Hi everyone,

just wanted to say 'hello!' and that I am still here! I know I don't post or reply to posts very often but I do try to have a good read whenever I can.

Can't believe I'm 16 wks on Fri, these wks post 12 wk scan seem to have gone a lot quicker than the wks building up to the scan!!! Have my next mw appointment next Tues then 20 wk scan on the 24th June, but we're not going to find out the sex this time, I really want a surprise

Loving seeing all the bumps too, would put mine on but I dont know how to do pictures! Mine is growing pretty well at the mo, definitely the size I was at about 20+ wks last time, those stomach muscles are well and truly none existent it would seem!!

Will keep trying to pop on more regularly!!

oooo! we're scan buddies! I have my 20 week scan on the 24th too! although I will be 21weeks!

hey doing well, got my second mw appt a week tomorrow and my 20 week scan is on 1st July - time is going by quite nicely now...enjoying every minute!

20 week scan on 21st June, 4 weeks today! I hope it goes quick.. I can't stop bloody buying things! We picked up our buggy on the weekend, then got a bunch of babygrows in Mothercare so I can use them as patterns and try and make some, then I just bought a snowsuit on ebay because I couldn't resist it's cuteness and it was only 99p! I wish my bump would hurry up and grow too, at the moment I'm just a bit fat haha

I'm mahoosive already, back in maternity work clothes, at least everyone can see I'm pregnant now and not just letting myself go!!! Not enjoying my bump, it's not like last time. It was so tight and neat but now I'm still so wobbly after last baby!!! Bleeuurggh!!!

First midwife apt on 1st June, looking forward to seeing my lovely midwives again! Scan not until the 4th July...I'm one of the last!!!! Booooooo I'm so desperate to find out this time!!!!

I'm enjoying things though, just wish it'd go a bit quicker but I know like last time I should relish the quiet time I do get...I guess it will be few and far between with 2 babies under 2!!! xxxx

Hi Squeezed - just being nosey here.....BUT what buggy did you go for??? I am considering the Graco Symbio, but have also heard good stuff about the Recaro Akuna - but finding an Akuna to try out is not easy!!! I also like the Silvercross Surf

He he Womble, I was going to ask the same, what buggy did you get?!?

Think we're going to wait and see nearer the time to see how much little one wants to walk, as a lot can change in 5 months with a toddler, lol! But I'm thinking I'd love a Phil and Teds, seem v practical for two and there are a lot on ebay. (would love new, but after splashing out on a Bugaboo for C, it's deffo going to have to be an ebay job this time, lol!)

Hi Everyone,

I have been a bit lacking in posts too recently, just not been feeling great. Unfortunately my symptoms did not magically disappear after the 12 weeks, I'm 14 weeks now and my morning sickness is actually worse. Breakfast did not survive this morning! Aside from feeling rubbish I don't actually really feel pregnant. It's weird because I know I am but I think I am just distracted with my dd and all the things that have happened recently and it hasn't quite sunk in. With my dd I had been so desperate to get pregnant for so long that I think it made it a bit different. I am looking at buggies too, we walk everywhere so we need a double despite what my husband thinks but I have no idea really, apart from a very expensive one I have seen that I love (who's name I can't remember!).
My scan is on 1st July, and I'm still undecided as to whether to find out or not, it's a week after we get back from holiday, and I've got a midwife appt next week, a week before we go away, so a busy month which will I think make the time go quickly I think.

It will be exciting to see what people are having, even if some people don't find out! xxxx

We went for baby jogger city classic, it's great! We want to carry a lot though so didn't want a convertible-67-ways travel system, and this will get us all the way through.

Hope you recover soon ravioli, it really is horrible feeling ill all the time.

thanks sqeezedd. Spent most of the morning in the toilets, work think i'm skiving I think! Oh well, could be worse xxx

Oh Ravioli,

pants about still feeling ick, not fun at all I know what you mean about not feeling pregnant, I had MW today and said I feel weird, as apart from a belly that's getting bigger I just feel normal! She got her doppler out tho and we had a good listen of baby's heartbeat, so that was v reassuring

Sounds like you will have a busy few wks ahead, which as you say, should make the time go quicker, I know we shouldn't wish it away, as everyone always says you'll miss being pregnant when you're not, and I know I did, but as much as it's a wonderful time, it's a time full of anxiety of unknowns, and I always feel like I'm waiting to get to the next hurdle!!!
