Still no movement here either 😒 xx

@lc86 I found Dorothy Perkins had some that fit quite well on me - I am very short though!!

lc86 · 08/07/2020 19:28

Thanks @Amyyy1 I'll take a look! x

My scan is next Friday(17th) I then have to dash home, get DS and then back to the same hospital to see the paediatric dermatologist with him. They should just let me move in!

I’m feeling movement but really only when I lie down at night. Maybe I’m just too busy with running around all day to pay attention.

@lc86 I have a nice pair of under bump jeans from Topshop that I got on ebay :-) I would never have even considered Topshop but might be worth a look? :-)

lc86 · 08/07/2020 20:01

@EithneBlue I didn't even know they had a maternity section! Thank you 😊

I second the DP ones. I've got the Ellis skinny jeans. I'm not short.

@excitednerves our scans are on the same day, we can panic together and then compare pics!

Really weird paranoid question, I keep reading that the top of my uterus should be nearly in line with my belly button by now, but the firm part, and where I feel the baby wriggling is still more in between my hips. Could it be because I've got a long body and my belly button is high up. I'm worried that it should be higher by now and isn't!

I'm 20+3 weeks. Had my scan last Friday and baby wasn't playing ball Sad they couldn't check heart properly. Been back today and the little monkey was just as awkward. They basically said what they have seen and could see looks normal but baby's position wasn't helping. So fingers crossed everything will be fine. Next scan not til 28 weeks now. Here's a pic of my scan from Friday almost looks as though it's waving Smile

@RestorationInsanity I think the baby is sitting in between my hips too, its very firm there anyway, had a bit of a panic this morning as it was suddenly soft but its now back to firm, so assume the baby moved for a little while?

excitednerves · 08/07/2020 20:24

Oh yay @RestorationInsanity not long to go for us! 9 more sleeps!

chubbyhotchoc · 08/07/2020 20:31

@RestorationInsanity I've ordered what I hope is a slightly less demanding one than the last one I had that was bloody arduous. I'm a total push over. I'll have to make up the last 20 weeks because it's been a blur!

Bobbieblu · 08/07/2020 20:45

Waves to all! Scan is next weds and so happy that they confirmed today that DP can come. Half way through pregnancy which feels like quite a milestone (not quite 19 weeks but they won’t let these twins go much over 37 weeks).

NaomiB79 · 08/07/2020 21:00

Just catching up from this afternoon on this thread and the old one. I'm not sure if she's following this thread but if you are following @RunnerGirl123 I'm so sorry you've had to make the heartbreaking decision to terminate your pregnancy. These last few weeks must have been so difficult for you and your partner, I can't begin to imagine what you've been through. Thinking of you and sending you lots of love x

kkr168 · 08/07/2020 21:42

Our friend has given us what they said was a next to me crib, just set it up & it's a different model, a chicco lullago. Now have to make excuses to give it back & get on the hunt for a good deal on the next to me dream crib. They seem to be around £100 2nd hand, I'd then have to buy a new mattress, so think I'll just buy new.

Missworry92 · 08/07/2020 21:48

Thank you for the new thread 😊
I have a random question but have any of you had shooting pain in your boobs?
My left boob is just hurting so much today 😭 it feels like the pain is coming at the bottom but the right one is completely fine and it's not just the soreness if you know what I mean, it actually feels like something heavy on my boob, has any of you had this?

Pinktruffle · 08/07/2020 21:56

I've had a very very sore left boob too since Monday, right boob is fine! @Missworry92
Mine is not quite shooting pains, feels almost like muscle pain, I can't sleep on my right hand side as my left boob hurts so much when its 'hanging' and gravity is against it.

Baby has been an active little bean this evening! Grin

phe694 · 08/07/2020 22:00

heyy ladies! i'm 20 weeks on friday, and have my scan on monday and i'm no nervous 😩 i haven't felt any movements yet, also don't feel like i'm actually pregnant, just have a bump starting to appear 🙈

Missworry92 · 08/07/2020 22:11

@Pinktruffle oh I just hope it stops hurting 😭😅 damn boobs and gravity dont mix well together 😂
@phe694 I wouldn't worry about it. You might just have anterior placenta so you dont feel it as much 😊 I'm 21+3 and only feeling odd little movements with anterior placenta

phe694 · 08/07/2020 22:13

@Missworry92 i'm actually looking forward to being kicked hard so i know shes in there 😂 how are you feeling? i feel like i could fall asleep anywhere atm 😳

Missworry92 · 08/07/2020 22:31

@phe694 I'm sure you will get some proper kicks soon 😊
I'm pretty good thank you apart from boob pain 😭 feeling pretty tired too but not sure if that's pregnancy of the fact that I came back to work after being on furlough for 3months 😁 hope your scan goes well on Monday 😊 I had mine last friday and I had a trainee girl doing the scan so it took her like an hour but I loved seeing my little squish every minute 😊

MummyShark97 · 08/07/2020 23:22

@lauralouise199721

If it was November when you saw someone else then there's no way the baby could be theirs x
