Hey Mel I agree my tummy is quite bloated, prob just extra fluid smile Aw I know what u mean about your daughters bday being close to when bubs might arrive. Im actually hoping to have baby in July as my daughter is a June baby, but I had them both at 39 weeks so thinking bubs will be born end of June.
Have u told your older kids that Mummy is having another baby? Bet they will be thrilled! We are telling my hubbys parents tomorrow, bit nervous actually as everyone thinks we were stopping at 2 hehe!
Hey, Oh good luck telling the in-laws. I am sure they will be thrilled with another grandchild on the way. With my last 3 pregnancies we told everyone straight away. My kids were too little to understand what was really going on back then. This time I am being a little more cautious as my eldest is in yr 1, my middle one almost 5, and my little girl is 3. They all really understand this time and always ask for another sibling. I know they will be thrilled but i just don't want to have to explain things to them if things go wrong. A Mum at school told her kids last year and then miscarried and her 5 yr old was devoustated about couldn't comprehend it and started blaming himself. He asked her if the baby would still be in her tummy if he hadn't been naughty. Bless him! This time I am going to hold off until I get the all clear from the obst. I have my first appoint on the 24th of Nov and I am guessing a scan won't be far after that and then we will tell the kids. I would love to tell them now though!! it's killing me waiting
sad
The only person I have told is another Mum who I still keep in contact with from Huggies. I met her through these forums when we were pregnant with our daughters. She only lives in the next suburb so we catch up from time to time. I know she won't tell anyone. I am thinking about telling a good friend of mine tonight because we are going shopping just us. I havn't decided yet..but she has gone through everything herself and would be a good support.
Have fun telling everyone though!! I can't wait to!!
