Thank you so much perfectxmess

Thanks Monz, only by a pound, but under is under !!!!

So, major improvement so far today - only 1 bout of sickness!! Hopefully my placenta is finally taking over so my hormones can settle or it might just be a fluke, we shall see how the rest of the day goes and if tomorrow is the same, fingers crossed

Am waiting for my 12 week scan date which they said could take 2 weeks from my midwife appt to come so if nothing has arrived on Monday I'll give them a call.

I'm hoping for some savings from NZ spends so we can make extra payments to the CC when we get back - not sure whether it will be the NZ CC or OHs at the moment but one of them will hopefully be getting a cash injection....if I can persuade OH he doesn't need every piece of V8 memorabilia that is!

Well my good day was wishful thinking but I am getting used to it a bit more I think.

My scan date finally came through too, 25th September a bit later than I would have liked but I'm just happy to have a date now!

3 weeks today until we leave for NZ, I'm getting a bit nervous about feeling so rough on such long flights but I'm sure I'll be fine.

Couldn't resist a cute little outfit for donut today. It's the first thing I've bought. I wasn't planning to until after the scan but my heart melted at this little winnie the pooh set in sainsbobs so it accidentally fell in the trolley

Little PAD of £9 to OHs BC today as I felt that the number was a bit stagnant. PA has been slow at the moment and I only have £18 ready to cash out which is nothing compared to how I was doing in June/July but hoping it will pick up soon so I can get back to the OPs to CC and mortgage more often

12 days to go . If I see any deals will let you know xx

Thanks Monz I've got 2 countdown apps on my phone to the scan....obsessed much!

I was part of 2 TTC groups - one on here and one on FB and a few of those ladies have gotten their positives in the last few weeks - I'm so thrilled for them! It makes it feel more real for me when I think about how far I've come since we found out - it feels like it's taking FOREVER but actually we've known for 8 weeks on Friday....it doesn't feel that far away that we found out!

I found donuts heartbeat with my handheld doppler at home last night as well - so lovely to hear

Nieces 1st birthday this weekend and I've been very reserved and only bought her an outfit and a baby einstein toy - she will get so much that it just gets lost in the pile so I'll save the money into the presents pot and get her something a bit bigger for Christmas. I can't believe she is 1 already. Where does the time go!! xx

I've set myself a new financial challenge - I want to have paid £2k on overpayments to the mortgage by the time we have been in the house 1 year, so I have 3 paydays to make that happen and £275.26 to pay. £91.75 a month. I can so do this!!

I won't be able to do anywhere near this next year while I'm on maternity leave so I'll concentrate on this target and see if I can beat it

We are still going through the name agony, I think we have decided on double barrelled for the surname but the boys name we liked had 2 middle names which sounds ridiculous with 2 surnames so we have to rethink that plan now

monz

ahhh let me hear... mail me xx

Maybe OH should put a ring on it :rotfl:

My first born son has three names and his surname it is a bit of a mouthful lol xx

kirtsypoos

I've given up hinting about it abba, he's adamant that if we get engaged it won't be until after the baby is born even the threat of my name only wouldn't change his mind, stubborn mule he is :rotfl:
