    At least they serve the country for their benefits unlike you .I find it laughable that someone on benefits continually adding to their brood can talk about others being a drain on the country's finances.

    I take it you wont claim child benefit???
    i came into the world with nothing,and guess what? i still have it!!!:p

    Of course I will, it's a universal benefit claimed in the main by those that work. That's slightly different from having 11 children
    and living on the state.

    still a benefit, who knows where you will be in a few years eh!! for all you know you may be a single parent in a few years! so you wont claim benefits EVER!

    think you need to wake up smell the coffee, people are on benefits for lots of different reasons, or would you rather we starve and go back to the workhouse!

    Of course it's possible and if needed I would claim benefits. However I don't intend to have 11 children for the state to keep and neither in that situation would I make remarks on a website about others being a drain on the economy. It's the hypocrisy which annoys me.

    Ladies can you take it elsewhere, neither of you are 12-20 weeks pregnant and your topic isn't really relevant to this thread. If you want a debate create your own thread and don't bring this one down, thanks!

    Just had my 16w MW appointment, baby kept moving away from the doppler so we only heard about 10s of a strong heartbeat :) She was amazed that my stomach's still flat, I wish it was more bump like :(

    i think the phrase we're all looking for is...anyway....

    Kerri hope you and your OH get sorted soon, sounds like he's picking fights to me, maybe he has something on his mind?
    Always find it strange when people are so adamant that you won't feel movement til such a time - how do they know for sure? unless you have an ultrasound at the time you think you feel it they've no idea if it correlates to baby movements

    Really a bit sick of the coverage of the Royal Baby now. this morning on the radio they had a whole segment on who had sent congratulations messages. i mean honestly, who isn't going to send congratulations messages? it's not news. it'd be news if it was 'President of South Africa says he bets the baby is well ugly'
    Apparently the Prime Minister of Canada said the birth symbolised the unity between their country and ours. how, exactly? it's not a baby moose! lol

    Sooo....

    I like that Zippy. It looks like a good stroller and I love the colour. My P&T's is green but only 'coz it was the cheapest colour! Very MSE ;)

    TL - It's easy to mistake gas, bubbles, wind etc for movements quite early on, although you're right. Whose to say someone is or isn't feeling them! I felt something whilst the woman was doing my 12 week scan (12+3) and I said to her "I felt something then". Both her and my husband then said "That's because it just moved!". I hadnt felt anything before then and didn't for a while after. I hope she is very active the further on we get.

    TL I think the commute to Bristol from Cardiff each day has finally got to him. I'm going to just keep out of his way for the next two weeks until we move.

    Zippy, my friend has that exact same stroller. I'm still completely confused with which one to go for.
