Thanks @Justanothercyster I'd definitely consider Pfizer in a couple of months when I'm further along, just don't feel ready yet! Typical early pregnancy anxiety

Kate105 · 24/05/2021 19:48

Another Pfizer taker here! πŸ™‹πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ and no side effects bar a slightly sore arm. Booked in for my second dose in August as a wedding anniversary treat πŸ˜‚

My booking appointment was over the phone but then went in just for the bloods bit. Since then I've been in person though πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Justanothercyster · 24/05/2021 19:54

@2020mission completely get it, I was the same!

@Kate105 ooh I've got my second in august too, fun fun! And our wedding anniversary haha, ours is 08.08.18, what about you?

I've just had to check πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ and it's the 3rd August so not the 4th when I've booked my jab after all πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

@2020mission I'm with @lucyrp I read that you can have it but wait till 2nd trimester. I'm still on the fence whether to have it or not but have not been invited yet anyway. X

Justanothercyster · 25/05/2021 10:28

@Kirky658 you can just turn up if pregnant where we are x

I'm a bit concerned I might be anaemic ladies. I'm absolutely knackered, pale, and always feeling very cold. Going to ask if I can get some bloods done at my consultant appt on Thurs to check. X

lucyrp · 25/05/2021 16:22

@Kirky658 how many weeks are you now ? X

Kirky658 · 25/05/2021 17:03

@lucyrp I'm 24 weeks tomorrow, how about you hun? Xx

lucyrp · 25/05/2021 17:05

@Kirky658 28 weeks yesterday! I feel like this pregnancy has gone way too fast! It was going too slow and now so fast 😩πŸ₯Ίxx

Kirky658 · 25/05/2021 17:25

@lucyrp I'm so with you there, it was dead slow till 18 weeks or so then omg it's racing past now... X

lucyrp · 25/05/2021 19:32

@Kirky658 I kind of want it to slow down but then I don't! So mad how I could have a baby in 10 weeks πŸ₯Ίx

Kirky658 · 25/05/2021 19:56

@lucyrp so so crazy. I've just had a long relaxing soak in the bath and been watching my belly move as our little girl is kicking away! So bizarre after no movement till about 2 weeks ago 🀣❀️

lucyrp · 25/05/2021 19:59

@Kirky658 my baby is so active now its unreal. Sometimes makes me feel sick there's so much movement πŸ˜– lovely feeling though x

Kirky658 · 25/05/2021 20:05

@lucyrp it really is ❀️ it is so reassuring to know she's there and well. Think she's kicking my bladder though as I constantly need to pee haha x

Thinkingandblinking · 25/05/2021 21:31

Screening results back and all ok, massive relief!

Think I must still be in the go slow phase, feel like I still need some weeks to make this feel real! Haven’t told our boys yet, and haven’t decided if we are going to find out boy or girl, think we are just so shocked to get this far...

Told boss yesterday, he has been a complete arse since so that’s lovely...

SamoyedFan123 · 26/05/2021 06:06

Hi ladies, sorry I've been MIA again - we're all full of stinking colds and I'm just feeling so rough all the time that I'm struggling a bit tbh. I'm looking for to it being over now - had forgotten how tough the third trimester is!

@Thinkingandblinking wonderful news on the screening results 😊
@Kirky658 are you taking an iron supplement already? If not get yourself some spatone ASAP as it won't harm you and it takes a few weeks to have an effect so the sooner the better. Tahr it with orange juice half an hour before you eat anything else to make sure it absorbs..
So we've decided to try to stay put training the twins on Saturday in the hopes that the worst of it will be over before LO arrives - are we mad?

Kirky658 · 26/05/2021 06:40

@thinkingandblinking great news on the screening tests. My boss was also fine when told but is now behaving like an arse so you're not alone.

@samoyedfan123 I'm taking pregnacare already so unsure if it is just general knackeredness! I also have a lovely stretching pain on my lower left side which is actually becoming quite painful 😣

Kate105 · 26/05/2021 07:38

Great news on the tests @Thinkingandblinking but sorry about the shit boss... Mine's off sick and I have to say it's been rather peaceful πŸ˜‚

Rescan today! I've packed some sweets so if it still won't budge, I'm stuffing the baby with E numbers. Top mother points already πŸ˜‚

lucyrp · 26/05/2021 17:00

Forgot to update you all, had my 28 week appointment on Monday and had bump measured currently above the top percentile but not being sent for a growth scan yet have to wait until my 31 week appointment and see if it's following the same trend or jumped bigger again. If that's the case will then get sent for a scan. Also had my bloods taken and she's going to check my liver function for me to see if anything has been going on with my gallstones and if something flags up I have to go and see a consultant. Went to see one friends baby this morning and then had my hair done with other friend who also has a baby! Can't wait until mines here to cuddle! Think we should do a bump update ladies, I'll start with mine!πŸ₯°

2020mission · 26/05/2021 17:05

Lovely bump photo @lucyrp and glad you are getting your liver function tested for the gallstones. I will pass on the photo since I'm still flat at 9 weeks πŸ˜† you'll all have had your babies by the time I'm showing!

lucyrp · 26/05/2021 17:08

@2020mission I started to show at around 12 weeks so shouldn't be too long for you! I don't think I have a very big bump but everyone else seems to think I look full term πŸ™Š

Kirky658 · 26/05/2021 17:20

@kate105 how did the rescan go?
@lucyrp glad all is OK and they're keeping an eye on you lovely. Beautiful bump 😍

I'm currently battling the most awful pains on my low left side, like pulling and stretching pains. Think it's round ligaments but it's so sore. Doesn't help that's around where the endo was removed last summer so I guess that's why I'm seeing the consultant tomorrow! This is my last weeks pic. Not much change in size but today's I'm in my knickers and bra and no one needs to see that 🀣

@Kirky658 I had a lot of ligament pains around my belly a few weeks ago, can be painful!

Kate105 · 26/05/2021 20:49

Rescan went well thankfully! Didn't even need the E numbers πŸ˜‚ scan pic and most recent bump pic for your perusal... My OH thinks I'm massive already and I'm trying to help him understand that there is so much more to come πŸ˜‚πŸ™ˆ
