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

wouldn't be a woman if that wasn't the case It's like when mines is eating something I always say "why didn't you offer me a bite/piece" then when he says "do you want some?" It's always NO!

I think we can live our lives on what if's, he's with you at this moment and you're the mother of his children, we can't always predict what the future will bring, so enjoy what we have now

(that actually sounds really morbid and crap but now how it's meant to come across)

Blue Monkey I'm 23 weeks and I am hugeee, posted a picture a few days back.

So it is possible but my stomach muscles are crap so I'm assuming that's why.

You're a nice size! I'm not that much bigger at 31 weeks! In fact just bumped into a friend (pardon the pun) who's just 20 weeks and I'm not that much bigger than her either!

Getting really para that I'm too small... though baby wriggles around LOADS, so unless the thudding is him/her trying to get my attention to tell me something's wrong, I guess I'll wait to see what the midwife says on Friday...

Will try to figure out how to post some pics later and you can all let me know what you think of my size.. WW - would be great to see you given we're due at the same time (even though I realise everyone is different)

God, please don't post a picture, I feel like a whale as it is One of my close friends was just a bit bigger than my picture at full term and was terrified by midwives and doctors telling her, she was having a 3lber etc and he was 6lb odds, so I wouldn't worry too much. They eventually came to the conclusion she didn't have much fluid surrounding baby.

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 ..

no bloody, just a damp patch on the bed. I def knew when waters broke with DD1 but then it was her due date so I guess there was a lot of fluid.

Ok, first time I've ever posted pics on here so not sure if this is right... Here's me at 15, 21, 23 and 31 weeks...

Mirror he is gorgeous. Samuel was my first choice name but baby just didn't look like a samuel
He has so much hair! He looks like he is a few months old already :rotfl:
Hope you have recovered from the dramatic birth! I love reading birth stories, they are all so different. Added my own experience beneath yours. I think I was VERY lucky with my hospital experience. Everyone so nice and lovely facilities.

Congratulations flower! Another big baby!! And another lovely name!

On the topic of OH/DH's, i met DH just over 4 years ago when he saw me at a station and asked me for dinner. Went back to his house the next day to meet his cats, and after that only slept at my place 5 nights in the 2 years before i gave up my flat! Got married March last year, once his absolute came through, started preparing to TTC last October, started TTC April this year, and fell pg first month!

He is in quite good books, as he just went for a shop at Sainsburys and brought me a tub of B & J's Cookie Dough which i just got stuck into. Mmmmmm

I don't know how to post pics up, I could learn but it sounds complicated and hard work Besides I look like a whale. MW said at my 28 week appointment that I was measuring 2 1/2 weeks ahead, but that this wasn't a worry due to growth spurts. Everyone keeps telling me that I look like I am due this week :eek: Even my mam has said I am bigger than both my sisters were at 9 months :eek::eek::eek: I've got MW appointment tomorrow so we shall see what I measure then.

We went to a Labour and Birth class at our hospital today and I found it really informative. We've got 2 more classes to do - breast feeding and parenting.

Baby has been very very active today and has hardly stopped squirming around in there.

Jen I think you should contact your hospital just to be on the safe side. I know it's a pain to go in and be monitored, but better safe than sorry!

Upload the pics to an online album ( picassa, flickr etc). Click on the pic in the album, copy the link location (should begin http and end .jpg)

Come back to MSE, click on the yellowish icon of a square, with 2 mountains and sun. Paste the link into the window.
Et voila!
