Just looking for a board to join, have just started weaning myself off conception. I’m due 26th December. Feeling like it would be nice to join a group with people due similar time :)
Feeling a little anxious about things going wrong and dp doesn’t really understand x

How did it go, @emmalou9?
Mine is tomorrow... It feels like I've been waiting forever but now I'm scared that it's so soon. Trying not to worry but...

Ladies meet Baby Wild. 😊

It was so lovely being able to see them, it was over very very quickly. Had to have another blood test too, is this normal? I wasn't told about it.

It's irritated me that it still has my maiden name on but I suppose that's not the point at this moment in time.

Have put my due date forward by 2 days so now I'm due 27th December.

Whose scan is next?

@emmalou9 nice long legs!

emmalou9 · 19/06/2018 20:05

@Pob13 definitely doesn't take after me and the OH then haha

mamfypuss · 19/06/2018 20:22

@emmalou9 beautiful :)

I had to have a blood test too. So I wouldn't panic about that x

Pob13 · 20/06/2018 06:39

@N8Emma good luck today.

N8Emma · 20/06/2018 08:19

@emmalou9 Awwww, so lovely!
@Pob13 thanks so much for thinking of me. I'm so anxious as well as excited. It's just so unlike anything else isn't it- to care so so much about something but have absolutely no control over it! Luckily I don't have long to wait- my appointments at 10:30 this morning.

N8Emma · 20/06/2018 08:21

@Rose2887. Think it's yours today too. Good luck! X

emmalou9 · 20/06/2018 08:22

@N8Emma Good Luck today. Enjoy it. You'll be absolutely fine. I was on pins all day so at least you only have a few hours to wait.

Cant wait to see the scan picture 😊😊

FireAndRain45 · 20/06/2018 10:09

Ahhh congrats on the scans everyone and good luck to everyone due to have them this week! Mine is on Monday when I'll be 12+4, weird mixture of excited and nervous.

How's everyone's symptoms? I'm definitely feeling way better in general, although the sickness is decreasing I do keep getting killed into a false sense of security and then having an awful day where I just want to cry and eat crisps.

FireAndRain45 · 20/06/2018 10:10

Lulled, not killed!

emmalou9 · 20/06/2018 17:42

@Fireandrain45 i was like that, at the weekend i felt absolutely fine but then yesterday and today the sickness has been back with avengance.
Have you had any other symptoms?
Ive got terrible headaches and starting to become very breathless - not helped by my asthma.

N8Emma · 20/06/2018 22:24

Hey everyone. Scan went well- all good so far! Feeling so relieved!
Meet baby Healy...

N8Emma i have been waiting all day for this! So glad it went well. Lovely pic.

Hi, just popping in from the December babies thread on the antenatal groups section to say hello and let you know we’ve got a Facebook group set up for December due dates if anyone would like to join. There’s about 40 of us on there at the moment and it’s a nice group. If anyone wants to join just drop me pm and I can add you.

emmalou9 · 21/06/2018 17:14

@N8Emma what a lovely scan!!! Its such a wonderful feeling.

Who's next??

mamfypuss · 21/06/2018 17:34

Had a massive scare today. Started to bleed last night. Then again this morning, went to the Gp and they couldn't find a heart beat.
I was sent to the hospital where they gave me a scan and all was fine! On a bonus we got to see our little bundle again today :)

N8Emma · 21/06/2018 17:50

Thanks for your lovely messages.
@mamfypuss, how scary for you. So glad everything is ok.

Pob13 · 21/06/2018 21:10

@mamfypuss scary stuff. Did they have any explanation for the bleed?

mamfypuss · 22/06/2018 17:47

Thank you. Yes it was scary but at least we got to see bubba again. Always look at the positives.

@Pob13 no they had no idea. She checked me all over. Couldn't see why I was bleeding. Hopefully it's just my body changing x

Pob13 · 22/06/2018 19:28

Anyone started their pelvic floor exercises yet?

Pob13 · 24/06/2018 20:08

@FireAndRain45 good luck tomorrow. What time are you being scanned? Im being done at 9.30. Really anxious at the mo.

MrsCrumbtious · 24/06/2018 20:27

@Pob13 I’ve started doing the thing where you stop weeing midflow then start again. I’ve been sneezing so much lately I’m scared of snissing (sneezing and pissing) myself 🙈

Pob13 · 24/06/2018 20:47

@MrsCrumtious snissing - an excellant term! I too have that fear.

FireAndRain45 · 24/06/2018 20:48

Thank you @Pob13 good luck to you too! Really hope yours goes well. I'm feeling the same, very anxious, mines at 9.05. Much better that they're both first thing I think, less time to get worked up in the morning. I'm trying to do deep breaths and distract myself at the mo 😕 I have an anxiety disorder anyway so I have a tendency to get pretty worked up about stuff! But trying to reroute the anxiety into excitement
