Welcome Maureen

Congrats Meltdownpot

Ohhhh god I am getting too close to the top of that list lol

Awww Twinkles (((hugs))) I know exactly what you mean xxx

Som - Ah cool I hope it works, my only worry is that I seem to have spots now on my hips, my legs (where bikini line is) and my bump/stretch marks, I think this is what is itching

Does anyone know of any itch creams that pregnant ladies can have?

Whats everyone using to put used nappies in? I have a nappy bin for the nursery but I want to have changing things downstaris as well

I am not sure Nikkit, sorry

Welcome DP and good luck for tomorrow, you'll love it, I loved seeing bean for the first time

I hope I get these spots sorted, they are driving me mad, I think they are heat spots

OMG did anyone just see the news? A pregnant woman went into a garage asked for the bathroom key and came out a short while later with her baby, she thought the baby was dead but one of the garage attendants took control and managed to get the baby breathing. Mother and baby are both doing well.

MV sorry to hear your not doing so well at the moment as nikkit says try not to worry yourself silly i know its easier said than done but some women do bleed through their pregnancy and have lovely healthy babies i was one of them with no2 i bled pretty much all the way through. I do hope everything goes well for you x

evening all

feeling very satisfied after my dinner, even if jaw is aching a bit..... toothache/jawache/earache has eased off a little, so im hoping it will allow me a good nights sleep as we've got a full on day tomorrow
Scan and midwife at half 10, then got to pack weekend bag, then DH has jsa meeting, and then travelling for 300 miles down south....

On the plus side should be able to pick up my camera charger so can get back on top of my bump pics, and get to see all the baby stuff that is at my mum and dads, and most importantly I get to see my puppy!!!! Never thought I'd miss his snuffling little truffle pig noises as much as I do

Saw some cute pop up laundry baskets in primark and im thinking id like one in babys room but not sure its necessary to have a laundry bin in babys room, but then I think, where else am I gonna put them.... LOL

MV - I understand your panic hun, but like other ladies have said stress isnt going to do you any good.
When I started having panic attacks about this pregnancy (after losing first) I used to make myself lay down, somewhere quiet, and just repeat to myself
"My body was designed to nurture and support you, and provide you with all you need to enter this world. All I am is for you, and I will love you like no other"

Sometimes i'd repeat it like 50 times (ocd) but it would help steady out my breating and chill me out a bit.....maybe it'd help to keep you calm if you have a little positive mantra to say to yourself...

Somnium

DP - welcome to the thread, positive vibages for your scan tomorow x

kindof - hadnt given downstairs changing much thought, will try and take LO up stairs for each change what with us having the dog, I know it will be a pain but think of the calories Ill burn hehe.

Nikkit - yeay for tens machine, remind me did you hire or buy?

Twinkles - boo to your know it all MIL!

Think baby girl has a foot or something jammed under my ribs, tis most uncomfy!

Kindof i used calamine lotion when i had heat rash with my first but that was almost 12yrs ago so not sure if its still recommended and make sure its the oily one so you dont dry your bump out and cause more stretch marks. For the last two weeks i spent most of my time in cool baths to stop the itching it was hell x

Was just wondering if some twingy type feelings in your foof are normal earlier on in pregnancy (im 14 weeks) Have had some funny sensations on a couple of occasions, nothing painful but just wondered why you'd get twinges there at this stage?
