[Lillers]

New thread seeing as the other one is full! I’ll try to tag as many people as I can seeing as the other one is full so I can’t post a link…

@MudandMoet I am sure I was painting bedrooms at 30 weeks first time around it perhaps my bodies way of telling me to rest at the moment.

Going to try next for the big ones as M&S let me down haha.

Whilst I'm here I'm starting to worry re babies head. It is always smaller in scans 9/10th percentile and her body is just under 50th... So on charts plotting much smaller. Both at NHS and private. Neither of them mentioned this. So I guess it's totally fine but I do wonder if that is okay ? 🥴 Any ideas anyone?
In fact it says on my 20 week report 5 days behind DD going by HC

I am feeling a bit nervous, I have my scan tomorrow. We will find out whether we are having a boy or a girl, I had a feeling it may be a boy but not sure now.

I am the queen of constipation, my god. Someone on here recommended lactulose a month ago and the relief it gave me was brilliant. Worked within 3 hours after taking 45ml. Lactulose hasn't been working for me this week for some reason, then yesterday I had 3 satsumas and I was able to go to toilet. I had another 1 today and it happened again! So those currently clogged up, it might be worth a go! It is awful when you need to go but can't so get your frustration.

Best of luck to all the 20 week scans this week

Found out today that MIL is a tummy toucher. She came round this morning, first time we’ve seen her for a while, and rather than greeting me with a hug like normal, she greeted me with a tummy grab. I’m not a big fan but I figured I don’t see her too often and she’s just excited about her first grandchild!

@Lillers rather you than me the tummy touching makes me feel nauseous.

My hips are really hurting and I feel like it’s the start of PGP. I need to start doing some daily stretches to try and slow it but motivation is low atm.

Absolutely dreading our appointment with fetal medicine tomorrow but also will be glad when we have the answers to questions that are going round my head at. Xx

@MrsM89 I hope it goes well tomorrow - you must have been in absolute turmoil over the last week or so. Good luck, I’ll be thinking of you.

Good luck @MrsM89, hope you’ll get positive news and can relax! Also good luck to everyone having their 20 weeks scan!

Good luck @MrsM89 xx

Good luck @MrsM89 ❤️

I'm really behind with reading on this thread atm but came to ask if anyone has any sore throat / cough remedies.

I don't think I can stomach honey and water.

Spent all weekend in hospital with the HG and left with a stinking cold and cough and the coughing is making me vomit more which is really not ideal

@Happylittlebump I'm also in for my scan tomorrow. Also feeling a bit anxious!

@mrsbgb good luck tomorrow! You've done amazingly well with the horrible wait. Hope all goes as well as possible

Hope everything goes well for you both tomorrow 🌻💛 @mrsbgb @Happylittlebump

Good luck to all having their scans/appointments tomorrow 💛

@MrsM89 Especially you, you are in my thoughts, I’m crossing my fingers for your little dumpling 💚

@WinsandSam good luck to you tomorrow, and to everyone else having their scans/appointments this week.

I’ve been thinking of you the past few days @MrsM89 and hoping you get the very best news tomorrow 🌼

Good luck tomorrow everyone for all scans/appointments.

Just catching up with messages. I'm now feeling much stronger kicks. And even caught my tummy bouncing on video. My husband and son finally felt them too which took some time since little man likes to stop as soon as they try to feel anything 🤣

Also been in work today and by end of the day the bump was feeling so heavy and uncomfortable and I'm not big at all yet 😩 I had PGP in my last pregnancy but more towards the end and just hoping it doesn't kick in again so soon.

@BeautyAndTheBump1 I think there were some remedies for a sore throat a few pages back in this thread. So sorry that you’re still suffering so much with HG, I can’t even imagine what you’re going through x

Sorry, and you @WinsandSam! I’m awful at keeping up with posts 🤦🏻‍♀️ let us know how it goes x

Oh gosh and you @MrsM89!! Sending you so much love and positive thoughts. Keep us posted 💛

Is that five of us with scans tomorrow?!

Best of luck with scans ladies!! Sending positive vibes everyone's way 🤗

Hope they don't jimmy you all about too much with full bladders like mine did at my last!! 😂

Good luck to everyone with scans this week!

21 + 4 tomorrow and everyone's feeling the kicks now my mum felt today! Also can see baby girl being very active the bump is moving when she kicks! Love it now it's so frequent feels so reassuring.

Is it your second @TripleESept24? I am four days behind you and can’t feel a thing, let alone anyone else seeing/feeling him…

I am six days behind you 😅
