For the small group of ladies still here from the original February bus from 2020.

Maybe 2022 is when we finally get our babies?

Ahh how exciting @paintfairy @MimiArm !
My movements have increased and it's obvious now but it also means I have bouts of anxiety when he is relaxing and I don't feel anything for a few hours!! I would do anything to fast forward the next 16 weeks!!
@paintfairy I know what you mean about them being subtle ...don't worry it gets more obvious haha. I'm waiting to see if I can tell when he flips over etc but not yet

Good luck with your 20 week scans! It's so much more detailed!

Exercise seems like a great plan @MimiArm ...something I haven't done in a very long time!! 😩

paintfairy · 24/02/2022 17:18

@MrsTwentyNine 18+4 over here and my 20 week scan is next Friday.

I think I look pregnant in tight things but yeah otherwise just fat. 🤣 I've felt odd movements but it took me a while to clock what it was as it's so slight. I expected greater things. 🤭 I imagine when it is a lot, I'll be cursing. I permanently also feel I need to wee. But not much else to report really. Other than it still seems bizarre this is even happening.

@MrsTwentyNine shooting pains not shopping pains 😂😂😂

MimiArm · 24/02/2022 11:52

@MrsTwentyNine Hey! All good here thanks. I'm 19 weeks now and have my 20 week scan on Tuesday of next week. Going for flu/whooping cough jabs tomorrow.

I think I've started to feel movement (I get random short shopping pains that comes in a series. I've been monitoring them this past few days and fairly sure it's baby doing it. I've an anterior placenta though which makes it harder to feel apparently!

Hahaha - I feel your pain. I look pregnant AND fat too. I'm thinking that by the time I get to 30 odd weeks I will be massive and very fat looking.

So, I found some pregnancy workout videos on YouTube and started yesterday. I do the 10 mins upper body workout before work and the 10 mins lower body workout in the evening. I figure that it I could at least tone my arms, I won't look so bad come summer when I'm wearing summery tops!

How are you feeling? Are you feeling lots of movements now?

MrsTwentyNine · 24/02/2022 10:01

How are we all doing lovely ladies ? I'm 24+1 so you @paintfairy and @MimiArm you must be around 20 ? Have you both felt any movement yet? 😄

@Juno231 how is second trimester so far ?

My bump has popped over the last week and I finally look "pregnant" and not just fat haha. I mean I probably look pregnant AND fat but I'll take that 😂

paintfairy · 13/02/2022 16:33

@MrsTwentyNine let's hope they are all right! I think I'll still be wary of buying too much girl stuff, just in case. 🤣

MrsTwentyNine · 13/02/2022 16:24

Yaaaayy! I'm so excited for you!!! congratulations!

Yesss just like you predicted we have 2 girls and 2 boys 💖💖💙💙

paintfairy · 13/02/2022 14:50

It's a girl! 💖

Really surprised. But now we have 2 of each on here! 😁

MrsTwentyNine · 12/02/2022 18:05

@Decaffe thank you! We certainly had to wait a long time but can't believe we all made it in the end and within weeks of one another!

@paintfairy can't wait to hear what you're having!

Going to a friend's today who had two kids (one of each) - she's planning on giving me a lot of her baby stuff so I'm super excited 😍

MrsTwentyNine · 12/02/2022 11:44

Decaffe · 06/02/2022 21:43

I know, I kept gasping all the way through then when @Juno231 posted I proper Grin GrinGrinGrin!!

MimiArm · 06/02/2022 20:36

@Decaffe Aw thank you very much ☺️ You couldn't make it up!

paintfairy · 06/02/2022 14:25

@MrsTwentyNine I'm July 24th now, officially. Exciting times!
@Decaffe thank you! It certainly seems to take long enough. 🤣

Decaffe · 06/02/2022 14:17

I’ve just read through this lovely thread and I wanted to say how fantastic it is that all four of you have your BFPs! Many congratulations! Flowers

MimiArm · 06/02/2022 13:36

@MrsTwentyNine it's crazy how it's worked out for us!

My date has been brought forward to 21 July, not that those few days make much difference!

MrsTwentyNine · 06/02/2022 12:43

@paintfairy @Juno231 tbh it wasn't that bad! Just felt a bit weak and a sore arm ...possibly very mild fever but I got over it the same day!

@Juno231 how exciting!! We are all quite close in dates ❤️ I can't believe how it's worked out!

So let me get the dates again...
Me: June 15
@MimiArm : July 24
@paintfairy: July 25
@Juno231: Aug 11

Ahhhhh!! This is going to be one special summer 🥰🤞🏽

@MrsTwentyNine poo, i hadnt considered our own reaction to the whooping cough vaccine.

I had my 12 week scan on Friday and was dated as 13+1 (my notes were 12+4 per conception) so the new due date is 11/08 now. Baby girl was doing headstands and kicking lots, it was sweet to watch.

Just booked myself in for my antenatal class - starting on the 24th May ☺️

paintfairy · 05/02/2022 18:35

@MrsTwentyNine oh no. I'm not looking forwards to that then. I naively thought it would be ok. 🤣

MrsTwentyNine · 05/02/2022 16:14

This February is very different however 😍

Feeling the side effects of my whooping cough vaccine today 😞

paintfairy · 03/02/2022 22:26

@Juno231 🤣 I was thinking that! We could end up being boy heavy! 🤭 Hopefully I will know on the 12th. I just hope the little sausage is cooperative! I'll be well annoyed if they can't see!

Also- its February again! Officially 2 years we've been here now. 🤣
