Lovely scan oky 🙂 I've told most people now, so much fun seeing their reactions x

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 15/02/2017 09:47

Hi to everyone just joining! I'm newish too Smile

Well as of today I'm the owner of a freshly turned 4 year old Grin...& my madness will show for a month as it means I have a 1, 4, 5 & 6yo in the house.

I'm still planning on just revealing the bump after/during Easter & letting folks make of it what they will. The only people that know (aside from dh) are my dad, my best friend & a school mum. I had some nasty reactions (from certain family members) with our 4th & can't trust myself not to react back currently.

thisismee · 15/02/2017 11:18

Morning! Hi to all new posters!
Lovely seeing all the scan pictures also congrats .

I'm just back from my 16week midwife appointment. Heard a very lovely heartbeat too. 😊

Hope you are all well and bumps are growing nicely.

MuntRock · 15/02/2017 15:54

Hello Ladies,
Been recommended this site as I'm a newbie!
I'm 16 weeks + 1, due 1st August, first time.
Very excited, and nice to see people going through the same feelings as me at the minute! Trying not to bore non pregnant friends with how I'm feeling! xx

Fieldandgrasses · 15/02/2017 18:14

Great news re heartbeat, Thisisme! Mine is next week and hope for same...

ThatsALovelyBush · 15/02/2017 19:23

Hi all!

I disappeared for the last few months - I was driving myself nuts with worrying, anxiety and all sorts so I stepped away from the internet until I'd had my 12 week scan which was earlier this week.

All is well and official due date is 26th August. Scan was interesting; involved half emptying my bladder half way through - stopping mid-pee was quite difficult! And had to go for a walk around to get baby to move position. It was so strange to see it moving and wiggling around, but not be able to feel anything.

Glad to see everyone else is getting on ok Smile

Sparklyuggs · 15/02/2017 20:57

Welcome newbies and welcome back bush.

I had my 16w mw appt and got to hear the heartbeat which was lovely Smile wasn't expecting to and made it worth DH going to it.

IntoTheWoods84 · 16/02/2017 04:27

Hi all newbies! Anyone considering a 'gender scan'?

I might wait a week til I'm 17 weeks along. Worth a punt?

I'm way too impatient to wait as my next scan isn't until 22 weeks and I am rubbish with surprises!
Love all the pics - thanks for sharing!

MrsG280516 · 16/02/2017 07:54

InToTheWoods I'm having a gender scan this Sunday at exactly 16 weeks, so excited Grin

MrsG280516 · 16/02/2017 09:19

We're due for a new thread soon so if everyone wants to post their EDD's and I'll start a new list with everyone who is active. I imagine almost everyone's dates will have changed since the start of this one.

If you haven't already, feel free to message me with your email address to be added to the FB group (internet browser only, not on the MN app).

thenorthernluce · 16/02/2017 10:10

Hi MrsG, I'm 7 August.

I have my 2nd midwife appointment next Thurs, which I'm excited about. And my bump has suddenly made itself known in the past three days. It was struggling to get my pyjamas into a comfy position that made me realise exactly how much I've expanded!

OkyDoke · 16/02/2017 11:47

Hi MrsG, I'm due 26th August!

firsttimer12345 · 16/02/2017 11:53

Northernluce snap! Due 7th August and midwife next Thursday.

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 16/02/2017 12:11

Edd 11th August here MrsG

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 16/02/2017 12:14

NorthernLuce I've stopped wearing my pj bottoms in bed as they end up below my hips & all skewed. I refuse to buy maternity nightwear & I'm too tight to buy bigger pjs for a matter of months too Grin

ZigAZigAhh · 16/02/2017 12:22

Hi MrsG - 16 August here!

yolkybokey · 16/02/2017 12:58

Hi all!
Just had my first scan :)
EDD is now 15th August, and I am measuring 14 weeks so too big for nuchal tests!
We were also able to find out the gender and it is a boy (I had convinced myself it was a girl so that was a little bit of a shock!)
All is looking good otherwise, I am back for tests in a couple of weeks.
So exciting!

Brainfried1986 · 16/02/2017 13:57

Hi MrsG, EDD 2nd August for me.

Had 16 week mw appt today - all good with blood tests etc & lovely to hear little ninja baby's heartbeat. We're not going to find out if it's a boy or girl - looking forward to a nice surprise :) had triple test today, so fingers crossed we don't hear anything for a while!

Heatherbaby · 16/02/2017 14:13

Hi Mrs G. My official due date is 9 Aug now Smile I think jaffa had a list going a few pages back although maybe needed updating. Thanks for this!

Glad to see lots of good news of scans and heart beats. I'm also impatient to find out the gender but DH said we should just wait until the 20 week scan...so difficult cos I want to pick a name! X

Lapin387 · 16/02/2017 14:19

23rd August for me. Had dating scan today and my bladder was so full she made me empty it before continuing! I had a private scan two weeks ago and it's amazing how much the baby has grown.

ErneyAndAgnes · 16/02/2017 16:20

Official due date 5th August- snap Yolky!

SickRose · 16/02/2017 16:51

12th August for me!

IntoTheWoods84 · 16/02/2017 17:06

Pisghetti · 16/02/2017 21:00
