Happy 20 weeks 🙌💞 @Whiffle77

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 13:07

Anyone else keen on being added yet? 😊

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 13:10

@Mammacooks have you had your twelve week scan yet? Hope all ok with you as we haven't heard anything for a while, I think of you every time I update the list, do hope your alright

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 13:13

@Ejb86 how is everything your end? Fancy being included in the list action 😏

Whiffle77 · 14/07/2020 13:21

Thank you @ChampooPapi it feels like a major milestone! Next one is scan, then 22 weeks (halfway if you don't count the first four weeks) and then viability at 24 weeks! Lots to try and be positive about in the next few weeks I hope Smile

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 13:37

@Whiffle77 so much to be positive about! You are well and truly pregnant now and that baby is coming home. From twenty weeks everyone's chances are the same 'statistically' even compared to someone at 39 weeks/full term.

So we absolutely have to embrace our babies now fully because they are going to arrive and be in our arms before the year is out. You have got through the absolute hardest trimester, the hardest wait between scans as well. So happy to write that twenty weeks in for you, it means a lot to be able to do it even, we have been so lucky this time, I know we have been through a lot but we are the lucky ones now. What day and time is your scan again? Next week? 🥰👣

Whiffle77 · 14/07/2020 15:04

Thats what I an trying to think, and I do feel a lot more positive than I did! It helps now that I can feel them kicking me about in there too which is just such a lovely feeling, its made me really emotional the past few days. I was surprised how quickly the movements escalated in a couple of days too.
The weeks are going by faster now too and my anxiety is a lot better than it was! Next Tuesday, just after lunch! I'm sure the day will totally drag but I hope it will be worth it!!! When is your next scan?

TerribleImagination · 14/07/2020 15:37

I’m sure I’ve said before that my best mate is a midwife? I saw her this morning and she had a feel of my stomach and it turns out some of the bloat is baby, woohoo! So I officially have a bump! She also listened in to see if we could hear the heartbeat yet and she found it! Everything sounded perfect and I’m now sat here hugging my stomach 🥰❤️ MASSIVE perks of having a midwife for a Bessie! ❤️

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 16:04

@Whiffle77 next scan is the 4th of August, that's going to fly so I'm feeling very relaxed about it all now. The few days before will always bring the FEAR. But that is sooo much better then feeling the fear ALL the bloody time!. Your over 14 weeks now so she should be able to check the heartbeat for you as and when you feel, excellent to have her around, she is a good friend to you from the sounds of it, she will guide you through those final weeks as well towards the end, that is golden 😊

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 16:09

@TerribleImagination that last part was supposed to be for you but it didn't tag 🤦

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 16:10

From Your over 14 weeks.... @TerribleImagination

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 16:15

@Whiffle77 this week will just eat itself, but I did find the weekend before mine which was a Tuesday dragged. But I was definitely half excited as well as anxious rather then before the twelve week one where it was 99 percent anxiety and fear and 1 percent nervous excitement. You get to see the baby a lot at the anomonly scan too and if they can't get their measurements you will get to return the following few days or the following week. Is your partner attending? They are allowing partners here in Devon but only to the 20 week scan. They haven't called or advertised it so worth him taking a mask and asking when you guys get there. That's what we did and they said yes 🙌

Ejb86 · 14/07/2020 16:22

Ah, go on then @ChampooPapi count me in. I'm 6+3 EDD 6th March.

Got my dates for my early scan a week on Friday when I'll be 7+6 and 12 week scan mid August (I'll be 11+2).

Whiffle77 · 14/07/2020 16:31

Still not allowing partners here unfortunately! He is coming to sit outside and work from the car anyway just in case of any bad news, so you never know! I'm definitely far less anxious than I was about my 12 week scan (thank god, that was awful!)...got a busy week at work so that will help the time pass hopefully! 4th August will be here very quickly I'm sure!

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 16:38

@Ejb86 good for you! Nothing you do is going to jinx this pregnancy, I know how difficult these first weeks are but I also know that your on a mental list anyway each day that passes, so why not be a part of an actual one. Your pregnant after all!

How is the neseua? Is it creeping in yet or are you feeling ok ish? Gtreta your going for an early scan, I do think that helps a lot between now and the 12 week one

TerribleImagination · 14/07/2020 17:35

@ChampooPapi Yeah she’s such a close friend, we’re like sisters ❤️ We’ve helped each other through both of our losses (she had a molar pregnancy before having her little boy) and she’s just been so ace in this pregnancy, really putting my mind at ease when I’ve been anxious. It’s amazing to have her midwifery skills too, especially when appointments etc are still a bit restricted!

TerribleImagination · 14/07/2020 17:38

Ooh I hope it flies for you @Ejb86! A week on Friday will be here before you know it! I’ll be keeping absolutely everything crossed for you ❤️❤️ I hope you’re feeling ok and not too sicky already!

Ejb86 · 14/07/2020 18:49

@TerribleImagination @ChampooPapi yes, I have nausea. Have struggled with the smell of my clean clothes today!

I'm counting down to a week on Friday, it feels like the time will drag. 3 more days of working from home then 7 weeks at home with my little boy to get through! Hard to take him out anywhere when I feel so tired and weak.

TerribleImagination · 14/07/2020 19:47

@Ejb86 Eurgh you poor thing, the nausea is the PITS! Hats off to you for coping when you’ve already got a little one to look after!

Those early days feel so long don’t they?! I hope they go a bit faster for you!

Ljm0101 · 14/07/2020 20:14

Hey @Ejb86 we have the same due date 🥰 I have my early scan booked in for 25th July time still feels like it's standing still at the moment. My body is waking me at 4:30am every morning so by lunch time I'm ready for bed!!
I've been a bit quite on this thread but I am reading all of your news. 😊😊
I haven't had my 12 week scan through yet. Just a phone call with the midwife on 27th.

Xx

Leok83 · 14/07/2020 21:57

Hi ladies,

Can I tentatively join in? Was on TTC after MC thread from Jan and finally got my BFP last Friday. Had CP in April so I’ve been testing a lot, after 7 tests I think it’s definitely sticking around for the moment as the test lines better than the control (14DPO) and got 2-3 weeks on CB today!
So lovely to see all of you doing so well along this journey and loving the gorgeous scans!!

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 22:21

Waves at @Ljm0101, it's a great due date that's for certain! My last was due on the 7th of March, absolutely brilliant time to have a baby, spring has sprung, not many colds going round, it's great

Yay @Leok83 🙌 fantastic news! Remember you, oh my goodness, so wad this your 6th month of trying? So pleased for you!

ChampooPapi · 14/07/2020 22:22

@Ljm0101 let me know when your ready for the list 😏

Leok83 · 14/07/2020 22:33

Thanks @ChampooPapi, yes 6th month I finally got there😊 !!
