Ante-natal thread for babies due this November, continued...

Stats spreadsheet is here - add and update yourself as needed!

@sarahhh1984 my 20w scan is tomorrow too. I am a whole new breed of excitaworried!

@GiveMummyTheWhizzer It's horrible, isn't it? I'm trying to push any worry to the back and just focus on the excitement. Which is actually fairly easy this week as have started feeling really pronounced movement from the baba! Scan isn't until 6pm though so it's going to be a long day!

@sarahhh1984 ah mine is 9:30am so not bad; would've got nothing done if 6pm!

Do you know flavour already? Or finding out tomorrow? We are finding out if we can. X

@GiveMummyTheWhizzer We're finding out tomorrow all being well. So excited to know - if only so I can sort through the multiple bags of Dad's clothes!

19w today and I had my 20 week scan on Friday. All good so going pram shopping today! Anyone else not got a bump yet? I'm still exactly the same as pre-pregnancy and getting impatient for a cute little bump!

Hi all, I haven't been onto MN for ages, have had so much going on. 20w scan completed here and thankfully all fine, sickness starting to get better and bump getting quite big!! Now just hoping these next few months go quickly! Feeling loads of squirms and boots now and super hormonal! Hope everyone doing well! I saw some Facebook group requests after reading through the thread from May, assuming others have added people but if anyone outstanding I am happy to help add to the group!

Oh I said I would join fb group when approaching 20w (on Tuesday) so if someone can let me know how to that would be great.

Am really wanting to know what we are having as have seen some lovely clothes on sale rails and sales online!

Have got a B bump at the mo...friend who is also pregnant has got a lovely round bump...have got bump jealousy!!

@TheUbercornMum can I be added to the Facebook group please? TIA

Just saw my message from yesterday. Not sure why it autocorrected to Dad's clothes. Should have said girls'! 😂

Hope scan went well today, @GiveMummyTheWhizzer.

@sarahhh1984 all perfect. Have to go back for spine measurements as he was laid funny. Team blue again here.

Hope you get on ok later. X

@GiveMummyTheWhizzer! Congratulations. Hope baba is more cooperative when you go back! Today is going so slowly for me...

@TheUbercornMum please could I be added to Facebook?

Has anyone had their whooping cough vaccine yet? Wondering if it has side effects?

@wejammin I had mine last week. Only side effect I experienced was a sore arm for about 24 hours after the injection. There could be other side effects but that was the only one I got.

Just has scan. All went well and we found out we're having another girl!

Congratulations @sarahhh1984

Thank you @GiveMummyTheWhizzer! We're thrilled!

Congratulations @sarahhh1984! We had our scan today too, all good with a lovely active baby. We are staying team yellow. :)

Had our scan today as well, also didn’t find out sex! Thinking I might join the Facebook crowd now... how do I do that?

Congratulations @Emelene and @Aussi!

@TheUbercornMum could you let me know how to be added to the dB group aswell please?

@Sarah1984 @Emelene @Aussi congratulations

@wejammin I also only had a sore arm but it was really painful to the point I couldn’t sleep it did go away the second day after though

Congrats all on your scans! So exciting to hear what people are having! Mine is 3rd July and I have such a busy week away with work this week that hopefully it’ll fly by! Then after that think I’ll hopefully be ok to join the Facebook group!

I also have my appointment through to discuss birth options. I’m not really sure what to do. I know I have lots of time to decide and I fly wildly from wanting a home birth to elcs. My fist ds was emcs the second was vbac but then he ended up in special care for 10 days and it was all a bit traumatic so I’m not sure what to actually do this time!!

@NoCatsHere a week til our scan and a busy week (including glamping in a yurt with a toddler) so I'm hoping it'll fly past too!
My understanding from my MW is that at the birth choices appointment if you have a clear plan that you want an ecls (or other) they won't try to change your mind as long as it's safe, but if you are undecided they will present all the info from your previous birth/s and make a recommendation on what they think is your best option (in my trust anyway). So hopefully you will get all the info you need to make the decision that is right for you at that appointment 🤞.

Had scan today and all looking good, team blue for us! At least I didn't give away all DS clothes!!
