12 to 24 week pregnancy thread

harieta

I really feel for all of you having all sorts of pains
I guess I'm lucky - but touch wood
I miss one thing sice getting pregnant - stretching in the bed in the morning, now it just feels too weird and uncomfortable

reporting back from my visit
We are both fine
Baby-boo is growing although the technician lady and assistant said I have no bump!
They have probably seen million of pregnant women so I might be unusual tiny for my 20 weeks but they said I shouldn't worry, so I try not to
On Thursday flying home for a week, so got my flight socks ready... hopefully my little one won't mind a 3-hour flight

I ordered my pram today so i'll finally have something baby related to play with soon.

I've found the cot I want too just need to save up again. :rotfl:

Once i've got all the bigger items i'll start buying some clothes.

Hi Harieta and welcome!
Same here, I am not massive at 22 weeks but it's starting to change I think ha ha...
I take it you didn't find out the flavour at the scan? Well done for holding out!
Where is home? Hope your flight is ok x

Hi BCS oooh what pram did you get?
We got our cot from freecycle so I just need to get the mattress ordered at some point. What cot are you lusting after then?
On the weekend we went to Asda and got a Tigger pyjama set (£4) for bubs and also a t-shirt that says I love my Mummy (£2) -couldn't resist. Also a long sleeve tshort from Next that says Handsome Like My Daddy ;o)

I got this pram in the red colour shown as red is my favourite colour, tbh I wish they didn't give you so many choices as it has taken me days to make my mind up. :rotfl:

This is the cot I like.

I've not seen any really nice clothes although tbh i've only been looking in Tesco's as i'm trying to restrain myself.

I don't a clue about prams, I tried reading some posts on MSE but there were so many opinions I'm bamboozled. There's a mamas and papas not too far from where I live so hoping to take a look at the weekend although I'm not really sure what I should be looking for.

Tell me about it Bella! Though we did look at one in Monthercare (own brand) and it was humungous & stupidly heavy so we've narrowed it down to light (although expensive) versions - Mama's & Papa's Sola, Bugaboo Cameleon (I loved my friends I tried last weekend) and the iCandy Cherry - all have a 'carrycot' as well as a rear & forward facing pushchair & can fit a car seat with adaptors (though have been told babies shouldn't be in a car seat for more than 3 hours at a time so pointless for days out/shopping!)

Will probably buy from eBay as they are very expensive but we'll be going to the Baby SHow at the NEC is May to look them over for offers

babies shouldn't be in car seats for more than about 45 minutes at a time!!!!

Skint_Catt

Ah well, was given wrong info then! It's still put me off the idea of buying a travel system though - seems a bit pointless!

I can't find the link to the info.. it was one of the mums on the parents thread who mentioned it to me I thought it was about 2 hours but she said not.. I can't remember which mum it was.. i think she is mainly on the fb group now though..
