Wow, I'm impressed with the 4 our nap too!
Very cute Girlsway!
Not much to report here. Still not in nesting mode, but realistically we don't need to do much as bubs will be in with us for the first 6 months or so anyway, and we've still got all the gear from before, and everyone with older kids giving us their cast offs.
As for dreams, I always have girl dreams, but I think that reflects my wishes not my intuition. Or I dream I'm having kittens!
5 months scan this Thursday, I can't believe the time is flying that quickly. Plus can't wait to announce the news to the wider circle of friends. Praying it's still a healthy girl.
Ditto. Not the dreams but the nesting. The baby will be in with us until night feeds stop and then at some stage (prob when he's about one) he'll move out! Im not sure what we'll do about rooms, upstairs we've four bedrooms but and DD1 and DD2 share out of choice at the moment but if they stay together and DD3 and DS share when they'll little we can have a play room. And a guest room downstairs. Hmmm.Quote:

Good luck to those having scans this week. I am well but still so tired! I'm seeing my OB on tues so find out my iron levels which will be good, I'm sure thy'll be fine but it'll get DH off my back about that being why I'm tired (and not because I'm pregnant and have three small children and a part time job!).
Hope everyone else is well.
I think I have hit some nesting my house is abnormally clean lmao (not saying I'm a pig just keeping up with three boys and a lazy ass DH is very difficult for me). I usually have a nesting phase early on so I'm not surprised
Aghhhh..... I have absolutely no energy!! I cant wait to get some so I can nest! I love nesting and getting everything sorted each pregnancy, but so far Im too exhausted to think about it. My thyroxine levels were a bit high so specialist has had to adjust my thyroxine meds a bit, so Im hoping this is the reason why Im sooooooooo tired and soon I'll start to pick up a bit.
We've got most things already for the baby as my 18 mth old is still in the nursery it'll stay set up for the baby. He will move into DS1 room soon and bunk with him which they are pretty excited about! So once he is moved I can fill the drawers with all my newborn clothes etc (I have a selection of pink and blue newborn outfits I buy each pregnancy - enough to get me through the first wk) then I find once the baby comes I have a quick chance to pop out and get more of the gender outfits I need. I have that many friends having babies the clothes I dont use always gets gifted!
My anatamy scan is this Wed - I sooooooooo want to find out but DH doesnt! lol oh well! Im most eagar to find out that baby is healthy in there as I havent been able to feel movements yet as placenta is anterior - bummer!
So Im not the only one with a toddler... Am I the only one that is getting jabbed and kicked in the tummy? I constantly have my hands on my stomach to protect him but it makes me a nervous wreck
Yes WAG!!! I seem to be needing constant protection from my little ones!! Mostly the boys. I find bathing them a challenge, we've got a big deep bath and it takes a lot for me to lean over and reach them while making room for my bump! It's exhausting. This poor baby will come out with a few bruises I'm sure! Lol
salsa i have no energy at all it's awful, i'm taking iron too ;-0
wag - yes they generally try and sit on the bump i have two toddlers! monkeys......
bump getting stupidly big now ;-S
Yep i have toddlers too and my poor bumb always getting sat on and squished.
Took the boys swimming today and lost count of the times the boys kicked me in the stomach. I'm supposed to be getting kicks from the inside not the outside :rofl:
Feeling really stressed at the min, just started driving lessons last week and feel i cant look forward to the baby no as i've these hanging over my head every week :tissue: Sorry for the moan but drivings something i've never wanted to do and always put off.
I constantly get kicked or pounced on by my boys and I always remind them to be gentle. So much so that the other day, I told my 2yo DS2 to come down the stairs and he said: "No, hafta be ca-ful, baby in my tummy." Oh he cracks me up!
