    Why have I not seen these. I only did clothes shopping for DS a week ago. Maybe not all stores have them yet

    Penneys do maternity clothes?

    Not really, just the jeans, bands, knickers & bras. Not in a seperate section - but in their relevant area. So jeans are in the jean area etc :) Jeans are €15 (half band) and the bras are two for €10 I think?

    I bought the maternity bras there just to try them but as a bigger size I find there's no support and I feel like my boobs are at my knees :) struggling to find good support bras at the minute.

    Had scan yesterday and all is perfect thanks be to god and was very obviously a boy!!!!! :)

    I was lucky with J only sick the first 16 weeks and got sick once or twice near the end. Never felt sick then though. I'm hoping it's the same this time. Can't handle it specially with J nearly walking now

    My smallest monkey(11 months) is crawling but weighs about 24lb! The 2 year old only weighs about 28lb:)
    I was sick about once on the pregnancy with him but he destroyed my hips but according to the physio it was ligament damage as opposed to spd.
    I was very sick with both girls though.

    Yeah J is crawling and 8 months old. He's tryin his best to walk already a cut on his head from tryin in his cot :-(

    I'm thinkin another boy as feel similar in a lot of ways only difference really is this one is only getting really active now whereas J was mental from 17-18 weeks right till the end.

    Hey!

    All is well here, I am 25 weeks and baby is moving like crazy!

    Feeling really good, only gained about a stone, which is much less than when pregnant on my son at the same stage.

    Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas!

    I'm convinced every scales is different. Every time I get weighted its up then down then up again. And in my head already I'm huge.

    Good to know! I'm same weight as I was at 16 weeks so not going to complain if it's right, the less weight I put on, the better, because I'm on a serious fitness buzz after bubs is born to get skinny for the wedding :p

    Update on Penney's Belly/Bump Bands - they're FANTASTIC.
    SO much better than the bloody Mothercare ones. And less than half the price. They're really stretchy with no seams and they come up and over your bump. I'm defo purchasing more.

    Raging I wasted my money on the Mothercare yokes. They're really itchy on the inside.

    In other news, I'm covered in a rash - it got pretty sore on my belly there a few days ago. I bought an industrial sized tub of Silcock's Base, slathered it all over myself and it's more or less gone within a day.
    So now I'm evangelical about Silcock's Base - you can even use it as soap.

    Mention the rash to your midwife or gp as it maybe a sign of liver issues especially if you do not normally get them.
    I am tired,sick every so often but mostly fine:)
    back to school next week:( enjoying the lie ins!

    i finally told work today :)

    is anyone else struggling with walking? went out for my lunch time stroll but had to turn back after 2-3 mins. i was crippled with stitch like pain (round ligament) on both sides. i was practically bent double.

    the same happened this evening we went for our evening walk. had to lie down for about an hour until the pain subsided :(
