March 2016 Babies! Here's thread #5!!

[Paperblank]

New one!!

Good luck with your scan today Rosie hope they find the sex! Since you're paying for it I assume they will!

Been up since 5.30 myself with insomnia and had trouble getting to sleep and was up in the night really thirsty. Ugh. Supposed to be driving to west midlands this morning to meet DPs new niece but DD has a cold so we're not sure if it's ok... And both parents' phones are off! It takes about three hours to drive there from here so we really need to know soon I think it'll be fine but would understand if they were funny about it - me and DP were a bit ok very melodramatic about people being around DD ill when she was v little. This time round we'll be more relaxed since DD has a cold all the time so baby 2 will be exposed to germs no matter what we do!

Good luck for today Rosie hope little monkey is a little angel today.

Rhubarb my scan is on Monday - 9.20. I can't wait

No rest for the wicked - back to the decorating for us today. Have a good day y'all

Marmite DD2 was born November 29th and her two siblings had colds, so she spent her first month with a permanent cold! It was kinda sad really but she was fine.

Paper I'm soooo jealous! Have fun!

Thanks girlies so exciting all of us getting past the 20 weeks mark already we're basically half way

Scan is at 1:45 will keep you all posted after!

Good luck today Rosie, I hope baby behaves for you!

Aw beautiful that's my birthday too - dp's is a week later so there's always an xmas cold around here.
Bump Seems to have shrank considerably - seems really odd, few painful cramps too but mw has said as there's no bleeding she's not worried. Roll on Wednesday, can't shift the doom and gloom feeling from previous mmc (even though that was at 8 weeks)
Good luck today rosie!!

I hope your scan goes well today Rosie. Fab news on all the latest scans.
On centiles - I honestly would try not to worry about these things. My eldest dd has been around the 8/9th centile her whole life until about a year ago and she's taken a massive growth spurt - she's now 11 and is average compared to the other girls in her class. Haven't checked centiles for her for a few years as there's no point.

Is anyone else still really emotional for no reason? I am crying for nothing at all on an almost daily basis. TMI ALERT - had sex last night for the first time in about a week as we've been so tired/busy with moving house and I cried like a baby afterwards. I can't even explain why. It was really uncomfortable right enough as twice during my sciatic nerve on my leg went and then I felt like we were squashing my bump. Was awful and I just felt so bad about it I think that I ended up crying . Tell me others are feeling the same?!

Q, I'm exactly the same after a mmc, I think having gone through several weeks of not knowing there was anything wrong, I just don't trust that I'd know this time, if that makes sense. I'm largely ok, but every twinge worries me, or if I sit down and my bump disappears, or if I suddenly feel all well and energetic, it sends me into a panic. When is your scan? I'm practically counting down the hours til mine!

Doh, just seen it's Wednesday. Mine's Tuesday, hopefully it will give us a confidence boost!

Aww really Q? I love it, she was planned and due on that day too :)

I'm pretty emotional, but annoyingly I'm getting more paranoid and needy. I'm so fuming that DH didn't come over as planned last night cos he needed to "rest his foot". I haven't had much sleep thanks to the DC, meanwhile he'll have had a lovely loe in! I'm so resentful right now.

My scan is on Wednesday but I'm strangely calm about it! In fact I keep forgetting it's so soon. Maybe because I already know the sex and can feel movements? Either way I'm glad to be like this for once. The wait nornormally kills me!

Eww, some nice typos in there...

Can I join you ladies? I was on the April theead but am actually due 25th March. 17+1 today, 20 week scan 2 weeks on Weds.

Hi tappity! Hope you're ok. Are you going to find out your baby's sex? :)

missdee am also emotional and crying over random things. Also (sorry if tmi) struggling with sex and bump! DTD last night for first time in over a week, and my bump seems to have gotten much bigger since then I wasn't expecting sex to be a challenge for a while! Bit frustrating!

Congrats on all the scan news, so jealous haha mine is two weeks yesterday still :( feels like ages away.! I'm really nervous- I'm expecting no heartbeat at all. I told the midwife the other day that I thought I wouldn't and she told me to try and relax however the doctor was horrible and kept saying things like " it's not your fault if you miscarry" it makes me think she thinks I will :(
Welcome tappity :)
Oh bought a Doppler without telling me the other day. Just used it and although it took 15 minutes to find I suddenly heard horses galloping it was different to the swooshing and far to fast to be my heartbeat. It's still right down low by pubic line though and a slightly different place to where midwife heard it.
Yesterday was strange- lying flat on back and all of a sudden I saw something poke out the side of my belly although I'm not 100 per cent. I have an anterior placenta so I doubt it's baby.
Anyone know how many boys to girls we have on this thread now?

I'm especially paranoid as sickness and nausea is finally dying down a lot.
First Saturday morning I havnt vomited in weeks!

See it as a good thing Ginger :) Just think of it as your body finally adjusting itself to the baby in your belly.

I'm also very emotional! Cried because I was crying this morning! Bad weather is enough to set me off lately. Sex is also chsnhing itself up now lol laying on my back is a definite no for now so.... There's that lol

I am doing OK thanks. Yes will find out - too nosy not to! Hope everyone else is doing well. I have some anxiety too for no apparent reason, am trying to tell myself everything will be OK so no need to panic about every possible (rare) thing that could go wrong!

No sex here for weeks!! Sciatica followed by a chest infection hasn't really helped although I am loving the undisturbed sleep

Bored of painting now. Our house looks like a friction bomb has gone off...

See!!!

Stressing the pregnant woman out is this

Oof, just had my flu jab and it's floored me! Anyone else has theirs? I get mine every year (my company pays for a bupa nurse to come and jab us all) but don't normally feel this rubbish afterwards!

I had mine last Saturday suz and didn't feel any after effects but was talking to a pregnant friend of mine on sat who said that shed suffered quite badly after hers, so I think it varies lots.

Feeling huge and fat today. Having a bit of a wobble about how big I'm getting

I've had mine this morning Suz. Feeling a bit tired now but nothing major. Hope you feel better soon. DS seems a bit more lethargic than usual so hoping for a good bedtime!

Glad I have a scan buddy Paper. Mine isn't until 3:30 though.

My ds is fine after his rhubarb, dammit!
