Hi all
I could see the other thread only had a few posts left so thought I'd do a new thread before i missed the chance like last time & we lost people 🙈

@CaptainCarp thanks for creating the new thread!

@Capricorn8990 I’m no expert but I think it looks like a bump as it’s quite rounded at the bottom 🥰 I have a tiny bump when I eat but I know it’s only bloat but I love it!

Lianna93 · 05/01/2022 17:11

@CaptainCarp Thank you 🥰

@Capricorn8990 Id say you've got a bump! 🥰

feliznavidad2 · 05/01/2022 17:13

Thanks @CaptainCarp

Capricorn8990 · 05/01/2022 17:29

@Coco9910 @Lianna93 ahhh that's exciting! I've always dreamt of having a bump as sad as that sounds 🙊 xx

Hi guys!

We had our 12 week scan today, it took a while to sink in that it was our baby on the screen. Its so lovely telling people without the 'But we' re only... ' was dated at 11+5 which matches my original calculations.
Hope youre all keeping well. Constapation and bload are major symptoms for me, i was also a stone heavier today than a year ago (some of that gained pre-preg) but its mental! I have been very fatigued and completely unmotivated to cook healthy or exercise, so think this will be a kick up the bum to get moving!

SamanthaVimes · 05/01/2022 19:24

@hope3821 you don’t need to sleep on your side yet but if you want to make sure you put a pillow between your knees, it’ll help with the hip pain

nadgersbadgers · 05/01/2022 19:35

@honeypea did you get the call?

Hope went well xx

nadgersbadgers · 05/01/2022 19:36

I'm now 12+3 and given in - maternity leggings are on! Omg so comfortable. I'm already a stone heavier than Pre pregnancy. Christmas was just a binge.

I feel grim!

Effram · 05/01/2022 19:45

thank you for the new thread @CaptainCarp !

I've been in maternity jeans and leggings for a while... deffo no hiding this bump!

JJ1992 · 05/01/2022 19:55

Glad im not the only one! Had been living in leggings and dresses over christmas and put on my 'big' jeans today.. Button was off after an hour! Here we go 😂👖🚫

HoneyPea · 05/01/2022 19:56

[quote nadgersbadgers]@honeypea did you get the call?

I did but it was just a call to say I will need to have a scan with a consultant and that they have booked one for the 24th Jan. I guess I will just need to wait for the combined results with the blood test first and then look at next steps which I think will be amnio from what the sonographer said.
Thank for the new thread @CaptainCarp
I have had a bump since about 8/9weeks so lots of people had already guessed. They asked yesterday if my notes were wrong and I was there for 20week scan as I apparently have an impressive bump. This was bump last week at 12+2

Due July 2022 (thread 3)
nadgersbadgers · 05/01/2022 20:32

@HoneyPea how worrying for my you but here's a big squeeze hope everything's ok xx

Firsttimemum38 · 05/01/2022 20:57

Thanks for starting a new thread.

I've still not had my scan appointment for 12 weeks and I'm 12 next week! Should I chase my midwife?

laurenGame · 05/01/2022 21:02

@Effram I don't drink enough water 😬 I also can sometimes suffer with constipation but with pregnancy it's escalated. Thanks I will really really try now to drink more 🤞

@HoneyPea wow what a bump! I'm having bump envy over here Grin

I need to get pregnant pillow - I'm using a normal pillow and think I'm pressing it into my belly too much. Last night was officially the first night when I was uncomfortable sleeping on the belly - I'm a bit excited about that fact 😁

In other news, it feels like I'm the only one still having morning sickness at 14w2d !

CaptainCarp · 05/01/2022 21:10

@Capricorn8990 i would definitely say you've got the start of a bump there!

@HoneyPea wow I would have definitely put you as more than 12 weeks.

I think if you're slim you show a lot earlier. One silver lining about having chub, i still just look fat 😂
Think its going to be a bit of a shock for people when I have to go in the office if its not for a few week!

CaptainCarp · 05/01/2022 21:17

@Firsttimemum38 i think i had nearly 2 weeks notice of my scan date & my midwife said between 10-14 weeks. I would definitely ask in case its got lost in the Christmas post as well.

@laurenGame I'm still getting some sickness & im 14+2 as well! It is getting a little bit easier to brush my teeth but the nausea strikes at random times.

@Firsttimemum38 I called the hospital antenatal department ultra sound and asked the clerk when my appt was - she told me over the phone. The letter never arrived 🤣

WotsitMum · 05/01/2022 21:33

@laurenGame ive still got morning sickness bad😔 i had it right up till i gave birth with my first so im expecting to have it right up to birth again

Hannah1st · 05/01/2022 22:46

Hi everyone! I'm new here and this will be my first comment. I'm also due July 2022. Will be my first baby, I'm very excited!

Currently I still have morning sickness, feel tired all the time and have headache. Hope can feel better soon

Also, I would like to ask a question about Maternity leave. I started new job last October, probation period is 6 months. I'm not sure whether I'm entitled to maternity leave and worry that it affects my work. That's why I didn't mention to colleagues yet. Does anyone know info about it? Thank you

Firsttimemum38 · 05/01/2022 23:01

@nadgersbadgers that's a great shout thanks. Annoyingly the midwife. Said triple check your letter as you may be sent to any of three locations in the hospital trust, which are three different hospitals! Typical 🤦‍♀️
