Due In May :)

[Jary]

Hi ladies! Scan went well, we were good and didn't find out the sex...the sonographer did look about baby's bottom so I was worried I would see what it was and we did see something but not enough to tell. Baby is perfect, my placenta was lying low so she did a TV scan and it measured 2.7cm (less than 2 would have meant a c section)

Sonographer was really good; she explained everything she was looking at and that everything was fine so I felt pretty reassured because she kept me informed.

Will post pics when I'm back home

Baby at 20 weeks 2 days

Just looked at my scan report and it says i have an anterior placenta so that must have been why i havent felt much but this morning baby has been kicking and wriggling about loads! So until they are born I'm calling he/she Wriggles lol

 

[shellgirl]

Such beautiful scan pictures Jary! Wriggles is simply adorable.

 

[Jary]

Thank you! The one where bubs is looking forward kinda looks a bit like terminator with the eye lens tho lol.

 

[Powell130]

Sweet little Wriggles! So glad you weren't able to tell gender!

 

[Stevensmummyx]

Lovely scan pics Jary! And I agree about the terminator lense hehe! Looks cute tho!

And I'd hate people to randomly touch my stomach, I plan that if anyone touches my stomach that makes me feel uncomfortable then I shall do it right back to them see how uncomfortable it makes them feel x

 

[Powell130]

lol good idea. ugh my friends boyfriend touched my belly a few weeks ago and just started at me all creepy like, very uncomfortable lol

Hi everyone sorry just caught up on about 4 pages! Hard to post as at in laws for Xmas still.
Huge congratulations on all the gender reveals and to Jary for team yellow! Yay!

I will watch the vid when I'm alone Anna - looking forward to it!

Cgav - great name choice but then I'm biased as I have an Annabelle, people always say what a lovely name she has

Congrats Jary! Dylan looks like terminator too.

 

[Jary]

Hehe, lets hope they don't act like terminators when they come out!

Had a bit movement this morning but think Wriggles will probably have a sleepy day today after all that jumping about yesterday. Had to lie on my side soon after getting into bed because the kicks felt weird! Didn't stop wriggles moving about tho.

Urgh back at work today and I am so so tired! Slept well but don't feel it! Anyone else not feeling the 2nd tri energy? I feel how I was pre pregnancy but with a bit more added tiredness!

 

[Sass827]

I get wiped out from just walking for 30 minutes or so. It's sad.

 

[Powell130]

Are we allowed to use Vicks Vapor Rub? I'm miserable!!

 

[Jary]

I can't see why not. It's not like a potent drug or anything.

 

[mathgenius33]

Sass, I know what you mean. I'm getting winded a lot quicker these days too. I'm not pushing myself at all in swimming these days, and I'm way slower now because if I try too hard I get too tired. I'm guessing after our babies are here we'll be back to normal on the exercise thing and being in top shape should come back quickly (like by 6 months or so at the most).

I don't know about Vicks vapor rub. I know I was told not to suck on Halls cough drops because they have alcohol. I would think just breathing something like that should be fine, but maybe google it to be sure, or call your doctor maybe.

 

[pinktiara]

yup vicks is fine I was deathly sick for two weeks still getting over it and couldn't take anything it was terrible I also had halls cough drops which were fine dr said that was about it

 

[Jary]

I went round the shops the other day and after an hour I felt like I'd been out the whole day. Walking up stairs is also a challenge so what I'll be like when I've got a big bump I do not know. Might have to crawl xD

 

[Jary]

This may be TMI but anyone else getting milk leakage?? I've heard at this point you can start to leak colostrum, but at the mo it's just from my left boob.

Ahh the sexiness of pregnancy! Bubs has been giving me some cute little nudges and kicks this morning. Think wriggles wants me out of bed to get food

 

[Sass827]

Ive heard of many girls leaking around this time. It's totally normal. I'm not leaking yet but my nips have doubled in size. Do you think they will go back to normal after?
Afm, I'm so upset. my parents live 7 hours away. DH gets 1 week paternity leave, so my moms plan was to come when he went back to work and stay about 8 days to help me out. We've talked about it for months. Now, all of a sudden, my mom, dad and brother demand to be called once labor starts, stay both hospital days and the day we bring Dylan home. I said it's too much. I don't want any visitors the day of, but if they want to come the day after for a visit, that is fine. But not the day we bring her home. That's a special day for the three of us. now they are so Mad they say they aren't coming at all, they are canceling our baby shower, and they want their Christmas gifts back. Wtf?! Aren't I supposed go be the emotional one right now? Am I being a jerk? They said I'm a selfish person to keep them from their granddaughter, but I said, what does it matter if it's the day after? she'll be one day old. They say it ruins everything. Ughhh... I'm just at a loss...

 

[Jary]

Sass that sounds awful! You are totally right in wanting some quiet time when you bring bubs home, you all need that and you're going to be so tired too.

Can't believe they've asked for Xmas gifts back! Sounds like they are being really spiteful. Like a child that can't get it's own way! Like you said it's for one day so you get settled at home and have a moment to rest up before all the busy visiting starts.

Don't feel bad, you're not the one to blame

 

[Sass827]

Thanks Jary! You make me feel so much better. I'm really stressing this right now.
