Fab, is there a list going of due dates ect? I have only recently joint so sorry if I have missed it?

Claireb2203 · 04/04/2019 13:04

There was on the previous threads, hopefully someone might add it to here as I don't know how too
I'm due 3rd October

OP posts:

fluffyunicorns86 · 04/04/2019 13:24

I am due the 7th October

Hope everyone is ok today?

Dyra · 04/04/2019 13:35

I think the due date list we do have is hopelessly out of date now. Think we stopped doing them within the first couple of pages in the second thread. Guess we could make a new list.

As for the uniform question from the last thread, I'm quite fortunate in that I wear scrubs. So I just pick out the correct size for the day!

Dyra · 04/04/2019 13:39

Oh the list is forming! I shall aid it along.

Highlight, Copy and Paste as you will.

fluffyunicorns86 · 04/04/2019 13:53

anyone any advice on how to hide a bump? I know is a strange question but I have certain people I dont want to know at the minute with my history

GinMama1 · 04/04/2019 13:57

Picking up from the last thread...
@Nextchapter19 I have weird spots on my chest which I'm blaming on pregnancy hormones. My skin is generally quite dry and itchy as well.

@Claireb2203 no nothing except eating really! I'm into watermelon at the moment.

Claireb2203 · 04/04/2019 14:03

@Dyra thankyou for the list

@fluffyunicorns86 Baggy t shirts is all ive found to cover up, not very flattering.

I second the itchy skin, especially my legs

secretlyhermione · 04/04/2019 14:05

I have my scan in exactly one hour and half, so will able to give a more precise due date then. Hoping everything is ok, pretty excited to see the little bean again!

fluffyunicorns86 · 04/04/2019 14:14

Thank you @claireb2203 I was thinking that and baggy jumpers aswell I think I read somewhere scarves aswell

Peacock14 · 04/04/2019 15:26

Hiya! I didn't join in the last thread but want to on this one. I'm due approx 25th.

Woolly17 · 04/04/2019 15:27

@fluffyunicorns86 oversize shirts are good, especially if you team it with slim trousers. Or very a-line dressed, teamed with a bit of a heel. I manged to look pretty impregnant till about week 20last time.

Peacock14 · 04/04/2019 15:27

@secretlyhermione uh very exciting! Hope you get on ok

fluffyunicorns86 · 04/04/2019 15:38

thank you @woolly17 will look into all these ideas

fluffyunicorns86 · 04/04/2019 15:51

also for those who have had your 12 week scans did you get told where your placenta was? I didn't but I really want to know where it is

Dyra · 04/04/2019 16:00

I didn't find out the placental position either @fluffyunicorns86, and I forgot to ask. It's also not in my notes, which makes me think it's something that wasn't checked. But then there's still loads of time for it to grow and move

Peacock14 · 04/04/2019 16:03

@fluffyunicorns86 is the position important then? Naive as this is my first baby!

fluffyunicorns86 · 04/04/2019 16:10

Thank you @dyra I forgot to ask also ad not on my scan or in notes got another scan at 16 weeks make ask then.

@peacock14 it can either be posterior (at the back) or anterior (at the front) just really want to know

Dyra · 04/04/2019 16:13

As for red spots, I swear my psoriasis is getting worse. Fortunately it's not it's not too itchy, but I swear I'm developing new constellations of plaques on my skin that weren't there a few weeks ago.

Hiding a bump..... well....... I'm successfully hiding anything resembling one under a thick layer of fat atm. But I would not recommend that tactic to anyone else.

Claireb2203 · 04/04/2019 16:14

I never got told about mine either, maybe they do it on 20 week scan

OP posts:

Dyra · 04/04/2019 16:20

It's also low or high as well as anterior or posterior. Low means it's closer to the cervical os, so you might develop placenta praevia, or bleed a little.

Forgot about low and high 🙈

GinMama1 · 04/04/2019 17:46

Anterior means you are likely to feel movement later. Mine was written on my notes last time but no one actually mentioned it to me.

secretlyhermione · 04/04/2019 17:52

Scan went well! Measured at exactly 12 weeks today so three days further along than my previous calculations. Due 17 October. Baby was happy and healthy and sucking his/her thumb! Heard the heart beat which was amazing :-)
