I thought it was other way round Beccy? the line above as well has always been girl for all my friends except one who had a boy, although it doesn't always show up until later in the pregnancy x

 

[jojo-m]

went to appointment and it was only the weird midwife there, seriously she put the doppler on my pubes to listen to the baby, she has a serious fetish for looking at pubes she must have! x

 

[pinkie77]

Jojo hopefully the other midwife will be there next time!

I've had to change my next m/w appointment as I got an appointment for my anti-D at the same time and figured that would be harder to move! That means I won't get my HIP form signed til I'm 29 weeks though so no more buying stuff til then

aah... just goes to back up the fact that those Old Wives Tales mean b**ger all then

"Linea Nigra

Latin for ‘black line’, a linea nigra may appear on your belly during pregnancy (some women wont get it – doesn’t mean anything!). This is a purple/brownish line which extends down the middle of your belly to your pubic area, about 1cm in width. It’s known that hormones cause the linea nigra pigmentation, but it’s not known why it forms in the vertical line that it does.

The old wives tale is this – if you get a línea nigra and it runs from your pubic area to your belly button only, it’s a girl, and if it goes all the way up from your pubic area to the bottom-most part of you rib cage, then it’s a boy"

Just googled it... probably different depending on which article...

Hi ladies, been a long long time since I posted here. I hope everyone is keeping well. Cant believe I'm 24weeks today, the time is just flying by. Starting to feel the strain now in work though, my job is pretty physical and the bump is getting in the way. Cant wait til maternity leave lol x

 

[blessed]

My linea grows longer all the time... lol.. its halfway up to my boobs now... I noticed that when baby is breech, the linea looks all crooked! LOL

 

[LittleMrs]

I have no linea nigra but apparently if you're lighter skinned you may not get one and I'm like Casper the friendly ghost so I'm not holding my breath. Also, my belly button is still the right way around too. Everyone's bumps look fantastic. Mine isn't very big.

100 days left for me today! Woo hoo. 1 wk 2 days till 3rd tri. Baby kicks everwhere now - I was expecting that I wouldn't ever feel the kicks on the front because my placenta is anterior but I can now and OH felt bump kick for the first time on Saturday - you've never seen a grin so big.

Did have a bit of a worry on Sat when I was picking up around the house and I got pains across my stomach - phoned midwife and she said it was probably just my body telling me not to go around picking stuff off the floor. It's all been fine since - had a lay down and got a little trolley to carry my work around in so I don't have to carry anything anymore. Anyone else had this?

Had a fall today at work on a wet floor As I work in healthcare I had a good chat with a Nurse and she said as long as there is no cramping and/or bleeding that I have nothing to worry about but of course I am still worried. Hope is active tonight so I can feel some reassurance.

Oh no hun I'm sure baby is perfectly fine and all protected in there but I would worry too. I hate walking down stairs now that I'm pregnant - the thought of falling makes my stomach turn!

Try not to worry hun, I had a car crash when I was 24 weeks with my first and he didn't move all day I was so worried, I was about to go down to maternity to be checked when he started wiggling and didn't stop all night. They have plenty of cushioning from your amniotic fluid so unless you start leaking or cramping or baby don't move i'm sure you will both be fine! not a nice experience though i'm sure hun xx
