Indeed hun and most times early movements are felt as your in tune with your body and feel unusual things..... I'm that bad I even feel when I release an egg for ovulation lol xx

Haha I'm the same!! I feel everything. I can feel diarrhoea an hour away! Lol

Thanks for support about my friend btw I understand she's frustrated but at the same time she can make it much harder for herself by being bitter or expecting too much sensitivity from other people.
Good job my little mental bubble is keeping me all comfy and locked up tight, it would take ALOT for me to start to feel irked. The shrug is fast becoming my signature move this week lol

I'm super uncomfortable too, hardly sleeping at night. Sore hips

Yep I'm the same with the whole bowel thing too!

I've started to get right hip pain along with groin pain think it might be the round ligament pain, I've never had this before hope it doesn't get worse .

We are all here to support eachother hun so don't worry you just take care xxx

 

[Nicky78]

Yes Nicky i'm so uncomfortable at night its ridiculous - and no matter what I wake up every hour or so on my back with tingly hands and feet!

Yeah lots of pins and needles in my hands too! The whole belly feeling like this is new to me, the joys of pregnancy!

 

[Ams1985]

I think the weirdest part of sleeping now is that if my side pillows move away I feel like my little bump is pulling to the side its horrible! You ought to see the state of me at night, got a pillo wunder my head, one for between my knees and one either side to try and stop me rolling onto my back. Lucky hubs!

 

[3lilmonsters]

Haha I've got one of the snake pillow things as I too feel my tummy pulling and it make me feel sick so you not the only sexy one in bed lol xx

 

[mrs nel]

My goodness what a chatty bunch you have been today! I lost track of who is having what! Pixel you're having a girl? andccongratulations to the other mum having a boy! sorry hun I forgot your name.
Well I now have 17 hours until my scan. Pretty nervous and exciting all at the same time!
Xx

 

[3lilmonsters]

Yeeey Lynne can't wait to see your pic xx

 

[Gillyboos]

Looking forward to seeing your scan Lynne, exciting times.

I'm with you girls on the tummy thing, the weight of my bump if I'm on my side is horrid.
Had a very wiggly bubs today, loving feeling more movement. Keep referring to baby as 'he', it's really going to be a surprise if we have a girly! Xx

 

[mrs nel]

Il be posting my snaps asap! Im beginning to worry a little, il be 20 weeks tomorrow and my bump isn't really big enough to give me problems. Hope its ok!
Xx

 

[mrs nel]

What do you really need for a baby? So far iv thought of:
* pram
*Nursery furniture
*Bath
*Crib
*breast pump
*Steriliser
*Bottles
*Monitors

Then all the obvious things like clothing, nappies and toiletries.
Xx

 

[keeptrying]

Mrs Nel I have an entire word document dedicated to that! I'm might just pop it on here actually. Hope it helps xx

 

[Tommo]

That all sounds good! I can't even remember what you need for baby lol we got far too much stuff with our son that we didn't even need the half of. Electric this, automatic that. Keeping basic this time!! lol

 

[3lilmonsters]

Ear thermometer, changing mat x

 

[keeptrying]

Oh and very best of luck with your scan! Are you staying team yellow? xx

 

[Tommo]

For mummy, I would also recommend industrial sizes mattress protectors as well as the biggest pads you can find! Just for first few days/weeks when the bleeding is heaviest.

 

[3lilmonsters]

I was going to express but I'm not going to now my eldest 2 were formula fed (I was only 17/18 when I had them) and my youngest was express fed for 2 months and I've found he is always ill he gets coughs colds upset tummy so easily where the other 2 don't so that's my only explanation lol xx

 

[keeptrying]

Ahh thanks Tommo I will add that now there isn't half a lot to get is there?! xx

 

[mrs nel]

Thanks ladies. Yep il be team yellow!
Xx

 

[MrsPod]

Oh my gosh, so much to catch up on! So, umm, baby A and keeptrying congrats on the baby boys, pixel congrats on the baby girl! Hope I've got that the right way around.

Also completely agree with 3lm - I was told when I was 19 that I couldn't conceive. 13 years later, here I am. In the meantime, I've gained 2 nieces, a nephew, 2 Godchildren and countless friends have had children. Every single time I've been kind of sad for me but I'd never let that show, and I'm always genuinely happy for them all. In fact, 2 years ago I was in the same position as your friend - my brother expressed a hope for a boy that time. It really is more a reflection of their own mental and emotional state than you. Hugs.

I've also had groin and right hip pains this week. It's worse if I stand still for a while, so try to keep moving.

And, mrs nel, we have a whole 3 page long excel document of things we need - though we have broken it down to lots of different items - socks, legging type things, sleepsuits, bodysuits, etc - rather than, for example, just 'baby clothes'. It's also gotnew prices next to everything so we can look for bargains now!

Thank you for this!! Amazing.

Lynne I'm also with you on the no bump thing - panicking now. Absolutely no signs or symptoms whatsoever :-/ GIVE ME THE HEARTBURN!

Congratulations on the baby girl Pixel x x
