Born Oct/Nov 2015

Hi All!

Went to OB/GYN today, can't believe it is 17 weeks already. Due to my c section that I must have, we could set the date... so I will be a first time mommy on the 9th of October. I even booked my bed today. All is good, got some meds for my sinus and allergies.....

I also battle with my clothing now, still fit into my jeans, but my tops are a problem, they don't fit over my (.)(.), my bump is only starting now... very little, so way to small for maternity clothes, hubby said he will give me some money to go shopping before the wedding so that I can have some new clothes for the honeymoon. So so sweet of him.

Wedding plans are coming on nicely. Everything is almost done, think all arrangements are 95% finished. Only the dress now!

How are all of you doing otherwise?

@Zaza- it was so scary, this happened in the early hrs of the morning, and we were away from Jhb, the nearest hospital was about 100km away. so yaa, it was the most terrifying experience. But the dr was very good and took good care of us. When i saw blood my heart just sank, but i am glad we are well.

I cant wait for the trimester to be over. Maybe i will relax and start enjoying this pregnancy. our families are very supportive though, i just need to relax and take it a day at atime.

@HoopVirDieBeste- how are the wedding plans coming along? I bet you cant wait.

@ lillyr Glad you and baby are ok, hope you taking it a little more easy, I'm sure the bleeding must have been terrifying.

I also find at 11 weeks I can't button my jeans, but not big enough for maternity pants or that maternity belt that you use on existing clothes.

But my tights and dresses seem to help me most to relax the slight bump or bloat lol.

You gave me an idea to look out for jeggings.

hi ladies,

sorry for the silence. Been on bedrest for the whole week last week because i had started bleeding All is well now, and baby is doing fine. My next appointment is next week monday.

@Candypops- I am only 11 weeks 5 days, and already not fittig in my clothes. Yesteday i had to go and buy a few jeggings because at least they are not as tight as the normal jeans. YOur pics look great, I cant wait for my 4d

ladies, how are you doing?

Hello Mommies

Sorry things at work and home life have been crazy.

I loved logging in now to see all the photo's

I literally can no longer fit into any of my pants. But at that akward stage where maternity clothes are too big but my normal clothes just make me depressed now!haha Opting for tights and then dresses and stockings for work.

My hubby and I decided to do a 4D scan and went of Friday. I am currently 16 weeks at the moment and was the best thing seeing the baby move and more importantly that our baby is healthy. We found out we are having a boy so really excited that we know the gender. But more importantly the scan showed all our baby's organs are functioning properly, we at a low risk for Downs Syndrome, no cleft palat, baby is growing like he should. Was amazing to see how much information they could actually tell from the 4D. Can't wait to do another 4D scan at the end of my pregnancy. But that one will purely be to see the facial features of our boy!

I cant believe how time is flying though.

Have any moms felt the baby kick yet?

Have a lovely Monday!

Hi ladies

I hope everyone had a good weekend and the mommies got spoilt yesterday!
Even though it was my off weekend, it was quite a rush.

I went looking for maternity clothes yesterday, but it seems that it's bit of a challenge to find them. I ended up buying loose-fitting, long tops and tights. Anybody else had to do some wardrobe updates yet?

@Tonic My SIL sent one down for me to use (on loan). I tried it out but couldn't pick up LO's heartbeat. Didn't try for very long though and the battery warning sign was showing... She forgot to pack the charger so I need to see if I can sort something out for it. Apparently it can take a while to find the heartbeat, some women said it took 30 minutes But the one I'll be using is the AngelSounds which is supposed to be quite good.
