July Firecrackers 2018

Near the end of last week, I thought I felt flutters but I brushed it off as being far too early. Maybe it is just gas, I told myself. When I used my doppler, I could hear the swooshing of the baby moving around and caught the hb for a good few seconds, long enough to get a reading of 150 bpm. Today I've felt more flutters and it felt like my entire uterus shook a few times. Call me crazy but I swear I'm feeling something!

I could feel a rolling/tugging feeling below my belly button and this evening I felt what was like popcorn popping lol

Are you ladies sharing your 12 week scans here?

I’ve noticed my jeans are getting a little tighter already lol

This is mine Unique. Baby was jumping around far too much for a good side on picture. So baby is kinda turned away in this one...you can see the spine.

Aww lovely

My scan is on Tuesday. Ill be 13+1 though because of Christmas not allowing me to be fit in before the New Year.

Everything is so tight on me too. Im feeling so nauseous still. I definitely have to be having a girl! This is the exact pregnancy I had with DD.

I won a personal training session back in October from my gym and I used it today. I have been going to the gym every day, but not pushing myself as hard as I did today..and omg I feel so sick now!!

 

[Alligator]

Buffy good for you for going! I still haven’t felt up to it but I think, soon. Within a week or two, as nausea and fatigue start to lift!

My jeans have been tight for ages! I bought some cute maternity clothes today and they made me feel so much better about my body. It’s hard adjusting to a growing body!

I swear I’ve felt the popcorn popping sensation in my belly earlier today but I passed it off as gas... we shall see!

I totally have been feeling bubs move. Mostly little weird bubbles. I know the difference with gas. I feel as though it’s only when I’m sitting still in my chair at work and leaning slightly forward. I guess when bubs it’s slightly squished
I saw bubs going crazy on the screen and when she was pushing down I could feel the movements.

 

[Livvy]

Wow that’s early to be feeling movements starry especially as it’s your first! Awesome!

Our entire family is sick with a terrible cold. I hate winter so much. We spend so much of it sick. Bring back swimming weather!! My round ligaments hurt so much from coughing.

My cervix is extremely low. I’m kinda worried about a prolapse or something. Shouldn’t it be high by now?

 

[Buffyx]

With my last two pregnancies I had an anterior placenta so didnt feel much til a bit later on. I definitely havent felt anything yet this time either.

3 sleeps til scan. Eek.

 

[Heather.1987]

I dont feel anything until about 20 weeks. Babe is so small still i dont expect to feel anything yet. I do love hearing babe everyday though!

 

[MissEyre]

I haven't felt the baby yet. While I can't remember exactly when I started feeling my daughter last time, I think it was around 15 weeks.

I've been savoring these last few weeks (ideally months) of stomach sleeping. It's one the things that I miss most when I'm pregnant.

 

[Alligator]

You’re so right I’m a stomach sleeper and I can already feel a bit of a difference on my belly. I think I need to get a pregnancy pillow soon!

Found babe on Doppler this morning in about a minute... best sound ever.

Hiya ladies!
Things are well on my end. We have another scan January 12th because there was a "collection" in my uterus of about an inch and they want to keep an eye on it. No clue what it is... not nervous really as dr wasnt.

We havent made our announcement yet... as its my first with my current partner, we thought it might be funny to do one of his belly and a sign something along the lines of "bout time he's expecting" or something.

 

[lilmisscaviar]

The soonest I've ever felt movement before was 13 weeks and that was with DS1 so it surprised me that I'm feeling it so early this time. I don't know what kind of placenta I have this time yet. Probably won't until my 20 week scan. DH joked about it being twins but considering I had an ultrasound at 6 weeks that showed only 1 sac I consider it highly unlikely that a second sac would suddenly pop up LOL.

 

[Buffyx]

Whats funny is that I used to be a stomach sleeper too! Then after 2 pregnancies close together, I changed to a side sleeper. I feel weird on my tummy now!

Krockwell - thats great! And funny idea for an announcement

Lilmiss - you could totally still be having twins. Theyd need to be identical though since you only have one sac. Definitely possible that one twin could have been hiding behind the other at this early stage

Oh don't say that this scares me. With 4 kids between us and only a 10 month old twins would be so very very hard. I have had 2 scans 5w6d olus 8w6d and still only 1 heartbeat..

 

[Livvy]

I'm a stomach sleeper too! I'm going to miss it.

 

[Alligator]

Anyone else suffering through extreme cold! It’s -30 c here and snowing like crazy! Hibernating today, for sure.

I’m also starting not to sleep well which is annoying as I always feel tired, just not at bed time or 3-4am when I wake up to pee!

I think the nausea is lifting... I still have to be careful to not let myself get hungry but I barely feel nauseous between eating!!

 

[StarryEyed88]

I too sleep on my stomach..still feels ok now but I’ll be bummed when I can’t anymore.

Alli - it’s going to be 33 here today with storms. I really feel for you .. I cannot even begin to imagine what -30 feels like. I don’t think I want too
Totally understand the tiredness. I wake up early to go to the bathroom and by 4-4.30 the sun is already up so I can’t get back too sleep. It’s quite unfair. Hubby could sleep through anything. So frustrating haha

 

[Buffyx]

Glong - if you have had 2 scans im sure you are fine

Im 13w today and although im still nauseous, it is sooooooo much more bearable!! Now if this hunger would just subside

 

[Heather.1987]

Were super cold here too. -12 F...so close to your -30 C. It has been snowing on and off the past week. Im in the middle of USA in Nebraska.

 

[eppgirl]

With my twins we only saw one baby at my ultrasound at 8 weeks 5 days and at 12 weeks two babies! It also depends on the type of ultrasound that you have, abdominal u/s early have been notorious for missing a second baby, whereas if it was transvaginal and only seen one baby it's 99% positive that there's only one baby especially at 8 weeks +.

 

[TexMel]

We are getting into freezing temps today with chance of some precipitation. I'm really hoping nothing crazy happens, because we have to head back home (4 hour drive) tomorrow, as we both have to work on the 2nd.
