    Glad you're able to eat more claire!

    I was in Tk Maxx today and looking at baby boy outfits, very nearly bought one but reluctantly put it back, still feel like I will jinx something if I buy a baby item!

    Must stop this superstitious thinking!

    I was with a friend and her 7 year old and 4 year old today, the kids were very surprised that I have a baby in my stomach!

    Feeling baby moving at the moment, makes me happy :)

    How far on are you Jox?

    Does anyone who doesn't know the sex have a feeling what they are having ? For some reason I am almost positive i'm having a boy... don't know why and we wont be finding out but its strange.

    I'm feeling nauseous so eating minstrels to try to keep the feeling at bay!

    But no where near as ill as I felt even a week or so ago.

    At first I thought girl, now I think boy!

    I'm 99.9% certain it's a boy, so convinced I'm tempted to buy a little boy babygro!

    Glad you are feeling a bit better Claire xx

    I'm 22+2, the movements are more fluttery feelings rather than kicks or anything, and I feel them in the evenings when I'm lying on sofa or in bed.

    What was interesting was the number of gender predictors that guessed she was having a girl and she had a boy. Although many were a draw but she seemed to want a girl so that skewed her interpretation.

    I've not got a clue! I'm wondering whether I'm get more of a feeling when the baby is bigger and I can feel it more. I want a girl but I'm craving crisps (salty), I've only put on 4lb (although I wasn't slim to start with) and the baby feels very low to me. Most people say those mean it's a boy.
    Don't listen to me, I'm no expert!

    I've always thought this bubs would be a boy (we haven't and won't find out til the birth) from the bfp. Dh thought it was a girl for the first trimester but then changed his mind at the scan cos he just said he felt like it looked like a boy?? He loves the idea of having a baby girl (first, or next if we're lucky enough to have more) but has been swayed into thinking it's probably a boy (and it's still just as excited, don't get me wrong!) Though neither of us actually know, and we've talked about girl names as much as boy names...

    Glad you're managing to keep more down now claire :)

    Eta: Squirrel: I get that, with the sneezing pain only sometimes, too. It's always worse for me around growth spurts, as the ligaments seem to be going through a more painful stretching period. I've taken to bracing myself regardless these days. ;) Also, in case noone tells you and you worry - it's normal for baby to move a little less than normal when they're going through growth spurts too. They also make me hungier and more tired and achey.
