****** February 2018 Mummy's thread. Hello tri 2 *****

[MrsLaw]

Yes Sebbiesmum! This week I cried whilst watching xfactor, and then laughed so hard at a funny video I was sent and that pushed me to full blown tears too?! I’m sure my hormones are playing up as I’ve been getting more spots as well.

 

[Selphie]

Sebbiesmum I'm the same, I can be very sensitive anyway but I'm so much worse! I cry at everything! Even if I think OH is being off I cry, before I wouldn't have given two hoots but now I'm really hormonal and my anxiety is worse. In Tri 1 I felt more ragey but now I'm a sobbing mess at the drop of a hat

Anyone getting hiccups yet?

It's cute but it's a bit uncomfortable!!

 

[CARNAT22]

Have had them a few times, I hate having hiccups myself so have never been keen on having them in my belly (both the other kiddies were really hiccuppy in the womb!)

I'm actually finding the movement a bit weird at the moment, I am feeling a lot of pulsating and as well as hating hiccups, the other bodily thing I hate is pulses / heartbeats. Look forward to proper jabs and kicks and rolls lol.

 

[CARNAT22]

Ps: I know I'm weird and pulses / heartbeats are a GOOD thing

Hi guys! Hope you are all ok xx I'm struggling with hormones and emotions too, feels no pretty stressed out and getting wound up easily.. have to try and take deep breaths!

On the plus side, saw the right side of my tummy move for the first time last night was amazing!! Then again. Today when I was in work sat at my desk!! Hope it does it again tonight so I can show hubbie xxx

Emotional here too. Even the simplest things can set me off.

Baby is on the move daily now but trolling Daddy. 3 times I've been feeling gentle kicks with my hand. The minute Rob puts his hand on it stops.
Saw the first outside movement this evening. Again Rob looked and it stopped.

Scan tomorrow. Nervous as before but I really want to know blue or pink. Eek

Haha TS same here! Every time I've got martin to put his hand there it stops it's almost like they are playing with us 😀I'm sure he thinks I'm imagining things!!!

Good luck with your scan tomorrow!!! Can't wait to hear your news xxx

 

[TORino]

I still have a hideous rash on my leg. It’s so itchy. I have itchy feet as well, so no doubt I’ll be getting liver function tests for obstetric cholestasis tomorrow at my 25 week midwife appointment.

 

[CARNAT22]

Hope it turns out to be nothing serious TOR.

I'm not seeing MW until 14th November (almost 29w). Last appointment was August!! Although I have GTT on 7th November and they'll do my 28w bloods but this is just at blood clinic - albeit the clinic is within the antenatal dept.

[TORino]

I’m only seeing midwife because of this pappA thing - had to have an appointment in between 20-28 weeks. I hope it’s nothing too!

Scan done. I'll upload pics later.
Took nearly an hour because baby curled into a ball and wouldn't cooperate.
It took 20 mins alone to measure the heart because it kept putting it's arms in the way and rolling over.

All is perfect and present. Everything working as it should.

However... team green.
Just to finish the awkward it kept it's legs shut haha.
Roll on due date.

Aww brilliant photos TS!!! Haha baby was being awkward!! Great pics tho so clear!! At least you will still have suprise to look forward to ❤️❤️

Torino hope you get an answer to your itching and all is ok? Xxx

 

[TORino]

Hello baby!! Lovely pictures ts xx

No answers.. she reckons stretching skin, I’m not so sure how much my calf would be stretching at this stage

I have to say if I’m still itchy in 3 weeks to test for obstetric cholestasis then as it’s apparently more apparent from 27 weeks.

 

[ts2573]

Thanks. I was in awe the whole time. I can't believe how much we got to see.

Earlier on in the week baby was kicking lots but since last 2-3 days he has rarely kicked.

Should I be worried?

Hi just trying I get that too, I was only mentioning in work earlier that baby has been kicking lots but nothing today ..I'm 23 weeks and it seems to happen in cycles, every few days it changes from all to nothing.. if you are worried maybe a call to your midwife for some reassurance would be a good idea? Xxx

Hey, sounds like its normal?

I do get the odd movement to say, "hey i am still around" but no major kicks.

since my post above, I've been on a google marathon and most comments suggest its very normal.

Apparently it's more important to monitor from 27-28 weeks?
