    I'm glad :) you must have been dehydrated last week. Glad she could find heartbeat, mines wouldn't stop moving for long enough for her to find it, every time she had it, she'd say "Oh he's moved again"

    I've had no midwife appointments, all my contact is with my GP, it's so weird here!

    I have the GTT test and midwife next week. 2 appointments in the same week might put me over the edge, lol

    Monday for the GTT - Not looking forward to that one bit! :(

    Toniq - I know it must be really hard to accept that everything's going well, but it is :). We were due to see a fertility doc a few days after we got our BFP and still went to see him. He told us that anything that was happening before our BFP is all irrelevant now. We're pregnant and have as much chance as anyone in everything going to plan. It doesn't matter how you got here, you're here and your little baby is going to be perfect :)

    How often are you all seeing the midwife? My GP is happy to see me once a month until I'm 30 weeks. Got the consultant once a month too, although that's only for another 2 months.

    I had the booking in at 10 weeks, then another at 18 weeks (though should have been 16). One at 25 weeks - next week(!), then there will be one at 28 weeks, I think it's every 3 weeks after that until you're almost due, then it's weekly. It says in my big record book that they gave me at booking in, but I don't have that with me :) I'm also seeing the hospital midwife at every scan (so 13 weeks, 20 weeks, 23 weeks) and at the other tests - GTT at 26 weeks, RH neg injection at 28 weeks. Phew. Am getting bored of doing urine samples already ;)

    Dh having a job interview at the moment, fingers crossed. He's got another interview on Friday which would mean him finishing at 11pm, so I'm hoping he gets this one and not the one on Friday, as I'd barely see him during the week. Still, when baby arrives it probably wouldn't be worth him working for minimum wage anyway :)

    Bluebell - Hope the interview for your OH goes well :)

    I bought some more wipes today and couldn't help but work out what I've spent so far on nappies and wipes.
    27 huggies newborn nappies x2
    64 pampers wipes x3
    64 Huggies Pure wipes x7
    £6.66

    Not too bad at all. I still have some £2 off vouchers for huggies nappies but not sure how many to buy in newborn size and the vouchers are good til end of 2012. Waiting for Sainsbury's baby club sending me my pampers voucher for their baby club, so will prob end up with 4 packs to get started. How many nappies and wipes is everyone stocking up on?

    PS - That means I already have 640 baby wipes, not to mention the little freebie packs :rotfl:

    I have about 400 newborn nappies, stocked up on the asda ones, 44 for a pound and also got a couple of packs of Huggies ones. Wipes, I always have about 300 in the house for DS and DSD, but intend on using cotton wool and water for baby like i did with DS. Will go onto wipes when they are coming up to a year old I think.

    Not seeing midwife til 28 weeks now. GP at 24 weeks. Consultant on friday. Thats it I think. Kind of sad that there's no more scans now. Still unsure about getting a 4d one. I think if we couldn't find out the sex yesterday,i'd be seriously tempted. At the mo,i'm content knowing baby is happy and healthy and we have a little princess. I want to wait now to see her face when she's born. Another part of me finds the 4d scans a little....creepy. No offence to anyone who wants it done,just how I feel......:)
