Little jealous of all tiny cute bumps 22+1 and I feel huge. But this is my 4th and my last two babies where big (just short of 10lb) and I'm only little pregnancy (5.3, size 8)

Fortunately I don't have to get the bus but think it's horrible that people can be so rude. Basic good manners and etiquette seem to have been lost 🙄

January Babies #5 - Are we 'glowing' yet?!
Waitingonasmile · 03/09/2017 09:34

Returnofsaturn are you really fit with good abdominal muscles? There's always pics on Instagram of models/fitness gurus with virtually no bumps even at the end. Try not to worry everyone is so different!

I had a huge round bump with DS and he was only 4 pound 6, so I'm going to be enormous with a bigger baby. Blush

Waitingonasmile · 03/09/2017 09:50

Is anyone else really struggling at night with sleep? I'm already so uncomfortable between heartburn, restless legs and insomnia.

ReturnofSaturn · 03/09/2017 11:34

No im not a fitness bunny at all! In fact id say i was quite unfit
I have always beem pretty slim though i weigh around 51kg

SJ1989 · 03/09/2017 14:48

23 weeks today and this is my bump! I keep being told I'm big for my first everyone carries differently and 'pops' at different stages so try not to worry too much!

hodgeheg92 · 03/09/2017 14:51

Maybebaby2 thank you for that!

ReturnofSaturn I'm sure everyone is different. I'm really quite big and this is my first. Bump is already well and truly too large for most of my clothes! Sure everything will be fine at your scan.

I had my scan on Friday, have an anterior placenta and a slightly larger than average baby. All good so far!

Has anyone else not even heard of having to have the whooping cough vaccine? Don't see the midwife now until the end of September but will be asking her if I don't hear anything before!

SJ1989 · 03/09/2017 15:12

@hodgeheg92 maybe give the midwife or your gp a call and ask, I was told about it at my booking in and again by the community midwife then got a letter for the gp to book in for it

Gemxo · 03/09/2017 17:48

Anyone else experiencing 'fanny daggers' had them non stop today!!

19+5

Gemxo · 03/09/2017 18:06

Also has anyone else had this? Strange marks have appeared on my breasts, they almost look like clusters of love bites (they aren't!) not sure if pregnancy related or something else?

Rosehyd2 · 03/09/2017 18:21

20 weeks here and feeling it! We have our scan tomorrow and I can't wait! We aren't finding out the sex, but just can't wait to see baby again.

peachgreen · 03/09/2017 18:36

We had our gender scan today... and we're having a wee girl! Absolutely over the moon as while we didn't have a preference beforehand, we've been convinced this baby was a girl from the start so it would have been a bit of a shock otherwise! Plus we felt the baby we lost was a boy and never wanted this baby to feel like a replacement for him, if that makes sense. DH was all "I don't have a preference at all" and then when they said it was a little girl he was like "oh thank goodness" Grin.

We celebrated by buying the most adorable cat pinafore dress! Our first bit of baby shopping. It's actually starting to feel like this baby might actually happen! 20 weeks today.

peachgreen · 03/09/2017 18:37

@Rosehyd2 What an adorable bump! Mine is about the same size but nowhere near as neat 😂

peachgreen · 03/09/2017 18:39

Oh, here's the cat pinafore...

January Babies #5 - Are we 'glowing' yet?!
Serendipper · 03/09/2017 18:40

@Rosehyd2 are they maternity jeans? They are so nice, where are they from? I'm also jealous of all the bumps I'm 22 weeks now and have hardly anything. Definitely not strong athletic muscles here, I'm normally a size 16 and except for jeans all my normal stuff is fitting fine!

Rosehyd2 · 03/09/2017 18:46

@peachgreen that pinafore is the cutest thing!! We'll be buying our first baby item tomorrow after the scan if all goes well, probably clothing too although it'll have to be gender neutral.

@serendipper they most definitely are Grin. I live in these and a black pair of skinnies I got for work every day. I got them from H&M - I really recommend their maternity jeans. They're super comfy although this style is quite long (I rolled them up once as you can see in the pic and I'm 5'6). As usual with H&M sizing I had to go up a size.

ziggzagg · 03/09/2017 19:44

I got my DD 11 old cot out of the loft today (getting new mattress) and found loads of baby toys 11 years old they are!! Going to clean them all up and have them in baby's room! Quite like the thought that they have both had the same night light, clock and musical teddies Grin

Mummyme87 · 04/09/2017 07:32

21weeks today and have my anomaly scan on Friday 😁 Planning on finding out the sex of baby this time (didn't we DS).
Haven't felt much on the movement front, occasionally I get a strong pulse... had a sneaky scan at work at 15weeks and had an anterior placenta (again)

Rosehyd2 · 04/09/2017 17:11

Another anterior placenta here (it may be easier to report back who doesn't have one, it seems we all do!)

It did get upsetting at the end. The sonographer said she thinks baby's stomach is on the wrong side so she has referred me and I'll be called within two days by a doctor. I was very upset in the hallway leaving and a midwife came out to see if if I was okay, said I was in good hands and made me promise not to Google it.

I'm very scared Sad

peachgreen · 04/09/2017 17:24

Oh @Rosehyd2, that sounds like a really scary thing to hear. Let us know what the doctor says. We'll all be thinking of you until then. x

Gemxo · 04/09/2017 17:24

Oh @Rosehyd2 I'm so sorry your going through this!! Fingers crossed for you that everything turns out ok ❤️

Iamchanging · 04/09/2017 17:34

Thanking of you Rose

Iamchanging · 04/09/2017 17:35

*thinking sorry

Rosehyd2 · 04/09/2017 17:45

Thanks everyone. Hospital just phoned, I have an appointment with a cardiologist on Wednesday morning and a Consultant Wednesday afternoon. Just a waiting game tonight and tomorrow SadSad

millsbynight · 04/09/2017 17:51

Oh @Rosehyd2 sorry to hear Sad it may just be a case that you are now monitored with regular scans for the rest of the pregnancy though I have no experience with this particular condition.

Whatever it is, they know about it and can monitor and manage it.

Thinking of you❤️

SJ1989 · 04/09/2017 17:52

@Rosehyd2 so sorry your going through this! I Hope they give you answers and it's only something minor and your little one if ok! No matter what happens you have support here xx
