    Hugs Jenjade, sorry I have no advice as I have no idea but am sure someone more experienced than me will come along shortly!

    With regards to the conversation about how long people have been together, OH and I will have been together for 3 years when baby arrives, and married for 1 year, so similar to other people. We got engaged after 16 months together, then married 9 months after that. Other long-term relationships I've had have lasted 2 years approx without even a hint of an engagement ring so I guess when it's right, it's right :D

    It's funny you are talking about what to do with the baby when you want a shower or to go for a wee... My friend who had her baby 5 weeks ago brought her into work today for the first time so we were stood around talking, and my other friend who has an 18 month old says she can't go for a wee now without her daughter coming with her! And the friend with the new baby says she's now mastered the 2-minute shower!

    Jenjade contact your midwife. It's entirely possible your waters have broken. It's always better to be safe than sorry!
    Usually scanners at 3D clinics will not give medical advice, and are purely there to show you the baby (they may not be medically trained to identify more than body bits. I know my sonographer at my 3D scan wasn't trained in anything other than imagery)

    3 years at the end of March for me and OH and no mention of maarriage here either :eek:

    Jenjade it sounds like just normal excess moisture caused by hormones.. some people have more than others.. if it was waters breaking you would know.. unless it was accompanied by bleeding in which case the blood is diluted and fluid is not noticed. Of course getting checked is better than being sorry .. :)

    It's a leap year coming up, maybe we need to take the bull by the horns ;)


    I actually think he was planning on popping the question, he'd saved up a fair bit of money which I assume was for a ring and to start saving for a wedding, but then I found out I was pregnant and that money is for other things, got a feeling that will be the case for a longgg time now :o I'd happily go down to the register office in my jeans and hoody, but I know it's not what he wants.

    LMAO.. Hed say no.. I am certain of it.. but then I would if he asked me.. it would be nice to be asked though.. stupid as that sounds.. if only because it would mean he did actually want to be with me rather than .. the person I think he would rather be with but doesnt want him :(

    Congrats to Mirror and Flower

    Can't remember who was asking about maternity bras but I get mine from M&S. They always measure me and then bring me a selection to try. Then they tighten all the straps and make sure there is still room to grow. Always had good service.

    I have been with DH for 9 years, married for 5. It doesn't seem that long though!
