@EllieWales awww excellent news what a relief for you 😁

EllieWales · 21/12/2025 20:52

Good luck for tomorrow @Lh4503 it’ll be so exciting to see baby again before Christmas! Hope your daughter is doing better?

Hope everyone is well and enjoying all the festive treats (I know I am) ☺️

Lh4503 · 22/12/2025 21:02

Thank you @EllieWales❀️ sorry only just seen this I dont seem to get notified. I was really nervous, but all went well, I'm actually further along than expected, 13 weeks xmas eve. Baby was moving around loads, proper little wriggler. πŸ₯Ί Just so ready to relax now and tell everyone at Christmas 😊
Yes shes doing much better thank you. Arms in a lighter cast now and no pain so 3 weeks and that should be off 🀞

How are you feeling?

EllieWales · 22/12/2025 23:35

Aww how lovely @Lh4503 what’s your due date? My son was a proper wriggler in scans and he’s still like that now the boy can’t sit down, good luck πŸ˜‚ such a special Christmas for us ❀️ glad your daughters doing better too, hope there’s lots of Christmas presents for the brave girl!

I still haven’t had an appointment letter for my 12 week scan so I need to call them tomorrow. We’ve moved house so I’m wondering if it’s somehow ended up going to our old address despite my efforts to make sure that didn’t happen! Other than that I’m doing well despite the aches and pains, tiredness and breathlessness πŸ˜‚

Lh4503 · 23/12/2025 07:12

@EllieWalesMy official due date is now 1st July 😊❀️ Yes my daughter was the same and everyone calls her the pocket rocket, was hoping this one would be more chilled 🀣 I know feeling so lucky. Thank you for asking about her too ❀️

Do you live in Wales? (Assuming by your username) If you download the NHS Wales app you can see any appointments made for you on there. I was notified on there before I had the letter or text from my midwife to confirm. And all test results/medical history ect is in there too.

Glad your doing well 😊 I bet your son is excited for Christmas now? πŸŽ„

bigbaggyblue · 24/12/2025 07:45

@EllieWalesgreat news about your scan 😁 we’ve got one today, just a private one at 7w3 before we tell family tomorrow! Hopefully all is as should be 😁

EllieWales · 24/12/2025 08:31

@Lh4503www I wonder if it’ll be a June or July baby, did you go over with your daughter? My son came three weeks early and I’m hoping this one will want to make an early appearance too! I’m also hoping for a more chilled one this time around so I know the feeling 🀣

I do, I’ve tried the app but there’s nothing on there which is odd! I phoned EPU yesterday and they said I’m booked in for the 5th but couldn’t give me a time?? I’ll try the midwife next week and see if she can shed some light!

Good luck today @bigbaggyblue let us know how you get on ☺️

All manic here today and everyone’s super excited for tomorrow, have a fab Christmas all ❀️

Lh4503 · 24/12/2025 08:49

@EllieWalesCould go either way I guess. I went into labour with my daughter on her due date but she took 4 days to come. 😩 Hopefully early this time 🀞 I've booked a gender scan for the 17th πŸ₯° and we're telling my daughter today im SO excited!! 13 weeks today so in the second trimester already πŸ˜† madness!

Aww thats annoying, it was a bit of a faff to sign up and get on there i remember but works ok now. Yes you should definitely have a time thats very dd they didnt tell you. My midwife told me so deffo get in contact with her. Not long to wait!!

@bigbaggyblueomg good luck today, how exciting πŸ˜ŠπŸŽ„ hope all goes well.

Hope you all have an amazing Christmas ❀️❀️

bigbaggyblue · 24/12/2025 11:30

Well we almost were late for the appointment πŸ˜‚ but great scan, measuring bang on with a good heartbeat 😁 very relived and happy to show family tomorrow!!!

Lh4503 · 24/12/2025 12:20

Awww @bigbaggybluecongratulations! Now time to enjoy Christmas and telling everyone πŸ˜Šβ€οΈπŸŽ„

EllieWales · 27/12/2025 10:20

Hope you both had a fab Christmas with baby announcements! I’m so relieved for the cat to be out of the bag now @bigbaggyblue @Lh4503

Lh4503 · 27/12/2025 13:34

@EllieWalesYes it was so good to finally tell everyone, it was a long 7 weeks 😩 hope you both had a lovely christmas πŸŽ„ @bigbaggyblue

bigbaggyblue · 28/12/2025 18:10

@EllieWales@Lh4503aww yeah we had a great Christmas thank you! Tiring πŸ˜‚! I managed to get some xonvea for the GP which saved Christmas because I was feeling absolutely dreadful with constant nausea and it’s worked better than I ever imagined! We’ve told all the family now 😁

Insidemyownhead · 01/01/2026 19:23

Hey everyone, I hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year.
It’s been a good few weeks since I updated, but I do still watch this thread hoping to see more bfp on the page.
just an update to say I’m now over the half way mark and we’ll be welcoming a baby boy.
wishing everyone the best for the year ahead

Lh4503 · 02/01/2026 09:49

@bigbaggyblueawww very exciting. Sorry you were feeling so rubbish but glad the medication has helped. Hope you feel better now! πŸ™‚

@InsidemyownheadHope you had a lovely christmas and new year! 😊 awww amazing news, glad everything is going well.

We've booked a private scan for the 17th Jan and we will be finding out the gender of our baby then 😊❀️ so excited!

Happy new year to you all!

EllieWales · 02/01/2026 16:42

Lovely to hear from you @Insidemyownhead and how exciting you’re expecting a boy! I’m still unsure if I want to find out the gender of course we’ll be happy with whatever we have but we have 2 boys already so it would be nice if we were having a girl 🀞

@Lh4503 not long until you find out, do you have a feeling what you might be having? ☺️

@bigbaggyblue sorry you’ve been ill, the nausea is horrendous! I feel like my pregnancy symptoms have started to ease which is nice I’m even feeing less zombie like these days! Glad the medication helped. How many weeks are you now? 😊

bigbaggyblue · 02/01/2026 20:38

@EllieWalesohh bet it feels amazing to feel a bit more with it, I can’t wait! I’ll be 9 weeks on Sunday, hoping only a couple more weeks of this and then I’ll perk up too and can hopefully stop or reduce the xonvea as that definitely adds to the exhaustion!

Lh4503 · 03/01/2026 22:57

@EllieWalesI have absolutely no idea, my daughter and husband both would like a boy and it would be nice as we already have a girl but I am expecting another girl, everyone we know lately who has had/is having a baby are all girls 🀣

Lh4503 · 08/01/2026 14:53

@EllieWalesdid you have your scan on the 5th after? Sorry I've not messaged before I just realised the date!! Hope all went well πŸ₯° and your feeling okay!

EllieWales · 09/01/2026 11:00

Hi @Lh4503 yes we did thank and all good thank you, baby was nice and chilled and I’m hoping it stays that way πŸ˜‚ only a week until you find out what you’re having so exciting!!

Lh4503 · 09/01/2026 12:03

@EllieWalesaww glad it all went well ❀️ I know I can't wait now just want to find out the gender and see him/her again especially since I've had some spotting

EllieWales · 10/01/2026 11:55

Aww sorry you’ve had spotting @Lh4503 I’ve had it for the last 4/5 weeks now and it’s really unsettling but midwife isn’t worried. It’s only a tiny bit and stops almost immediately. Let us know how you get on 🫢

Lh4503 · 11/01/2026 09:20

@EllieWalesseems to be quite common by the seems but yeah very unsettling you cant relax. Mines stopped for a week now 🀞 but i had it for around a month too on and off pretty much every day. Thank you will let you know and updates 😊

Lh4503 · 17/01/2026 18:07

Hi all, had my private gender scan today, all was fine with baby (thank god I've been so stressed with the spotting) and we found out we are having another little girl πŸ’• I've definitely started feeling movement this week too.

How are you all doing? 😊

EllieWales · 17/01/2026 21:14

Aww how lovely @Lh4503 congratulations πŸ’•does your daughter know yet? She will be over the moon I bet! I’ve started to feel movement over the last week too such an odd sensation a bit like baby’s rolling around πŸ˜‚ I don’t remember having this feeling with my son he would just kick like mad but I did have an anterior placenta with him and didn’t feel anything until around 24 weeks! Such a relief to start feeling them feels more real now πŸ₯°
