I have decided to ask dp to get my hospital bag out of the loft tonight, I still have to buy things to go in there but at least I can keep it in my room and pack it over the next few weeks.

Hi hon, welcome to the board. Sorry you are feeling poorly.

If it makes you feel better I had the !!!!!! a lot at the beginning and then had them and sickness for 4 days last week. The midwife checked me over and sent me to the docs as all was well antenatally.

Hope you start to feel better soon.

Thanks, I've been to the doctors before and he reckons I've got IBS, which I don't think I have. It just really gets you down after while, doesn't help that my 2.5 year old daughter STILL won't let me go to the loo on my own and gets upset if I try and sneak up there :rotfl: (she's very much at the tantrum stage). Work aren't that supportive either, so at the moment thinking about not going back there after my maternity leave, that's if they don't sack me before I get to that stage because of my sickness!:(

Milo reminds me of the purple one in Tweenies

S isn't too bad to have to work with, you just need to avoid S and Y as first names - my surname begins with P so it's quite difficult avoiding combinations which create words. Did have a suggestion of Michael Edward Ewan P - nickname Meep

I think you're right about it being difficult to choose, the poor kid has to live with the name for quite some time even if they did eventually decide to change it. I'm quite torn as I don't want a name which is really common as I grew up with multiple Jennys and Davids in my class and really liked being the only one with my name. But I also don't want to stigmatise the kid by giving him something bizzare.
But we'll work it out, even if the name changes all the way upto registering the birth

My mum's advice is to have at least two different sets of names and not have your heart set on one in particular as there's a chance that when you set your eyes on baby for the first time you'll decide that he's definitely not a Marmaduke and looks much more like a Thomas.

Sweet dreams Gilly

Well i've managed to put together the bright starts playmat we were handed down by friends. Its the one with all the sides, so took me a while to figure it out, but i did!! Have put all the toys on that will entertain baby and keep him amused. Actually had fun picking which ones to hang on the bars haha.

My hospital bag keeps getting bigger and bigger as I keep adding stuff to it. I compared mine to the girls on OBEM, mine seems huge! As does baby's. Oh well, better safe than sorry haha

Gilly - hope you get some rest tonight!

As usual i havent a clue who has posted what...so here goes....

Whoever has the S**s, i had it the whole 9 months with DD3, and have been the total opposite this time! Apparently it can be caused by hormones ( i also get like it with the monthlys!)

Redhead, i ate a whole packet of shortbread fingers whilst in bed watching OBEM last night :rotfl:

Babys boys names.....MIL had a greyhound called Milo when i first met DH, she now has a Border collie called Alfie, and i love the name Alfie for a boy My Nan had a dog called Charlie, so thats out too! We have quite a few names on our boys list..... Flynn, Daniel, Parker, Chace, Nate, Jaxon, Ethan, Mason, Dexter, Lennon ( that was going to be DD3 name if a girl!) and my all time favourite but not going to happen....Hayden. Can have that as our surname is Hayman......knew i shoulda never got married, the surname Brown had its advantages :rotfl: . Those names are a combo of the ones DH and I both liked, some of his i`m not so keen on.

Whoever likes Lily, nice choice, DD3 is called that, and Lovecrafting has a Lilly too We spelt ours the same as the flower tho

Feeling really sick this evening, DH seems to be hoping its labour signs, not blooming likely, more like a bug from one of the kids xx

With DD3 mine was really small compared to the first 2, i wanted in and out....however ended up in there for 5 days and ran out of everything by day 2 haha! So i`m going in extra prepared this time x

Serendisglair - welcome although officially I have to lurk now as I am not pregnant but can't stop reading the thread and occasionally rambling. It's great that your sister and you will have babies so close in age.

Gilly!!!! Who knows when bubs is coming but your body is up to stuff so hopefully soon. As you know mine started with pains in the evening only sat sun but then really kicked off Monday 7 pm ish and then Scott was born tuesday afternoon. I know it's not fun being in pain but if it comes to it there is always epidural as long as decision made at correct time. I found that having warm showers helped with the pains at home. T

Hello all hugs to the fed up boldies xxxx

According to hubby Scott can now projectile poo :eek:

I know he likes Rowan, which I do like but my Mum isn't keen - I do wish people would just lie if they dont like the name you pick, I was fine about Rowan till her reaction now I'm not sure!!

That's why you shouldn't discuss name choices with anyone but your OH!

I know my family wouldn't be shy about making their opinions known, so I'm having fun frustrating them by refusing to discuss names with them.

(My mum tries to get around this by just announcing - randomly - "ridiculous" or "awful" names that she's heard, just in case we're considering any of them!) :rotfl:
