normal cot bedding should be fine Kat, as a normal cot is 117x54 as Lilac says, and yours is 125cm x 55cm so very similar! cotbed bedding would be too big.

feel rather talked out today after lots of calls! My mum has worried me when I said my knickers are always wet, think she thinks my waters may be leaking but I'm pretty sure it's just normal! I am going to mention it tomorrow i think. wonder of the dr will want to check me for any signs of labour?

moneysaver, that's a surprise, probably is just anxiety. try having a warm bath and warm milky drink before bed tonight. hope you get some sleep x

well i measured the base (the spring) from side to side and thats the measurements=maybe mine is a cot bed? I know I'll ask my mum and she'll now know? Ohhhhhh im so clueless? should i get cotbed bedding then?

A cot bed takes a mattress sized 70 x 140 so you definately have a regular sized cot, the mattress would have to be a little smaller to fit in anyway, I would buy a regular mattress and sheets

MOTM, they don't tell the gender at the 12 week scan anyway, it's always 20 weeks so I guess probably not

Ah right, we must have been given bad information or misunderstood

We can wait a few more weeks....I think

Thanks

i might be wrong and they might be able to tell before 20 weeks, but definitely not routinley at 12 week scan.

Hi all,

Quick Posting from me, I've been lurking but not so good at keeping the pace with you all!

Congrats on the new arrivals, and hope all is going well for those in labour.

I feel like I'm just getting bigger by the day and I'm only 24weeks, people keep asking how long I have left and when I tell them my due date is jan 7th they look shocked, didn't carry like this last time! Which also leads people to predict that it must be a girl this time! (don't know the flavour!)

Anyway I have just yawned through a whole converstion with DH, who is at work, so I think I should trundle of to bed, work tomorrow.

Oh Chakani - we used to live in Dunton Green, now in Norfolk but I miss the area alot. I do like living here, I just loved the little cottage we rented there so much.

Hello ladies and bumps (and the couple of gents we have)

I haven't read back, it will take me years to catch up!
Just popping in to say I'm afraid I've queue jumped and baby Milo arrived on 10th September. Because of my hypertension he had been compromised and only weighed 4lb 9oz. He was struggling to maintain his blood sugars and spent a week on the neo natal unit but we were allowed home on Saturday.

He had regained his birth weight by day 6 and we're now day 10 and he has put on 1oz so hopefully he'll soon catch up. I have quite a funny birth story so if someone could point me to where to post it I'll write it up.

They can tell sex via amnio earlier than 20 weeks, an if you had had the nuchal and something didn't look quite right you would of been offered an Amnio so maybe thats were the information has got muddled. Private scan places around here wont to sexing until 22+ weeks. I think you can by sexing kits online but not sure how reliable they are or how it would work with twins.

Aww BB he looks like a little doll.

I think we'll wait until approx 20 weeks then. Didn't know their were online kits and think we will avoid and just wait naturally. Thanks
