Anyone just started their dreaded 2WW ? 👀👋🏼

@EllieWalesawww no way, all because of a little foot haha! Well I suppose you get another scan but this would have tested my patience after waiting! My 20 week scan is 3 weeks today! I’m definitely soooo much better, no nausea just the odd random retching on a morning 😂, still shattered but not complaining in comparison to how I felt in December/Jan! Have either you got chatting to any other mums from here? I’m on a WhatsApp group and it’s wild, if I don’t check for 3 days there’s 400 messages to catch up on 😂

@bigbaggyblue how are you doing? Did the nausea ease for you in the end?

@Lh4503 had my 20 week scan on Monday gone and all is ok with baby. We’d hoped to find out the gender but baby’s foot was in the way 🤣 it was curled up like a little ball! I go back in a couple weeks for another scan because they couldn’t check everything with baby in that position so hoping to find out then. How are you getting on? You must be nearing visibility now? That feels like such a milestone for me

@EllieWalesabsolutely, it definitely reassures you hopefully it won't be too long and you'll feel it! 😊 It is so exciting! Are you finding out the sex at the 20 week scan? What date is it?

Aww how lovely @Lh4503 so nice to see them and feel them! I never thought I’d be hoping for baby to kick like mad but I could do with a few for a bit of reassurance 😂 the midwife says there’s no real pattern until 24-28 weeks so could be a while until I feel baby regularly. I’m super excited/nervous I nearly booked a private scan because I couldn’t wait but they don’t have availability until mid next week anyway so I didn’t bother

@EllieWalesAll good thank you 😊 I was so nervous but little miss was good and she managed to check everything in like 10 minutes! 🥰
Awww it's annoying when they just stop i had a day or so where she moved less and I felt stressed too. Apparently its quite early for them to be consistent though so I wouldn't worry about it. Depends on baby's position. I've been having proper kicks the last few days, so much shes made me jump 🤣 I bet you can't wait for your scan now!!

@Lh4503 how did the 20 week scan go today? I have mine in 2 weeks and can’t wait. I had been having some flutters which seem to have stopped and it’s stressing me out!

@bigbaggyblueawww im go glad all went well at the scan 😊 and your doing good!

@EllieWalesah bless you that sounds rough 😓 hope your coping okay.

Yes waiting for a 12 week scan and then a 20 week scan feels like forever. The time between the two is soo long especially if you dont feel movement yet. I had an 8 week and a 16 week with my daughter and this one because it calmed me a bit and made the waiting a bit easier. Got my 20 week scan a week Monday 😳 20 weeks has gone pretty fast

@EllieWaleshmm that sounds challenging, lying down and eating! Hopefully it passes soon!
Yeah absolutely finding out the gender can’t be wait now but 19th March feels a long way away!

I feel ok if I’m lying down and eating 🤣 just trying not to move around too quickly etc but there’s nothing they can do it’s just one of those things!

Aww how exciting, I bet it was so lovely to see baby ❤️ are you planning on finding out the gender?

@EllieWalesgosh that sounds tough, dizziness is a awful feeling, is there anything that helps?
12 week scan was this morning and all is just right, infact they moved me my EDD forward 5 days so now 5th Aug.

Hi both sorry I don’t get notifications for this and haven’t been on in a while! Hope you’re both doing well?

I’ve had horrendous dizziness and breathlessness due to low blood pressure this pregnancy and it’s wiping me out 😩 I’m going to wait for the 20 week scan which is booked in for 23rd Feb, I’m tempted to book a private scan in the meantime but it’s not too long to go so I’ll hold out 😊

How did your 12 week scan go @bigbaggyblue??

@Lh4503thank you! I’ll let you know how we get on 😁! Oh wow that does seem to have gone, it doesn’t seem that long you got your positive test!

@EllieWalesare you going to find out early or wait until your 20 week scan? 😊 Same here I bought mlnotbing until I knew her gender haha

@bigbaggyblueglad your feeling a bit better! Good luck for your 12 week scan ❤️ hope all goes well. I just had my apt letter for my 20 week one 😳 9th Feb it's insane, that half way.

Awww isn’t it amazing when you can actually feel somebody in there, and you know the genders 🥰 so special! Glad you are both doing well! My nausea has definitely eased, hopefully stop taking the medication in the next week or so and I might have some energy back, also got the 12 week scan on the 29th so excited for that 😁!

Aww how lovely @Lh4503 I can’t wait to know what we’re having so we can start thinking about names and buying some bits. I feel like I can’t until we know what it is!

@bigbaggyblue how are you getting on?

@EllieWalesYes she came to the scan with us and seen the baby on the screen too which was lovely 💕 she said she wanted a boy but I dont think she minds either way, she keeps coming up to my tummy saying "aww baby sissy" and wants to go shopping now 🤣 so I'll let he pick iut some bits for her. Awww they told me my placenta is anterior this time I was like nooo! But im not sure how bad because I can feel prodding and rolling haha do thats good 😊 glad your doing well!

Aww how lovely @Lh4503 congratulations 💕does your daughter know yet? She will be over the moon I bet! I’ve started to feel movement over the last week too such an odd sensation a bit like baby’s rolling around 😂 I don’t remember having this feeling with my son he would just kick like mad but I did have an anterior placenta with him and didn’t feel anything until around 24 weeks! Such a relief to start feeling them feels more real now 🥰

Hi all, had my private gender scan today, all was fine with baby (thank god I've been so stressed with the spotting) and we found out we are having another little girl 💕 I've definitely started feeling movement this week too.

How are you all doing? 😊

@EllieWalesseems to be quite common by the seems but yeah very unsettling you cant relax. Mines stopped for a week now 🤞 but i had it for around a month too on and off pretty much every day. Thank you will let you know and updates 😊

Aww sorry you’ve had spotting @Lh4503 I’ve had it for the last 4/5 weeks now and it’s really unsettling but midwife isn’t worried. It’s only a tiny bit and stops almost immediately. Let us know how you get on 🫶

@EllieWalesaww glad it all went well ❤️ I know I can't wait now just want to find out the gender and see him/her again especially since I've had some spotting

Hi @Lh4503 yes we did thank and all good thank you, baby was nice and chilled and I’m hoping it stays that way 😂 only a week until you find out what you’re having so exciting!!

@EllieWalesdid you have your scan on the 5th after? Sorry I've not messaged before I just realised the date!! Hope all went well 🥰 and your feeling okay!

@EllieWalesI have absolutely no idea, my daughter and husband both would like a boy and it would be nice as we already have a girl but I am expecting another girl, everyone we know lately who has had/is having a baby are all girls 🤣
