Half way through first pregnancy

Hello mumsnetters!

I'm officially half way through my first pregnancy and I can't believe how quickly it's flown by!

Who else has their anomaly scan coming up? how do you feel about it?
I'm really looking forward to finding out the gender of my baby, but at the same time, I'm slightly anxious that the sonographer might find a problem.

I've been feeling my first kicks too, it's such an odd feeling to have a little human kicking around inside you, I can't get over how much baby moves!

I'm also starting to show a bit now; before my pregnancy, I naively thought that your belly just popped out not long after conception lol. It's taken 20 weeks for me to even get a slight bump :(

Does anyone else have their 20 week scan coming up?

22 weeks here so just over the half way point. Seems like I've been pregnant forever though! I still wouldn't say I've got much of a bump. Hubby thinks it popped out more this weekend and I'm looking less like I ate all the pies and more like an actual pregnant person. Just can't wait to actually meet the little guy but that's ages away!!

Woo! It's exciting, isn't it? :D Tomorrow morning I get to find out (if baby is in the right position)!

bippitybopityboo - What d'you reckon you're going to have? I have a sneaking suspicion that mine's a boy!

socktastic - Have you and your OH thought up any names for your little one yet?

We've had some thoughts, from the sublime to the ridiculous. But I think we'll have a few names in reserve and decide once we actually meet the wee man!

I'm 24 weeks and it has really flown by. Baby kicks harder as the weeks go by! Good luck with your scan - enjoy!

Hi again everyone!

Scan was brilliant! Everything was completely fine and baby is developing normally.

Also...

It's a boy!

Hello ladies. I am going to guess you are due July. There is an anti natal forum you might like to check out. A chatty and sweet bunch of ladies.
