December 2017 babies #6 - dating scans, gender reveals, the beginning of bumps & the 2nd trimester!

[Carley27]

Thread #6 for the chatty mums due in December (or thereabouts!).

As we move into the second trimester there will be more dating scans, gender reveals and burgeoning bumps - and hopefully a reduction in nausea!

SHIT I have just been to the loo and had brown discharge.
Shit shit shit
At least the scan is today but I feel absolutely sick to my stomach

Lapin
Good luck for scan. I am sure discharge is nothing. Virtual hand hold here. What time is your scan?

@MaryShelley1818
Good luck today. We are thinking of you.

My scan is at midday. I have never had any kind of discharge in my previous pregnancy or this one.
I feel less pregnant too, boobs much less sore and I have not been sick since Friday. So goddamn worried

Good luck today @LapinR0se and @MaryShelley1818

Good luck those being scanned today. I'll be thinking of you 🤞🤞

Slept from 0530 til now, can't imagine tonight will be better with scan tomorrow, feel symptomless which is worrying me, anyone else at 12 weeks?

Love and luck to @LapinR0se and @MaryShelley1818

@Mrsbluebell17 don't worry about being on your back, at this stage it won't matter at all, and when you get big enough for it to matter you wouldn't be able to tolerate it without being sick or dizzy so your body will naturally revert to either being on your side or you'll prop yourself up to ensure you aren't flat, it's flatness not being on your back that causes the problems, big love x

Lapin and MaryShelley I will be thinking of you both today. I've had brown bleeding in this and my last pregnancy with neither a sign of miscarriage but I know how bloody terrifying it is. Keeping everything crossed for you both xx

Good luck today Lapin and MaryShelley

Lapin sorry about the discharge, I know it's worrying but it does seem to very common so I'm sure it's nothing to worry about. At least your scan is today which will hopefully put your mind at ease.

Ok my nub theory predictions are:
Japan - Girl
Scots - Girl
Fox - Girl
TipTop - Boy
(Bluebell I don't see the nub in yours, although it may not be the nub I'm seeing in others either!)

Surely I will get at least one right

Wishing you all the luck for some lovely, reassuring scans today @MaryShelley1818 and @LapinR0se sorry you've been having a rough time

Good luck to all those with scans today. Thinking of you! X

Does mine have a nub? Thoughts? 😂

13 weeks today. When does 1st tri end? I hope the sickness sods off with it lol x

tootsy I assume the nub is the thin white line at the bottom? I would maybe say girl but I've no idea

I'm 14(!) weeks today. I've come down with the worst snotty nose ever which is charming!
Can hardly believe I'm in the 2nd tri already - am I the only one who still feels like it's a big joke and someone's gonna come along and tell me they were kidding?!

Tootsy I would guess girl but I'm never entirely sure if I'm actually looking at the right bit!

I can't believe people are in the second trimester already

I have zero concentration today.. only been in work a couple of hours and already clock watching for home time!

I have had girl and boy predictions from my scan pics so far would love some more opinions though..

Any nub guesses for me, I don't really know what I'm looking for!

Thinking of you both today lapin and maryshelley x

tootsy I'm going to say girl for you, only because he skull shape looks like my daughters did.

glasto going to say. Girl for you too :) I don't really have any idea but I go more on skull (based upon friends scans and mine over the years)

Glasto - Girl
Southy - Girl

I have guessed girl every time bar one so I think I am probably doing it wrong

@TootsyBella84 and @glastogal girl and @Southy84 boy xx

I'm convinced I can see a willy on my pic!! I may be looking in the wrong place tho x

Does anyone have any advice for me? I caught my sons sickness bug so haven't ate for 24 hours (or drank) because I've been that poorly. I feel so ill, I can't even sip water without wretching. Is there anything I can take to help??😰

Southy - I assume you know where willies are (given your current state!!)

Sounds awful @Meeshel29 - try your GP, they might be able to give you some anti-sickness pills.. if you can't keep water down though you should get looked at if it goes on too long or you might get dehydrated

Sounds awful meeshel :( I don't know what to suggest, can you speak to your midwife and ask her? She may have some suggestions, I think probably at least trying with fluids would be the main focus so you don't get dehydrated (I know that isn't easy though) I have heard of lucozade the original fizzy one helping to settle stomachs or flat lemonade but if you're that poorly that may not help at all. Hope you start feeling better soon

Can't get in my doctors and my midwife is only there on a Friday! About as helpful as a chocolate teapot! I worried about dehydration as I've got a bad headache and haven't weed (normally up 2 or 3 times a night!). I'll get some lucosade later (will ask my OH as the thought of going out is horrifying!😂) hopefully I pick up later on. 11 weeks tomorrow and haven't had a decent day yet 😢
