@ThirdTimeLuckyIHope does it say on the leaflet? If not then it’s best to check with a pharmacist/your doctor.

I’ve been taking liquid Gaviscon for indigestion as it definitely states on the bottle that it’s safe.

Sucks though, feel your pain!

@HotDiggidy2017 I haven't got the leaflet and it doesn't say on the box might just give the chemist a call it's open until 6. Thank you

@ThirdTimeLuckyIHope how're you feeling better now?

I’m due on the 2nd of May with baby number 4Smile we have a girl and 2 boys already and hoping to find out what we’re having at 20week scan on the 11th.

ThirdTimeLuckyIHope · 06/12/2020 22:26

@asabee yes thank you

HotDiggidy2017 · 07/12/2020 15:31

@VHB88 ah that must be so exciting for their siblings!

@ThirdTimeLuckyIHope looks like it’s my turn now.... sucks 🙄

ThirdTimeLuckyIHope · 07/12/2020 17:33

@HotDiggidy2017 if it helps I found that a glass of milk really helped and I took 1 antacid to take the edge off. I hope you feel better 😊

I feel so in limbo right now 15 weeks today and as far I as can tell no bump yet and can't feel baby - I'm not even totally convinced I'm even pregnant at this point 😂😂 I'm sure I'm feeling too normal 1 week until my midwife appointment

2020newbie · 07/12/2020 21:11

I have 2 friends due in may not the 7th though

However my birthday is the 7th of May it’s a great day to be born 😂

Moandy · 08/12/2020 09:53

I'm due on the 12th of May! 17+6 today with an anterior placenta. No movement yet.

ThirdTimeLuckyIHope · 09/12/2020 12:47

Guys the wait until my next appointment is really stressing me out. I see the midwife next Tuesday but I'm feeling super paranoid somethings gone wrong need to switch my brain off or change my mindset but I don't know how

HotDiggidy2017 · 10/12/2020 21:00

@ThirdTimeLuckyIHope it’s so tough, it’s also super normal for the anxiety to notch up a level in the lead up to a scan. Have you got a support network around you? Does it help to talk about your worries?

What dates are people’s 20 weeks booked for?

Tigerlily08 · 10/12/2020 21:48

@HotDiggidy2017 mine is on Christmas Eve but my partner and I went for a private scan earlier this week to find out the gender together (he still can't come to any scans).

@ThirdTimeLuckyIHope - I felt exactly like you, full of anxiety as I barely feel pregnant. I get the occasional flutter but that's it. All was fine at the scan, baby happily wriggling away and measuring pretty much bang on where they should be at this stage.

We found out we are expecting a little girl 💖

PFin · 11/12/2020 00:02

@HotDiggidy2017 my 20 week is on 30th December, its not even at my normal maternity outpatients, its at a hospital ab extra hour away cause my maternity is so busy at the minute and have no appointments. Thats not helping my anxiety at all for the scan. Worries me too incase they have no room for me come delivery 😭

ThirdTimeLuckyIHope · 11/12/2020 08:19

@HotDiggidy2017 my partner is pretty good at listening to all my worries and keeping me remotely calm.

I have days when I think I'm being ridiculous and other days when I can't stop my brain working over time with all the worry

My 20 week scan isn't until the 11th of Jan but we have a private one booked on the 19th December

@Tigerlily08 congratulations 🥳 on your little pink princess 💗

asabee · 11/12/2020 14:32

@2020newbie haha that's nice to hear
@Moandy give it some time you'll start to feel it. The weeks fly by quickly so you'd be there soon!

asabee · 11/12/2020 14:33

@ThirdTimeLuckyIHope I can understand. Mine is on the 18th of December and I'm trying to take my mind off of it and I can say I'm doing pretty well
@Tigerlily08 congratulations! I want a girl so bad but after 5 chemicals I'll take what God gives me 😊

I've got my 20 week scan on Thurs and like you guys also anxious to ensure all is ok!! It's such a worry. How's everyone's bumps coming along? i'm looking more like i've overeaten at the min and the jeans are nearly not fastening! Making the switch to maternity jeans seems a big thing though!
Also think i've felt some movement, like bubbles popping, similar times in the eve when watching TV so fingers crossed all ok!!

Ijustlikefood · 11/12/2020 20:57

20 week scan on Tuesday, still don't really feel like I have a bump like what I thought I would by now
Think I've had flutters / bubbles for about a week now on and off but still not too sure I'm a bit anxious about the next scan

asabee · 12/12/2020 08:37

@Ijustlikefood lie flat on your back for a few seconds and tell us what you see on your lower abdomen. I'm sure should see a little bump peeping through. Let us know

asabee · 12/12/2020 08:39

@DiabeticFirstBaby I have mine on Friday! My bump is obvious only when I lie down lol and for now I feel the same too like I'm overly stuffed !
I prefer dresses to jeans though

Omg midwife appointment tomorrow so nervous 🤞🏼😊

SH2021 · 15/12/2020 10:26

I'm due on the 7th may!! I have my 20 week scan on Monday and so excited to find out what I'm having! Are you finding out? How are you feeling?

ThirdTimeLuckyIHope · 15/12/2020 19:19

@SH2021 congratulations 🥳 I can't wait to find out we've booked a private scan for Saturday when we'll be finding out hopefully

Is it your first? Are you bothered what you have?

asabee · 15/12/2020 20:14

@ThirdTimeLuckyIHope how did it go?!
