. Hope it makes it clearer!
  • ticklepenny - Dh told me this morning I'd been snoring, so maybe it is a pg thing (am usually a talker!)

    My wife just had her 1st scan at 7 weeks & 2 days (private hospital).

    We could see the tiny little baby (10cm long).
    We could also see the heartbeat.. and the little bag of nutrients next to it.
    It was amazing. They gave us a photo of it to keep :-)

    So now we've seen the heartbeat, does that mean the chance of miscarriage is reduced?

    too early to tell everyone about pregnancy yet?

    Also, what EDD does this mean? The hospital said 7 weeks & 2 days has gone by, but we thought the conception date was 8th march which would make 5 weeks & 2 days.

    Congrats! But just to clarify, the measurement will actually have been 10mm (1cm) long - not 10cm :-)

    Just a quickie - Congrats to SLS - beautiful name, can't wait for the birth story.

    I snore anyway :o and am really bunged up atm AND my gums are bleeding. OH wears ear plugs to bed - I fidget loads at the moment because my left side goes dead after awhile and I don't like lying on my back anymore :confused:

    Think it will only be a matter of time before I get relegated to the spare room!

    Got most of what I wanted done yesterday but sun came out so ended up in the garden again!

    17 weeks today :T
    A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea

    Where does the time go? :think:
