Babies due May 2018

[Arianna1]

There was a thread here on babies due in May but for some reason it’s been closed. Anyone is due then?

[LittleFox01]

I think it's because it had reached maximum posts.

I am due 8th May 😊 x

[McTootBlowsOnHisBagpipe]

I'm due 8th may too 😊

[LikeTheShoes]

10th for me!

[Arianna1]

What have been your biggest challenges so far?

[Girlwiththearabstrap]

I'm due the 11th. I've not really found any thing a challenge so far. Been very lucky to be symptom free like I was with my daughter. The most frustrating thing I've found so far is that I'm starting to tire more easily at my gym classes so I'm taking lower impact options far far earlier than i did with my last pregnancy.

How’s everyone’s general state of health ? I get a lot of pains of different kind in the lower belly almost every day and feel like I’m about to explode every time I eat , even a little bit.. am I the only one ?

[Fizzysx]

@Arianna1 i get the same pains I believe its just ligament pains as its when i move every now and again ive bad bad back pain to on the right side bottom of my bank. Can feel baby moving about so not worried.

[LittleFox01]

Ah @McTootBlowsOnHisBagpipe due date buddies!! Have you had your 20 week scan? Mine is on Wednesday 😊 we are having a little boy (I went for a private scan a couple of weeks ago).

I've been suffering with pelvic gidle pain 😞 especially when I am at work. I work in a nursery, so constantly picking up babies which are getting very heavy! Otherwise I've been feeling good. I've been having a lot of checks with the hospital due to a previous loss at 17 weeks, so have to have my cervix checked every two weeks, and there is a possibility that I will need a stitch 😞 but as long as my boy is okay I don't mind. Xx

Hi Ladies,

I'm due 19th May. We're a quiet group at the moment but come and join us in ante natal groups:

hi ladies, Im due 23rd May and can definitely say that i have not enjoyed one moment of this! I was naive and was hoping for the glowing - i suspect that the glowing is a lie! But counting down the days and realize how lucky I have been just to get here.

[McTootBlowsOnHisBagpipe]

@LittleFox01 I had my scan on Thursday just gone. We opted to not find out what we're having, but it was soooo tempting to. Was nice to see baby again though.

[sausagerollsrock]

I'm due 29th. Lots of tummy ache but I think it's just stretching. So worried something's not right with baby. No reason to believe it's gone wrong just paranoid after a 12 week mmc.
Get really full quickly, which isn't a bad thing considering I'm normally greedy .
I've got an anterior placenta so still waiting to feel baby.

Me im due my baby girl on 9th may. My first baby. My fiancè's 2nd. Can't wait! Starting to feel quite uncomfy now though especially when trying to sleep. Haven't felt any movement yet

[Fizzysx]

Im due 22nd may had an early scan Tuesday and we are expecting a boy. Been feeling baby move too.

[RosaBaby2]

Im due 5th May and had 20w scan last Tuesday, femurs measuring short so have to go back to check on them on the 3rd Jan. Not too worried at the moment but what will be will be.

[Newbiebaby1]

Congrats all, I’m due 25th May. Very excited

[Arianna1]

Same due date here!

[Misssmoo]

Due 17th may here...scan on wed and in two minds whether to find out as already have one of each eeekkk exciting x

[Arianna1]

How is the baby supposed to lie at 21 weeks? I have a feeling mine is horizontal, I feel the kicks only on the sides and in the middle very low; when I’m lying down he is definitely horisontal - can feel parts of his body to my left and to my right. Any wisdom on this subject anyone?

[Fizzysx]

Need some advice please if anyone has experienced it before?
The last two days I've had pins and needles down my arm literally from my arm pit to my wrist nothing helps ease it and its constant. It's literally driving me mental and making me very uncomfortable and doctors surgery is obviously shut for Christmas.

Anyone with any advice please let me know it will be greatly appreciated!

[MilfordFound]

@fizzysx how's your neck, any twinges? I get pins and needles in my hands and arms if I lie funny and something pinches in my neck.
You have my sympathy it's really horrible! Have you called 111? They may be able to get a drs appt. Even if drs surgery is shut there will be primary care delivered somewhere

[BlueRaincoat89]

@Fizzysx I'd second calling 111, they've been really useful for me in the past and got me an appointment with a gp in a hospital.

We're due 29th May. Opened the results of a private gender scan yesterday and we're having a girl. It's our first and we didn't have a preference, but it's nice to call her a she instead of it!

[Fizzysx]

@BlueRaincoat89 no neck twinges at all, if it doesn't ease up by later then i think i will give them a call. Thank you!

[L0ngg0ne]

May 23rd here!

[Arianna1]

Sorry about the delicate question, how is everyone's discharge? A lot, little, daily..? Mine are quite regular, up to 1-2 spoons as i could evaluate it..
