Great pic @wejammin!

Lovely scan pics guys

Loving seeing all these scans

Lovely seeing all the scans! Congratulate ladies 💕 After a massive palaver with mine I’m hoping after my first midwife appointment next week (at 11 weeks) I will have a scan date too!

We’re off to Florida at the end of may, going to be a slightly different trip now as there’s no rides/ theme parks for me but really can’t wait to get away.

So sorry to add doom and gloom, missed miscarriage here. I'd had a bit of a bad feeling as symptoms stopped around 9 weeks, but actually nothing had grown at all, just a sac. Should have had that early scan after all I guess! Beautiful scans from everyone else today, truly delighted for you all. I'm ok about this, feels very sad but we're so lucky to have our gorgeous wee boy. Wine and cuddles tonight, dreaded d and c this weekend. Hopefully it'll happen for us again in the not too distant future. Lots of love to everyone, wish you all a healthy pregnancy xx

@toasterstrudle that’s so sad to hear - I’m so sorry. Glad to hear you are so upbeat but do look after yourself - it must be a lot to take in. Hope you’ll be back on another board before too long

@toasterstrudle oh no, that's really sad news, really sorry to hear that. I hope you've a nice weekend ahead to try and come to terms with it. Big virtual hugs xxx

So sorry to hear your sad news @toasterstrudle. Thinking of you.

So sorry to hear this @toasterstrudle

Thinking of you @toasterstrudle

Ahhh lovely scan pictures! @wejammin I'm also October and I'm sure they'll be plenty of us with babies arriving in October! My DD was supposed to arrive early in the month and ended up arriving late in the month she was too comfortable I think!

@toasterstudle I'm so so sorry.

So sorry @toasterstrudle Be kind to yourself xx

@toasterstrudle so so sorry to read your news. Look after yourself xx

Really sorry to hear your news @toasterstrudle Best of luck for the future.

Great news on all the scan pics.

Oh toaster I’m so sorry. Be kind to yourself, mmc is so mean. You seem upbeat, but allow yourself to be sad as well if you need.

wejammin congrats on your scan today, that’s a lovely clear picture.

Thank you so much all, that's just lovely reading your messages. Im actually ok, husband and I have stocked up on pizza and wine and we're going to have a bit of a drink and a cry this evening. Onwards and hopefully upwards though, we're so lucky to have DS at least xx

Oh @toasterstrudle I'm so sorry to hear that. Sending you gentle hugs x

So sorry @toasterstrudle xxx

Really sorry to hear your news @toasterstrudle. Have some wine for all of us. Thinking of you x

Sorry @toasterstrudle wishing you all the best for the future.

Sorry I have been quiet I have had a challenging week. My son developed slapped cheek last weekend and my bloods have come back showing that I am not immune. Which means that I am currently in the waiting period to see if I catch it after what was definitely a significant exposure.

I am still feeling pretty rough, exhausted and nauseated. Things had seemed to improve a bit earlier in the week but today has been difficult again. 10+ 4 today and plodding towards my 12 week scan in just under two weeks.

Just feeling very pessimistic about everything at the moment.

Has anyone used one of these for previous babies?

So sorry @toasterstrudle I hope you have a healthy pregnancy soon

Yes @GiveMummyTheWhizzer we used one with DS as he just wouldn't settle in the crib, it really helped. We used the sleepyhead when he got bigger too. I haven't checked current safe sleep guidelines to check whether they're still ok yet though.
