12-24 weeks pregnant (part 3)

runmichellerun

Exercise: not as much as I'd like. I have started preg yoga which I love but is only once a week. Try and go on at least 2 long walks every week too, but it often doesn't happen.

As for houses, well I think my search MAY be over. After looking at around 30 houses, and having put in offers on some of them but them all going wrong, we have finally had an offer accepted on one.

If this one doesn't go wrong I'm not sure what I'm going to do with myself. All my weekends and evenings have been spent house hunting for months.

Good luck time with your search.

That's brilliant news runmichellerun!:j Fingers crossed it all progresses successfully. Searching for a house really does take up time.

We're going back for a second viewing next week of one we can't afford - well, we can afford 92% of asking price, and they dropped to the current asking price a fortnight or so ago, so not sure how keen they'd be on any offer we'd be able to make. The downstairs is lovely, but the upstairs is awkward, small rooms and needs some work. Going to have a good think about what we could do to re-work it (couldn't afford to make changes for a few years though).

timeflies I've not done any exercise but I have been trying to find aquanatal classes and unfortunately the council centre ones have just moved to be on a friday morning only which is annoying. There is a private run one but that costs £9.00 and you have to buy 6 sessions and another one I looked into has since moved to 30 minutes away. We're going to try swimming next week hopefully.

Good luck with your house, you never know what someone will accept so it's worth offering especially if you're in a good position.

RMR great news on the house, fingers crossed for you that it runs smoothly and nothing happens for you although I've probably jinxed it now :rotfl:.

AFM I'm really tired. Its frustrating as I was going to try and get some sorting out to do while hubby is at a stag do (from 3pm....) so was hoping to just slowly sort through things but I might just end up having a lie down and playing on the ps3 :rotfl: I know he won't mind but I just feel awful that he's constantly doing everything and all I do is wash the clothes and hang them up.

Anyway off to get my eyes tested and choose new frames today yay and also need to go and pick up a parcel which is in my maiden name so have got my old passport, new passport and marriage certificate to prove who I am hopefully it's enough.

Have a great day ladies xx

Alioops my id is never checked when collecting parcels so u should be fine with that lot.

Thanks freebie - the guy laughed at how much id I'd brought with me and just said to show him my current passport so I now have my maternity crop jeans and top from Peacocks yay.

Man it's been quiet on here today. I've been so bored since 3.30pm as that's when hubby went to the stag do, there's heaps for me to do but I have a case of the cba's lol.

It is quiet alioops78 - have all the chatterboxes graduated to the next thread?;)

Glad collecting your parcel was easy. I still haven't bought any maternity clothes. My sister has some for me, and I have a lot of jersey dresses that should see me ok for a while. Is there such a thing as maternity leggings? I wear a lot of dresses with leggings.

We've booked an anniversary weekend away in a few weeks - not too far from home - near Bude. Not been before, really looking forward to a few relaxing days off together :heart2:

Timeflies yep anywhere that sells maternity wear seems to sell leggings

If you are looking for more chat there is a FB group that has been set up which some of the 'big girls' are members of. Not everyone likes it as you lose some anonymity (although the group itself is secret). PM me if you want to join.

Thanks time2deal, although I might never be off the internet! My MSE group from our monthly wedding thread that got married 2 years ago still talk the hind legs of a donkey every day!

Just a quick question about first movements. When you first felt your baby move (if you have), was it quite low down? I am having definite feelings at the bottom of my belly, and felt a small movement. Even OH felt it with his hand on my belly. Please tell me this was baby.
