Good luck ladies with their scans due today hope babies play nicely

I seem to have gone back to feeling very sick in the mornings too and I am still taking my anti sickness meds I think that is the only reason I am not throwing up

I am sick of clothes at the moment I just wish I could stay in my PJ's all day long! maternity wear is all still a little too big around the bump and nomal clothes are too tight around the bump underwear is my nemesis too

Scan in 6 hrs can't wait or sleep I'm so anxious to see baby again

 

[Mrs_Bump]

Little lady has been so much quieter the last couple of days, after being super active for a while. Wish she would develop a pattern sooner. Especially as I've been told its extra important for be to monitor her movement.

 

[Twag]

Yup my little lady has been the same very quiet this weekend & today hoping she starts to move about more regularly soon! I do wonder if it is because I am so busy chasing about after DS at the weekends I just do no feel her as much or I am not as focused on it

Hope she starts kicking about soon Mrs Bump

 

[Amcolecchi]

My little girl never has a pattern either!!! I wish mine did too!!

 

[Twag]

Maybe it is a girl thing and we are so used to boys kicking really hard???

Ouchie she is stretching about in there at the moment and I can feel her pushing against my tummy nice but ouch

 

[Amcolecchi]

Twag- could be! I am also carrying lower and my son I was so high I felt everything in my ribs. My midwife said it's still early so she wasn't worried, so we shouldn't be either but it's hard not too lol!

 

[Twag]

I started feeling her much sooner than I did with DS so it seems like it has been ages and I should see a pattern but I guess it is still early and tbh you don't really see a proper fixed pattern until 28 weeks which is still a way off

BUT 24 weeks and V DAY this Saturday coming

BunInTheBelly: today I'm going on the pursue of finding my cheese grater again.

Good luck in the scan today ladies hope babys shows up well.

My baby is moving more in this two past days, yesterday my OH finally could feel the baby but the movements are still smooth.

I never had anything in DS crib besides the sheet. I put him in Halo sleepsack or 'swaddle me' blanket to keep him warm. He started sleeping with a Teddy around 18 months and now that he's in a toddler bed he has a blanket and pillow.

I hate maternity clothes too, they never fit right. I pretty much live in Maxi dresses or skirts all summer long. And just buy the extra long tank tops.

We have a boys name set. But I'm no longer telling people because I hate the way some people react and I like the name so I don't want other people's opinions ruining it. It took forever for me and DH to find one we both liked so we're sticking with it. If people ask I just tell them we aren't sure yet. Girls name we had picked out was Josie but we won't be needing to use that.

 

[Mrs_Bump]

I'm 5'11" so nothing is long enough towards the end.

 

[Trying4BbyBoy]

Baby is fine and healthy but Im quite disappointed to know we're having another girl *tears* I actually cried and everything I guess God didn't intend on me raising a son I know I'll get over it eventually....

 

[Twag]

Glad baby is all okay and sorry you didn't get your son

 

[littlesteph]

well had my scan today, it's another boy. was so sure it was a girl, everything pointed to a girl, wasn't as disappointed as I thought i'd be. We've now just got to think of a name for the little guy.
he's a little small, all his organs are right on track, he's head is a little small and his body even smaller. he's length was measuring 18+5 weeks, had a sneaky peak as I usually do. My waters are also looking low on my scan pictures but they didn't seem concerned.

 

[Trying4BbyBoy]

Since I've been telling everyone its starting to sink in. Also hubby was happy so Im happy now

Here's her picture, we're naming her Trinity

 

[Twag]

Congrats ladies

 

[Smile181c]

Congrats guys!

Glad to hear you're feeling better about team pink xx

 

[BunInTheBelly]

Steph and T4BB, I'm glad for the healthy scans, and sorry that they did bring some gender disappointment. Take the time you need to adjust. I read a piece an author wrote on the matter, basically said of course as a mom you love your new child, but if you had daydreams about having a relationship with someone you're now not going to meet, it's only natural for it to feel bittersweet.

I'd hoped for a boy, convinced myself it was a girl, then when I was at the store the first time after finding out it was a boy I was all "hey, not fair, there's 3x as much cute girls stuff!"

 

[Mimzy3]

Congrats on the healthy scans. Lilsteph maybe he's small from how sick you were. Hopefully he'll catch up now that you're feeling better and can prob give him more nutrition

Trying4bbyboy glad DH is happy and you're coming around. Lest she will have big sisters. I know I love having my big sis.

 

[littlesteph]

I hope so, other wise it means them getting him out early. I have my next scan in 8 weeks, but whether that will change when my midwife see the results from the scan on don't know.
