    Just realised I'm actually just starting my forth bottle of bio oil so used 3 bottles, same as you Elaine! Was worried I was putting on too much! Hoping these last 3 bottles will last me through the rest of my pregnancy!

    I have the large bottle so we are probably using about the same amount if you add it up which is good thought i wasnt using enough but if i put on anymore i swear i wil be sliding out of bed at night lol :-)

    For any one who has to buy the stuff ive just found this http://www.chemistonline.co.uk/bio-oil-b-4289?gclid=CKPtueOM_aECFVtb4wodlmKxDQ bit od a bargain me thinks :-)

    Cafc sorry to hear your having a rough time still i hope things improve for you. SW is right as well make sure you tell them you want to know what is happening and what it all means Doctors and midwives have a lovely knack of brushing you off unless you stand your ground :-) x

    ((hugs)) CAFC sorry things are not great your end...I think it might be best if you are admitted tbh, sounds like they think it could be pre-eclampsia, with the symptoms you have mentioned...did you tell them about the vision problems you were experiencing?
    Please make sure you keep an eye on baby movements and tell them immediately if you haven't felt baby for a while, or if you even think baby has changed pattern, or if you feel strange in any way...I don't want to scare you so won't go on, but just make sure you are aware of everything...


    Had a late dinner here today, well baby had his as usual at 5pm but the rest of us had ours at 7pm, once he was in bed. We had curry with pappadums and naan and then swiss roll and custard all washed down with a bottle of coke:) We watched Going Postal (from yesterday) while we ate it...the kids were made up, well it is the holidays:)

    Belly baby is giving me very painful low movements today!!!

    :question: Maybe drop this if we choose two other symbols, or just keep it for wanting to know but naughty baby


    :search: This could maybe signify the looking for baby bits at scan?


    :question: Could use this for wanting to stay team yellow


    ?? Maybe bold some of these to signify wanting to know but naughty baby

    I don't know....let me know your opinions and we will modify the list, if enough people want to.....


    I personally quite like this one for wanting to stay yellow:question: and one of these for baby not letting the secret out:exclamati:search:

    nipping out now but i'm happy for everyone to have their say or just leave it as it is!!!

    We're a "wanting to stay yellow" (although I think I saw blue bits on the scan, but we'd said we didn't want to know so she quickly changed the view :))

    Which little icon do you favour for wanting to stay yellow then....blue question mark or yellow exclamation mark...

    There is a yellow question mark, but silly forum just turns it into the blue one when actually posted!!!

    Delain - Glad everything was ok. I'm sure its nothing to worry about, just part of pregnancy. :)

    Budget - Happy team yellow! I've never seen any parts on a scan , yours must of been detailed or maybe its me never noticing. The sonographer said at my 20w scan this time "Its Definately a boy" OH is pleased. I told him it didnt necessary mean he had a big winkie! :rotfl:

    (((hugs))) to kmcke and cafc hope you both feel better soon.

    Just been laughing at watching my belly randomly move (like a muscle spasm) all over today, even DH has seen it move - no recognisable bits yet.

    Not looking forward to work tomorrow, especially the journey on public transport that despite my baby on board badge people still don't offer me a seat I think people must think I've eaten too many pies as I don't have a beachball type bump just more rounded!! I am glad I have a card for the train may get a top like smartie's!!

    Budget re seeing something my DH came in late to the scan and said have we found out the sex as he thought he saw something, so maybe but we had them confirm it as could be something else!!
