Thanks adebee!

It is stressful, mostly packed up, the rest can't be done until closer to the time!

I'm stressed because I was feeling the baby move loads and was really noticeable and now hardly anything. My placenta is anterior but high so maybe that's had something to do with it. Thinking the baby has possible turned around as it had been lying transverse (facing up) with it's knees tucked up in both my 12 week and 16 week scans!

I'm off to town in a bit to try and take my mind off things but debating whether or not to but a Doppler while I'm out?????

morning ladies! Hope you're all well xx.

Has anyone woken up of a morning very dizzy? I got up at 6 to let the dog out and went back to bed cos the room was spinnin. Slept another couple of hours and im still dizzy after cereal orange juice and a cup of sweet tea! Bit scary

Hi ladies... I'm pleased to report both babies are well but very very naughty... Sonographer couldn't take measurements of twin 2 at all and twin 1 was being very awkward and kept it's back to her the whole time so now we have to go back in 2 weeks to try and get the anomaly scan done properly... Oh well at least it's only 2 weeks till we see them again... Didn't get any pics this time as my hospital have started charging for them so gonna wait until next time...
Hope everyone is well XxXxX

Glad it went well! You're going to have your hands full! Lol xxx

100% recommend a Doppler. They're only £20 and it's reassurance on a daily basis. I have a routine now at bedtime I lay on the bed rub my oil into my belly n then put my jelly just below my bikini line n listen to baby for a few mins. It helps me to sleep knowing baby's ok. Great for a worrier xxx

I didn't buy one, still might though! I know if I couldn't find it I'd be worse!

Went to buy some maternity clothes! Bought some under the bump jeans and a few tops. My bump looks huge today!

1st bump pic (not very clear due to being in the changing room)!

Think I'm going to be the size of a whale by 9 months x

I think if I was earlier on in pregnancy I'd buy a Doppler but I heard the heartbeat last week and no matter how much I worry I have to remind myself that within a couple of weeks I'll feel baby every day so is it worth the money of a Dopple at this stage? Plus I know how much I'd worry if I can't find the heartbeat! The midwife took two mins to find a heartbeat the other day and that was awful! Lol
If you're really anxious your GP will probably let you go in and do a quick Doppler for you. Mine has twice haha just have to get through the next few weeks until I feel baby constantly!

I have one and love listening in on baby and find it rather amusing when bubba moves away when im trying to listen.

Hehe you're clearly more stable than I am! Lol I'd freak out constantly. Are you feeling kicks yet babe? I've only felt definite kicks once and had the odd fluttering that I *think* isn't wind haha

 

[Vickilou25]

Im same as u sarah had one stronger movement and a few flutterings can go days without feeling anything and those are normally the days i listen in xxx

So exciting that we are just a day apart from each other! Will be interesting to see where our pregnancies go and how similar or different they will be! Let me know when you start feeling regular kicks

I'm dizzy from time to time due to my blood pressure being low. Get cracking headaches as well..
Hope you feel better soon xx

This pregnancy is so different from my first.. Apart from the movement which happened at roughly the same time, everything else is different.
I'm huge for one (desperately need to go shopping like you've done Daley).. First baby took ages to appear.. A linea nigra has appeared over night which I never got with my first.
Just to name a few wonderful examples haha.. Won't bore you all to death..


Sammi: sorry your babies weren't cooperating today! Yay for the second scan
Daley: jealous of you're shopping haul.. In desperate need of some pants which is my goal this weekend!
Sozzy: sorry I missed your birthday! Hope baby moves for you again soon (if he/she hasn't done already).. Good luck for your scan tomoro!! I'm a bit gutted that I won't be having a gender scan so I watched a couple on youtube to get my hit haha..
Xxx

I had a ridiculously busy night at work on Wednesday, and now I can barely walk as I'm in so much pain with my hip. Whoever said you 'blossomed' during pregnancy was obviously a big fat lie teller.

 

[sozzy]

Thanks for the birthday wishes ladies.. Had a lovely day!

I recommend a Doppler.. It's been great reassurance, even now when I'm feeling movements I still have a listen morning and night.. Makes me feel happy

Glad all went well at yours scan sammi...

Sorry to hear your feeling so very anxious Daley.. I hope it passes for you soon so you can enjoy the pregnancy. Remember positive thinking

I'm starting to feel a lot better in my self this week.. But work is taking it toll, getting mega backaches and tightenings! Glad I only work part time.. Back to back cleaning jobs are knackering!

How's everyone this eve??

My little one is hyper lol xx

I had vertigo over the Christmas holidays, and what you're describing sounds a bit like a mild case of that? I know that low blood pressure/sugar can be two causes of vertigo in pregnancy, mines was completely unrelated and because of a viral infection in fact. But it was horrific and very scary!

Hope you feel better soon xx
