I've been up since 3am with a horrible D&V bug. I've been sick at least 10 times and I am cant keep down water. Just had a fruit pastille lolly to see if I can keep that down.

AIBU to murder my DH for going to see his 4 year old nephew with a stomach bug on Friday. DH has the much milder version and has only been sick 3 times!

Rosehyd2 · 25/09/2017 14:12

Congratulations @weasledee - very happy for you!!

klaw87 · 25/09/2017 15:57

Ahhh congratulations @weasledee !! A summer baby 👶🏼 get lots of rest and look after yourself, and keep us updated too :) huge huge congrats xx

MissyJones80s · 25/09/2017 16:48

Sorry username that sounds rotten Sad

shaaan1329 · 25/09/2017 18:03

I'm slightly anxious today, I'm not sure if I'm being a bit dramatic but I've noticed reduced movements today.. I felt him moving around since about 21 weeks I'm now 24 and usually at night and when I'm still the last week or so I've felt him but today has been noticeably less. I'm currently at work but I'm anxious as I've moved house last few days and am worried I've done something. I'm pretty sure the midwives say not to count kicks until 28 weeks but has anyone experienced this?

Usernamegone · 25/09/2017 18:07

Shaaan where is you placenta? I'm 25w tomorrow. Some days i find baby is very active and some days just when I am lying down. I think it also depends where your placenta is, somedays I can feel baby like thump, thump, thump and some days barely at all! If you are worried I would call your midwife.

Gemxo · 25/09/2017 19:11

I am so over the moon for you @weasledee !!!! Please keep us updated on how you and baba are 😘❤️

Rosehyd2 · 25/09/2017 19:20

I also think I feel baby sometimes and then other times I'm so worried as I haven't felt anything for days. It's so difficult to know so I sympathise with your worry!

hodgeheg92 · 25/09/2017 19:21

shaan I think the general advice is not to worry about feeling less movement yet, because the baby still has lots of room to move in there. You say you are feeling movement, just less right? I had less movement last Saturday and I worried all day like you, but then it was back to normal and being thumped lots on Sunday! Of course, if you're concerned and it would make you feel better, then call your midwife. She will be able to give you the best advice.

I bought my car seat today Grin A friend was selling second hand the exact same one we were going to buy. (I trust her when she says she hasn't had a car accident whlist using it) Makes it feel very real having something that a baby is going to be inside soon!

SJ1989 · 25/09/2017 20:33

@weasledee congrats I was only wondering the other day how you was doing! Made up for you xx

MummyM33 · 25/09/2017 20:49

@weasledee woohoo! I'm so happy for you 🎉 a rainbow baby ❤ that's really wonderful news x

weasledee · 25/09/2017 20:53

Thanks for all your kind comments, it's early days and as you can imagine, this is going to be a very different experience from last time, can't allow myself any excitement really :(
We're STILL waiting for the genetics team to tell us what was wrong with our last baby.... going to call them again tomorrow! Also I'm hoping we may get an early scan this time x

SJ1989 · 25/09/2017 21:14

@weasledee I can understand it must be stressful and worrying atm but our fingers toes and everything else are crossed that things go smoothly! Definitely push the genetics team and for an early scan just to help relax you!

Disinterested · 25/09/2017 21:43

Oh @weasledee that is the best news I've heard in a long time. So happy for you! Xxx

MrsCorr · 25/09/2017 22:00

@weasledee congratulations! I had a miscarriage in January at 12 weeks. When I found out I was pregnant this time I phoned the early pregnancy unit directly & had two scans before my 12 weeks scan. Think the 1st one I was about 6 weeks. Just tell them you are looking for reassurance. It really helped put my mind at ease a bit although my anxiety still hasn't fully gone away. Wishing you a healthy 9 months ❤️

Rosehyd2 · 26/09/2017 06:54

I too have woken up to a dried wet patch on my pj top on my right hand side in front of my nipple. Does this happen during the day and I just don't know because I wear a bra?! I'm conscious I'll be leaking all over tops during the day now.

SJ1989 · 26/09/2017 07:15

@rosehyd I've had it happen during the day and o my know because i was being lazy in my pjs with no bra so I got some of the breast pads just in case!

MegRam · 26/09/2017 07:31

@Rosehyd2 @SJ1989 😱😱 I haven't had this but now I'm worried I might! Not bothered about night time though, obviously...

Maybe we should all start carrying breast pads in our handbags, just in case!

x

Rosehyd2 · 26/09/2017 07:40

I'll definitely buy some just in case. And I was thinking carrying them around would be a good idea too. I'm not sure if I'd put them in anyway, or once I've noticed it's started (maybe too late then?) They don't tell you these things in the ttc glow do they!

SJ1989 · 26/09/2017 07:45

@Megan @rosehyd I've been putting them in my bra now anyway most days I can't see anything on them but the odd day I can, you can get a box from the super markets pretty cheap but the sticky bit isn't great but so far they seem to stay in place anyway till I'm getting changed

Rosehyd2 · 26/09/2017 14:02

I've just bought some washable ones in Boots. I've got large boobs (34G) so I assume they will sit in the cups of my bra nicely and not move (there isn't really any room to move!) . We shall see!

Rosehyd2 · 26/09/2017 14:03

Although only on here will I admit to shoving some folded up tissue in my bra this morning.. Until this morning I didn't even know nipple leakage this early was a thing!

SJ1989 · 26/09/2017 14:20

@rosehyd that made me laugh! I've had it for a little while now but I have previously had a hormone imbalance which sometimes caused my boobs to leak and that and without being pregnant so it didn't surprise me when it started early atleast now there's a valid reason for it

Lenska999 · 26/09/2017 18:43

Ah ha! Literally just found this thread after months of being away waves my update is that we are having a baby girl, my EDD is actually 29.12.17 so a bit earlier than I thought, and I'm having an ELCS so birthday will likely be a week before, around 22.12.17? I'm coming up to 27 weeks on Friday and I'm fairly fed up of being pregnant lol.

Crap summer, my mum passed away and I'm having all sorts of issues at work which is making for a really stressful time.

Starting to see the end though, cannot wait to meet this little one!

Owl1011 · 26/09/2017 19:49

So there must be 'a chair' where I work because today I've found out another 4 colleagues are pregnant and due early next year around a similar time! Everyone keeps commenting how small my bump is for 23 weeks, that and I haven't felt much movement today so having a bit of a worry and working away until tomorrow so can't phone the midwife until ThursdaySad
