Interesting to read about heartburn/ acid reflux. Iโ€™ve not had that yet (fingers crossed) and hoping I donโ€™t.

Iโ€™m 16w5d and still vomiting. I get out of bed in mornings and after walking a few steps go to vomit. Even if thereโ€™s nothing in me, I just heave up saliva for 5 mins. Then I feel better??

so strange this pregnancy stuff. I thought the sickness would have stopped by now.

Iโ€™ve got a proper little bump now and love cradling it.

has anyone felt any movements yet? I havenโ€™t but hoping itโ€™s soon!

hope youโ€™re all feeling better! :)

This is a 4d pic i got at my private scan at 16w1d.

I love looking at her little face lol. I love her so much already.

Due January Part 4! ๐ŸŽ‰

Just ordered this from Asda/George. I'd been looking at the fancy pants Bella Moon ones but thought this was worth a go at that price, reviews look good too so ๐Ÿคž

Due January Part 4! ๐ŸŽ‰

Oh I think it's cut the price off. It was ยฃ24.50!

suz2285 · 20/07/2023 11:42

@lucya66 ah that's ace, I'm having a similar one at 16 weeks with the 4d sneak peak thing! Then a full 4d at 19 weeks! Where they will still look like an alien but ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚

lilluce95 · 20/07/2023 11:44

@lucya66 that's adorable ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ did you find out the gender at your private scan? I'm only 13 weeks so definitely no movements for me yet!

Salamander91 · 20/07/2023 11:59

I have GERD prepregnancy so not looking forward to how bad the reflux is gonna get. Its been a little worse the past few days but I've just started iron tablets so that may be why.

Lovely scan @lucya66 2 days until my 16 week scan ๐ŸŽ‰

lucya66 · 20/07/2023 12:47

Good luck with your scans ladies @Salamander91 and @suz2285 :)

sashastuck · 20/07/2023 15:56

@lucya66 that picture is adorableeeee!

Lilothblos · 20/07/2023 16:04

@lucya66 wow thatโ€™s amazing! Such a lovely picture!

I havenโ€™t felt any movements yet, only 14w6d though so it may still be a few weeks.

Flossiepot · 20/07/2023 16:06

@lucya66 how cute! I was so nervous about ours next week getting a sneak pic of 4d but quite looking forward to it now. ๐Ÿ˜
I'm just over 15weeks now and definitely getting strange flutters in my stomach. Can't believe how far were all getting now ๐Ÿฅฐ

RG9895 · 20/07/2023 16:08

@lucya66 omg how amazing!! This makes me so excited for mine! 6 days to to!

Im just over 15 weeks and been feeling little bubbles for few days but I could have sworn i just felt baby move their arm it was like a swipe quite a few times. This is my first pregnancy, is that even possible?!

lilluce95 · 20/07/2023 17:11

@lucya66 seeing your photo made me cave and book a private scan at 16 weeks ๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ˜‚

lucya66 · 20/07/2023 17:26

@lilluce95 yes we found out the gender at the private scan! Well they gave it us in an envelope and we did our own mini reveal to each other later. Didnโ€™t want to find out the gender in the roomโ€ฆ

:) good luck with your scan and share pics if you feel comfortable:)

lucya66 · 20/07/2023 17:28

@RG9895 that sounds like the first flutters!! How exciting. I think itโ€™s such a unique feeling youโ€™ll know it canโ€™t be anything else. I felt one tiny movement which felt like wind but in my uterus ๐Ÿคช never had that before, but like little bubbles of wind moving!

desperate to feel it again but it was a couple of weeks ago. The sonographer told me itโ€™s around 19 weeks you feel them as the gain a bit more weight. Although could happen before!

lilluce95 · 20/07/2023 17:34

@lucya66 ahh I love that! Are you keeping it a secret? ๐Ÿ˜†

Definitely will, mines not until august though as I'm only 13w at the minute! Xx

Hummusanddipdip · 20/07/2023 17:54

I was told at my 12 week scan I'm unlikely to feel much movement from this one until even later on than normal, as although baby was crazy active while there, my placenta is on the front, so may cause issues with feeling movement?

To be fair, with ds I didn't feel much until I was about 25 weeks, but then I didn't show until 28 weeks, I'm very clearly pregnant now, I look about 5 months gone ๐Ÿคฃ

RG9895 · 20/07/2023 17:58

@lucya66 its not happened since but was only a few hours ago, will wait and see if it happens again! It was so weird!! I've definitely not felt that before! Haha love it, thats what Ive had the past week or so! My placenta is at the back (so far, could change they said) so hoping it is baby and feel stronger movements within the coming weeks!

youaremysunshine03 · 20/07/2023 18:04

Jealous of you all feeling movement/flutters!! Iโ€™m 15+1 and donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve felt anything yet. Was hoping Iโ€™d feel something soon as itโ€™s not my first pregnancy. I had an anterior placenta with my first so really hoping I donโ€™t have that again!

Just over a week until our scan and we can find out the gender! Taking our DD with us ๐Ÿ’›

sashastuck · 20/07/2023 18:14

Iโ€™ve felt one flutter which I posted about on here and others said theyโ€™d felt it! Nothing since thoughโ€ฆ Itโ€™s the first time I had a lie in weeks/months so maybe thatโ€™s why - I donโ€™t normally lie still for that long!

RG9895 · 20/07/2023 18:23

@youaremysunshine03 hopefully you feel it soon! I asked at my 12 week scan and they told me it was posterior but it can move up to around 20 weeks apparently so we will see...

So exciting isn't it! Mines on Wednesday and I feel like these days are dragging now ๐Ÿ˜‚

@sashastuck that is very true! Im gonna go lay down and think about if i can feel anything hahaha

Also has anyone noticed their heart rate it fast? My resting rate has gone up by about 10 bpm but I know the midwife said that is normal but im just always aware of it beating now!

Redpanda21 · 20/07/2023 18:31

Iโ€™m 13+5 and have had the odd movement, at least once a day for the last week.

I felt my first about 15 weeks, second about this time and third around 16 weeks as had an anterior placenta with him.

So entirely possible to feel baby early with an anterior placenta.

sashastuck · 20/07/2023 19:08

@RG9895 Iโ€™m completely obsessive about my heart rate, Iโ€™ve actually had to wean myself off looking at my fitbit app. Was tracking it every day since starting TTC! Itโ€™s
gone up by about 10bpm as well. I thought it was meant to be higher and worry every time it drops by a couple! Midwife said itโ€™s normal range so yours sounds good too x

FirstT1meMum · 20/07/2023 21:11

Is it normal to have experienced very few body changes at 15w+4?

It's so lovely hearing people talk about how their body is changing and feeling movements ect and its got me thinking that nothing for me has changed yet....

I am overweight so I'm not expecting to see a bump yet but my boobs haven't really changed at all and I'm still not feeling very pregnant.

Not sure if I'm just having some scanxiety as I've got a private scan next week and I always seem to catastrophise beforehand.

Hummusanddipdip · 20/07/2023 21:19

@FirstT1meMum please don't worry, it's totally normal!!!

With ds apart from severe morning sickness in the first trimester, I genuinely passed as not pregnant until 28 weeks. After the 1st trimester was over, I stopped feeling ill and my body didn't (externally) change for months. And because I popped at 28 weeks I only got to enjoy looking pregnant for 9 weeks ๐Ÿคฃ

With this one, I have an obvious bump at 14 weeks and my boobs have gone up a band size and 2 cups, but bar that nothing else has changed.

Every pregnancy is different and there will be lots of women like you, who still haven't experienced any noticeable physical changes, it's normal I promise.
