Morning Cheryl, I loved that 'Alien' feeling of them jumping around inside me lol. I was one of the extremely lucky ones and sailed through both pregnancies, was never sick and rarely tired. My only problems were the last month when carpal tunnel meant I couldn't feel most of my fingers and 18 years later I still haven't lost the baby weight

Loves this site!
Afternoon all.
We found out baby is a pink one from the scan but im not 100% convinced until i see it on the 4d scan again. They got it wrong with oliver and confirmed he was a boy at the 4d. Only got to wait til the 22nd though.
Im almost certain as we went for scan and she said "i think, but cord is slightly in the way" then i had to go out for a cold drink and a walk and went back in. She said "i can see its a girl now", then i asked how certain she was and she said almost 100%. She then froze the screen on 3 lines instead of a willie! Lol.
I had to go back 2wks later and saw a different lady. I asked her and she said "i think its a girl, did i get it right, is that what you were previously told?"
Its only because i was told by 2 consultants (at the same in the same room) that oliver was a girl then found out different at the 4d. I think i will be certain when thats done.
Lisa there is hope for me then lol. Im already planning my diet and Mark has said hes going to do whatever i do, so he can help me! How lovely is that. Not sure what one im going to do though as I want to feed so not sure which diet i can do.
Its good as although im loving every min of this pregnancy (even the bad points) i cant wait to get my body back to the weight it once was lol. Ive got carpel tunnel too, and bad spd im under the physio and have to use crutches all the time.
Why was giving blood so bad Bren? Well done you for doing it though hun.

What is spd? sounds bad if you have to use crutches!!!
Giving blood was bad for 3 reasons
1 - they were running way late
2 - nurse gave me a grilling for taking a potassium tablet for my jumpy legs - horrible woman
3 - don't know if I had got so stressed that it was refusing to come out by this stage but the flow kept stopping and blood alarms and red lights kept going off - ended up they had to massage my arm to get it out! Think they had put the needle in too far and in the wrong place because I could feel it and I never can usually. Bruise is in a way different place to where it normally is. If it was my first time I would never go back! But I know it is usually ok so will still carry on giving.
