UK SMOG Wannabes - March

Oh indigo, congrats on your little boy! So sorry you didnt hear girl and glad you are feeling ok so far. Oh what it must be like to have a sensitive husband! I seriously think we should advise any new smoggers to sway using the boy method as the girl method really doesnt seem to work!

[deaks66]

ladies, just wandering how much you all suffered with morning sickness? I havent had much and what i did have seems to be disappearing...much like it did with my boys. Have you expereinced the same as with your other pregnancies ? inglewood/kell has yours been much different considering you are carrying a different gender?

Deaks I'm dreading the puppies going
The couple who came tonight of course loved them and are having one of the boys, I've told oh I'm going to be a mess when they all go! But on another note 6 is hard work! When they are out which is alot now, they seem to take it in turns to either pee or poo in different areas of the room, you gotta be quick off the mark as well or you end up with pee paw prints over the flooring! Fun times! Lmao! We are keeping one of the puppies ourselves tho.

As for morning sickness, well I never had it with the boys just had back ache.
This time I was quite bad, it lasted until around 14 ish weeks but I really didn't want to pin hopes on differing pregnancies just because I knew the possibility of having another boy was very real even with my pregnancy being so different.

Just popped on as have had no laptop for a few days, Indigo, congratulations, sorry you didnt hear girl though, what is it with the majority of us smog wannabes?? Did you do IG sway? Im wondering now if I should have done the IG way, but guess Id always wonder if the opposite would work if it didnt this time.

Had a nice time with my boys today, beginning to accept boys is all I will have, maybe its because I have a very low opinion of all men in my family so I am sent boys to learn to love boy ways and help them become the best males they can.

Indigo ~ hugs Hun xx Congrats on your little man I know you felt the baby was a boy but it doesn't always make it any easier. So pleased your hubby is there for you, as we all are too xx I use to look at mums with two boys and feel sorry for them.....now look at me....FOUR!!!! I suppose that's why I always think people feel sorry for me, but I do get lots of nice comments too, obviously along with the horrible ones but I just don't tolerate them anymore. I'm still in shock I will be a mum of four......I remember having a conversation with my friend when I was in my early twenties and before I had children that I would do gender selection if I had to as I was definitely having a daughter......if only I knew what I was saying!!!
I'm sure you wll enjoy DS3 just as we have.....my DS3 is a character and very loving, joy to have

Hi all,

Indigo have been thinking of you all day. looking for ward to hearing your news!

Babymad, been thinking of you as well. Sorry you are struggling healthwise and also with gd, i really hope the next few months go super speedy so you get to hold bubs in your arms and then alot of these feelings will float away. Hopefully the spring time will help and being outside in sunny weather is great at lifting spirits! Iam 10 weeks this friday and have my scan booked in for april 11th! Excited and nervous about the whole nub thing. Think i might avoid that area and stay in my bubble a bit longer!

Inglewood, how on earth your back is coping i dont know! i have never carried more than a 7lbs 2 baby plus placenta and that was bad enough! Roll on 2 weeks!

Maybe, i cant believe you mil is doing this to you again!!!! didnt she get the message last time!! I definately wouldnt let her stay or at least stick to the 7 day rule and then say she has to stay in a hotel for the rest of the time. I dont think thats unreasonable at all considering! You have to make the most of this precious time.

Kell, your ds is so cute and im glad all is going well with the pups. I have idea how i would let go of my dogs pups if she had ever had any. im so sentimental! My boys would love that crate too!

Hi everyone else. Am hoping that when i click post that indigo will have been on here!

Wow 10 weeks Pleased you are not suffering too much. All my pg's have been the same, bloody awful
Will you be finding out at 16 weeks?
How's the house situation?

[Babymad]

Dh has 6wks off thankfully, a combination of Annual leave, Parental leave and dh works 6 days a week for 5 wks then gets a week off, so all that combined is 6wks! Thank god!

Sorry to hear ur not doing so well, can say I know I'd be the same, esp if 2 boys were on the way! Still not 100% convinced girls, won't be till they are here. Wish there was a way of helping, but know I can't say or do anything. Just hoping u start to feel better all round soon. Have u bought much for baby?

Yes, I've been buying bits, and the boys get excited when I show them what I've bought which is sweet. Still can't help looking at the girls clothes though....was looking on John Lewis' website and the summer dresses are beautiful, why I do it to myself I will never know! I am very girly and love feminine and girly things......so why four boys I will never know!

[deaks66]

Babymad, I am the opposite, I have NEVER dared look at girls stuff. I put my head down in girls isles and I wont even let myself look at the girls stuff in the boden catalogue, I'm too scared of how it will make me feel! Just remember, a daughter wouldn't wear that stuff for long! That's what I tell myself anyway! Sorry pregnancy makes you suffer so much. I have to say, this is my easiest pregnancy so far. With both my boys I had mild nausea but I remember lots of food aversions and also smell aversions with ds2. With this one, nausea has also been mild but I haven't had any food/smell aversions, in fact I want to eat a lot! Not sure about finding out as i dont want to stop enjoying being pregnant. Plus my best friend is having her baby girl in may and I think I'd rather find out after that in any case. The house situation took a full turn. We had a great offer on our place, had an offer accepted on the farmhouse and then I realised how much I love where I live and I love being near everything with little ones. Plus ds1 starts school in sept and the village school near the house said for the first time ever they are oversubscribed and couldn't guarantee him a place. In the end there were more negatives to positives. It was a real learning process though so I'm glad we went through it!

Kell, I'm sure the puppies getting bigger and being a lot to handle must mean handing them over is somewhat easier. I remember just having one puppy to look after! Seriously I think babies are easier! But hose little faces....awwwwww! Will you keep a girl then? We chose a girl because boy airedales can be really big, mind you I think ours is bigger than most girls! But seriously, her dad was like a lion! Fun times indeed!
