As some of you know oxsarahxo sadly lost her baby girl Jessica Charlotte Reay hours after giving birth. We are arranging a star to be named after Jessica and a lantern for her resting place from all of us. We also thought it would be nice to make a contribution to Sarah & Matt so they can use it towards flower arrangements, head stone or resting place arrangements. If you would like to contibute please PM me for details.

I'm Currently Feeling: | Shape of Your Bump....Boy Or Girl? My mum has always harped on about whatever the shape of your bump is can tell you what you are having (she is an old wives tale master, my mother!)
So has this turned out to be true for any of you?,
When I was pregnant with my daughter my bump was all round and i put weight on almost everywhere!
This time I just have a bump ( all out front) and according to my mum that means a little boy!
I will find out on saturday whether this is true, but has this been true for any of you so far? xxxx  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Ive got a pink bump and im just a really neat small bump on the front and ive not put barely any weight on. When i was carrying my lil man i went huge i carried weight everywhere and my bump was huge. I think everyone is different. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Two friends of mine have had their daughters and their bumps were all out front - one of them looked like a basketball, the other a watermelon (tummy-wise). I'm having a boy and only gained weight (BASICALLY) in my belly, all outfront and my belly looks like a soccer ball. 
I think it's different for everybody. |

| I'm carrying everything in front, didn't put any weight on anywhere else. It's a classic boy bump and yes, I'm having a boy!
Apparently, the same belief is here in China, too. I went to the post office the other day and the lady selling me my stamps looked at my belly and said: "Oh, you're having a boy!" |
