Due in February 2017...thread #3!

[SkyLucy]

A home for all of us enjoying the surreality of the first trimester. We're sick as dogs, exhausted to the core, our boobs hurt, we've developed superhuman senses of smell and we're shirking all alcoholic bevvies with a variety of lame excuses...

...we're preggers and over the moon! Join us if you're due in February 2017 and fancy wisdom for the weirdness, support for any sadness, and a safe place where you can get excited about what the future holds, before you go public!

Third thread already (we're a chatty bunch!) Second thread here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/antenatal_clubs/2662110-Due-in-February-2017-thread-2?

And sunshine!!

Had a private scan today as a present from my mum. At my last epu scan I was 6+4 but baby only measured 5+2 today I'm 8+6 and baby bus also measuring 8+6 with a strong heartbeat x

Yey london, spin and sunshine! Great news all around. I'm having a weekend away with DH this weekend - we booked before I was pg, just took in a few museums and I feel like I have ran a marathon so back having a cheeky nap at the hotel. I just woke myself by snorting like a pig in my sleep . Back to feeling sick though, which is oddly reassuring; thanks for the advice guys, guess it does come and go.

Woohoo kellz fab news! Glad it's a good day for scans today!

Congrats Kellz-- I'll post a pic when I figure out how. After my first posting just took a 2 hour nap. I never nap. I have no idea how you ladies that already have DCs are coping. I can't eat anything and I can't do anything. I just sleep and lay on the sofa all day. I haven't been to the gym since Wednesday. I just feel like a useless lump!

Kellz that is amazing!!

London I had a big nap too

London I am barely coping with 2 DCs and feeling so ill and tired. Luckily the youngest still naps and the eldest is happy to watch hours of telly, so I get a chance to nap myself. My husband is also taking up all of the slack, despite being in a very busy job.

I haven't been to the gym in 4 weeks. Going up and down the stairs is exhausting enough. Plus, I'm not taking enough calories as it is (have lost 2 kg in the last 3 weeks) so I don't think I should be expending any more than I am.

Lovely scan pic

Jdawg, we're waiting for the January sales to get some things but I want the pram sorted. We've no carseat without it and with my being due 3rd of Feb I don't want to push my luck only getting it a few.weeks before due date lol. X

London it's hell with a three year old and pregnant, I can't nap. I went to chill in the bath and she came to 'wash the baby in my tummy' she means well but I wish she was clingy to her dad lol xx

Kellz - just goes to show how 'out' earlier scans can be. Glad to hear baby has caught up and that everything is good. Same for you Sunshine! Good news all round.

I've been out for afternoon tea and ate far, far too much. I look about six months gone right now.

I have a 3 yo (almost 4) who constantly wants to hug the baby- she may as well be glued to me atm!

Oh I'm so pleased to see pictures and hear good news today!! I can't wait to see my little one tomorrow. Will be so lovely to joking you all with your lovely photos!

OH MY GOD, I was craving salad for dinner. Wow. I don't like salad! Of course, I also ate a whole bunch of dough balls with garlic butter, but you know, it all evens out, right?

Oh kellz that's great news!

I got my official NHS scan date today: 22nd July. By my last scan I will be 11+2, but the NHS think I'd be 12+4 as they only worked on my LMP and a 28 day cycle. I'm so nervous!

theresamarie55 thanks for those points. It's really helpful to have another view. I might look at our plan again. Thank you xx

Fab news about the scans today! It's lovely to have some happy news.
I'm 7+4 today and so bloated. I think I might be digging out my maternity clothes soon!

Phoebe I'm so pleased

Cinderella it's exactly the same:) my daughter is 3 and a half and is glued to me.

Ceecee won't be long!! And by then baby will maybe measure that!!

Friendly I'm needing some maternity clothes!! I'm so bloated xx

Hope everyone's ok and had a great day! Are u all really bloated by the evening? Stomach starts off flat(ish) in morning n by bedtime look 6 months in!

No sunshine- I look 6 months gone from the minute I wake up until I go to bed lol. I even had someone give up their chair for me!

kellz lovely news :)

here is the scan pic finally!

Hehe cinderella like the idea of chairs being offered!!

Aww lovely london

I look the same now as I did at about 18 weeks with my first, even though I weigh less than when I got pregnant first time so don't think its that. I'm 9+2 today. I think its more to do with it being my third and me not leaving very big gaps between them x

Great news london! And kellz too! Big congratulations. Hope I didn't miss anyone. The thread moves so fast!
Theresa I'm definitely the same, I have a small bump already! I am probably at least a stone heavier than when I fell pregnant with no. one [embarrassed]
Was so tired yesterday I had two naps, about four hours in total. My poor dh having to do everything yesterday, although as he is away a lot I am working and looking after the kids most days during the week so need to recover at the weekend. 10 plus 1 today.
