Shocking that hospitals charge for photos when most are making you go on your own!!

I'm no further forward with my chase. GP told me to call booking in number. Booking in number told me to call the hospital who were the ones who told me I need to get in touch with the midwife in the first place!!

babydust2412 · 07/08/2020 16:05

@Stef92 oh gosh sounds like a bit of a nightmare, very confusing, why are they making things so hard for you it's silly xx

Hi All hope your all doing well. I'm not coping well in these heatwaves 😩
I was just going thru my letter for the scan, so I can't take anyone with me, on top of that they started charging £10 for a scan picture 🙄 they also say no pics or video recording allowed during scan.
Although my midwife said I could.
Anyone else got itchy skin?
Not sure if it's due to growing body or the humid weather, but get ever so itchy.
I been feeling more and more tired these days, just don't have the energy, and feeling more irritable.... sorry for going on a bit lol
Xxx

@Safxxx £10?!? That’s awful! That’s so much money... how do they justify that?!

The heat is tough. I’ve got a big exam coming up and I’m struggling to stay awake to study.

Also to make matters worse after weeks of constipation I’m now having the opposite problem every few days! Last weekend was awful, definitely contributed to how drained I felt. And now it’s started up again this weekend. I really don’t understand as I’ve been at home all weekend eating normalish things. I haven’t managed a meal for days, just been trying to graze on things. 😖 so gross.

It’s good to have a little moan! I feel like I brought this upon myself like a hangover so I’ve only myself to blame! X x x

Safxxx · 09/08/2020 17:05

@Muriel84 I know £10 Is out of question I'm not paying that much to see my own baby lol. Hopefully on the day I can persuade them to let me take a pic on my phone.
Oh poor you hope you feel better soon.
I've been constipated for so long, feel like maybe I could do with the opposite lol.
I'm trying to get in more fruit & veg in my diet, but all that does it makes me more gassy lol.
Oh my days 🤣 the joys of pregnancy huh.
Good luck with your Exams hope all goes well Xxx

Safxxx · 09/08/2020 17:08

@Muriel84 ps if you want to blame anyone then only blame your hormones lol

Muriel84 · 09/08/2020 19:45

@Safxxx thanks! Me too coz the resit is a couple of weeks before my due date! 🙈

I think the constipation is worse than the opposite tbh! It’s so painful. I’m still having all bran every morning otherwise I don’t go. I can’t win!

How are people getting along bump wise? I swear mine’s not all just bloat... god knows what’s going on in there. If I sneeze or get up to quickly I get a shooting pain in the right side of my groin! I keep yelping! I don’t have good stomach muscles... I guess they’re not going to get any better now!

Hi ladies ❤️
£10 for a scan picture is crazy!! I got to record even though it said you couldn't on a sign the Sonographer was lovely and very understanding about everything ❤️ hopefully it'll be the same tor you xx
I get you both on the constipation side of things it's so strange
Also my bump has popped slightly, I'm very small so I have now started to get a small bump that's there all the time and isn't bloat 😂😂 xx

And the heat is unbearable, I haven't slept properly all week it's getting exhausting being so hot all the time 😩

Hi Ladies! Trying to catch up on the thread.
The heat is just too much. I love summer but now I'm really looking forward the rainy autumn days :)
Charging for the scan pic is outrageus imho. Fingers crossed they will be nice and allow you to take photos.

SunshineMum18 · 09/08/2020 20:50

Hello ladies,
I can't believe I have only just found this group! I am due on 5th February with my second bubs. I have a very cheeky three year old going on thirty! I am feeling extremely tired with the heat and working everyday it's a killer! Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend. Daffodilx

Safxxx · 09/08/2020 22:12

Well I look like I'm 4-5 maths preg lol don't understand why it's gone so big so soon. It can be quite uncomfortable, specialy after I've eaten, feel all stretched and tight inside but outside it's all firm 🙄
Obvs the constipation and bloat don't help.
Looks like were all struggling with the heat 😩 not easy!! But this too shall pass until then keep those fans on full blast, Xxx

howlathebees · 09/08/2020 22:16

Hi can I join? I’m due on the 5th with my 4th baby! I found out that we’re having a little boy! So this will be our 4th boy :)

Safxxx · 09/08/2020 22:17

@SunshineMum18 hi congrats 😍
Awe 3yr olds can be right little cheeky monkey's lol hopefully by the time your baby is born he will be in nursery!!

Safxxx · 09/08/2020 22:21

@howlathebees Hi congrats 😍
Wow all boys bless. Xxx

Muriel84 · 09/08/2020 22:38

Wow 4 boys! Hi new joiners 👋

Glad it’s not just me who feels big! This is my first pregnancy. I’m quite slim and I feel like I’m waddling already! Hard to know what to wear in this heat! X

howlathebees · 09/08/2020 22:55

Thank you for my welcomes! Yep 4 boys! I’m absolutely chuffed, it’s just names that are the issue!

Snorlax86 · 10/08/2020 08:27

Hi ladies

Sorry I’m so slow with this thread, thank you to everyone that replied.
£10 is ridiculous for scan photos, apparently it’s £2 per pic here, when I had my private scan they printed about 7 different ones for me. It is crazy we have to pay for a photo of our own baby, and honestly, who wouldn’t want it!

Welcome to everyone that has joined.

The heat has been ridiculous, it’s still set to be hot for most of the week too. Personally I can’t tell if I’m bloated or it’s bump showing, I’ve always had a bit of belly and now can’t remember what it looked like before I got pregnant Grin

Muriel84 · 10/08/2020 09:05

@howlathebees I can imagine! We’re struggling with one boy’s name! Xx

babydust2412 · 10/08/2020 09:47

@SunshineMum18 @howlathebees
Welcome ladies ❤️❤️

@howlathebees I was just thinking the gender is picked up around 20wks?
How did you find out sooner? Xxx

babydust2412 · 10/08/2020 10:34

@Safxxx I'm finding out at a private gender scan at 16 weeks 5 days xx
Some people find out through blood tests really early on, I think blood tests are accurate for gender from 8 weeks onwards ❤️

OP posts:
howlathebees · 10/08/2020 10:58

@Snorlax86 the heat is awful isn’t it!!

@Muriel84 it doesn’t help that we’ve unintentionally made a theme with our first three names so now I feel obliged to fit into that so he doesn’t feel left out😂

@Safxxx you can get early private sex scans, mine was just for another look at 14 weeks as we’d had some problems in early pregnancy so I wanted to make sure everything was okay. They can’t be 100% sure but it looked very obvious to everyone we were having a boyGrin

babydust2412 · 10/08/2020 11:04

@howlathebees that's amazing you found out so early! ❤️
