July Firecrackers 2018

[Buffyx]

You guys are making me feel so disorganised We bought a bassinet..but other than that nothing! We do already have a pram from the previous babies.

But baby isnt going to have it's own room anyway. We have started setting up a little corner in our bedroom. We have cleared out the dresser in our room so we can put babys things in there. One week til we find out. Then I can start being a little more organised!!

 

[Livvy]

Hello everyone hope it’s ok for me to join this group! I am due baby #4 on 18 July. This was my 12 week scan little baby was upside down, is a nub clear on my picture was hoping to guess gender but I can’t see nub!

Welcome


Is anyone else not feeling baby move a lot? I probably feel kicks and movement once or twice a week

 

[JLLM]

Thanks everyone! I have my 20 week scan on 28th February and so far have only announced to immediate family looking forward to not having to hide my growing bump! I have only bought some bottles and the perfect prep, I was looking at the sleepyhead pod has anyone ever used one?

How exciting Livvy are you finding out gender?

I feel baby movement most days especially at night when I have time to sit down and pay attention to them! the kicks felt quite strong yesterday!

I’m the opposite. I started feeling baby quite early this time (with DD1 I felt nothing until about 26 weeks) but this baby does not stop! Even throughout the day when I’m at work I’m feeling jabs and rolls it’s lovely but I’m also nervous about how active this child is going to be!

I’m feeling bubs kick and move a lot. I have a posterior placenta though so that helps DH is bummed he still can’t feel him yet.

 

[Alligator]

I have an anterior placenta and I feel movement every now and then. I've felt what I am sure are kicks maybe twice, but I often feel 'movement' which I think is baby rolling around...it feels like my stomach/pelvis totally drops out.

 

[UniqueBeauty]

If I had an anterior placenta would the woman who did my 12 week scan of said something? In my notes it just said normal placenta

 

[Alligator]

Mine said in the notes section on my ultrasound printout. It said 'predominantly anterior' placenta. Not sure what 'normal' means..hmm. I mean presumably it's good but not sure what it means for placement!

 

[JLLM]

In my area our maternity notes are all online and you download an app, so annoying as you can’t see ultrasound reports!

 

[UniqueBeauty]

Odd. That’s what I thought, my scan lasted literally all of 5 minutes. Perhaps I’ll know more at the 20 week scan next week!

 

[StarryEyed88]

I paid to find out the gender and the lady mentioned it to me. She just said it allows for good 3D pictures so probably why she mentioned it

 

[Buffyx]

I was told because I asked about the placenta. Otherwise no one mentioned it to me.
My last 2 pregnancies were anterior placentas, but this one is posterior. I feel movements pretty regularly. I still go a long time in between feeling anything though. I cant wait til my scan on Tuesday.

 

[TexMel]

On our way to our gender scan now!!! I'm getting nervous!!

 

[Alligator]

Tex!! So exciting. Keep us posted

 

[lilmisscaviar]

Posterior placenta here too. Feeling kicks, rolls, punches, etc regularly now. They also told me at my scan that baby was on the larger side so maybe that's why I'm feeling so much movement. In my experience (although I know this doesn't apply to everyone) my girls both had anterior placentas - and thus I felt movement a lot later - and my boys always had posterior. I thought that was weird.

Good luck, Texmel!

 

[Buffyx]

I've had a boy and a girl and both anterior. Just coincidence for you Lilmiss!

Exciting!!




Today led in my side on the bed I had a huge (what I can describe) as a kick and swipe right on my side, you could see the binge where it cane up it made me shout, it actually hurt! The kids shot round and wondered what the hell had happened at least I’m starting to feel the lazy one!

 

[StarryEyed88]

Can’t wait to hear the outcome Tex
