    See you soon Lozza and Angel xx

    I can't wait until I reach 24 weeks it feels such a worry before then.

    Kerri I'm guessing boy too! At my gender scan it was as Lozza said, 3 clear lines for a girl.

    We've been discussing names, which basically means I suggest something that DH says no to :( today I've had 2 people comment on how noticeable my bump is, it's actually the first time I'm very surprised!

    Least you're all making me feel better about names, Dh seems to be intent on us getting a massive list of names to choose from, while I think we've got a few favourite names so we should go with our gut and choose from them.

    We have still not even discussed names.. I'm 33 weeks nearly and we have literally not even suggested a single one.

    We have a girls name which I doubt will change and I absolutely love it so I'm happy OH agrees! We were well and truly stuck for boys names so its quite fortunate we've ended up pink.

    OH registered DS as I was still in hospital and I was really worried he was going to put 'Ronald' in there somewhere! No offence intended to anyone if they like it, but it is not my cup of tea at all. Fortunately he didn't and DS has a first name and 2 middle names, all of which I LOVE.

    16 weeks today and I feel like time is really really dragging. I'm half way when I get to 18+4 but everything seems to be moving very slowly :( I hope it starts moving a bit quicker come September when my Uni course starts! Only 5 weeks of work left...yipee!!

    You'll soon be wanting time to slow down I think the first few months drag but then I swear time speeds up!

    I'm off to the main pregnancy thread now - see you all there soon :D

    Hi all, hope you've all been enjoying the sunshine :T All this talk of names is pretty scary, we haven't really thought too much but I guess the list will be similar to when we had DD in 2011. We knew we were having a girl but I was convinced we'd be in the 2% where they got the gender wrong, so we picked out boys and girls names!

    Loving the 20 week scan news, isn't the difference amazing from the 12 weeks?!

    Just a quick head's up, too, that Tiffany Rose have a really good sale on at the moment. By "really good" I guess I mean "slightly less eye wateringly expensive price tags, but still bl*ody pricey and best make me feel like a princess" ... But we have a wedding to go to the day before my birthday so I'm thinking I can call it a birthday treat. ;)

    Hi all

    I've been in hospital following a bleed, all is ok now and baby's heartbeat/ movement/ etc is all good but I will have a follow up scan to check she's still ok in the week. Those of you who are rhesus negative please be very careful and phone a MW if you even have a drop of blood xx

    Names are v difficult, it has to be something that'll grow with your baby through their whole life and you can imagine screaming out at Tescos lol. I love our sons name, it so suits him. DH chose it but its exactly what I wanted: simple but slightly unusual.

    Hello lovelies, hope you're all well and enjoying this amazing weather. I've not been on here much because I've been too busy being a sulky hormonal lady who is spending lots of money to cheer myself up :eek:

    I need to get back to sorting the house out and decluttering next week though - there was no point buying lots of 'baby things' if baby doesn't have a room to put them in :rotfl:

    ETA: Glad everything appears to be well Scarlet and hope things continue to improve - it must have been very scary :grouphug:

    Bought our first baby item today :D and looked at prams too :shocked: :p found one we both liked too, which was just bizarre, feels too early to do anything but look at things like that :o Also went to m+s for a bra fitting and was very disappointed, so I won't bother there again :cool:

    Glad you've checked in amyloofoo, was wondering where you'd disappeared to ;) I've been a hormonal mess too, don't worry, you're not alone ;)
