Something just moved in my stomach..

[Ohshitx]

I’ve name changed for this.

Something literally just rolled in my stomach, there was a popping sensation and now I swear I have a bump where I didn’t before. Nothing that strange until I mention that I’ve not had sex since November and I’ve had periods since then. But something is moving in my stomach, and not like trapped wind. I’ll get out for a test first thing, but I surely can’t be that many weeks pregnant and not have had a single symptom till now, surely? Please someone tell me I can’t.

What a shock! I was 17 weeks when I found out I was pregnant with DC3 and that was challenging - never mind 9 weeks off D-day!

Best wishes. You’re a stable, adult woman, who has a child. No reason anyone decent should be in the slightest bit judgemental about this.

I hope your scan goes well. Seeing the baby might make it all feel a bit more real. I can't remember if you said how old your DS is but I'm sure he'll love being a big brother.

Ahh OP I wish you all the luck in the world, I've been following this thread with ridiculous interest! Please come back and update when you tell FWB and your son too!

Also just to add I have a 6 (7 in July) year old too and I'm 26 weeks pregnant, she's so excited to have a sibling and I can see that she's going to be the best big sister! It will be a lovely age gap!

Oh OP, I have been following your thread for a few days and certainly wasn't expecting this outcome. Wishing you all the luck in the world. I'm sure your mum will be supportive, if a little shocked.

@Someone1987 Shall we ask the OP to post proof of her scan on this anonymous forum?

@acatcalledjohn yes please.

Have you told your child yet?

Like @PeterPeterson, I also have a 6yo (7in January) and I’m 24 weeks pregnant with DC2. She’s very excited to be having a baby sister and is telling me all the ways she’s going to help me when DD2 is here.

Good luck and congrats op. Your mum and friend will definitely need to be sitting down for the news - try not to overthink their first or second reactions, give them time to process and catch up.

I would definitely tell your son first, then your mum. Have a practice telling people who will be positive and 100% on your team before you tell anyone who may react with chock and speak before thinking.

Congratulations!

@Someone1987 If you have doubts report it. Don't troll hunt. It's against MN guidelines and quite frankly makes you look like a dickhead.

And they ain't pretty.

Wow congratulations op read your first few posts then didn’t come across thread again today! What a shock it must be but a lovely surprise.
I have a few baby boys and pieces if you need anything please shout.
Hope your son will be excited to become a big brother:)

Wow! What a shock, but at least you've had an easy pregnancy!
This happened to my neighbour very recently except she found out at 29 weeks

I don’t know what the message said that’s been deleted. I don’t really know why I would lie anonymously to a group of women I don’t know on the internet. I don’t gain anything from that? I don’t really know what else to say, you can doubt me if you like. It doesn’t have any bearing on my life at the minute. What does have bearing is the baby that I’m due in 9 weeks, that I haven’t bought a thing for, that nobody knows about. So I’ll concentrate on that, if it’s ok with you?

I think I will tell DS first, but I won’t have him tell my mum. It would just be lead to an awkward conversation in front of him, along the lines of who’s the dad etc.

Have you spoken to the FWB? You sound like you’re really together OP, you might not feel like it but you sound great.

@Ohshitx

@SoupDragon quoted them at 12:30 if you want to know what it said.

Sounds plausible to me!

My cousin found out she was pregnant when she went into labour.

At work.

I can post the scan as and when I’ve had it, but it won’t be before Dad, DS and family see it. And then it could have been pulled from the internet, but whatever helps 🤷🏼‍♀️

OP as far as I can see there's only the one poster hasn't believed you, the rest of us are on board and hoping for the best for you (and to get updates!).
Honestly I'd take no notice.
I want to know when you're going to tell your mum! And I agree don't do that through ds - this is a bit too serious for that kind of game.

OP, all but one believe you. Please don’t let the rotten one in the bunch put you off posting

Maybe if the non-believer asks nicely OP will let them stick their hand up her foof for a good feel of a cervix in pregnancy.

There are LOADS of posts on here from ladies who didn't find out they were pregnant until quite late in.

Don't believe it, don't post & scroll past instead of making snarky comments.
