Hello! Thanks for sorting the new thread! Hopefully I'll have an official due date tomorrow, assuming all goes well. Working a nightshift tonight so glad I won't be up all night worrying 
I learnt a while ago that bizarrely you get Braxton Hicks the entire way through your pregnancy- they can see them on scans as early as 8/40, they just don't tend to mention them because it can freak mums out. They normally only get strong enough to feel later on, but every body is different, so it might be that that's what you're feeling @professorastrocat?
Thanks for the jeans link! What are people doing about maternity bras? I'm starting to overflow my normal ones, but obviously getting measured anywhere or trying things on isn't going to work so well at the moment, due to the obvious...!
