@annlee3817 well I hope it stays at tiredness and a sore throat and that altogether it’ll be relatively mild for you. Fingers crossed for a quick recovery!
@EverydayIsPJday doesn’t it feel like such a weight off to finally tell work? I did last week and I felt so much better. Sucks about the other manager handing in her notice but, like you said, nothing you can do about that. They’ll manage.
Side note about work and the start of maternity leave: is it unreasonable for me to think I’ll be able to work up until like the week I give birth? I work from home and I’m having to take a very limited leave (4–6 weeks), so I’m trying to save that all for recovery and such. What do you guys think?
@handbagsandholidays thank you!
@Billymay congrats on the screening results! When is your 20-week scan? Mine is April 29th and I’m already so so so anxious about it. and it feels like it’s so far away! I’m so glad everything ended up well with your daughter! No wonder you’re nervous after an experience like that!
@Whatelsecouldibecalled yesss! So happy to hear that the spotting has eased off! Obv you know what I will say about getting the scan as I got it even though my spotting had eased off too. The reassurance was worth it. However, if you have a regular scan already scheduled (like this week or next) and think you can hold off and that your anxiety is in check, then it might be worth it to wait for you. For me, my next scan isn’t until April 29th and my nerves and fears were all-consuming, so I definitely wouldn’t have been able to wait that long. I reasoned that the stress of worrying wouldn’t be good for me or the baby and so I spent the money and had the private scan. It was really worth it. I feel sooooo much better knowing she’s good in there.
@TotoAnnihiliation That’s crazy about the nipple tingles from the baby crying! How far along are you again? I’m now going to seek out crying babies in grocery stores and see if I have the same reaction haha
@stimpyyouidiot ugh sorry you’re sick again 
@ShiningStarz right now they have my 20-week scan scheduled for when I’m actually going to be 18+6. Do you think I should call and doublecheck if that’s far along enough to do the 20-week scan? I don’t want to question them or have them take it the wrong way, but I definitely want to make sure that everything is developed enough to get an accurate reading. Then again, I’m really hoping it’s fine bc I’d love to get it over with as soon as humanly possible...
@weddingaug2019 congrats on the baby girl news!
@madeleine85 that’s crazy that you and @annlee3817 are so far ahead! Are you guys due really early September? I have to admit, I’m a little jealous. But I’m also really thankful to you guys for trailblazing for the rest of us
