@wellitywell welcome! May is definitely a love time of the year for a birthday I think. We were hoping for May time 🥰

@Hope91 yes I do feel like delaying it. I'm not sure my mum can stay quiet and I know my sister definitely couldn't keep it quiet from the kids 😂 hopefully he comes down this week! I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

That's super cute about your anniversary! I got my 3+ at 5+1 (wanted to be sure) so hopefully you will get yours soon.

@maymum94 good luck! How exciting 🥰 Luckily we've got a morning one too, but not until 1st October! Then I'll be 8+3.

@haz452 from what I've read symptoms do fluctuate. I have zero nausea yet, and back ache which comes and goes. I actually had to sit down to wait it out this morning, it was so uncomfortable but now there's nothing! Hope you are ok x

haz452 · 13/09/2021 09:27

@Positive21 Thanks! How many weeks are you? I had a sore back but leading upto me falling pregnant and now it's disappeared xx

Positive21 · 13/09/2021 09:38

@haz452 I'm 5+6 now. Had a lot of back pain in week 3 and then week 4 it went. It's started again now, I just keep trying to remind myself it's my body doing it's thing 😅

Ladies, 💖💙💖💙

I have the most wonderful news to share and my baby’s first picture. We saw a beautiful healthy little bean bouncing around. I bursted into tears moment I heard the heart beat. It’s the most loveliest sound you can hear. I’m measuring about 7 1/2 cm so they have dated me a day earlier then I thought so I’m 6 + 6 and due on 3rd May.

We honestly couldn’t be happier.

Due May 22

Thank you ladies I'm honestly on such a high right now. I keep rubbing my belly and smile with joy. I can't wait for you all the have your scans and feel like this too it's honestly such an amazing feeling and even though this is my second baby the feels are just unreal. 🥰🥰

@maymum94 awwww this is amazing 😍 I was thinking of booking an early scan when I'm 8 weeks, but not sure I can wait that long! (currently 4+6)
Do you mind if I ask how they do the actual scan? X

Hope91 · 13/09/2021 10:22

@maymum94 I am so beyond happy for you this has actually made my day and made me so so excited :) what a lovely start to the week :) absolutely perfect xxx

ChelseaaBun · 13/09/2021 10:29

@maymum94 so so happy for you! How exciting!

Do any ladies who have had early scans mind sharing if they were able to have abdominal scans and see anything? I really want to book a scan but would prefer to wait until I can have an abdominal scan and I can't remember when you're likely to be able to see something abdominally (my DS was only born last year, can't remember a thing though 😂)

Sunshinealligator · 13/09/2021 10:46

@maymum94😍😍😍😍😍 great news! Thank you for sharing with us!

maymum94 · 13/09/2021 10:52

Okay ladies asking about how they do the scan. This is as an internal one so it's a small rod that inserted inside. A little uncomfortable but not painful but at this early stage abdominal doesn't pick up I think they do until 8weeks likes this. They didn't even attempt to do my belly went straight for internal. I'm a little weird so when I booked I actually rang and asked if a female sonographer was working and made a note for me. (I did this in my 1st pregnancy too)

@maymum94 ahh congratulations, that is beautiful! I gave in and booked an early scan for next Wednesday when I should be 6+5 so fingers crossed I get a healthy little bean with a heartbeat just like you. So lovely 💕

maymum94 · 13/09/2021 16:53

@MrsSE Thank you and that's exactly what I thought I was but they dated me earlier. I'm excited for you all now I've had mine I want yours all to come for you. Hopefully this week is quick for you.

This has brought a tear to my eye! I am 7 weeks today so not far away from you. You have given me an idea of what my baby looks like and its made me quite emotional. Thanks for sharing :)
maymum94 · 13/09/2021 19:09

@Expecttheunexpected2022 your a day ahead of me so I'd say your little bean is about the same size. It's honestly is such an experience seeing this little one son the screen so early in. It brings tears to my eye each time I look at it. X

Hi I hope you don't mind me joining! I'm 4 weeks 5 days today. Due around 19th May as per the nhs calculator. Just wanted to check, does everyone have cramps? I feel like I'm going to come on my period and I keep rushing to the toilet all of the time to check for blood. Had early miscarriage in April so I'm very anxious 😥
