2015 October Owls! | The chicks are hatching! *16 boys & 8 girls so far!*

Yay flibberty! Congrats :)

Rainstorm, that's great news! Would definitely put my money on a girl as well xx
 
Hi girls, I haven't posted here in a while cos my 12 week scan got moved and I was very anxious, but I was able to finally get it done today and my lo seems to be in perfect condition, everything was perfect, the NT scan measured great and the technician dared predict a girl, though she warned it was too early to tell. That would be cool cos I already have a boy, but I wouldn't have minded another boy. I'm just so happy she's healthy!
Oh! I measured a week earlier so I'm moving my date from the 15th to the10th approximately

Congratulations hun ! I think it looks like a girl too that's if the skull theory is anything to go by lol.

I have a question to ask you ladies. It's embarrassing not here but for when I'm in public !! I'm gasy soooo gasy and it smells so so bad. I go to the toilet daily so it's not constipation. Anyone experiencing this?

Xx
 
LOL

Chrissy, it's just one of the many joys of pregnancy! Totally normal, haha
 
Rainstorm that's a lovely pic!!

Yeah gas is part of this lol xx

Is a pack n play the same thing as a travel cot? I'm definitely getting one of those. Had them with both my other kids xx
 
We bought the Snuzpod for my last baby, absolutely loved it and will definitely be using it again.

Oh really? Oh thats Great news, i don't know anymore who has used one... so i was kinda leaping into the darkness... But glad it was worth it. It ticks all the boxes for me thats for certain, it was awful getting in and out the bed to pick my daughter up, to feed her and then put her back again after a C-Section everything is a struggle at first... Ill just be able to pull the baby in with me and also keep an eye on it whilst I'm laid down too.

Howdy owls! Just a quick update for those that remember me!

I'm pregnant again! I can't believe it! All natural too, no clomid. Getting a little Christmas pudding (all being well) and I've been started on progesterone so hopefully everything goes well this time.

Congrats to you all, I'll keep silently stalking x

OMG Flibberty that is excellent news!!! Congrats hunnie, I've got everything crossed that this pregnancy continues and you get your little pudding :D

Boo Tally, although my alarm clock aka DD woke me up at that time too!

What's everyone's plans for today? We are going to a local farm for a easter egg hunt :D

We've been out all day, we went to Robin Hoods Bay Fossil digging etc... then onto Scarborough for play on the beach then followed by fish and chips... it was a FAB day :)

Wow that pretty much looks like a little girl to me :)... Im adamant I'm carrying a girl, and the nub looked exactly the same as yours on the screen :)
 
So... I got one of those pregnancy pillows yesterday for a great deal $32 tax included... and idk if it's just be but that thing gave me fits all night. I've been sleeping with an old pillow between my legs and now the pillow has thrown me off. Has anyone else used one... link below.

They usually have a 2-4 in one functionality!....they can be used as bassinets/changing stations (some have storage pockets/divisions), some include a rocking chair as nmpjcp posted and then when they get older it serves as a little play pen area and it can be folded up and taken on the go!

My husband bought me a snoogle and I probably have been using it the past 2-3 weeks and i like it so far, I probably will love it once this belly gets bigger!
 
That's what I was thinking! That's cdelmar... maybe I'll like more once the belly gets bigger.
 
Thanks for the comments on my scan!!
I used that pillow during my first pregnancy. The last tri it would have been impossible to sleep without it. The I used it to nurse lo and he used it as a prop when learning to sit, so even though it wasn't cheap, it was a great buy
 
I was going to try one of those pillows, but wasn't sure if I should just invest in some extra pillows instead. My husband says I hog the bed already with my 3 pillows.
 
We paid 50 bucks for one of those pillows. Leach or something. I use it for part of the night but then I get too hot. Sleeping just isn't working for me. Maybe the pillow will help more when I'm bigger. I can't stand that I can't move around when I'm sleeping. My abdomen, maybe the uterus will hurt, kind of like a pulling feeling when I change position in bed. even just moving from side to back. So annoying, and worrying - seriously can I not move without hurting my baby?
 
I haven't posted in here for awhile but I've been reading and trying to keep up to date. I'm 11 weeks 4 days and tomorrow DH and I go to meet our midwife and get another ultrasound. I'm having a lot of anxiety about it tonight although I've been fine until today. I'm terrified of a MMC. I want to see a healthy baby so badly if lose it if something turns out to be wrong. I'm grateful my husband is coming because he's my support system emotionally. I've also jus reached the point where my nausea is starting to subside although y appetite is still poor. I think whats contributing the most are my vivid dreams though. None are about baby really but none are pleasant. It's like the las month I've had nothing but awkward uncomfortable or even scary dreams. It's makes it difficult because although I'm sleeping a lot it doesn't feel restful when I've woken up. Is anyone else having this? And I mean NO good or pleasant dreams for weeks now. It's terribly off putting :(

Who says you can't move? You can lay any way that's comfortable. Left side, right side, you can even lay on your back as long as you don't feel like your heart starts to race or your circulation in your legs is off. My doc says I can lay on my back as much as I want, as long as it's comfortable. He said even if I'm asleep, if I lay a wrong way, I will move on my own long before baby is affected.
 
Shelby, I'm sorry you're having bad dreams! It's unfortunately a common problem in pregnancy. :(

Sending you good vibes for your scan! I can't wait to see your post about seeing a wriggly baby. At this point, chances are SO MUCH BETTER that things are perfect than something is wrong. Just remember that. :hugs:
 
Ginger - I can't move because I feel a painful pulling sensation when I move at all in bed.

Shelby - I've had horrible dreams too. Some are very uncomfortable and make me sick when I wake up, and other are just nightmares. I've always had sort of odd dreams but they've definitely become more intense and disturbing since becoming pregnant.
 
Sounds like some hella strong round ligament pains! Maybe you'll pop soon!
 
Ginger - so you think it sounds good and not something to worry about?
 
As always, if you're really concerned, you should ask your doctor. But stretching and pulling is normal at this stage, especially when you make twisting movements (like rolling over in bad or getting up too quickly). They do hurt! But they're normal.

However, if you are constantly in extreme pain from it and can't move at all in bed, even slowly, I would probably ask my doctor.
