Welcome to the new ladies :flower:

Found out I have an anterior placenta! Which explains why I haven't felt any movement yet! Has anyone experienced this with past pregnancies? When did you first feel movement? X
 
3000 posts/300 pages, and we are not all even in to the second tri yet!!!! Lmao! Mamas of august babies can TALK! lol.

Anyway, I had an anterior placenta last time,and coupled with it being my first pregnancy, it was 20 weeks before I felt a kick, and still a while beyond then to feel regular movements. It is really really common, and it will muffle those early movements, but as things progress and space gets tight, you will still get the 'alien movie' squirming tummy and everything!! Xx
 
We sure can talk :)

I think I have been feeling baby move this week mainly at night when the kids are in bed and I'm just sat on the sofa. DH thinks I'm crazy because of it but I think he is just jealous because he can't feel baby yet xx
 
Welcome Foosh! You've been through so much, congratulations on your little miracle!

Wanababa I had an anterior placenta with my son and it masked his early movements well. I didn't feel anything at all till 19 weeks or so and when I did feel movements they were very light and days apart. I used to worry at first, because I wouldn't feel movement for up to three days sometimes. By the late twenty weeks though I was feeling proper huge movements. So it only affected the early movements for me.

I'm a little worried... I can't stop thinking about it. I had the NT scan yesterday, and I was watching her measure and the screen said 6 mm when she was measuring behind the neck, so what I assume was the NT fold they measure. They took bloodwork too and said if I don't hear from anyone by 5pm Monday then the results are normal, but I'm stressing big time. Anyone with any similar experiences?

I expect the 6mm was the size of the baby, our baby at 12+2 was 5.8mm with the NT pad at 1.9mm and I just go my results back today with 1 in 25,000 chance of baby having downs.

Try not to stress.

I am no further with my blood test results, my midwife is useless, glad shes the community midwife and wont be at the hospital where i have my baby.

So I still don't know if the anti bodies in my blood are an issue or not and I am fed up of chasing my midwife about it.

Will try ringing the hospital next week, am wondering if after my 20 week scan I can see a midwife at the hospital instead for everything...hoping so!

Got to see normal midwife at 16 weeks which I am already wondering whats the point as shes so useless!

2have4kids I am so sorry for your news :hugs:

Thanks, but she said our baby was 2 inches long. She was measuring behind the neck when the screen showed 6mm
 
Sorry I meant 58mm not 5.8mm!!!! :dohh: Which is about 2 inches for me too!
 
How is everyone?

I am feeling much better now, I have no idea what was wrong with me last week. DS has scarlet fever so he can't leave the house, what a good half term he will have! But I have started sorting bedrooms out for baby :) I have had to get DH to move draws and build a wardrobe :) got a box to put baby's stuff in for now and I'm surprised how much we actually have left over from DD. DH thinks I'm nesting all ready but I am just fed up of my house being a mess!

Does anyone know when there 20 week scan is yet? Mine is 21st march, only 4weeks and 4 days to go xx
 
IM still waiting to get my 20 week scan appointment through,
did you receive a letter telling you yours? X
 
Is anyone else REALLY itchy? I can not stop itching! Especially my legs omg!
 
I have my anatomy scan on the 27th of March when I'll be nearly 21 weeks. Seems like an age away! I'm so glad I booked a private gender scan for this Saturday. It'll be nice to look forward to the anatomy scan as a chance to see baby, rather than the excitement of finding out. It's a long scan if I recall, so fun to see baby for a long time. Also great to have confirmation (I hope) of gender so soon after gender scan. Whatever they tell me on Saturday, I won't full believe it till they confirm it at the anatomy scan... unless it's as obvious as it was with my son. There was no doubting he was all boy!

Staying team yellow :)
