Bus Graduates: Tickets for Oct/Nov/Dec

Here we go!

I'm not sure sickness is anything to go by - I've been pregnant with 2 girls snd 2 boys, 2 are healthy, 2 weren't and my sickness has ranged from none at all to being sick almost everyday with nausea all day and different variations in between! Let us know what h the scan says tho are you hoping for twins? Xx

So, I’ve got myself into the ‘my next scan is so far away (June 3rd) and I can’t possibly wait any longer to find out if there’s anything wrong with the baby’ place. Convinced there is something wrong (I know I’m ridiculous). I’ve just almost booked a private scan for tomorrow. It’s an insane waste of money isn’t it? £180. Ahhh. Tell me if you think I’m being crazy?!

Or just convince me it’s totally fine to spend that money, because I’m saving such a lot on commuting costs?!

@needallthesleep I am so with you on this! My scan isn’t until the 12th and I am constantly worrying something will be wrong with at least one of the babies, it’s all just sillyness/overthinking. Unluckily for me but luckily for my bank balance there are no private scan facilities where I live. I guess you just have to weigh it up. Like you could put your mind at ease or you could buy a nice cot lol. A week and a half will soon come around x

In all likelihood your scans will be fine kafirs! I know stat you're feeling though the nerves kept me awake for nights! Thing is there's nothing you can do anyway!

I'm 20 weeks today - halfway I can't believe how much the days are dragging so it feels so much longer!! 20 weeks still to go and I already feel tricking huge!!

Meant scans will be fine ladies!

Thanks both, yes think it is ridiculous for the equivalent of waiting 1.5 weeks. I’ve felt the baby move this morning as well which made me relax a bit. I can’t believe how much I breezed through my first pregnancy thinking everything was fine, and now I’m convinced that everything is wrong!

@Needallthesleep - I know exactly what you mean I was excited for my 20w scan so I could see baby first time and I didn't even know it was an anomaly scan til the consultant was telling my that everything was fine -this time everytime my doctor was telling me what she was checking I was like it it ok she kept saying it's all ok but I still kept asking as I was so worried something was up even though they'd checked for chromosomal abnormalities at 11 weeks and baby was moving I was still stressing! Xx

I get it @Needallthesleep it's weird how it ramps up aswell the closer a scan is. Mines the same week as yours and I've started worrying about the fact I hardly feel baby, especially after a couple of days of movements that seems like ages ago.

I suppose once they are moving all the time we'll feel more reassured!?

@whatsthecraic91 hope you have a good scan today.

@needallthesleep @Piglet11 mine isn’t until July 6th! What I think I’m going to do is wait til after 16wks and book one that DH can come along to as I assume he’s not coming into the hospital any time soon!

@BooMamaBear great bump pic 🙂

Thanks @Wise0wl have a 26 weeks scan on 7th Jul I know what you mean it seems ages away as it's not even June yet! Xx

@BooMamaBear id be happier with one 😅 look at your lovely bump ❤️

@professorastrocat thank you it's at 2pm I'm so nervous!

Thanks @whatsthecraic91 xx

Lovely bump @BooMamaBear have you found yourself pop in recent weeks. I hear you normally do between 17-20 weeks?

Good luck at scan today @whatsthecraic91.

Me and my husband felt the babies move yesterday 🥰

Thanks @Piglet11 what do you mean by pop? Xx

@BooMamaBear as in did your stomach just pop out, like became bigger.

Kind of but i looked fatter quite early coz I always get really bad water retention but it was squishy - it got firm at about 15 weeks then just carried on getting bigger but yes it got quite a lot bigger by week 18 and seems to get bigger every night! Xx

Lovely that you and your DH got to feel babies move!
I love it when she kicks and when she kicks for Daddy -though she kicks anyway when I go to bed at night and when I wake up -though sometime she decides to have a rave too at 2am and all the moving and hard kicks wake me up!! Xx

Scan today went great! Measuring 1 day behind at 8 weeks so EDD now 3rd Jan. Hope it's okay for me to still tag along with you ladies x

Course it's ok! We just wanted a thread so we didn't lose touch after the buses regardless of when you're due -You're one of the OGs!
Lovely picture and glad it all went well! Xx

@BooMamaBear aww thank you! It's nice all you ladies are ahead of me too so i can ask you all for advice as you will have probably already experienced it 😌 x

Great news @whatsthecraic91 I'm
Glad all was well and hope you enjoyed seeing bubs. Like @BooMamaBear says of course you're staying here 😁

Enjoying a nice non alcoholic cider today! 🤗☀️

Been sunbathing with my Pear cider not a cloud in the sky! DH sorting the garden and DD in her little tikes car!! Xx

@BooMamaBear lucky you!! Last day I had off besides the weekends was Easter 🐣 I would love to book a couple of weeks off in the summer but I'm now tempted to keep my leave for all of December so I can finish up for maternity leave earlier!
