thankyou! Glad I'm not the only one! I was wearing a size eight before, and I've been in maternity clothes since week 6.

Thanks for replying :-)

This is my bump pic at week 10! You are definitely not alone...

I like the name Erin for a girl as well, and Felix, Roman, Sonny for a boy... its so hard think we'll ait until sprogs out, I want it to be a surprise for everyone inc us

Erin thats another one we have. See its a huge list for a girl.

Oh has just text me, says he is planning on doing the nursery next week.
That means painting walls and woodwork, fitting blind and curtain rail. Going to Ikea to get draws and bulding them. After clearing out all the carp. He only got out of hospital yesterday, just hope he is up to it. Last time he tried to make a start on it he fell down the stairs and broke one of the spindles on the bannister because he exhausted himself moving a few boxes. He has said one of his mates who had been made redundant will help. So glad they are doing it whilst i'm at work and out the way, can't stand being there when any DIY involved, can't take listening to the f'ing and blinding. Think he wants it done, incase he gets ill again. I keep telling him he doesn't have to rush, baby will be in our room, in moses basket for a good few months. But he won't listen, think its his nesting instincts.

wm - okay I have a bit weird taste, but maybe some of these will be useful:

Lane, Aidan, Kieran, Cole, Reid, Kyan, Liam, Arion, Kellan, Cole, Conlan, Caelan, Niall

We really like Irish/Celtic names, but I kept out some of the more...unusual...ones, hehe

Aless thanks. Oh likes celtic names too, think he mentioned Kai a few times - But we are just stumped.

My OH is useless with names, one day I will suggest a name and he will say 'no way' then if I say it again a few days later he will say 'that ones ok' and vice versa :mad: So now I'm just picking my own names to surprise him with on the day when hopefully he will be too busy to care.

WM - I tried to ban swearing while doing DIY but it didn't work very well lol.

Hi lister
I was the same size i was 8-10 before i got pregnant and so within a few weeks none of my clothes were fitting. Also my bra size has gone up from c to e and i was trying to squeeze my poor boobies into size c for ages. My oh is so proud of of them like he's made them go that big !!! As for names i love the name Grace for a girl and My oh likes Terry for a boy (Sorry for anyone that likes that name ) But i have put a big line though that one. He tends to like names from the 70's why though i dont know. As i was born but he was not even born then ????

I'm still using elastic bands/hairbands on my work shorts...they seem to work fine.. I was an 8/10 before preggs, still fit in 10 fine esp smocks.. but my body con dresses and playsuits have been banned.. also gone up from 32B to a D cup.. love my boobies even though they leak a bit now ha ha

Oh yeah, Next..we have been to every winter and every summer sale since I was pg with ds 7years ago and have never spent under £200 a time but we never get a VIP sale invitation! No fair! Were going to the York store early Saturday morning. Im hoping to get a few maternity bits,some newborn sleepsuits,some bibs, and next size up clothes for dd and ds. I LOVE the Next sales,always find stuff I want and I just think the clothes are such good quality and Ive often got back most of what Ive paid for them when selling them on Ebay

Well I had just moved up a size 16 (:mad:) right before getting preg, so most of my work clothes are around that size. A few weeks ago I had to start leaving top buttons undone and now I can't do any buttons up at all on work trousers. My jeans still button up fine, though! I'm 16+5 and feel like I'm not showing at all and only 'bump' is tummy fat. Someone off the street would not know I'm pregnant right now & I find that really frustrating!!

Bras (G cup, another :mad:) also don't fit well and going to sort out some new ones ASAP. I'm a bit annoyed that I gained all this weight right BEFORE getting pregnant because now it's going to take forever to get beyond just looking fat and actually looking pregnant .
