Due May 2020 (thread 3)

Carrying on from thread 2!

@facevalue well said re: body changing and creating life! What an incredible thing to do, so what if we don’t look the same as we did before.... I’m 35, I don’t have my 18yr old body anymore either but wouldn’t change a thing!!

I know most people don’t mean harm, it’s usually people at work who make the comments and I know they’re just making conversation and getting excited about things. Just hard when it’s constant. No excuse for the comment from a ‘friend’ saying they thought I had put weight on though.... will be avoiding them for a while I think!!

Hope everyone had a good week :)

Just got my NHS combined screening results, a nice relief! We also did the Harmony test on Saturday, so waiting for those results to come through this week and we can relax until the next scan in January! Can't wait to find out gender with the Harmony results!

@Spuntik glad the flight was bearable but sorry you were emotional! I am flying Saturday to the US east coast, for a week. Taking a bunch of snacks on the plane is a good tip, thank you! Where did you fly to? Sounds like the food situation there is tricky!

Hi all, just had my 12 week scan. Baby wasn’t behaving today and wouldn’t budge from curled up position and doing a head stand but otherwise all looks perfect. Given due date 29/5. Has anyone else been given this date? I’ve got a sneaky feelings it’s a girl but don’t want to convince myself too much 😩 I already have 2 boys ☺️

@fluffyunicorns86 my one is 4th of May too! Few more weeks and we'll be half way there

@Niki93 I am 15 week and due 11th May too! Xx

Had my scan today if anyone wants to take a guess. It’s beginning to feel real now!

Hi everyone I'm Natasha 34 mum if 2 girls step mum of 2 girls and hoping this is a boy. Due date 23rd May 2020

@RacBell Had my 12wk scan last Friday and due date was moved to the 29th of May so we're due date buddies

Had my 12 week scan on Saturday and was moved up to 13 weeks 2 days! This was one of the pics we were given, we can’t figure out what we are looking it! Anyone any idea?

Hi everyone, I have my 16 week appointment this week. Do they listen to the heartbeat at this appointment? I haven’t felt the baby move yet (first pregnancy) due on 6th May.

My midwife told me that at the 16 week one she will be listening to the heart beat. I will be 17 weeks by the time I see her though.

@Hayley220 I had my 16 week appointment last Friday (due 4th May) and she had no issues finding the heart beat ☺️

@Hayley220 some trusts listen for the heartbeat at 16 weeks and some don't. Because the heartbeat isn't always easy to find this early on some don't even try so the mum to be doesn't stress out.

I had my 16 week appointment last Friday and they listened in but I know a few people on the May fb group where the midwife didn't listen in xx

Would anyone be able to take a guess using nub theory at the gender on my 12 + 3 scan picture

@Hayley220 I had my 16 week app last Friday and she found the heartbeat immediately. It isn’t done in all areas though

I have a spa day booked mid December. Does anyone know where I could get a one piece swimming costume from?! Never worn one but don’t fancy a bikini right now. Do I buy a maternity one or just go a size up?? Sorry for my complete ignorance 🙈

@Sunshine8888 I got one from Next I was 9weeks when I needed it and just bought 1 size up it still has a little room to grow.... probably wouldn't buy a maternity one until I had a proper bump.

I got one in my size in the maternity wear in Matalan but was a few years ago now lol

Does anyone keep getting random stomach aches? I’ve got one now it feels like a ‘pulse’ not overly painful but irritating. I got stomach ache this morning after going for a wee too (tmi)

Thanks, I ended up going on jojo maman bebe on my lunch break and spent a fortune on all sorts of maternity stuff which I said I wouldn’t do!! 🙈

@jeffsar4 oh dear that’s quite an epic fail 😂 but congratulations on your baby boy!
