First Time Pregnancy (3)

[QuestionARhino]

Oops time for a new thread. Hope you all find it okay

@lydiangel83 I'm nearly 26 weeks, it was probably 20ish weeks when it improved because I remember I first felt baby move at 18 weeks and I was sleeping in the spare room because I was so fidgety and frustrated that night so it was after 18 weeks!

@Bubbasmama2017 ^^

Yeah I've just spoke to my mother in law and she said I shouldn't worry my bumps nice and she thinks it's big, thanks girls for all your reassurance, xx

It's really varied! At school today a teacher told me I don't look pregnant, and it's just a little bump. The other teacher said "hey fattie" and my MIL just now said the "lump" "is really showing"

I'm loving my bump too. The rest of me not so much though

I like rubbing my bump during the day at work, find it relaxing whilst at my desk

Fat arms, face and legs less so :-/

My bump is massive! Had two people ask if I'm pregnant this week, I also had a belly toucher.
TMI question but is anyone else extra sweaty?? I know it's hot but I'm struggling more than ever 😭 I'm not normally a sweaty person lol

I'm sweating out of pores I didn't even know I had!

I love my bump don't get me wrong just worry when people say it's small for 19 weeks.

I can start to feel kicks on the outside now too if I'm lucky and baby kicks more than a couple of times In a row xx

Me too Ew, who knew you could sweat from some of these places 😂

I'm 24 weeks and I'm bloody huge! I'm regularly asked when it's due now and it's almost a bit embarrassing to say not until beginning of October 😂

My 20 week scan was fab, the sonographer spent almost 40 mins with us and talked through everything, that was NHS!

My husband is currently sat playing music to bump and seeing which he kicks too to see what he likes!!

@ew1990 that's fab you're feeling strong kicks. My friend is 4 weeks already of me (approx) and her bump is tiny. All is perfectly fine though xx
@TheLionQueen1 aww glad you had a lovely scan.
Honestly, this sweating is awful! Had to buy a hand held fan tonight for when I'm out, it's unbearable.

*ahead, not already (stupid phone)

@Squigglefish I read it as ahead! Haha. Yeah it's just too hot I can't wait for it to cool down, my 20 weeks scan isn't until next Friday I'll be 20+6 xx

@TheLionQueen1 you sound like you had a good sonographer I think I'm going to complain about ours, so that other people don't feel as underwhelmed and confused as we did :-/

Lydia

I would definitely complain. I'm at a very over booked London hospital and despite this my scans have all been on time and thorough with all my questions answered.

My 20 week scan the sonographer struggled to get a certain view of the heart so three people tried and they got it in the end taking an extra 15 minutes and all through that time I was told not to worry.

They shouldn't make you feel like that. Glad the private one was much more reassuring it's just a shame it had to come to that!

Lydia I agree with 88claire, I would consider complaining, it's awful that you walked out of there with more questions than before. If you hadn't have been in a position to pay for the private scan that would have been awful

Hi ladies, 20 week scan this afternoon. Everything looking perfect. Not any ambiguity regarding gender - see photo!

@Teachervoice looks like i can see his little thing (i'm hoping i can anyway) so it's a boy?! I'm so sorry if it's a girl lol!!

already flashing his bits!

You're absolutely right! My husband made an unsavoury comment about the baby already posing for 'dick pics' which had the sonographer hyperventilating with laughter.

Definitely keeping this to embarrass him when he's older!

Haha teacher!! Congrats! Another boy, we should do a tally on what we've got so far

@Teachervoice I proper laughed at that!

How lovely, it's a lovely picture too. I'm so jealous can't wait to see bean again xxx

Lovely pic @Teachervoice, congrats on your little man!
Are you finding out what you're having @ew1990?

@Squigglefish yes, hopefully babies cooperating xx

Thanks all. @ew1990 we had a good sonographer but in my opinion, it did feel a lot more clinical than last time. I know that's because they need to do all the measurements etc but I think I enjoyed the 12 week scan more!

Very nervous for 20 weeks tomorrow!

@mrsjkerry i hear you, i was sick so badly the morning of mine. It was down to pure nerves. Hope you enjoy it though and all is well. Will you be finding out what yore having too?

You're 😑

I already paid for the private scan! I'm hoping they confirm that it's a girl tomorrow 😄😬
