Due Sept 2017

Congrats Dani! Welcome to the second tri!

I'm not feeling anything yet. I'm so curious as to what I'm looking for, though. Everyone says "gas bubbles" or "popcorn" and I just can't wrap my head around what that's supposed to feel like. I guess I'll know when I know? I will say that I feel like my bump grew exponentially this week! It makes me nervous how much of a difference one week can make! haha.

I haven't felt any movement with this one yet as I'm only 13 weeks but with my first, the first feelings I got weren't like little kick or anything. That came later. The first feelings I got were like butterflies or my tummy flipping a wee bit. Like the feeling you get going down a hill fast in a car if you know what I mean? X

I actually have felt something like that, but it was only for like half a second. Is that it? And it only happened once. Maybe twice.

I would say so at least when I describe what I'm feeling to my mom she says she's sure that's the baby I'm feeling
 
I've just started feeling fishy flops, hard enough to make my whole uterus shake. I thought I was imagining it but I had my hand on my belly this morning and felt my hand shake so now I know I'm not crazy lol.
 
Has anyone else had a sore feeling uterus. This morning I had a really bad vomiting episode and my abs and uterus feel tender and sore now. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this and if its normal?
 
Hmm I'm not too sure if I've been feeling little movements from baby, past few days I've felt something, and I'm certain it isn't gas. Can't wait for when I know that it's defiantly baby
 
If anyone else gently pokes their stomach, do they feel flutters for a couple of seconds after?
 
Also I don't know if it's just me..
Although it was only Just over 3 weeks ago since my 12 week scan where I saw baby jumping around like a crazy kid, I kinda feel all paranoid again. One minute I feel like my stomach is still too squishy and not hard enough to be almost 16 weeks, then I'm like oh shouldn't I feel proper movement by now? Then I'm paranoid I'm not big enough at this point. And then the way I position the Doppler on my stomach has had to change the last week as I wasn't finding the heartbeat the way I always have, I now have to point it downwards.. I know baby changes position and things change and move as it grows, but I'm just all paranoid! I have my gender scan Wednesday but it's at a private clinic and they're not doctors so not able to give a general wellbeing check, however I have my 20 week scan in a month. Am I the only one? :(
 
I tend to stress between scans before feeling good movement, too. I think it's pretty normal.
 
Today just gets worse. Now I've got the worst pressure on my bladder which feels just like a UTI except when I go to the loo there's barely a drop there! It's horrible. No burning or stinging when I pee, Just a slight burning pressure feeling low down when I walk etc! Feel like there's no relief unless I sit on the toilet. Luckily I have my 16 week midwife appointment Monday so she will test urine. I'm guessing it might just be the baby laying on my bladder. Agony :nope:
 
I've just noticed that my second ticker is a bit wrong surely I'm more than 06% complete :wacko:
 
Old wives tales and gender- let's play! If you know what you are having I'm particularly interested to hear from you. If you don't know, do you have any guesses and why?

My baby's heart rate is consistent with a boy. The ring/string test says girl.

What are some other ones?
 
I find out Wednesday but I'm so sure it's a girl. Heart rate has always been over 150 and the old wives tale I've heard is anything under 150=boy and anything over 150=girl. I've also had a gut feeling it's a girl from the start :)
 
Wasn't true for me, babybump. My girls were always 140-150 bpm. Only a couple of times they got up to 160 bpm. My DS was always 160-170 bpm. He was a lot more active than his sisters and I think that is why lol.
 
Yeah I think it's a load of cobblers too! I'll see Wednesday I can't wait :happydance:
I had my 16 week midwife appointment today, she said everything's fine :) always a relief. Next one not until 25 weeks.
 
So excited for you babybump!! Will be stalking today to see! :happydance:

I been MIA lately due to nausea and being so freaking tired I just want to sleep. Thankfully I finally started taking ginger vitamin and feel SOOOOOOO much better!!
I went for a scan on 12+5 and our baby is measuring a week ahead of me and a strong heart beat of 164 bpm. We find out on 4/8 what the gender will be :happydance: So 17 days!! I hope everyone is doing well.. My ankles are starting to swell the last few days. I'm glad today is my friday and I'm off 6 days. Think I'll take it easy and keep my feet up this week.

Can someone add me to the Facebook Sept group. I would love to stay in touch with all you ladies as we go! Officially in the 2nd tri Tomorrow!!!!! :happydance:
 
Ya for finding out, I have to wait until 24 April unless I go private
 
The 3D scan photo is the best thing I've ever seen. Can't wait to meet my little boy :happydance: thanks guys
