I'm with you @Mrs71 , feel like I'm wishing my life away just to get to the scan. I finally have my booking in appointment tomorrow though, so that's progress.

Aw thanks girls 🥰 Here it is again - cropped this time!

Honestly, such a relief - I was exactly the same, it was all I could think about. You'll all be fine 😘

@Beth804 ♥️♥️

Lovely scan pic! They will be coming thick and fast now I think. I seem to remember quite a few of us have scans next week!

@Beth804 oh wow! How amazing is the human body!! Beautiful pics! Are they identical or fraternal twins if you don't mind me asking? Xx

Just saying hello and hoping everyone is well so this stays in my threads.

This weeks crazy symptom - urgently needing the loo, to find I am then actually not passing much urine at all. Bizarre!

Amazing scan photo @Beth804!

I am having a very rough week. My 'morning' sickness has ramped up a lot. But it is very bad in the evenings. I can't keep dinner down, spewing once or twice nearly every night. In the mornings I'm totally fine! Very odd. I'm 12 weeks Monday so just hoping it passes asap!

Feeling good emotionally though (less hormonal) and the boobs don't really hurt anymore which is a plus! Pregnancy is so odd! Also because I spewed up every single liquid in my belly and had to go straight to sleep after, couldn't really drink anything else, I also didnt wake in the night for the loo so a good night's sleep finally lol.

First scan on Weds next week.... can't wait.... not long now @Mrs71!! Anyone else on the 19th? xx

@Mrs71 I'm feeling exactly the same 😢 apart from my stomach being huge I still don't feel pregnant. I think it'll kick in as soon as I have that 12 week reassurance. Weirdly though, I've been feeling quite sick today. It's actually worrying me more because it's not something I've had before. So I'm wondering if it's non pregnancy related. Then worrying if it means something has gone wrong. I'm still feeling totally exhausted and energy-less all the time, I'm looking forward to that passing soon.

How are you feeling now?

Just waiting on this scan next Friday - impatiently! When is yours again? Xx

@Mrs71 sorry, I just seen that it's Wednesday 🤦🏽‍♀️😂 aww not long now. The weekend will no doubt fly by so it's only a few days next week for you to get through! 💓 x

@Mammasj I'm feeling slightly better but still so anxious. Not long to wait now I'm at work Monday and Tuesday so days will fly by. My stomach actually has a bloat and by evening I do look pregnant 😂 but still not enough to reassure me. Yours isn't too far away now either. 💕 xx

@mamaskelz Iv got mine on Monday when I’ll be 13+4 feels like forever away even though I know it’s less than a week now! I’m already feeling really nervous about it but I can’t wait to start telling people it’s been a long time coming x

Mammasj · 18/02/2020 12:48

@mamaskelz Mine is Friday too!!! And I'm absolutely terrified. This week my bloat has almost disappeared. I still have a mamma pouch from previous children but it's definitely come down and I feel totally normal and un-pregnant! 🙁 it's taking all I have to not let the paranoia and anxiety make me go crazy! I can't wait for this scan to be over with! Xx

megan81088 · 18/02/2020 13:36

@Mammasj I have no symptoms either I feel totally normal! I had a private scan a few weeks back because it was driving me crazy and that was all fine but the reassurance only lasted a few days I’m now worrying about Monday can’t wait for it to be over and for me to feel reassured again x

Mammasj · 18/02/2020 14:35

@mamaskelz I don't the exact same thing. Had a scan at 9 weeks but the reassurance wore off fast! Oh yours is Monday is it? Mine is 21st, on Friday. Either way, we don't have long to wait now. I just want it over with. I'm sick of worrying 😭 xx

@Mammasj I feel exactly the same, it's been the longest 12 weeks of my life, so stressful!!! I have that mum pouch too and at the end of the day I literally bloat so much and I swear I look 9 months pregnant 😭😭😭. I'm going to be massive

Mammasj · 18/02/2020 20:09

@mamaskelz Haha you're not the only one don't worry. I will definitely be cooking up a 12lber! 😩😖😂 my last two were 9lb 10oz and 10lb 7oz!! I make HUGE babies!! 😂 x

Good luck to those who have their scans this week 💕 don't worry too much about symptoms disappearing, my only symptoms were sore boobs for the first 8 weeks, and then tiredness! Also my nipples have changed, they are quite a bit larger! Don't know if anyone else has noticed that 😳

I'm 14 weeks today! 🎉 my fatigue has got even worse in the last 2 days, and am really struggling past 7pm. Maybe I'm trying to fight something off, my boy has got a cold recently but it really sucks, especially when I still have things to do in the evening!

Had my scan this morning, still got a heartbeat and fortunately everything else as fine/normal as they can tell at this stage. I am so thankful and relieved. EDD 30th August which is no change. The baby was very active and I could have watched it all day!

Has my scan today! Measuring 12+5 so a little ahead. DD is now 28 /8.

It was so magical seeing baby for the first time! It is a little wriggler, was so active, waving and touching it's face and not being cooperative with the camera haha. It was amazing.

Attaching a pic x
