I'm 26 weeks now and I will say the weeing does not get better. It all depends on where baby is lying too though, so if he/she is moving about loads as they do at this stage, you may get a few days of relief at times. I try and go 3 or 4 times before bed, and it seems to be helping a bit. Limiting my liquids about an hour or 2 before bed helps too. I'm maybe only getting up 2 or 3 times in the night, compared to twice an hour in day time and my babys head is wedged into my bladder :eek:

I don't have a drink after 8, and it doesn't help lol.

I was fine in the early weeks, up until about 16 weeks, last 3 weeks have been hell though.

Happydays - ignore him, he WILL go away one day lol.

twigpig - sounds like a plan! if only hey. No working from home for me at all. I am working until 2 weeks before.

Was someone looking at the Tesco Direct cotbeds?

I noticed today that Tesco are doing their Double Trade In thing on club card points until 6th Dec and it includes furniture :beer:

My bladder was terrible from conception till about a week ago. I was up 4 - 5 times a night. Now I am managing 1 - 2 times. Had a lovely sleep last night, managed to go from 10.30 to around 5.30 without having to get up :j

I saw they had the double up on nursery furniture in Tesco too. That is what I was going to do but very kindly MIL has offered to buy it for us so will hold out till jan/feb time.

I used to never get up in the night to go to the loo, and I must admit, I now only get up once every night about 4am. I do occasionally make it through not having to get up at all, so I'm quite lucky there. It's been only the once since getting pregnant. I can't imagine getting up 4/5 times. I'd be crabby all day after such a crappy nights sleep.......

Hi everyone - I would like to join you ladies!! I am 13 weeks pregnant today - i had my scan earlier this week - and it was amazing - it feels so real now and I hope i can relax now and start to enjoy this pregnancy. i had an Ectopic pregnancy last November - so was anxious to get to the 12 week milestone. I have a 9 year old daughter and i told her the news last night - it was a magical moment!!

looking forward to getting to know you all over the next few months!!

Im currently riding out another cold seriously 2 colds in like 6weeks
This one is hurting my throat a lot and feels like the roof of my mouth has lumps up there :S

Im loving that the babycentre emails I get each week pretty much answer every question I have in my head - eg oooh weird stretchy pains mainly on the right.
1 week til 20week scan :j

Honestly dont know where the time has gone only feels like yesterday when I got my bfp on a digital - the none digis well its more real seeing the words dont you think

Was talking to a friend today Phunkles who's little boy is 12 weeks old and was saying I can't believe I'm 6 months already, it feels like yesterday I took that digi and found out. Was also saying to OH today, that because we found out reallly early, teh first 12 weeks, completely dragged and since then it's flew in!

Has anyone bought any maternity clothes for the party season yet? i'm looking for a (CHEAP!) party dress for mine and my husband's work do's and i'm not having any luck at all

phunkles

The first 12 weeks dragged Gilly!I found out really early to. And up til the booking in and then the scan it dragged, a little scare on holiday added to the waiting.
Remember getting the date for 20week scan after 12week scan (actually at 13 weeks) and thinking pah thats agggggges away. Now its right here no idea where the 6weeks have gone :eek:

Wish Id started a pregnancy diary early on because the days are flying by at an alarming rate

So 3 weeks on from the quad test/blood test and Ive heard nothing at all.
