Hello and congratulations, lovely lot.

It's been a bumpy road so DP and I aren't telling anyone until late September. But I need to talk to someone!!!

How are you?

Anyone thought of any baby names yet ? I have a 2 year old boy Finn. My second name is Esther and my mums name is Esther we were both born around Easter so I was thinking Maya Esther? I watched so many name videos and seem to be stuck on this name ! What do ye think ? X

FinnsMammy · 29/11/2021 12:09

Sorry I meant my middle name is Esther not my surname lol 😂

Thank you @FinnsMammy - just want it done and out the way. We had a gender scan at 16 weeks and all looked well then. We're having a little boy 💙

My 4 year old boy was determined that baby is w boy. He will be thrilled, as will our daughter.

Everything fine! They said he looks perfectly normal with nothing to worry about at all. Feel so relieved xx

cupcakesandglitter · 29/11/2021 19:46

@FinnsMammy love that name! ❤️ a week tomorrow!! Very excited. I've been quite unwell so I'm just hoping he's okay. I'm sure I've had some kicks today but will be nice to know for sure!

Congrats @Staryflight445 @Harlequin1088 x

Hi all, hope your are well. I've not been keeping up, struggling with very little time tbh.
Got my 20 week scan on Saturday (at 21 weeks). We're keeping the sex a surprise, so hoping the sonographer doesn't give it away.
Has a f b group been set up yet? If not, would people be interested? I have one for my first baby and they are such a supportive group. Very non-judgemental and been a life saver at times. Still very much a group 3 years on

Griffer · 02/12/2021 11:00

Here's a link to the Facebook group I've set up, if anyone would like to join?

There is a FB group which lots of us on the thread are on www.facebook.com/groups/dueinapril22/?ref=share

God ur all past your 20 weeks ! And such great news!!

I am just so anxious. Anatomy/annomoly scan is not until Dec 21st.
We will be 21w4d but it has just worked out that way.
I can't help feeling the sonographer was very quite at my last scan 17w5d, but Dr said everything looked good.
I am praying and manifesting all will be perfect!!
I cannot wait for it to be done

Griffer · 02/12/2021 11:45

Thank you @wannabeamummysobad
I've joined. 515 members is a bit overwhelming! I'll see how it goes.

I'll keep the link available to the one I've started, incase there are others that would prefer a smaller group. The one for my first child has 89 members and feels really close.

Depends what people want from the group. I'll try and keep up a bit with this thread now too

Ladder789 · 02/12/2021 11:46

I would like to feel lots more movement but I said the same last time and both babies seemed to be quite active.

Are you all getting much movement flutters?

@Ladder789

I'm getting lots of strong movements, with them visible and my partner can feel it too. I'm 20 weeks. I had the same with my first and getting movements from early on too. I must make strong kickers! Placenta position and thickness of belly fat can impede the feeling. (I'm about mid-way in the overweight category, so not exactly thin). My sister barely felt any movement at all.
