July - we’re half way (thread 3)

[PeanutButterFalcon]

Spotted the last thread was almost full so started this one.

17th July for me. It still feels like a long way away, but I bet it come around quickly.

18+5 and still not felt any traces of movement yet 😔 not sure where my placenta is so that could be a factor, will find out at my scan on 23rd I guess. The anxiety is starting to build up again!

@TiredAlreadyOhDear Mines nearly 3 and unfortunately has become quite clingy since covid and spending nearly 24/7 together 😬 Sounds like yours will be the perfect protective older brother 😊

@Ginevere so exciting! No I'm not going to find out are you? How are you feeling?

I’m due 31st July, 1st baby

@Luckyelephant1 I’m the exact same no movement at all yet - I think from our dates were pretty close! Hopefully we will both feel something soon!

@LouLikesLollies have you been working at home during lockdown? Yeah my boy has gotten a bit more clingy too with being together all the time, but it’s unavoidable I suppose! I’m sure they’ll both be great :)

Hello! Would it be OK for me to join too? I am 19+2, due 8th July. It's my first pregnancy, thankfully all straightforward so far.

Can I jump in? Our first baby is due 23rd July ☺️ Seems like so long away but I'm sure it'll come round quickly

Welcome new people!

Will add those missing to the list shortly

Just a heads up that items in Aldi baby event can now be preordered online

Thank you for the heads up @THATbasicSNOWFLAKE.

Is anyone else started having really lucid, mad dreams?

@THATbasicSNOWFLAKE have you decided if you are going to buy things?

Hey I'm 19 weeks tomorrow don't think I've posted since the first thread as I went jvee to the fb page more so. Due July 12th with 3rd baby. Still feeling no movement at all. Have anterior placenta so hoping to feel something soon

@Mummy2O yes my dreams are mental atm, they don't even make an ounce of sense but are very vivid indeed!

@Luckyelephant1 It is really odd. Must be something hormonal. Mine have been really strange, but feel so real at the time.

Posting to join 😊

Hi! I'm due on 15th July with baby #1

@Sweetpea12

17 + 5 with baby boy due 19th July. Couldn’t resist finding out

Same due date, boy as well - baby number 4. Being induced on the 5th July or thereabouts

@feistymumma @Sweetpea12 Snap same due date! I'm expecting baby number 2. Been a long rocky journey but trying to relax into it and just be really excited. DS 5 is already claiming big brother title

Does anyone not really have a bump yet? And still not feeling anything?

I’m 19 weeks on weds - and had zero movement and also don’t have a bump at all really - I’ve got my scan next weds so looking forward to that but would have expected I’d have a bit of a bump by now at least...but honestly I don’t really at all. Xx

I feel massive already @tiredalreadyohdear but I don't think my bump is actually that big really. I'm approaching 20 weeks and if you know me it's obvious I'm pregnant. But if you walked past me in the street I don't think you'd notice!! Most people I know seem to get a visible bump around 22 weeks, especially if its their first baby so try not to worry.

With movements, I think I've started to feel a few things in the last few days. Nothing as obvious as a kick but feeling something definitely!

@TiredAlreadyOhDear I'm 19+4 and have a mini bump. It's only the last few days it's started to be noticeable when I'm dressed, and even then it looks more like I've eaten lots of cake. I don't think people would guess I'm pregnant, especially if I am wearing my coat or a hoodie.

From what I've seen with friends, people tend to 'pop', the bump happens really quickly when it comes? Maybe we haven't reached our popping point yet!

I can feel the baby moving though... Maybe you have an anterior placenta?

I have a scan next Tues, really looking forward to it. Hopefully will find out if we're having a boy or girl. Had a dream last night it's a boy! So now I think it's a boy even though I was guessing girl before.

Yeah it’s my first - so maybe in the next few weeks I’ll feel something and start to get a bit of a bump. I weigh myself as well once a week and I’ve only put on 3lb since I got pregnant too - which I’d have expected more although I did loose about 4lb at the start due to feeling so sick every time I smelled food - glad that parts over touchwood

Here’s me stressing I don’t have a bump - talk to me at 36 weeks I bet I’ll be fed up of having to carry one around by then 😂🙈

@BananaCustard85 yeah I did think maybe it was the placenta however from the notes from the 12 week scan the midwife said it didn’t say that I did and they usually put it in the notes if you do. I’ll ask next weds at my next one - just to confirm!

Yeah I look like I’ve just literally put on a few lbs

I guess we just have to wait to pop then! One of my friends said that she was like I didn’t have a bump and then at 22 weeks out of nowhere I had this bump!

The midwife said it was normal not to feel the baby up until like 24 weeks so said not to worry - and I’m not worried as such I think I’m just impatient 🙈😂🙈
