Beach Bumps - July Rainbows

Aw brilliant jess we can countdown together!! I've been a bit of Doppler fiend this week- despite all the movement. Have used it about 3-4 times.. Usually only use it once a week!! Been feeling a bit paranoid this week think it's just the run up to the scan. Xxx
 
That's understandable Dolly! Not long until you see your gorgeous bub again!

I guess I won't feel many kicks now due to having anterior placenta... Boo ra!

Thanks flapjack I guess you're right. And hey I've managed to get through the 5-6 weeks since my 12 week scan pretty much worry free so I guess I've done not too bad lol. Just gonna try keep myself busy so I'm not stressing about it xxx
 
It's easier said than done though. I have days were I'm more panicky and think 'worse case' scenarios through my mind. Sometimes you need to air it out or it just builds up. We're here if you ever need to vent!

I've been the same this week dolly! I've used my doppler so much! I suspect that I have an anterior placenta as I don't feel much movement but can hear bubs moving around like crazy on the doppler!

I think it's a mixture of that and it's been so long since I've seen baby!

Can't wait for Thursday but also very nervous!! Xx
 
Ooooh I need an anterior placenta buddy (if such a thing exists)! I can't remember if anyone else on here has one.

I couldn't sleep Saturday night or last night :cry: I just lie in bed with my eyes closed and sometimes nod off, but then wake myself again not long after. Something is deffo going on with my uterus and stretching - i wonder if that's what's keeping my awake? I'm exhausted, but I've had quite a few preggo days off sick and don't want my work to think I'm taking the mickey? I know they can't discriminate against pregnancy related sickness, but still. Better to take one day than force myself in, get rundown and have to take the whole week off?

Love to you all xxx
 
Well I haven't been told I have one but I only ever feel baby very low down or far over to the left. When I listen in if baby is on the right I don't feel anything at all :shrug:

I would and rest all day! Xx
 
What do you do FJ? Can you work from home?

AFM, something really embarrassing happened last night. I was sat on the loo and did a massive trump which relieved so much pressure it made my stomach muscles seize up and I had to rub my bump furiously all the while going "oh oh, ow ow" and then Chris woke up and came in to see what it is and I had to explain it was a painful fart lol :blush:
 
Unfortunately I can't work from home - I'm a librarian so must be where the books are!

Oooooohhhhh dear GIY! My trumps have been so bad recently! It's so embarrassing! Poor you - I suppose this is just the start of us losing our dignity, after childbirth it'll all be gone!

Hi ladies, I just got back from my gender scan and its a GIRL, I was sure it was, such a weird feeling now as I keep saying her, takes awhile to get used to. Everything looks good, have my twenty week scan in three weeks so then thats it, can sit back and try to enjoy this pregnancy. I have had no movement yet and am trying not to worry but I can hear her moving around on the doppler so hopefully in the next few weeks I will feel her, hope everyone else is ok xx:happydance:
 
Yay welcome to team pink Kelly :D so happy for you. If she was well and moving on the scan then I'm sure all is fine. So happy for you! X
 
Congrats Kelly!! As for movement I only started to feel my bub by feeling for her, and now I know what to feel I feel him all the time with or without hands :-) I just lay flat in bed with hands on my uterus area-thumb to thumb kinda...then just lay there...by the time 30 mins had passed I'd felt quite a few and for me they felt like little taps or pops..like wind but it doesn't travel ;-)

Beautiful...are you team yellow? Sorry if you've already said! Only your profile pic scan looks similar to mine from Saturday (18weeks) and im team yellow...although I think it's a boy!! Apparently sloping foreheads are boys and smaller rounder ones are girls...who knows :-)

And Monroe-cervix measured 3.4cm so all good :-)
 
Just realised I called my baby a her at first...I always refer to bubs as a he!! Maybe it's a sign ;-)
 
Flapjack, one of my twins is anterior (as was my daughter) and one is posterior. I do feel the one with the posterior placenta pretty much all the time, but can feel the other one from time to time.
 
Yay Amjon! I still don't think I've had a proper thump - still just flutters and vibrations. Oh well, I shall be patient!

My baby was quiet this morning and I was concerned so quickly drunk a glass of ice water and she threw such a tantrum at being woken up by the cold. Threw herself around and punched and kicked like crazy. It was so funny. I love my funny little baby <3
 
I'm so jealous! You're a mean mummy giving baby an ice bath! Poor baby :haha:
