Any baby yet? My little girl is 4months now. It's so lovely. Hope your birth goes well!!! I said never again after mine but now we want another in a few years lol

Wow!! What a crazy few months. My beautiful girl is now 4 months. I'm loving it :) Anyway I'm wanting to start up my healthy eating again. I'm only 7lbs over my usual weight so not far off. I'm just deciding whether to do pp or simply filling. I'll want to catch up with you all soon. Happy...

Any baby news?

She's growing so quick!! 5 weeks already and has gained 1lb 4ounces. I want to start bk up on a diet plan tomorrow and I'm just trying to decide between slimming world and weight watchers. I have my mums log in for slimming world PDF sheets of the books. It looks okay. I obviously know weight...

Thanks! That's perfect! I know what to do now.....lots if extras :)

I have joined SW online and aim to start tomorrow, just writing a shopping list now. Does anyone know in the SW website where or how I find the information about healthy extras and Breastfeeding. I am Breastfeeding my 4 wk yr old and I know I get extra healthy extras.

Long time no update. My beautiful baby girl was born a week ago, my hind waters broke, so they had to fully break them for me and she had poo'd inside me. So I was stuck to a machine for the whole birth. But all worth it. She was born at a whopping 9lbs 3 ounces. So much for measuring small at...

I'm exhausted. 6 days until due date. Sorry I haven't been online, it's been a bit manic getting organised and also just feeling pretty crap in the lead up to baby. My body hasn't coped well. I've been having pains/practise contractions/back pain for past week. Had my show. So hopefully I will...

38 weeks eeeeeeeek!!!! Had a midwife appointment, everything perfect. My blood pressure gone up to 105/60 which is normal, no longer low yay!! So now I got home and we have no food.....I'm going to make shortbread I think :)

Yea I said I'd stop once it became hard. I've been super hungry today....got period pains and feel crap.

Mmm today's evening meal, unpointed Mash, pork, stuffing, cheese, veg, gravy. Yum I've given up on pointing/ww as of today. It's getting too hard to stick to anything, I'm too uncomfortable, hungry and unpredictable. I'm going to make my last 2 weeks 5 days + any extra days as easy as possible :)

She can come now...I'm bored of waiting

Happy Friday!!! :)

Spontaneous WI this morning. 3rd trimester I've gained 6lbs. :) Which is amazing really as I've eaten so well. Over 37 weeks now so I'm full term. Had a growth scan this morning and baby is bigger :) They did an an estimate of being over 7lbs now. So 3 weeks time.....I could be having an 8lber...

There are free foods in it. It's over 60% tomato. I'll check for her tomorrow when I see her.

With the movements I don't think anything is normal. We are all different. I felt movements from about 17/18 weeks but didn't see my belly move until about 22 weeks. Then 25 weeks was when my husband could feel it. But it depends on a lot of things. Good luck with scan. 20 week one is amazing...

Looks tasty !! You have a preference or don't mind? I was convinced I was having a boy. Then when I found out girl I was quite shocked. Felt like more responsibility on me....bringing up a girl. But we just wanted a healthy baby and didn't mind sex. Husband still looks at boys clothes in tesco...

Ooo nearly scan time. I remember it took agea to get to 20 weeks but after that it has flown by. Pasta bake sounds great, salad is a good option to go with it too :) Lighter option as pasta can be heavy sometimes :)

Hi everyone, I'm not sure if she's searching the wrong words in her app but my mum is looking for 'Ragu Hidden Veg' on her SW app and can't find it. Can someone check? If it isn't there then normal ragu will do, I don't think there is much difference. Just the sauce, she's making pasta. Thanks

How many weeks are you now Hun?

36weeks 4days Breakfast Mushroom & Spinach Omelette Coffee Lunch Wholemeal pasta, cream cheese (0pp) spring onion & Chicken Dinner Fishcake (6pp) broccoli, carrots, new potato Snacks Me Freeze x 3 (1pp) Banana, apple, popcorn, strawberry milkshake Used = 7pp Remaining = 21pp

Good thanks! Just been busy! Finished work now and really needed the break. Babies head is 3/5 engaged and when ether I walk too far I feel so much pressure. Just want her in my arms now. How are you?

I start maternity leave in 2 days...this heat has been hell at work. But I bet now I'm off it will turn cold grrr

Breakfast Porridge banana Sugarfree jelly Coffee Lunch Cold wrap pizza with 3bean salad and lettuce Dinner My brother is doing slimming world....he has the cookbook called Fakeaways. He made me burger and chips and tomato relish, side salad. It was free for him on SW as the bread was an extra...

Garden looks lovely Hun! Bet it was hard work in this heat!!

Might need to check that offer out :) love G&B

Hi Hun! Been a bit absent these past few days, really feeling this heat. Babies head is engaged now and it's very uncomfortable. I've had a growth scan via ultra sound and baby is exactly the correct size, well a little longer but pretty much perfect. From the outside I measure 3 weeks small...

Mmmm now in the oven, not very healthy but I need some pizza. Dinner 1/2 Pizza (lots of pp) with salad and broccoli.

Sometimes life can be so disappointing. Someone from work getting a Gregg's for lunch, I thought 'treat yourself' eat the lovely salad you made tomorrow. So I got a tuna crunch....my fave Gregg's Sarnie. The bread was stale and it tasted warm. What a waste of pp when I had a lovely salad I could...

From tesco, I take multivitamin with iron. It's just 1 a day. Cheaper than the pregnancy stuff. I don't think it's necessary but it won't do any harm.

I asked this when I stopped taking the one with folic acid at 13 weeks. She said I could continue taking a pregnancy vitamin, even the same one I took in the beginning. The body won't react to having extra folic acid after 12/13 week. Or she said just to take a good multivitamin with everything...

Breakfast Brown Bread, Bacon, Tomato Ketchup (0pp) Mmm bacon Sarnie.....mmmm Coffee and a banana

We have sunshine with a bit of thunder and lightening. Weird stuff

Babies heart beat is crazy fast isn't it. I love the sound :) Hope your enjoying the sun :)

I'm just thinking of plans to follow once baby is born. I want to breastfeed so will allow myself some time to adjust to life as a mummy before I even start to diet but I like to be prepared. Weight Watchers - 14pp extra per day if Breastfeeding, 7pp extra per day if Breastfeeding and...

I know it's lovely weather but horrible when you see it out the window at work. I'm off tomorrow so I hope it stays nice :)

Unless...:you make a huge one then freeze it in portions. That's what I do. Tastes loads nicer.

Today did go quick!! Midwife measured my stomach 4 times with tape measure. As I was measuring small, when she plotted it on my chart I was only 1 week under what I should be, my chart is set up for my height/weight pre pregnancy. So she failed to notice I was tall, so it all made sense once she...

I need it. I think tomorrow I'm gonna find somewhere cold, stick a film on and do nothing.

Morning everyone! I have Friday off so.....nearly the weekend :) just need to get today done :)

Omg it's 25degree, I'm 34 weeks preggers and I've just walked 5 miles! Am I crazy? Probably. Why didn't I get the bus.... Miss my car.....hubby has taken it and I can't drive his cos it's getting fixed. Anyway I just walked into mcdonalds for a full fat coke as all my body wants is sugar and...

My friend has had a cake per day since about week 15 and she's 26 weeks now lol Mind you....she's still skinny.....cow lol!! Not fair!!

I think most the ones I eat have some sugar in, but soo worth it. There about 3 pops for 1pp. Or 1 ice lolly per 1pp mmmm yum

I've lollys/pops Like mr freeze, orange lollies, ribena lollies. Anything cold and fruity. I literally have 3 or 4 after each other. Pretty cool there so low calorie haha!! Could be a lot worse if it was cake.

She's okay most the time, it must just be hard for her. I guess she wants a baby so badly and it's hard seeing me. I don't blame her. Craving time yeahhhhhh!!

I have to be so careful at work. There are 4 of us, all female. One lady has been single her whole life and is almost 40 and thinks her time is up, the other 2 have been trying for children for well over 10 years, one of them is currently trying to adopt. I get pregnant the first month trying...

Zzzzzzzzzz!!!!! Let me just get the negatives out the way 1. I'm tired 2. I'm moody 3. Baby has no room and I feel so stretched 4. I need a wee every time I stand up 5. I feel like a frump Hmm so let's think of 5 positives to balance it out 1. I love her so much 2. I have a lovely burger for...

Donut yum! I had one too a ring donut with lemon flavour and meringue on top. Sausage and onion gravy sounds nice. Yum :)

Out Midwife told us to join Emma's Diary. Just use an old email as there are junk emails. There will be some vouchers for Argos. And 3 packs to collect from Argos. One of the Argos packs has a leaflet to collect a johnsons pack and that has a full size pack of wipes, baby oil, bath lotion and a...

Me too! I tried a few other baby products too as they smell so nice, good jobs I have lots of freebies lol

Your daughter is sooo cute :) I've been baking with my friends daughter today, can't wait for my baby now :) 2lbs isn't too bad a gain for being off plan, it be gone in no time. Enjoy the Chinese :)

Enjoy all your meals out :) I love eating out.

I'm addicted to liquid talc. I got a free sample in a baby pack. It's talc that's like a cream but it dries soft, if you put too much in it goes powdery like talc. Baby ain't getting none of this. Mummy is addicted :)

Yesterday my mum for baby a crib, my brother brought the playmat round he bought and it's all feeling real. ARGHHhh. I went for 'Fish&Chips' with 4 friends last night. It's a lovely restaurant, nothing fancy just good quality food. Some battered fish with chips and mushy peas was just what I...

3rd trimester is usually about 1lb gain per week. That's what they recommend. I got mine from newsagent but I think they are sold in asda. They look like this:

I'm being good most the time and I do need to keep an eye on things with gestational diabetes but we can't be perfect all the time. I'm over 33 weeks now.....starting to get so tired in the evenings, so when I fancy something I have it. In 6 weeks I've gained 2.5lbs. If I wasn't following...

1lb gain!! Baby is happy in there....she made me eat a dine bar inside a cadburys chocolate bar last night. And a peanut butter twix. Totally worth it and over my pp for week but I don't mind. I need days like that.

Breakfast - Crumpet x 2 with egg Lunch - Chicken salad with avocado and olives(2pp) and a yummy dressing (1pp) Dinner - ww wrap pizza, with wedges and ketchup (0pp) Snacks- tangerine, apple, banana, Bacon rather flavour crisps (3pp) popcorn, carrot and hummous(1pp) =7pp I have the pizza and...

How many weeks are you now? My sickness went and then came back at 15/16 weeks for a few weeks. Really annoyed me!! 5lbs is a tiny gain overall!

Someone told me to play music to my baby girl. Like put the speaker on my phone to my belly. She went crazy kicking and moving. It wasn't too loud but I think I may have scared her!!! Best not do that again.....my stomach sees enough movement from this little munchkin.

I got a bit of a waddle on today, when I stand up and baby is pushing on bladder and I walk to the toilet, I look funny I think :) Another pp day. Breakfast - 2x Crumpet + Flora Light = 6pp Lunch - Chicken, salad sandwich = 8pp Dinner - Chicken Chow Mein 8pp and a spring roll 2pp. I put so...

Thanks everyone. I think it's my hormones but also I do think I'm clueless lol! I will take your advice and hope that it all falls into place. My mum said I will be worrying my whole life, it starts when they are inside you, then continues forever. She said when I left to go to university she...

Welcome Back! Great photo tracking over the past week :)

I'm a mess....a big pathetic mess lol!! I'm not an emotional person, I didn't even cry at my own wedding. I'm laid here on sofa with tv on, babies foot is kicking my rib, and again and again. She's getting big. I am just thinking I'm so unprepared. Not physically or in terms of shopping and...

Oh no that's awful! Great the alarm worked tho, saved you the hassle of having things taken. And you look lovely :) When I was in the early stages of pregnancy I remember being knackered and forgetting the alarm code. It was so loud and my husband for an instant message to tell him it had been...

Miss you!!! Hope your back soon Hun!

You have nothing to wear cos your bump is growing or you have nothing to wear? Once you are ready for maternity clothes, I haven't bought many at all but found newlook is reasonable and I did get a few bits from ASOS. I didn't wanna pay NEXT prices but they did some lovely stuff.

Hi guys!! Ever so sorry but will have to catch up with all your diaries tomorrow. I've been out and about all day. This party I have been to this evening, I only stayed 3 hours but was in my feet the whole time. Buffet was nice. I am just knackered, I wanna stay awake for at least 2 more...

Can't wait to wear my engagement and wedding ring again. I have been without them for 2 months. They still fit but I get hot quicker now, my fingers swell and I panic they will get stuck :( I miss them!!!! Grabbing breakfast with my mum today, go to a few shops and then back to mine. Party...

I added 1pp reduced fat pesto to the green beans

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! :) A 1lb gain! Which is only 2lbs in a month doing F&H. I'm over the moon. This week I have been rubbish at recording stuff but I've had 3 breakfasts out, 1 lunch out, and 3 evening meals out!! Lol Plus last night I thought F it and sprinkled HUGE amounts of cheese all over...

Just an instant shocking unexpected pain but fine after. She rally is running out of room. I had tomatoey pasta, defrosted some sauce I made a few weeks back. Had lots of cheese on it tho, was nice ;)

Oh wow! Yunno I don't know what's normal with pregnancy and what isn't. But this baby need more room. She's just done the biggest kick or punch ever. It actually make me scream owe. It felt like she hit a nerve or something's lol. The midwife explained her position today. Head down, spine up...

This mornings breakfast: I name this Eggy Crumpet. Almost like french toast. So it's 1 egg, sweetener, and a crumpet. Cooked in my tiny frying pan. I really likes it :) and totally F&H I'm gonna make pasta for tea, with loads and loads of cheese on. So it's like I'm having a pizza lol. I...

Lasagne lol

The hubby is out tonight and I have the house to myself which I always love lol he's back tomorrow afternoon woop I fancy a treat but our house is far out so is usually £3 delivery charge. Which is a bit extreme for one person lol So my options are local: Chippy - not really fancying it Pizza...

Nope my iron levels are high. Pre pregnancy I was super fit. Like I'd go on 1 hour runs etc, so my blood pressure and heart rate is low due to good health and fitness. But it should have gone back up but hasn't. Pre pregnancy I never had any headaches of dizziness....but they started about a...

It is always low. Naturally low but still healthy. But through pregnancy is has got lower. I just get dizzy and stuff but it isn't too bad. I just don't know why it's worse some days.

18p each Or 18p for 4 Either way that's cheap lol

Midwife in the morning! I think my blood pressure has dropped low again :( so will be glad to have it checked. Food has been good today. I'm almost too tired to log it lol Breakfast - Crumpet & Egg Lunch - Chicken, Pasta and Salad Dinner - Spicy Rice, with quorn sausages (4pp) and green beans...

I'm missing everyone's treats!!! Get posting people! I had a 2 pack of Oreos tonight. :) Meringue looks great Sarah

Was about to ask the same. You been sticking to plan?

How's things? Are you feeling any better?

Food looks good, I love wedges :)

Hey Hun! Just a quick message to let you know Mothercare have a preview sale today. Sale starts tomorrow. But if you join 'my mothercare' they send you a link to preview it today. Some stuff isn't that much cheaper, but I've just bought lots of bits n bobs for £1 and my mum got me a Moses...

Lol

Looks gross on pic. Steak, onion rings, sweet potato fries, veg, Ketchup Well done steak unfortunately grrrr. I did the hubby's nice and pink.

I'll have a look later when I'm upstairs. I think it's something like sonoline b or something like that

They are panicking I think as they haven't organised cover for me, half the stuff I do my manager doesn't understand and the impact of it not being done is big. So I have less than a month left at work, I'm not worried but they should be lol!! She won't go to HR, I've had the leave booked for...

I'm annoyed!!! I've worked for 10 years in different jobs but for the same employer and have had zero days off sick, never been late and I've worked every Christmas cos every department I've worked in has single young mums who 'HAVE' to have Xmas off. Anyway I booked next week off about 3...

I chop raw red chilli on my salad lol!! I love spice :)

I love sweet chilli sauce! My favourite thing. I put it in a lot of stuff :) All looking good Hun! :)

All looks delicious. Is that a probiotic drink? Which do you buy?

Week 3 - Day 4 So today I planned to have a F&H day, simply to discover we had no food in the house lol!! F&H is pretty impossible with no food, so I changed to pp. I just give myself 40 pp as a guess as I'm pregnant. We have now done big shop and I am ready and raring to go tomorrow...

Aww Hun don't feel like you have let anyone down and I very much doubt anyone will unsubscribe. You need to to think of yourself and do what is best for you. *Hugs* Your right, draw a line and forget about it. It's a new day. If pp isn't an option then I suggest you just do healthy eating until...

How come Hun? If you don't mind me asking. Just a choice? Or health related?

And mummy found a wedding outfit. I couldn't find a maxi dress I liked in tall. But I did find this dress Now the model doesn't look pregnant in the slightest but I do look pregnant in it. My legs have stayed nice and slim, plus it doesn't matter that it isn't tall as it isn't too long. Plus...

Thanks you 2!! £8 for the set is such a bargain too! I'll remember to take a snap when little baby grows to 3-6months :)

And sorry if I turn your diary into a pregnancy chat.... Lol

Hope your feeling better sweetie!! Get some rest! Drink lots of water!! I got very dizzy inbetween 12 and 16 weeks. I've always had low blood pressure, well the lower end of normal. Mine dropped even lower. It might be worth getting it checked of your still feel similar tomorrow. And in regards...

I wouldn't point the coleslaw that high, but the wrap etc sounds about right. Chinese looks good....my hubby is out on Thursday night, staying over in Leeds, something to do with tour de france presentation, so I'm thinking of getting a takeaway for one lol. Maybe I should opt for Chinese :)

To be honest I hate TK Max as I'm too lazy to look. The hubby goes in as they have Adidas and Nike running/cycling stuff. So I found the hungry caterpillar stuff by luck. I like shops where I don't have to rummage. That's why I hate sales, cos I can't be bothered. 3 Piece Set 3-6months :)

Home Coffee and cake :)

Never mind. You need the energy. I think once you hit 3rd trimester your body burns an extra 300 calories per day. I had an appointment last week and baby measures exactly the right size, although I don't know how a tape measure knows that. I've been trying to avoid stretch marks, I'll be 32...

Just had a catch up......lots to read. I love that chewits are 3pp. Amazing :) Your children are adorable and so happy. How long does he keep the trophy for?? Your doing fab and I might buy some thins when I go shopping :)

Mmm pizza and wedges sounds great!! With ketchup. :) Hope it tastes good!!! Just had a catch up, your doing great! Are you feeling yourself or feeling the tiredness?

A STS isn't bad.....we all know there are loads of reasons for our weight to stick. Some out of our control. Just stick at it and you'll see the numbers go down next week :) Have a lovely day!! Xx

Morning All Yesterday was nice, relaxing, swimming, manicure, small amount of shopping. I got my baby girl a cute 'hungry caterpillar set from TKmax. It's spotty leggings, caterpillar baby grow with the logo on and a matching button up cardigan. All official Eric Carle. Only cost £8 for the...

I'm actually sat having a costa coffee while hubby goes to the sports shops he wants to go to as I can cope. Everytime I stand up to walk I need a wee. I think babies getting big. Baby was moving like crazy this morning and I swear the bum was sticking out to my side lol. Breakfast this morning...

I really enjoyed it. The theatre in Leeds is amazing too, one of the nicest and I was comfy for a change. Love the story of Wicked :)

You should go, all the pp are on the ww app not that it influenced my decision but some of the ramens are only 14pp. F&B breakfast was great, choices for veggies too.

Breakfast - Cheese and Tomato Omelette and coffees Lunch - None Dinner - Chilli Beef Ramen, yummy lots of noodles in and I ate it all. With a side of tofu gyoza which are little dumplings. You get a big spoon for broth and chop sticks for rest But the hubby used a fork lol I also had peach iced...

P.S 2 Days without pointing woooooop!!! I won't be on much for a few days. But I will update you all on my return :) Also excited to have my weeklies back when I return to plan on Sunday lol :)

So I've finally dragged myself out if bed....... And I'm shocked. I was expecting a 2lb gain. Not because I've been crazy with food, just because I've grown so big this week, I can feel baby moving way more and I'm pretty tired. + Baby has gained 0.5lbs according to my app. But I only gained...

Have a fab day at school!! :)

You can make your own cheese sauce quite easily. Milk, flour and cheese. Pinch salt. Then you can control points, use reduced fat cheddar and whatever milk you pick. I've only ever made my own cheese sauce.

Great news! It's surprising how well we can do at times when we are sure we have done bad. Good luck on reaching your first stone this week :)

Yummy!!! I have been wanting peshwari naan bread for a while now and supermarket version won't cut it. Might get the hubby to take me for an Indian this weekend :)

F&B's good for breakfast :) I wonder if the breakfast pizza is pizza sized? I thought I'd look at the menu before hand as I get overwhelmed by so many amazing choices. Unlimited coffee is fab, you can stay and chat for ages lol!!

Gonna head here for breakfast in the way out of town. http://www.frankieandbennys.com/sites/default/files/menus/FB%20large%20font%20Breakfast.pdf What would you all pick as a treat and as a healthy option....?

They do peach ice tea as well and that's nice. I used to be vegetarian and it's very veggie friendly which is why I loved it so much I think. I love food though, I get excited about every restaurant I go to :)

It's noodles in a tasty broth, with meat and loads of veg. You get chopsticks and a big spoon lol!! I used to get the tofu one, but may have something a bit meaty this time. I don't go very often, but I did when I was at uni. I used to get curry or something every time until I discovered this lol

I've been craving a ramen from waggamammas all week. So hopefully I can fit one of them in :)

Mmmm icecream. I fancy the banana one the most. Is it 2 tubs for £3.50?

Food looks great! Do you dip your food into the mint sauce or pour it on your plate. I've never thought about having it in food that isn't a Sunday roast lol

Oops Here it is again

Lol I was reading about your treat tray and I was about to say what about the other half of flake. Lol Then saw you had it. It's impossible to leave half a bar of anything for me.

I think the groups are a great idea for people who need that motivation. I've never been to one but I've always been interested in going. I'd hate to turn up and gained, so I think I'd stick to plan more. Bit hard without a car tho, I think if you have to mess around with public transport and...

Indian meals look delicious :) I love mango chutney. I could just sit and eat that with the popadoms. What curry did you get?

Day 19 Gestation - 30 weeks 7 days I give myself 40pp on a pointing day, as I'm pregnant :) Breakfast Beans (3pp) Scrambled egg (5pp) Fruit Coffee 1pp Lunch Chicken salad with cucumber, tomato, pepper, dressing and olives (6pp) Dinner Lamb (5pp) carrots, broccoli, green beans, new potato...

Thanks for the support guys. I'll catch up with all your diaries later tonight. It's been a busy day. So my plan is to WI tomorrow morning as usual and then have tomorrow and Saturday off plan. Then have a 5 day F&H week with 35 weeklies. We are going away for 2 nights, I will make good...

My WI day tomorrow too!! You'll be fine. There is nothing I love more than a fresh load of weeklies lol

Me and my husband are always away, either on weekends or weeks. So we have probably tried all the uk chain places at some point. I've deffo done all the Italian ones. I've been craving a waggamammas ramen all week, and we don't have one. So hoping to find one on our weekend away this weekend :)

That's the official app

Breakfast this morning beans and scrambled egg. F&H day!! I am expecting a gain tomorrow, at least 1 lb maybe more. No joke.....my belly this week has grown so much. All the other weeks I haven't seen the change from week to week. I take a photo of my bump each week for my baby app and 100%...

I'm really scared of being a mum. So I'm a bit nervous. But I'm so excited to meet her and make it all real. As it just feels a million miles away.

I can't wait to have my little girl. Then I can log in here and say Woop I lost 8lbs lol!!! Love being pregnant but I do feel really big.

Sulked at the hubby cos he's watching football and I have to watch one born every minute in bed on the small tv lol!! So he brought be a cuppa and 2 Jaffa cakes. Cute lol

Yup too bready. Pizza express do a great thin base pizza. They make it bigger as well as the base is stretched big.

Food looks great and the plates make it look even better :) I'd go by the nutrition and not the box. They prob just put 1pp to sell more lol

Lol! I wouldn't know what I paid, I just threw them in. Most stuff in asda is £1. They are very crumbly.

Mmm yum! I love wrap pizza. I love any pizza with a thin crispy base. Looks like your doing great Hun and a great meal for 9pp

I wouldn't worry about that, just worry about keeping your body healthy to grow a healthy baby :) I read that baby learns to like the foods you ate during pregnancy. So your baby will like Indian food hehe.

Icecream was nice and plenty left for tomorrow. Hubby ate loads of it. I like the graze olives, they taste way better than from the supermarket.

For the past month my baby has been growing at a rate of about 1/4lb per week (obviously I don't know this for sure but my app tells me an estimate) this week baby has grown over half a pound. And will continue to grow about half a lb now until the end. I can feel this. I'm tired, babies...

I start work at 8, so I have to make quick decisions lol! What did you have in the end?

I did actually it was yummy. Had the one slice with lots of cheese. Rather than my two usual slices. Was better than the porridge I planned :)

Sounds like a hit!! I'm having a pp day as I want cheese in toast for breakfast.

Your a girl making machine :) ever gonna try again....see if you get a little guy? I love all the little boy clothes, I spent my first 20 weeks of pregnancy checking out all the little boy stuff. Was shocked to see I was having a girl but really happy.

I may have to buy one and see how it goes. Or hint at work. They are digging for gift ideas lol!! 'Soooooo Sarah is there anything you need to buy....?' By about 4 people in one day.

How old are your children?

I think they seem like a good idea. Very popular as well. Everyone has managed with blankets for so long, I wasn't sure if it was a unnecessary expense of good value as they are good lol

Any mums got an opinion for me on these: Not the design just the product. Grow bags. I've been advised they are brilliant and I've only heard good things. Baby wears a baby grow underneath and you buy the right tog grow bag for the season you are in. No blankets needed at bed time. Basically it...

Now I know what they are. I just thought they were children's drink holders

http://youtu.be/05vnC3gxBB4

http://youtu.be/LuWSRDtXLP0

Just a local owned shop. They change flavours every day, If I want some I actually ring and tell them to save me a slice. Not had any in a while tho

I'm so boring. No cravings for me. Enjoy the cheesecake. We have a place near us, it's £3 for a huge slice, they do so many flavours, including peanut butter. You had a good day?

I saw them in tesco and didn't know what they were. Looks good :)

You put the base bowl in freezer. When it's been in long enough it clips into the machine. You pour in the ingredients and it stirs them around and around and half an hour later you have icecream. You can use cream etc for tasty stuff Fruit on it's own for sorbet, but it needs to be liquidy...

Love the plates and you got some good buys for not much money. Good work!

I've made some salad, so gonna make some tortilla chips with a wrap. Plus the icecream maker is in the freezer. So might make some strawberry icecream with my Greek yogurt. I bought some nice strawberries today.

Nah I'm not, but trying to plan a super filling day tomorrow :)

Erm well I'm not sure. I'll try and do it without....

No cos I just ate it all with your points lol!! I have PB Kitkat chunkys and a bar of galaxy that's been in there since Easter, and also an Easter egg and some dark chocolate with sea salt.

Please. Throw them my way. I don't know how I'll cope lol!

I'm not Serena but just saw this hehe You get an extra sip for that 1 point you overestimated. When I say sip I mean a mouthful lol!

It must be different everywhere Hun! I love the heartbeat lol

Cupcake looks good.....I want one

How are you feeling today?

I didn't hear the heart beat until I was at 25 week midwife appointment. At 20 week scan he did a graph of heart but no sound. However I have the thing to listen at home, I heard it first at 8 weeks, it put my mind at ease when I thought things were going wrong. Don't use it much now tho. Was a...

I have way too many plates for a 2 person house. Heart plates, chopping board plates, all sorts of junk. They are lovely and a bargain for £6

I have no weeklies left. All of tonight and 2 days to go. FAIL.

Cherry Tuesday!!!

Leeds. Which of course means nice food. Leeds has some really good restaurants.

Don't you just need potatoes?

Ditto! My little girl wouldn't keep still for it either. I went in half an hour later and still no luck. So I had the blood test at 16 weeks. The midwife said it's about 12% less accurate. I think my result was a 1 in 1500 chance. You'll be fine. Blood blood blood that's all those midwifes...

Pink sleepsuit is matalan. Dungarees tesco. Sales are everywhere. I love Asda baby clothes :) He can spot a bargain but believe me he also buys whatever he wants. He booked us a hotel this weekend for 2 nights and tickets to see Wicked. I would have been happy with a travel lodge. But he's...

My husband melts my heart....awwww! He keeps buying baby stuff. I don't mind as we have the money and he wants to spoil his little girl. But I told him to stop buying 0-3 months, as we have enough. He came home today with these.... The pink one is 3-6months and was reduced to £2 And the mini...

I like peanut butter everything. I might make these once I get some weeklies on Friday...

Don't worry about the gain, main thing is your back and on track. Im gonna have a big fat fail this week, as I have 5 weeklies to last me 3 days. Impossible lol!! All icecream is AMAZING :D

Well done on resisting the cakes, good work :D The potato smasher looks cool. I have a potato ricer which I use all the time. It makes lovely potato and carrot and swede, no lumps :D Glad you have had a good day.

Love the scan photos..how amazing :) only feels like 2 mins ago I was having mine and I'm due in 9 weeks lol. Did they get all the measurements? And did you see little bean moving away and stuff? Baby looks comfy all slouched down like that. Love the shop too :)

Day 16 Gestation - 30 weeks 4 days F&H Day Breakfast Crumpet, cream cheese (0pp) Melon Coffee Jelly Lunch Pasta, homemade pasta sauce, veg Dinner Chicken breast x 2 (as they were tiny) in tomato and basil sauce (1pp) with mash (1pp) and veg Snacks Popcorn Tangerine Banana Apple Meringue...

Same old same old with review. I just say and hear the same stuff every year. My manger has nominated me for some award though and I'm a finalist, so I have to go to an awards ceremony in July. I was like....eugh!! Now I need to find a dress that suits a wedding and an awards ceremony lol I...

We are sleepy and don't want to go to work :( Plus I have my PARD which is a yearly review we have. Booo Breakfast - Usuals. Crumpet and Fruit

Toe nails look good Play suit looks good And food looks good You did well at pointing the food. I find pointing things hard when I don't have the info, I think I overestimate.

40g dry kernels. Makes quite a lot really. I just split it into bags afterwards.

Enough for work tomorrow. Two perfect batches. I'm a pro popcorn maker.

Day 15 Gestation - 30 weeks 3 days F&H Day Breakfast Omelette with mushrooms, tomato, spinach and avocado. Sugarfree Jelly Coffee Lunch Tuna Sandwich with salad and salad cream(0pp) Crisps (3pp) Peanut Butter Kit Kat (7pp) Dinner Chicken Curry (2pp) with Wholemeal rice, naan (3pp) and onion...

Gross! Lol!

I don't mind leggings but unless there new they look grubby. Plus they have to be decent quality as I hate seeing people's underwear when they bend down. 'Primark Leggings'

I need to find a dress for a wedding, either online or in shops. My bump isn't massive for 30 weeks but I'm tall. Tall & Maternity wear don't mix. As the maternity dresses are too short. I could go for the dress with leggings look but I don't always think it looks that classy for weddings...

Morning All!! Breakfast for me today......100% free Following my new avocado rule :) I made a plain egg omelette, then fried some tomato, mushroom, spinach. Put the stuff inside the omelette and avocado on the side. A high in natural fat start to the morning. The hubby had the same but with...

I love mash from time to time. I put some flavour into it, and always butter which is why it has 1pp. Worth the 1pp :)

Asda (in the shelf section, not in the freezer) 5 in a box for £1

A 1pp treat.... Vimto Ice Lolly Daily 9pp Weeklies = 40 left for 5 days

Did you work out how much you can have for 0pp lol Not much I can imagine. I actually weighed 12g of cream cheese the other morning, as 13g would cost me 1pp. Haha

Haha we know all the tricks. I hid my chocolate magnums in a frozen pea bag before cos my hubby kept eating them, I'd go get one and there be none left. So I hid them all in the veg lol

Scoop it into a reduced calorie frozen yogurt container. They won't go near it lol!!

Wow! Toasters can be used for anything. I suppose they are just mini grills. I don't like cheese toastie in a toaster in them bags. I prefer them in a toastie maker :)

Tikka masala is the only creamy one I could manage but I'd have to ask for it to be spicy. What's that mango creamy one called....oh wow so creamy, sweeter than a Korma. The hubby can eat it all. Groas

I've seen this one in asda and tesco. I always wait for it to be on offer :) It's my favourite icecream ever

I LOVE that icecream lol!! I could eat it over and over again everyday and not get bored. Great food day! Good work only having half the pasta, not sure I could resist. :)

If you have plain coffee they have skimmed/semi/whole milk in those tiny cartons where you need about 5 of them. But I get it from the coffee machine. You pick all your options, milk type (soya is an option) coffee strength, if you want sweetener or sugar, then type of coffee. Then it makes it...

Him too. They make me feel really sick.

Sounds delish. I wish I could share an Indian with hubby as it's always too much, but he likes having a full one and I like spicy. So we get our own each and I usually get naan instead if rice. Have a lovely Saturday evening :)

Well I've made icecream with yogurt before, so maybe I could add that in with yogurt and it be super low pp

I'm not a huge fan if cheese, I do love salsa but don't have any, or the ingredients to make some.

I love PB icecream. I have an icecream maker but not sure where is start to make a healthy PB icecream

My treats Nachos - 0pp on F&H Pudding - 1pp on F&H

Day 14 Gestation - 30 weeks 2 days F&H Day Breakfast My best attempt at a F&H Morrison's breakfast. Skimmed Latte, Egg x2, Mushrooms, Tomato, Beans and a crumpet. I am too pregnant to worry whether to pp anything for how it was cooked. It was free in my eyes. Lunch Tuna and Cheese (3pp)...

Arghhhh all I wanna do is eat things I can't. I've made a nice pudding for tonight. I mixed some fat free Greek yogurt with a banana options (1pp) so it is nice and chocolatey. Then layered 1 x chopped banana and the chocolate yogurt mouse into a glass. It's in the fridge for later. I've eaten...

:) Breakfast was nice. I chose from the under 500 calorie section and all the ingredients were F&H. I'm too pregnant to care whether it was cooked in a F&H way. I am counting it as a F&H breakfast. Lol!! Latte with skimmed milk. Baked beans, tomato, mushroom, egg x 2 and 1 crumpet. How cool is...

When I got weighed for my first midwife appointment I was 3.5lbs heavier than I was at home. Breakfast and clothes = more than you think. Well done on a 1lb loss :)

What do people think about this.... On F&H you get 2 tsp of healthy oil per day. Which over a week is 14tsp = 18pp I haven't had a single tsp yet. I tend to cook without it. So I miss avocado as it high in pp and seems a waste on F&H. But an avocado is a natural fat that is healthy. An full...

I eat my evening meal about 7 though, so I don't really get hungry. I get my snacks during the day rather than all at once at night.

Erm dunno, about 9 maybe. We are both laid on sofas at moment. I'm in underwear as it's hot and baby just had a stretch and held her foot out for ages lol

Well I don't really have a treat tray, I love yogurt on fruit on an evening. It's great when you have not many points left and want some low pp. I've kind of gone off treats....I think I'm still in 'be good' mode and trying to eat quite naturally.

I Iove that ww wraps are free on F&H :) A meal idea is...a wrap as the base for a pizza. With tomato/pasta sauce base, all free toppings, then pp some cheese. The base goes really crisp and nice. If you grate the cheese then 2pp worth can go a long way. Your food sounds great!

They froze in less than an hour but I left them in longer as I wanted them as an evening snack. I was thinking if these worked with a low fat chocolate yogurt then they could taste quite good. I know it sounds stupid but something to pick on like these gives me more enjoyment than eating a yogurt.

I love potato waffles :) I loved them even more when I discovered the toaster could cook them in 4 mins on high. They came out perfect lol Then I stopped buying them. Now I am in control again I may buy some :)

Good Luck! And have a good Saturday!

The 12 week scan is amazing. Our little baby wouldn't keep still enough for them to get measurements so it went on for ages which I loved. Can't wait to see your scan photo :)

Don't think I'd ever order scrambled egg from a supermarket cafe lol! I'm too fussy for that.

Thanks Hun! They changed their menu about 2 months ago. I think that's the old one(as I think the new menu is blue??), but I imagine it's quite similar so cheers ;) I wanna try and have a F&H day so hopefully there will be something good. I'll let you know what I pick :)

I can't plan tomorrow as I'm going to Morrison's for breakfast before we so the shopping and I don't know the menu.

You just need a thin gap at top lol. Mine was tilted but they stayed the same shape lol I was thinking I could do yogurt coated fruit. Or sweeten the yogurt with sweetener.

Frozen Yogurt Drops, Frozen chopped banana and 0pp orange flavoured sultanas. Yogurt was 1pp, I used about 80g This was before I froze them: Used a sandwich bag with corner cut off to pipe yogurts onto baking paper.

I seem to like cold thighs at the moment. So I chopped up a banana, then less than 100g yogurt but 1pp. Or free on F&H I guess I could have used flavoured as well. I just made drops, used a sandwich bag as a piper and cut corner off. Then froze on a baking tray with a baking sheet. Then they...

Day 13 Gestation - 30 weeks 1 day I'm pp today, just so you all know I am not really following a pp amount as there isn't one while pregnant. I just decided to use weeklies for anything over 40pp. That way I won't go crazy lol!! I only doing a PP day as I wanted sushi :) and Chinese :)...

I just looked at the ones my husband has and they are 4 slices for 1pp too. I think chicken usually comes in chunks rather than slices tho, so it's normally by weight.

I dunno Hun as I've never had chicken slices. I'm not keen on pre sliced stuff. I 2nd that with the scales tomorrow....you may not get a true reading. As all scales are different. Plus if you usually weigh first thing before eating before a shower, then you go to boots and have clothes on, had...

Thanks Hun! Good Luck on WW! I will find your diary later and follow, I've just started week 3 so I also need inspiration.

Is that beetroot on your salad? I love beetroot. Sports day photos look cute :) I love when you have more points left than you thought. I'm like....hmm what can I have now. More options and usually a treat :)

All these treat trays and I haven't even started making my tea. My treat tray is in the freezer. I'll share a photo later. I have frozen chopped banana and frozen yogurt drops.

Mmm have a good BBQ tonight. I don't have bbq's but my mum does. She makes amazing dishes, has a separate rate BBQ for me and my sister as we are veggie, although I'm eating meat now. And she makes great cocktails. So looking forward to that when she does one. How's baby? Give it a few months...

Is the quorn 'chicken' free? It all looks lovely and you have done great this week, so whatever the scales say, be happy :)

Yes but then you wait for it to cool and put the rice vinegar in for the flavour. The rice was actually boil in the bag rice but I took it out as I was only making half.

Okay so this is my first attempt of making sushi ever!!! This is a starter for two, as we are having sweet and sour tonight. Well the husband will have sweet and sour with rice, I'll have veg instead if rice. So this is the kit I got reduced from £3.99 to £1.99 It included rice, vinegar...

Thanks Guys! I'm great!! 9 weeks 6 days until due date. Better than saying 10 weeks :)
