Continuing on from thread 5!

Just had my 20 week scan! All good so far, and defo a baby boy he was showing off loads😅
Good luck to everyone else having their scans soon! x

@madeleine85 thanks lovely I might try yoga but not sure how flexible iam anymore my bones might break lol well I spoke to work I am dropping a shift I loose money but my baby is so much more important it's either that or when I am 26 weeks they will make me go on early maternity I was hell no. My other half got me a pillow yesterday and it's helped so much xx

@Chlox16 that's lovely news oh boys easy to spot they love showing it all off my 2 boys did bums to the screen Lol did you have yours at 20 weeks I am having mine at 21 weeks 2 days feels ages away x

@Sweetbabydust1989 haha yeah he must get that from his Dad😂 I'm 19 weeks 6 days so will be 20 weeks tomorrow.
It will come round soon don't worry! x

@Chlox16 oh boys are lovely I have 2 definitely for their mums I am having a girl this time so shall be interesting not liking the idea of my clothes and makeup getting robbed think I might have to pad lock that in a cupboard 😂 oh lovely yeah we go to a fetal medicine hospital the whole borough have to go there now no scanning done in case it local hospital it's a pain because of apps are really long xx

Well... we are having a boy!

20 week scan done except one measurement because he was in a funny position. I also saw on the report that my placenta is anterior. I can feel baby though so not worried about it.

Can't believe a boy! One of each!

There seems to be so many scan results today here and on the FB page, congratulations to all of you :)

@stimpyyouidiot I knew it!! Congratulations! With the weird breakouts and other similar early pregnancy symptoms I had a feeling yours was also a boy. This will also take us to one of each, which feels really great. Hope you guys are thrilled with your news x

@Sweetbabydust1989 glad the pillow is helping. My pillow is my new BFF, since introducing that I am finally able to walk, mostly pain free. Gamechanger!

Congrats @stimpyyouidiot sorry you had a grumpy sonographer though

@Sweetbabydust1989 glad the pillow has helped

@madeleine85 are you using a support band for running? That's been helping me and the sciatica, Also focussing on how I am running with the extra weight and how my feet are falling

Congrats @stimpyyouidiot that's amazing news! 🥳🥳🥳

Welcome @YouPutTheScrewInTheTuna 🥰 how lovely that you're having twins! I was panicking about movements, but I've been trying to tell myself it is pretty normal to only feel the odd kick at this stage. I've got my 20 week scan tomorrow so 🤞🏻 all is well - I do think baby has been kicking a bit more the past few days so hoping all ok. Lovely to have you with us!

Thank you @madeleine85 , @annlee3817 @HaresHoping !

I'm wondering if my placenta is high anterior because I can still feel things at the front. Hopefully the next sonographer is nice and will actually talk to me ! He didn't even give me enough tissue to wipe after so I was covered in the gel 🤦🏻‍♀️

Just had the 20 week scan today! Baby looked so cute moving around and yawning.
It’s such a relief to get through this milestone. Now I need to finally tell work!

@stimpyyouidiot I was wondering that too, I feel thuds in the front, but then the really obvious movement is on the sides. It doesn't feel that different from when I had a posterior placenta, but that was seven years ago lol so I am probably misremembering

@annlee3817 I know it can change as well the further in to pregnancy you get so who knows !

@annlee3817 I didn't know that was a thing?! Thanks for that, i'll have to look it up now.

@madeleine85 mine is similar to this one GABRIALLA Elastic Maternity Support Belt, Prevent Lower Back Pain and Stretch Marks, Lightweight Pregnancy Belly Band, Best Belly Band for Running and Exercising Moms, MS-96 BL S Black www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B005DFD0MM/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_M3T6P4ETZ0654VRT4ZT8?psc=1

@annlee3817 thank you so much!!!!

Just entering this thread. #6 already!
Lovely to see so many of you having your 20w scans; mines not until beginning of may - feels ages away!

I've been away this week and done a lot of walking - my pelvis was on fire one day and then the next day my pelvis was fine but my foot was super swollen and sore. What is this glamorous life 😂😂

Anyone else up at this time eating chocolate? 🙋‍♀️.... Guilty 🙄.

Definitely feeling the pelvic pain/sciatica worsening too. Might get that tubee grip from the midwife that she mentioned. Have physio starting next month so hopefully helps.

20 week scan this afternoon! Can't wait 😊. Anyone else's today?

Me @Belle2210 ! Mine is this morning. Slightly nervous but hoping we see the heartbeat quickly and I can then relax into it. It will be our first scan since we got the all clear at 17 weeks that our little boy doesn't have the genetic condition I'm a carrier of, so it will be an emotional one! ❤️ hope yours goes well!

Welcome @PrettyTulip to this oh so glam life 😂 how far along are you?

Brilliant news @Merryclaire that's fab!

Hope the scans go well today @HaresHoping and @Belle2210

@PrettyTulip hope the foot is better today

I've had a sore right hip since yesterday morning, felt like it kept cramping in the night, right on the hip bone, not fun

@Belle2210 I've been terrible with chocolate since the Easter holidays! Now I'm back at work I'll be better haha

Thanks @HaresHoping - I've been on the other threads too I'm just rubbish at keeping up like the majority of you 😂

I'm 18w - found out I'm a negative blood group too so I've got to have a blood test to find out if little'un is positive.. strange how they can check that hun

@HaresHoping Ofcourse! Knew there was someone but couldn't quite remember who had said. Hope both our scans go well 😊😊.

I've a new sweet tooth with pregnancy I never used to have. Hardly slept last night due to being achy from wrapping loads of books standing at a slightly low table (business) and constipation issues.... Think I'd rather morning sickness again than constipation.

*huh not hun 😅
