We've got a private scan booked for 11th Jan, purely because our local NHS trust don't tell you the sex, not long to go, can't wait!

The flutters I thought I could feel the past few weeks have gotten stronger, and when I was in the car yesterday, when I put my seatbelt on it felt like someone was tapping on my bladder. Most of my symptoms have died down now apart from severe bloating, in fact when I went to see my tutor at uni yesterday she commented on how big I was already, I just let her run with it rather than say it's mostly bloating, haha. The horrid eczema I had on my face has pretty much gone now, though my cravings are getting worse. Milk. I can't get enough. GIVE ME ALL THE MILK!

i still have quite a few symptoms that are more 'annoying' then anything.
still got massive problem with eating food, its really not fun but better then being sick so rather extreme fussiness then another round of hospital/HG.
i had a big meal yesterday laid down and was first time i felt stomach and saw stomach and thought wow looks like a serious bump, but ofc isnt there generally so was just bloating.
i had some flutters/bubbles but they arent consistant enough for me to believe its baby, ill have to wait. midwife remade point of 20-24weeks and after 24 weeks looking for a pattern.
All fun & games
all i really eat atm is a sandwich and main meal (whatever that is) cant stomach a lot of food anymore had a attemted gag to be sick today thinking about certain food.
Glad your pregnancy continues to go well.

im Definitely feeling our little sprout more and more, 21 weeks now but no pattern to it yet. But this morning for example, my dh leaves for work between 3-4am and I’m lying in bed trying to get back to sleep and I can’t because my tummy is doing somersaults! Then again now I’ve just woken up. It’s probably just because it’s the only time I’m still and quite enough to actually pay attention but it’s lovely nonetheless.

Anyone else have problems with food aversions? How do i get past it?
Literally so difficult!!

glad to hear all good with a little fidget, are you finding out the gender or having a surprise? Can’t wait to see more scan pics after your next one, I just love that pic of them with the hand under their chin, such a unique scan xx

 

[SugaryIris]

Merry Christmas ladies. Hope your all well. (Still in work! Tonight is my 6th night, one more to go tomorrow thank god really struggling) xx

oh no hun, have you managed to get your risk assessment yet? Will you be getting much of a break over the holidays at least? Xx

Well it’s Christmas tomorrow! Very surreal that after this one every Christmas will be completely different but hopefully so much better with a little one ripping open presents and being all excited.

We are flying to Lanzarote on Boxing Day to see in the new year, a couple of friends are coming out on the 30th. We booked it before I got pregnant, after our failed ovulation induction when we thought we would need one last hurrah before starting ivf in January. Now it’s our little baby moon. I’m excited but nervous to be travelling when pregnant.

Hi Sugar Yess last Xmas without baby which is mad! said to hubby have to get a pic of us together this year cause next year be very different. I dont know how 'aware' babies are of xmas at 7'ish months old? but either way ganna be different and great!

Small update got a great letter thru post today. low risk down syndrom 1/600. wasnt going to do much about it either way but is a relief and as far as im concerned no more testing for this.

That's a great idea, last year it was last year as Mr & Miss, this year there's a bump and next year baby will be 7 months! It will have been a crazy year for us to be honest, we got married in July, buying our first house in the New Year, and a baby due in May.

Fab news about the screening, mine came back as low risk too thankfully (I'm 37 and high BMI). Like you though, it wasn't going to make a difference to me really, it was just to mentally prepare myself for what could happen.

Does anyone have a bump yet? I've finally got something that isn't just bloating, it's like 80% baby 20% bloating. After feeling the baby move quite a bit the past couple of weeks I panicked yesterday when I didn't feel anything at all. I necked an icy cold drink this morning and got nothing still, but can feel something at the moment, think the baby is sitting quite high and my bloated stomach is in the way. Are we ok to post bump pics on this thread?

Hey.

Had my other scan today, and there was no heart beat. I'm absolutely broken.

Doing xmas with a brave face tomorrow for my son and then in to deliver the baby on boxing day.

Wishing you all happy and healthy pregnancies going forward and have a lovely day tomorrow xx

I’ve got a bit of a bump, I think mines quite high too. Starting to feel daily movements now.

I would love to see your ladies bump pics!

I’ve tried to upload one but it keeps putting it upside down!

I am so so sorry to hear this, I am honestly in shock after baby being seen only a few days ago. I am here if you need anything x
