@lilypad88 thanks Hun x
@Celibacydidntwork I'm so terribly sorry 💔

Hey guys well what's sleep 😂.. don't seem to ever get much. I'm showing so much and I'm only early must be because it's pregnancy number 3. Hope everyone else is ok xx

15+6

IshaPoet · 21/07/2020 11:11

@Bubbabee it's funny I'm starting to show as well 🤣 4th pregnancy so I'm not surprised. I've got my scam tomorrow so I'm a little nervous going on my own since the hospital confirmed no one can come with me

Bubbabee · 21/07/2020 11:53

@IshaPoet haha I've had to buy some maternity clothes already 🙈although it does look like I'm carrying a big baby on my scan haha..
ooh fingers crossed for you tomorrow hun. What times your scan? X

IshaPoet · 21/07/2020 11:56

@Bubbabee it's at 10am at King George Hospital for some reason all my scans and consultations are there but my labour and appointment with the anaesthesiologist is at Queen Mary🤷🏽‍♀️ I got a few ribbed dresses and T-shirt's from H&M but I've ordered some maternity clothes from Boohoo. I feel the same at my private scan Cocobean was measuring bigger and I'm guessing it's because DP is tall as shit lol

blueskiesandapples · 21/07/2020 13:36

I had my 12 week scan today and all looked ok! Phew. They dated me at 13+1 so now due on 25th jan. Now just anxiously waiting to hear if I'm high or low risk from the combined test and they said if it's bad news then I'd hear in 5-7 days and 2 weeks if it's good news!

Is anyone else here on Cyclizine? Has it stopped your sickness altogether or has it just reduced it? I was late for my scan as was being sick despite the meds! Is this mother nature's way of getting me used to the smell of sick?

blueskiesandapples · 21/07/2020 13:37

@Celibacydidntwork I'm so sorry for your loss. I didn't read far down the thread before I posted so I'm sorry if that came across as insensitive! 😘

Maxdoggy · 21/07/2020 13:53

Hi everyone, hope it’s ok to join! I’m 16 + 4 now. Due date is 1st jan- I think someone else had the same date?
All was ok at the 12 week scan but I’m now terrified about the 20 week scan!

How is everyone feeling? Apart from the slight belly and inability to eat a big meal (sadly) I am feeling totally normal- I’m a bit worried this is not a good sign?!?!

Carabu1 · 21/07/2020 17:36

@Celibacydidntwork I'm so sorry for you loss. Thinking of you.

@MayBug2020 - 100%! I'm 17 weeks today and I really thought there might be a shadow of a bump by now as I'm so short and petite, but I just look like a slightly fatter version of my usual self. I have another cervix length scan next week though, so another peek at what's going on. Fingers crossed its still growing even if I'm not?!

MayBug2020 · 21/07/2020 17:40

@Carabu1 yeah I know what you mean. I feel like I need reassurance that everything is going ok. I am taking the sign that tiredness and sickness is still there that all is ok but I can’t wait to see my little bean again. I have a midwife call on Thursday where I will mention about my cervix scan and see if I can bring it forward x

Boof87 · 21/07/2020 19:54

Hi all,

So I had my 12 week scan yesterday at King's hosp. I had to have a CVS as the baby had a little more neck fluid than normal and the hormone levels in my blood were high. Just waiting on the results as to whether my baby has down syndrome or not. Feel utterly sick. I've run out of tears and just now feel so anxious. Should hopefully get (a positive!) Result by the end of the week.

I would recommend people educating yourself on things like this before hand if you don't already as you just never know what situation you will be in. I had a little knowledge and it helped me to understand and make my decision on the day to have a CVS. Hope everyone is doing well. Sending good wishes all round xx

devilliams · 21/07/2020 20:42

@Celibacydidntwork I’m so sorry for your loss. It must be a very sad and emotional time for you 😔

devilliams · 21/07/2020 20:44

Those feeling/being sick. I have been the exact same, it is like a hangover right enough, however, I’m now 15.4 and today is the first day where I have actually felt ‘normal’ and have been able to eat. I’m hoping this is me now turning a corner as it’s been hellish! Hope those still suffering have some respite soon too!! 🤞

Bubbabee · 21/07/2020 21:05

@IshaPoet my baby seems big but they say all is ok. Are you excited for tomorrow? Xx

IshaPoet · 21/07/2020 21:07

@Bubbabee excited and nervous honestly. Just bcos I haven't really been feeling overly pregnant like most of symptoms are minimal just sore boobs and the waking up too pee. So I'm praying all is well when I go. How have you been keeping babe 💜❤️💙💜❤️💙

lilypad88 · 21/07/2020 21:19

Good luck girls for the scan tomoz! 🤞🏻 mine is at 2pm... I don't know how well I'm gonna sleep tonight, so nervous 😰

12+1

Von0684 · 21/07/2020 21:47

Good luck tomorrow everyone I’ve been having tension headaches for 2 nights be glad to get it over with now and just check everything is ok! Xx

Maxdoggy · 21/07/2020 22:23

@Boof87 I really hope all works out ok. I’m at Kings too- they seem pretty wonderful so hopefully their care and advice will be some help. Good luck xxx

Boof87 · 21/07/2020 22:26

@maxdoggy thanks. Me too. The centre was really good. They fitted me in the same day to have the CVS and allowed my husband in to support me through. They were all very helpful and very understanding. Guess I'm in the best place really as it seems so advance there. Hope all is well with you x

IshaPoet · 21/07/2020 23:38

@lilypad88 mines at 10am. Have no idea how I'm going to sleep without tossing and turning 🥺 night night Mama's I'll let you all know how it goes ❤️💜💙

T2020 · 22/07/2020 03:46

I'm wide awake with nerves for today 🥴 should be 13+1 based on dates of two pevious scans, my last one was at 9+4. Good luck to everyone who also has their scans today 🤞 xxx

CoalCraft · 22/07/2020 06:41

Morning all, 15+6 today and I'm definitely starting to show. Seems early as I'm ftm but in a mirror I can definitely tell and even DH agrees now XD I tend to wear mostly looser clothes though so I don't think I look pregnant really.

Feeling generally okay, just some aches and pain here and there both in joints/tendons and belly - lots of stretching going on! Off for my whooping cough vaccine today.

Good luck to everyone for their scans!

Sikantiskatinas · 22/07/2020 08:10

@Sophiamel987

I’m also very bloated and have been for the last 2 weeks, it gets progressively bigger as the day goes on! Is anyone else like this?
Same here... feel like a balloon in the evening... my stomach does feel like it’s full of air... this pregnancy is much different than my previous one...
devilliams · 22/07/2020 08:48

@IshaPoet Good luck with your scan today.

IshaPoet · 22/07/2020 08:54

@devilliams thank ya babe 🥺 so excited and nervous and I have a runny nose from doing the gardening yesterday- bloody pollen 🤣🤦🏽‍♀️

devilliams · 22/07/2020 09:18

Just read all the way through now. Good luck to others with their scans too. 😁😁
