    Hi rakkibeth. What nice neighbours you having giving you a pram. I find that people are very generous with baby stuff.

    Gin - you have a lot of determination. Not sure I could have put up a wardrobe at 28 weeks. Mind you at 36 weeks I now struggle to open mine. And as for fitting into anything in it well don't get me started one that one!!

    Elelyn - sorry for mentioning the toffee but it is lush. I'll probably have a black mouth for the next few days with overconsumption.

  • Hi - I'm Jo, 28 weeks pregnant with 1st baby. We thought we couldn't conceive after 5 years trying and one failed IVF, then I fell pregnant naturally!

    Looking forward to participating in the preggers forum :)

    Afternoon all :)

    This thread always makes me hungry!! That toffee sounds yum!

    I ve been finding people very generous with baby stuff too. its lovely and I will do the same for others when we no longer need our bits. I guess its like baby karma!

    One more week left at work for me! Woohoo! although got Friday & Monday off to go to a friends wedding - which is a 500 mile round trip!! Eek! Hoping my ankles dont swell up on the way. Im considering wearing flight socks but not sure if that will help on a long car journy. Any other ideas anyone?

    Had my 36 week check this morning (I am 36 +4) and baby is 2/5 engaged so that is good news. Good little Pip seems to be going in the right direction!! Lets hope it continues!

    Looks like we lost some bits of the list, so repeated it. I have tried adding numbers, will see if it works and what you think! I am still down in 40-ies, so not scary for me yet!

    Hello all! Haven't been on here for a while, I am sure i missed lots of babies and interesting topics!

    I am keeping fine (just could really do with a nap now!!!!), and had my 28 week scan and appointment this morning. Both twins are growing well, right on average, and estimated weights are 1.2kg each. The midwife took bloods to check my iron again, no GTT for me as I am not in the risk group, according to them. Next scan and appointment - in 4 weeks. They were happy with everything, and just told me to keep doing whatever I am doing. I wish I knew what it was!

    And the best thing - only 4 working days after today left for me. Can't wait to finish and jsut lazy on the sofa for a bit...

    Hi gin, glad your ok and twins are growing nicely :T

  • Hi weekendpants and welcome.
    What a lovely surprise that must have been to conceive naturally after such a long road. Do you know what flavour the baby is?

    Yes it was a big surprise and a very happy one! Didn't really believe it was true until we saw the little chap on the 12 week scan. We are having a boy - can't wait to cuddle him!
