Hello! I haven’t seen a thread so thought I’d start one for any other mums expecting December babies :-)
I’m 24, this is #2 (have a DS who is 4) and EDD is 3/12/18!
Had an early mc in Feb so feeling quite anxious still.

Hello everyone, hoping to join. BFP with number 2, DD is 13 months. LMP gives me due date of 10th Dec but I’m sure I ovulated late so probably closer to Christmas Day (eekk!). No real symptoms yet just tired and so thirsty! Had awful nausea and vomiting the whole 9 months with DD so praying for an easier ride this time!

Is anyone else not having any cramping? I had quite a lot of cramping in early pregnancy with my son (which worried me at the time) and nothing so far (which ironically is worrying me now!)

Hi Cherry Wink

Olga I am the opposite having lots of cramps and worrying myself sick about them, cant remember if I had them last time.

pineapplefritter · 14/04/2018 22:29

Hi all is there a Facebook page yet?

JimmyPestoJunior · 15/04/2018 09:15

Is anyone else having night sweats? I woke up at 5am this morning with full on sweating. Such a lovely thing to wake up to!

SpongeBobGrannyPants · 15/04/2018 10:04

Cramping is totally normal. Had them each pregnancy until a good few weeks in. They should be fairly mild though so always get it checked out if they're not.

SpongeBobGrannyPants · 15/04/2018 10:04

Also normal not to have any, I should add!

Usernamechecksout · 15/04/2018 10:10

No Facebook page yet but I’d join one! We made a secret group for my first DS and we are all still regularly posting and meeting up in RL Smile.

Buenavista · 15/04/2018 10:20

My cramps come and go, which worries me too! Hopefully all is normal and fine. I’d join a Facebook or WhatsApp group too, I did for my DS and so useful and nice to have a group going through the exact same thing

Mamababynumber2 · 15/04/2018 10:23

I'd also join a Facebook group! Not sure how to set one up though. It would need to be secret one so it doesn't come up on people's feeds :)

AaronPurrSir · 15/04/2018 11:00

I’d join a Facebook group, have no idea how we’d set it up though!

I’ve had cramping, had fairly strong period pain like cramps from weeks 4-6, it’s eased off now and I just get some every now and then. I have had a lot of round ligament pain though, has anyone else had this?

Mamababynumber2 · 15/04/2018 11:07

Hi aaron I've had cramping too. It was at its worse last week. I am 6 weeks today.

0lgaDaPolga · 15/04/2018 11:31

I’d be up for a Facebook group. I’m in one from when I was pregnant with my son and there are 74 of us on there with babies born the same month and it is such a close knit supportive group, it’s amazing. We have it as a secret group on there so no one can see anything we post

0lgaDaPolga · 15/04/2018 11:33

Oh and anyone with cramping, don’t worry. I had loads with my first baby and he was fine. It’s just everything stretching. I’m assuming this time I’m not getting cramps as I’ve already stretched a little. My boy is only 10 months

Mamababynumber2 · 15/04/2018 11:35

olga would you be happy to create one? I don't have a clue how to make a secret one and invite people. We could ask if those in the other December 2018 group want to join us too?

0lgaDaPolga · 15/04/2018 11:44

Yes I can set one up. Send me a pm if you want to join, I’ll need to add you on Facebook, then add to the group

Mamababynumber2 · 15/04/2018 11:49

Thank you :) all sent x

0lgaDaPolga · 15/04/2018 12:35

Hi all, Facebook group has been set up. Settings are on secret so no one can see you have joined or what you post. If you would like to join send me a pm and I’ll add you

Fififiesta · 15/04/2018 13:51

Jimmy I havent been sweating but I have been so HOT at night, kinda weird hot like my skin is cold but I'm still boiling?? Also waking up in the morning feeling like I've had too much salt the night before, you know like when you have a HUGE takeaway and you are kinda takeaway-hungover in the morning?!?Hmm Confused I dont know if I'm making sense!!

Mamababynumber2 · 15/04/2018 13:55

I'm having a clothes question . Is anyone else not fitting in their trousers because of bloat? I ideally need to buy some more leggings but don't want to jinx myself. What is everyone else doing if they are mega bloated like me?

Martydog · 15/04/2018 14:36

Hi I've been lurking around but need to bite the bullet now and join. My due date is 21december and this is number 2.

0lgaDaPolga · 15/04/2018 14:58

I’m really bloated too. I’m just in normal leggings and stretchy tops at the moment. Going to have to dig out my maternity leggings soon at this rate. Didn’t need them until about 17 weeks last time!

Mamababynumber2 · 15/04/2018 15:11

Welcome marty.
olgadapolga I actually look very fat. And don't have many long tops to cover my bum and tummy when wearing leggings.

Buenavista · 15/04/2018 15:17

Yes bloated here too. Pretty sure everyone at work thought I was pregnant again before I did! Baggy stuff feels comfiest. And yes Fifi to the slight hangover feel, especially as keep waking in the night to pee then can’t get back to sleep again.

Mamababynumber2 · 15/04/2018 15:20

buena I'm also waking in the night for a wee and my boobs and body ache when I get up to go like I've been overdoing it at the gym. not touched a gym in 6 years
