My uterus has been fully up for a week or so but the kicks are harder so I get kicks up high then to the side then down low or he curls like to the side of my belly button and the bump goes to the side it's quite odd feeling as the other day we could feel like head to rump.

More people have started coming forward and saying oh didn't realize you had a bump another colleague wanted to ask for weeks but I was always with people so she asked. A patient asked in the lift she was the first to ask and I did say the first person I was gonna say no I've just not been at the gym this week but I couldn't bring myself to do it to a patient.

I've got my 20w scan a week on Monday. The last of the bunch probably or is anyone else waiting on the 20w one?

I'm still waiting for my 20w, it's on Wed - will be 20+2. Time is going quickly now! X

I had my 20 week scan yesterday, but the little bugger was curled up tight so couldn't get all the measurements, the ones they could get seemed fine. The only thing that was if concern was a low lying placenta, this is my first baby so I've read up on it and I know it can move as the bump grows. Has anyone else had this?
I'm going back in a couple of weeks for all the other measurements, could the placenta move by then?

Not sure when you would expect it to move by as it will change as your uterus gets bigger so lots of time still, but you should get further scans to check its position further down the line xx

 

[Redhead]

Thanks scn. I'm not too worried at the moment as it's still early, and she didn't seem too concerned.

Bump's been quite obvious for almost a couple of months now, I've lost general body weight so it actaully shows more iykwim.

Will be 23 weeks on Wednesday (22+3 right now) so shocked at being almost at V-day as well, and that I've had both 12 and 20 week scans already, considering after previous experiences I hadn't really thought about the full journey it's going quite quickly!

Fun this afternoon though, the inner workings of the toilet cistern totally failed so DH had to go out (twice) to get new parts and fit them, never done it before! All this time I just had to lie on the bed so bump's weight didn't make me need to pee even more, it took him about two and a half hours lol

Wow Lander talking about V day is soooo exciting!! It is amazing how times flies past the 12 week scan. Had my scan last weds and posted a pic but need to add this one as the baby was pointing! Haha.

Don't know how you went 2.5 hours without the toilet. Thinking I can't go makes me need it.haha. think I'd have found a container...

Xx

 

[scn]

Haha awesome pic xx

 

[russellmuscle]

That's a cute pic. I wonder what this one will be doing at the 20w scan.

Jackson gave us the middle finger at ours and people thought it was a joke scan. No, he's my child and really that rude

Baby's pointing as if, keep that camera away from me!!

Ah see, I've worked on either a Reception or a Helpdesk for like the last ten years, Bladder is well trained to hold it until someone can come cover me hahah

 

[Lander]

Work finally did my 5 month risk assessment. They might give me extra 20min breaks morning and afternoon. Next one is at 7 months in mid June. 8 months would be two weeks before I'm off so they might skip it.

 

[Aragon]

Nice of them to finally do it eh Lander!!??
Extra breaks would be good though

My OH says I'm stressed all the time lately - just tried to do a Tesco online order to go to another address for a family weekend away but the address wouldn't update so I got mad. Seriously wouldn't anyone get mad at that.?? Is he trying to wind me up?? Urghhh

Redhead, I also have a low lying placenta, if I wasn't already having growths scans they would book me in for another scan. But it's supposed to move up as the uterus grows x

 

[russellmuscle]

I am spending part of my day off going to Neurology today, the joys. Been having bad migraines since being pregnant and moving to a much busier desk at work. They have settled for weeks but we all know how surprising they can be.

Mainly just hoping for a bit better management than cocodamol if possible.

So that's my afternoon. Morning will be chilling and cleaning.

Hope you are all OK.

Yeah, that's what she said, did they give you any advice?, she didn't seem concerned and never told me not to do certain things, but then I stupidly googled it and people are saying that I shouldn't be having sex (not a big issue anyway haha!) and resting more, I work in retail and I'm very hands on.

 

[Redhead]

Aragon, that would annoy me too!! My hubby told me I was getting stressed at the TV the other week.. I was just being vocal! Lol

 

[sansk]

Hi Girls hope you are all well, I have been really busy lately just getting to catch up now x

It was my birthday on friday and my sister got us a gender scan as a pressie we had our scan on Saturday with some family present, still shocks me how this little person is inside and so active and I don't feel a thing, baby was crossing it's arms and sucking it's thumb and using my insides as a trampoline I could see it's legs pressing against me and bouncing off lol!! We also had the 21 week scan on Monday and all is well baby was hiding 'his' head in my pelvis it's a 'him' lol whoop! The Sonographer was thinking I would have to come back but I was praying otherwise as the pain during this scan was severe I was on verge of tears it hurt that bad and after 15 minutes she had to stop to give me a minute, also when the bed was tipped upside down and I was laying flat I guess baby was laying on main artery and I felt faint and thought I was going to vomit and pass out lol the joys....I can't believe how fast this is going in ekkkk!!

Did anyone else know in their heart all along it was a specific gender? I was that sure I bought a few boy things to wrap up for my aunt to see after the gender scan as she couldn't be there I felt bad then thinking what if am wrong and it's a girl the poor wee thing aha
