January 2019, thread 2

[Leliana]

The first thread is almost full, so here we go: post here if you're expecting a baby in January 2019!

@jellyfish2210 I'm quite excited about the prospect of a new year baby! Although not sure about doing Christmas nearly 9 months pregnant - might have to try and persuade my parents that as they live in the middle of nowhere, coming to us where the hospital is 10 minutes away would set my mind at ease

Hey, I'd love to join the Facebook group but I'm worried that people on my friends list will be able to see that I've joined.. will it come up on their news feeds? We haven't told everyone our news yet and I don't want them to find out like that haha.

@esmith900 No, it's a secret group

Hi Everyone! So we had our scan yesterday and everything went well for us for once :). Rainbow baby due 29th December (originally due 4th Jan) but will prob end up being born January anyway :).

Anyone else really struggling with sickness I'm 10 weeks tomorrow and cant stop heeving all day and being sick little bits

@bakingdemon I know what you mean about being pregnant for Christmas. Last year my MIL came to us for Christmas and I was so ill but still managed to cook. This year I'm hoping my parents will come to us so that my mum can cook...

@Littlebump2018 congratulations!!!! Beautiful pic. So happy for you!!xxx

@Ash1992 I'm 11+5 today and it's only been the last two or three days max that I've noticed the nausea starting to subside slightly (now it's down to about 50% of the time which is an amazing improvement!) so hopefully you're not too far away from some relief!

@Jennac are you still vomiting or it's just the nausea ? I hope so I feel like it's never ending I am more dry heeving so hopefully it's coming to end . It just seems to stay with me all day at work trying to hide it from my colleagues too

Aww Littlebump what a good picture! Congratulations
I'm 10 weeks today, the nausea has subsided a bit although still comes and goes and still struggling to eat certain things. I'm still feeling absolutely exhausted though, could sleep for Britain. Anyone else feeling frustrated with not getting anything done?

Thanks so much for your nice comments we are so happy at the moment :) xxx

Got my scan date: 17th July. Will be 13 weeks by then. Also having a private scan this Friday (will be 9+3). After a MMC/blighted ovum last autumn, we are hoping for some reassurance that things are progressing okay this time.

@mwnca best of luck on Friday. Sending lots of positive wishes I also have a scan on Friday morning...scary stuff but fingers crossed it's a lucky day all round!

I'm actually really looking forward to being heavily pregnant over Christmas! It means that I won't have to go anywhere that I don't want to go, DP and I will cook lunch together and I will spend Boxing day lying in bed with chocolate and movies!

Hey guys hope it’s ok for me to join...

age: 23 DC#1

Found out today I’m 8 weeks which is a surprise as I only found out I was pregnant on Sunday and didn’t expect to be so far along..

EDD: 31.01.19

@Hcna23 hello and welcome!! Congrats how did you find out you are 8 weeks along? I think that's a nice time to find out as the most riskiest weeks are already behind you!! Yay!

@jennac thankyou!
I had my midwife booking in appointment today.. and from what she worked out I’m 8 weeks won’t know for sure til my dating scan in a few weeks

Had my initial midwife appointment yesterday, they were so lovely.

Have been referred to the foetal medicine team though due to my older daughters medical issues. Reckon I'll need additional cardio scans.

Overdid it a bit yesterday moving house stuff and building furniture, taking it easy today but I'm quite sore.

Sorry I've been quiet for a couple of days - busy at work!

I was retching a lot earlier this week, but have felt better today. I'm 10+4 today so hopefully the hormones are starting to settle!

I'm looking forward to being heavily pregnant over Christmas too. I'm going to volunteer to play Mary in our church Nativity

My husband is a minister, hoping for a real live baby for the nativity

Seeing as he won’t let me get the donkey I want

Haha Sexnotgender baby might be a good substitute for a donkey!
I'm getting fed up of feeling so rubbish, though I'd turned a corner earlier this week but been sick yesterday and today and literally spent the whole evening on the couch

Good luck @jennac Hope all goes well this morning.

@mwnca thank you so much! Really appreciated! Have you had your private scan yet?? If not best of luck to you!!
I barely slept a wink last night...silly I know. Had the scan this morning and all good!! Yay! Strong heart beat and now have a due date of 1st January  it really is the most incredible experience seeing the baby like that! Blown away!xx
