At least we avoided Christmas babies!

[SureLook]

Hi all. Moving over from the Christmas due date thread to continue the chats and support x

@VanessaShanessaJenkins99 aww, I'm sorry. The due dates and milestones are hard. Will you mark it in any way?
I was due in January too but I'm definitely mourning my August baby more. Even though I'm pregnant again I do think I should have a five month old with me. It's hard!

Hey Guys, I've started my period this morning. I'm really gutted.
I think im going to leave the thread,
I am so happy for you all.
Thanks for the support xx lots of Love xx

@VanessaShanessaJenkins99 I'm so so sorry 😞 I hope you and your DH do get your second child soon, and that you have peace with it all whilst you're trying. I totally understand why you'd want to bow out. Thank you so much for all the love and support ❤️ xxx

@VanessaShanessaJenkins99 I'm very sorry to hear that. I totally understand you wanting to leave the thread. Thanks for everything. Sending hugs ❤️

Hi @Clara202 & @GrizzlyTheBear how are you both doing?x

Well hi!
I'm fine thanks, everything ok at the moment. I've forgotten exactly how far along I am but maybe coming up for 16 weeks? No symptoms at the moment thank goodness.
How are you? I've forgotten when you are due! 🙈 Are you struggling with this one or okay so far?

@GrizzlyTheBear no symptoms for you? You usually get really bad sickness, don't you? Hopefully you're escaping that this time 🤞🏻
I'm due the 27th of April. I'm 35 weeks tomorrow. It has flown by since Christmas. I'm starting to get big and heavy and uncomfortable now. Second pregnancy with a toddler hits different!

@SureLook wow, so close to the end! At least you will not be huge and uncomfortable when the warmer weather comes, phew. April is a lovely month for a baby.
I was sick and tired and all the first trimester things, but it all went away by 13 weeks thankfully, and I'm in that blissful phase where you aren't actually sure if you're really pregnant 🤣 Unfortunately it's a short phase...

@GrizzlyTheBear yeah, thank god for that. DD was a November baby so it's gonna be much nicer having an April baby. Especially with the weather getting nicer.
Ah, ok. At least it's gone now. Will you find out the gender at your anatomy scan?

Hope everyone is well. I’m about 8 weeks behind you @SureLook I think. I’m doing well so far but definitely beginning to slow down a bit. No sickness thigh for which I’m eternally grateful!

@Clara202 so you're about 27 weeks? And no nasty symptoms? You're doing well! I'm pretty sure I was dying from heartburn and all sorts by then 🤣
@SureLook yeah I think we will find out the sex at the scan. Have you two found out?

@Clara202 that's so good! Did you go ahead with IVF in the end or did you conceive naturally? That's great that you're feeling so good!

@GrizzlyTheBear oh, so exciting! Yeah, we found out. We're having another girl. Oh, same. I'm on Omeprazole now 😂😂

@SureLook Bit of a long story! Started the process, cancelled, started again, didn’t need it in the end. Yes I was worried about being really sick but luckily it didn’t happen.

@GrizzlyTheBear I’m dreading heartburn coming because I did have it at the start and I have read that it can come back in the third trimester but I’m hoping I’ll get away with not getting it again

Haha oh dear @SureLook ! I'm sure I'm heading for the omeprazole too! And @Clara202 as well; we will probably all be on it 🙄
Last time I survived on Rennies but no doubt it'll be worse this time. Everything seems to get worse every time 😂
A girl will be lovely! Having a sister is a really wonderful thing for them.

@Clara202 amazing. I'm delighted for you! It all worked out in the end.

@GrizzlyTheBear yeah, Gaviscon gave me maybe 10 minutes of relief. It was just killing me. I needed the good stuff 😂
Yeah, I'm delighted she's having a little sister. I hope they'll be besties and want to do spa days and afternoon tea with me when they're older 😂
