[Hopefulprincess]

New thread ladies 🥳

@Kiskacsa awwww congratulations!!!!!!!!!! Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy do you have a name? Xx

Soooo I had my next scan today!! Baby is doing well 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Starting to think this one is going to be ok 💖💖💖 9w+2
How is everyone else?

@Hopefulprincess sorry for the slow reply - yay at your last scan, hope it’s all still going well?

@Coastaldreamer any news your end lovely?

I’m 22w today - feels mad! I’ve had my 20w scan and little Blobert (you may be able to guess name @Hopefulprincess!) is doing well - here he is sucking his thumb :-)

Hey ladies!

Sorry haven't really been on here much recently!

@Kiskacsa wow the weeks have flown for you!! Little Blobert is looking very healthy! That's great news

@Hopefulprincess I'm so happy to hear things are progressing well with you! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

I'm actually 9w+1 today so just a little behind you. We went for the early private scan at 8 weeks and little peanut is doing very well 🥰

Got my booking in appointment tomorrow and basically going to ask the midwife for some advice... the sickness and nausea is unreal! I've lost a few kg too. The headaches I'm getting too feel so debilitating 😞 I know it's all worth it but I'm having a rough time of it!

Did you guys feel the same?

Xx

@Coastaldreamer - first trimester was knackering. I was really nauseous but not sick - appetite was really down too. Losing some weight isn’t unusual but do ask midwife or GP if they can help - there are meds that can help

@Coastaldreamer headaches could be dehydration if you’re being sick - try to drink extra if you can

@Kiskacsa @Hopefulprincess hey ladies how're you getting on?

I'm now 13w+2... first scan went very well!

Dare I curse it too by saying both my headaches and nausea/sickness are slowly improving too! Tiredness is still hitting me a lot but I can just about cope with that, nothing wrong with sleeping a bit more each day :)

Hope you're both well x

Congratulations for surviving trimester no 1! Really glad scan 1 went well 😊 any pics?

@Hopefulprincess how is it going with you?

25w6 here - pgp is a bugger but glad to be plodding along and feeling him kick now ☺️

@Kiskacsa how cute!!!!! Is it Robert? 😍
@Coastaldreamer glad your feeling better and bubba looks cute!
I’m 15+2 today and sooooo poorly still! Was in hospital last week for few days some of my waters ruptured on Monday :( baby is doing ok and I retained some which is good!!! Am back this Friday to have another check up . Have been drinking loads and strict rest , here is baby with what fluid is left . I think it’s a boy xx

This one was 2 weeks before , looking at me and lots of fluid !

@hopefulprincess that all sounds very stressful! Fingers crossed that everything keeps going well and the sickness lifts for you soon!

It is Robert :-) it’s my DH’s middle name but we both like it :-)

@Kiskacsa aw you are doing so well! What do the kicks feel like? The midwife told me my placenta is covering baby like a duvet so I'll feel the first ones on the sides!

@Hopefulprincess hope you're getting on ok after the hospital stay. It's good they are keeping a close eye on you.

Attached some pics of little bubba. I love the second one, baby is clearly chilling with hands behind the head 😅. Already so in love 🥰

@Coastaldreamer - very cute!!

I have an anterior placenta too - which means kicks to the “tummy” are muffled by the placenta. I didn’t feel anything convincing til 22 weeks or so - first baby plus some excess weight plus placenta delayed it a bit. Initially I couldn’t be sure it wasn’t just gas. I felt blob mostly at night - where he will often kick very low or on “side” - I’d say a 10o clock or 2 o clock from my belly button rather than all the way round. Now he’s an active little chap - either placenta has moved, or he’s kicking harder now.

@Kiskacsa lovely name!!!!
@Coastaldreamer cute pics!! Oooo this is exciting 🥰
Only 3 days till my next scan il post pics if all is good :) I can feel little kicks but not often they are like bubbles popping but then it’s my 4th. I wish they were more frequent I’d worry less but can’t choose these things haha. We should have a WhatsApp group so easier to keep in contact 💖

@Hopefulprincess @Kiskacsa how are we ladies?

Did the scan go well @Hopefulprincess ?

@Kiskacsa you must be huge now?!

X

@Coastaldreamer becoming ever more whale like. In 3rd trimester now - 29 weeks yesterday - and feeling very tired again! The heartburn is also extremely tedious. How are things with you, how far along are you at this stage?

@Kiskacsa you're almost there... kinda!

Have you already got what you need for when baby is here? We're not getting anything till next year but talking about whether we want the next to me cot thing etc...

I'm finally out of the sickness stage, it was still persistent in the mornings now and then but hopefully it's all gone

I'm 17 weeks today, had my check up yday and heard the heartbeat 💓... bets are on a girl from the midwife!

Can't wait for my next scan which is in 2 weeks today 🥰

How is everyone?

My munchkin was born 6 weeks early after I developed preeclampsia- he was 6 weeks old yesterday. Time flies! January was one long hospital stay but we’ve now been home as long as he was in NICU.

Hope all is well with you @Hopefulprincess, @Coastaldreamer?

Congratulations @Kiskacsa on the safe arrival of your boy!! Sorry to hear you suffered with preeclampsia- I keep hearing so many people having this! Did they have to keep you in HDU?

How's life with a newborn etc ?

I am now 28.5 weeks...! Time is in that dragging stage, starting to get heavy and slow in my movements 😂 but all is well with myself and baby so I can't complain

Hope you're also doing well @Hopefulprincess

@Coastaldreamer I was in hospital for 10 days before he was born (I was nearly discharged then his umbilical doppler showed he was safer out than in) then he was in NICU briefly then SCBU for nearly 3 weeks - I went in on New Year’s Eve and we escaped on the 29th. Can’t believe he’s 6 weeks old now!

Hope you’re cooking well! Time does start to drag but try to enjoy it - I mourned the 6 weeks I didn’t get!

@kisk congratulations!!!!! Sorry it didn’t end as planned but glad your both ok now 💙
How is he now?
@Coastaldreamer

@Coastaldreamer we’re really close! I’m 30+2 but he’s coming the week of 37weeks I havnt got a date yet and he’s still nameless!
Feel you on the heavy bit, this has by far been most difficult pregnancy! Spd is killing Iv not had the bloom yet, have had transfusion as aneamia so bad but he’s doing well! Here’s a scan from exactly 2 weeks ago of him swearing 🙈 he’s 3/5 engaged and has been 4 weeks so it was difficult to get a good image,
Been thinking of you ladies so glad your ok

Hello ladies! Hope lockdown pregnancies are going ok? Where are you guys up to?

Hey @Kiskacsa @Hopefulprincess I'm 38 weeks now and can't wait till baby is here!!

How's you getting on with your bubba ?

Could anyone give me advice on my bbt chart? Ovulation confirmed via bloods. Came back at 21 at doctor said anything above 16 confirms ovulation.
I'm currently 14dpo. Bfn on frer with fmu. GUTTED!
Last months chart I declined at 11dpo and AF showed her face at 14dpo. My temps are the highest they've ever been this morning. Any advice?
