[Keyboard91]

New thread ladies :)

Has to be the most active thread on MN!

Feel free to state how far you are/EDD in your first post here so we have a reminder of who is where :)

Happy 2nd trimester to everyone now I think!

I’m 13+6 and due March 26th ❤️

@blondie87 I was in shock! I took a tumble down a cliff/hill face that had the sea crashing directly below it. Terrifying!

Crikey @ttc19!!

@Jesskir89 I was there too but only got a changing mat, you did well getting all that for next to nothing!

@blondie87 as long as you're OK :) and I really enjoyed it thanks. @DerbyshireGirly I paid for the mum and baby pack 5 pound but got 20 worth in it. Then got a free pack, free bottle from mam and found a cheap stall next to lidl and lidl had bags for a pound with loads in it. Dh was bored but I was in my eliment looking for bargains and free stuff lol

Looks like you got some bargains @Jesskir89. I've got tickets for the London one next month Think that'll be an expensive day as hoping to get the last few big bits!

I just came back from watching still game at the hydro (if there's any Scottish women in here) and I swear I felt it move a few times. Gonna pretend it loves it already. Will be in its genes.

@dinosauraddict it was brilliant I loved it. We went to the Trafford Centre after for some shopping then food it was just a lovely day. That's fell erfectly for you next month my dh won't let me look at prams etc yet he wants to wait until 20 weeks and you'll be well past that then :)

We don't have any baby shows near here. I wanted to look at things after the scan but he doesn't want to buy anythhing til we get Christmas out the way 😱 I will have to sneak in a few little things before then

Had our private scan and after an hour of jumping up and down and walking around, we found out we're having a girl 💗 couldn't be happier x

@daniX91 congratulations hun x

@ thankyou 😘 x

Congrats @DaniX91

Thankyou @Dinosauraddict apparently I have an anterior placenta, anyone else got or had this before?

Congratulations @DaniX91. I had one with my second pregnancy and it didn’t cause any issues other than not feeling movement as keenly.

Any body felt round ligament pains think I've been having them I'm 15+1 this pregnancy lark is a worrying business 😮

@maria94 hey ! Just saw your message about aches. I'm 18 weeks tomorrow are you too?
Iv had a few aches and pains when iv been rushing around a lot. And then I sometimes get sharp pains too. Have you had any movements yet? X

Ladies, thought this might come up, a couple have mentioned about home dopplers. Please don't get one, they are really NOT recommended for home use, and have been linked to mums not going into hospital at the right time etc. I know it's tempting but please don't risk it!
I always listen at 16 weeks but midwives don't have to listen at any point and quite a few don't at 16 weeks, they wait until 20 week scan has been and all normal. Most will do it if you specifically ask. I can pretty reliably find it from 12 weeks on but depends on tummy size etc etc. Sorry rant over!

@kelsnyp I've been having ligament pain since about 12 week I'm now 15 plus 2 and not had them for a week.

@kelsnyp yes I've been having them, some sharp stabbing pains at sides and bottom of belly. Sometimes really sharp, one the other day nearly doubled me over.

I also think I may have felt baby, really not sure as only 14+3 but had quite a few flutters/ feeling of light tickling form the inside. They were fairly low which would make sense but now I'm feeling them a bit higher around same height as belly button so not sure!

Well said @threegreensheep

@threegreensheep 👍🏻

I wouldn't buy one, I think it would make me panic unnecessarily if I couldn't find the heartbeat.

Exactly what I had originally, I don't know if they've changed it since but with DS I got it at 16 weeks and told they didn't do it at every appointment but if I wanted it I could ask (my midwife just did it without me asking).

Just found this thread, didn't realise it was already on #4. I'm due with DC1 on 26th March .

Hi all. I'm 14 weeks + 4. Due 26th March. First pregnancy so it's all very new to me. Been really lucky not to have any symptoms apart from sore boobs. So excited but also a bit nervous for this journey.

@DaniX91 I also have been told i have anterior placenta, midwife said its nothing to worry about, the only time placenta position matters is if it is low lying.

Welcome @MiaMoo007 and @Cassie124 were due date twins :)
