November 2025

[Esssa]

Anyone else for November 2025 yet? Technically I'm due Halloween but highly likely to be a first half of November baby assuming everything goes well. 3+6 today and I've known since Tuesday at 3+3! Roll on double figures and feeling a bit more secure in it all.

Going for my gender scan tonight if anyone wants to take one last shot at a guess 🤞🏻 I have 3 girls already 💕

@MyZippyLemonBiscuit ohhh thats a hard one! i dont think i can see a nub visible 🤦🏻‍♀️ but as a complete guess because of where i think the bladder is, im going to say boy 💙

@MyZippyLemonBiscuit ah how amazing this is baby #4 for us and we already have 3 girls too! Our gender scan is Saturday! 🥰

It’s a boy ☺️ sonography wasn’t happy with the level of fluid around baby though so need to go to triage. Can’t find many positive stories online about this so if anyone has any please do share 😅 not feeling as celebratory as I should be now

@MyZippyLemonBiscuit congratulations to you 😊 glad i was right 😆 & the amniotic fluid itself hun? could be polyhydraminos maybe?.. i had that in my 4th pregnancy with my son but that was due to fact i had gestational diabeties.. please keep us updated and i hope you & baby will be ok 💕

Yes the amniotic fluid is significantly low apparently! I’m not sure how to do it so would you mind private messaging me? Would love to hear your experience! Thank you 💕

@MyZippyLemonBiscuit im not sure either how to private message so will have to google 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 ohhhh, thats opposite to what i had.. polyhydraminos is basically when theirs too much amniotic fluid! so unfortunatly, i wouldn't know what that means, have they explained anything further to you hun of what it may indicate? always here to listen if you ever need a chat 💕

@MyZippyLemonBiscuit hope your ok hun 💕 been thinking of you.. x

Thank you. Went for scan yesterday she could only see one kidney and said the bowel looked very bright, I’m sure it was noted that both kidneys were seen at gender though and the bright bowel could be from baby swallowing blood from my hematoma so staying positive. Got a specialist scan on Monday 💕

@MyZippyLemonBiscuit thats best attitude to have hun, just stay positive! all the best for monday 🤞🏻💕

All the best for Monday 🥰 @MyZippyLemonBiscuit.

Is anyone classed as high risk and under a consultant? I am for various things and had my first app this morning (well telephone call) and I’m going to have to take blood thinning injections from 28 weeks! I’m dreading it! Mainly due to my age and high BMI, I had them after my little boy in 2021 for 10 days post birth and I remember them making me bruise so much. I know it’s not the end of the world but I’m just not sure how I’m feeling about it 😕

I am due to the hematoma, low PAP-A and low fluid levels 😅

sorry to hear about you needing those injections, try remind yourself it’s a small price to pay for you and your babies health xx

Thanks @MyZippyLemonBiscuit, will be thinking about you on Monday! 🥰

Not posted in a while so just catching up but had my scan yesterday measured 13 weeks baby due 27th November, anyone any good at nub theory? 😂 xx

@Mummy1502 not an expert 😆 but swear i can see a girlie looking nub in 2nd photo 😊 so im going to predict.. GIRL 🩷

thread has gone quiet.. have you all moved over to whatsapp group? :/ x

Still here. We’ve had our first scan and it’s changed our due dates, looks like I ovulated early.

Hi everyone! Not been on here for a while. I’m 15 weeks now and had my first scan. All seems to be going okay up to now but I still find it hard to feel settled that all is okay. I haven’t felt any movements yet so hoping that I’ll feel a bit better when baby starts to kick. Even just a flutter would be nice! Hope you’re all doing okay!xx

@TenaciousOne whats your new due date then?

@HLouise94 glad everything seems to be going ok for you 😊 is this your first pregnancy? x

17 weeks, no movement yet. Only baby I hadn’t felt move was my second and I had an anterior placenta with her.

Was really hoping I’d have movement by now for some reassurance all is good. I’m terrified of having anterior placenta again in case it’s low lying and attached to section scar.

@xTinkerbell hi 👋🏻 im sure you will feel something within next week or so hun, but yes if its anterior it will affect on how strongly you can feel baby as the placenta acts like a cushion doesn't it, ive had an anterior placenenta before in my 2nd pregnancy & 4th and for me personally it was like 20+weeks before i could feel anything which was frustrating! And can i just ask/say, what was your experiences with a low lying placenta? as to be honest i hadn't mentioned anthing yet but i went to the EPAU on sunday as midwife refered me due to a bleed i had on friday which was scary!.. anyway, its been discovered not only do i have a small heamtoma and also an anterior placenta, but i also have a low lying placenta too 🤦🏻‍♀️ sonographer said it could move by my 20weeks scan which im hoping it will but i feel really scared by the prospect of this x

Handhold here as my hematoma has grown and is considered very large, they found I only have 2 vessels on the cord as well but regardless baby is thriving so far. I’m being monitored fortnightly and was told to prepare for baby having to be delivered early. It’s a scary thing! Don’t let them fob you off at any point, any amount of bleeding go and get checked as there’s risk of a big bleed wiping out the pregnancy I was told. Although I’ve had 3 massive bleeds soaking through pads etc and my boy is still clinging on ❤️

No it’s my 4th pregnancy! Sadly we only have our 4 year old at home though. Since him I’ve suffered a miscarriage at 11 weeks and my daughter was still born at 37 weeks in December. This is an exceptionally anxious pregnancy and if I’m honest, I’m not coping very well with all the worries. Some of them are very irrational! It’s just going to be a very difficult time getting through this pregnancy but praying that it will all be worth it 🙏🏻

I think the vast majority of hematoma resolve themselves by the 20 week scan so definitely stay hopeful!
