    im now twelve weeks so can join in lol

    pookielou its never too early ive started looking at my maternity leave but i just dont understand it and knew i wouldnt thats why ive started early lol i know when im allowed to take it etc i can work up until the day before im due but i run a kitchen in a school so this is not likely due to health and safey. im hoping to work the first week back in september then at least i get more time off after (i due the 29th sep) i really wantto do thefirst week as my edest son starts there in the sep and i want to see him settled in.
    im getting confused though with the payments (doesnt take make imuch i admit im scatty )
    now proud mum to 3 handsome boys :j latest one born 10/10/11:j

    Hi Skintcatt welcome over! Have you had your first scan yet?

    Yes last Thursday. Giblet was head down, bum up fast asleep so didn't see him move - am so desperate to feel him move now - I'm so impatient!

    Oh! I can't wait that long, lol! Though we have got a holiday coming up between my 16 wk app & my 20wk scan so hope that will go fast! Sods law Giblet will sleep for the next six months & not at all when he's born! Lol

    Hi mirrorimage and skint Catt :wave:

    Skint_Catt - I'm 15+4 with my first and haven't felt any movement yet. Heard heartbeat yesterday at the midwife but went on my own so now looking at dopplers so husband can hear too.

    Thanks twi1ight - I'm looking at dopplers too - didn't hear the heartbeat at my 12 wk scan just saw it fluttering & so desperate to hear something! I think because he was fast asleep at the scan I'm scared he'll never move :o

    I must confess I barely drink water at all. I know it's bad but I forget I think I'm going to have to make a chart and tick a glass off when I've drunk. And if it's on the back of my door I can't not see it!!!

    Right I'm going to go to the toilet again, these days ita like the lottery I'm so happy when I score bahaha

    Me :) Not as tired as I was in the first few months of pregnancy but for the last week or so I have been shattered. I had plans to pop out today and enjoy the sun , but changed my mind, I could just go to sleep:o
