@Blossom428 yeah I will be glad for it in later pregnancy as my office is well over an hours drive! I finish may 20th for maternity, no idea what I will do in that month! But I have holiday I need to take before so that's when I finish!

So you all know we had the name we loved - Eleanor? Well husbands friend called his baby Eleanor two days ago 😂

@AnxiousAnnie86 lots of nesting haha
Ohhh no Asif they've callled their baby Eleanor 🙈 this is my worry, there's a few people in our wider friendship group that are going to be having a baby before me, so I just hope they don't pick a name that we have chosen haha.
Yes Sunday we find out 😆😆😆 no we don't have a preference at all. I've said girl and OH has said boy though for our guesses haha.
Legs nearly above its head haha.

@Blossom428 😍😍😍😍😍 look at that baby!!! I'd say girl! I'm sure of it! However I was sure mine was a boy! You still on the name nova?

He was the last one to have a baby before us that's close enough for it too impact, we still may end up calling her it. I'm not friends with him really only seeing him once a year at Christmas do as he is a work friend of DH, they are going by Ellie for her which I wouldn't do, it would be Ellen or Nell x

Blossom428 · 26/02/2021 07:22

@AnxiousAnnie86 ohhh yeah you can definitely still call yours that then. If it's not like a close friend.
Well OH wants to go through names once we know the gender. I've told him he needs to suggest some too. Guys are useless haha.
I think girl from looking at the scan, it looks a more rounded head. We shal seeeeree 😆

@Blossom428 the skull looks really similar to mine at 20 weeks! Girls seem to have the odds on this thread! Is it two girls to one boy so far?

OP posts:
TheOrangeMonster · 26/02/2021 08:07

@Blossom428 yes, 12 week scan. They dated me 1 extra day ahead.

@AnxiousAnnie86 doing ok thanks, feeling a lot better now.

I absolutely hated being in the antenatal unit though. Not sure why, just would've really preferred not to have had anyone else there at all except the medical staff. Might find online antenatal classes or a course I can do on my own.

JMassey · 26/02/2021 09:50

@AnxiousAnnie86

Yeah I think this is 4th change for her its so sad, looks good for going ahead now though 🤞

And No we don't know its a surprise! 😊 x

I think we all just need to get March out the way and time will speed up!!! March is going to be a long one for sure! X

mabelelsie · 26/02/2021 18:02

I agree with you all, March is going to drag!!

Good luck with the scan @Blossom428

Oh I love terriers, I have border collies but I did have a Westie who was such a character. @AnxiousAnnie86 the puppy must have brought the luck.

I’m feeling rough tonight, I didn’t expect to feel like I was on my period all the time!!

FemaleLady · 27/02/2021 15:13

@Blossom428 Thank you. congrates on your journey, i had my scan yesterday, found out we having a girl. i am sooo happy. Was hoping for a girl. Scan showed that everything was great, was worried cause i hadn't felt movement for 3 days. seeing her moving on the scan gave me sooo much relief, heart beat is strong too.

FemaleLady · 27/02/2021 15:17

Morning everyone

I have a bit of a gross question but I've been worrying about it and wondered if anyone had had the same thing.

So, occasionally, I have a sex dream that is so vivid that I actually have an orgasm in my sleep, which wakes me up. My husband thinks it's awesome, I find it weird. Well, I had one last night, and straight after the orgasm I had the severe cramp that is now a normal feature of orgasms.

When I went to the bathroom after getting up, I noticed brownish-yellow (actually pretty much gold) discharge when I wiped. I've never seen that before. It could have been stained because I'd just been for a wee, but I started to freak out that it was amniotic fluid or an infection or something (no itching or bad smells) and then I started thinking I could feel something weird going on in my lower abdomen - not cramping or pain, just a feeling. So now I'm freaking out and I'm not sure what to do because it's a Sunday, and my midwife doesn't answer the phone anyway, and both my consultants have been worse than useless since they promised me I'd be kept an eye on (literally failing to phone when they'd booked me an appointment, failing to provide prescriptions they promised me) etc etc.....

Anyone ever had the discharge thing?

FemaleLady · 28/02/2021 09:58

@AnxiousAnnie86 this is going to be really hard.. hahahha. i got nothing,,, i heard people say most of the time the name comes instantly after baby is born.. i wonder if it will be the same with me.

@TheOrangeMonster morning, sorry I'm not sure on the Cm, I've never had it before... I do get the odd cramp or uncomfortable feeling after DTD.

Could you call the maternity triage or a antenatal unit? I've called mine a few times as my midwife is useless and they've seen me literally straight away? Xx
