Happy 8 weeks RedRose lol x

 

[Emzywemzy]

Happy 10 weeks gemgem and happy 8 weeks redrose!

It's bizarre as I never expected to feel anything this soon. I'm still not convinced although I do recognise the feeling. It's hard to explain, it's like a weird fluttery feeling, almost like imagining a butterfly low down in your belly?! And also like a little fizzy feeling low down. It's really hard to explain lol Like I said I didn't feel a thing with Holly til 17 weeks. I used to lie on the sofa really still thinking, why I can't feel anything!!!

 

[RedRose19]

how long til oh would be able to feel the baby kick usually?

 

[Emzywemzy]

DH felt Holly move at 22 weeks, on his birthday! He'd been sitting with his hand on my belly for weeks before that lol

 

[babyd0310]

I felt grace move at 16 weeks on hubbys birthday! He felt her at 22 weeks aswell. My friend who is pregnant with her 2nd felt the baby at 13 weeks, so it may be possible Emzy!! How lovely xx

 

[Emzywemzy]

I keep thinking, maybe it was just wind... but it feels very different to wind lol

 

[gigglesems]

With my first I felt him move at around 14-15 weeks. I had an appointment with the midwife a week later and she told me it was far too early....that is until she palpated my stomach and SHE felt him move externally. She said it was the earliest she had felt a first baby move externally, then apologised for doubting me lol! He was a very strong mover and his position meant I could see actual feet shapes as the pregnancy progressed. I didnt feel DD til 20 weeks - a little odd for the second baby as they say you feel them early but she wasnt much of a mover, so much so I had regular monitoring at the hospital as she could go for a couple of days and not move...scary!!

I thought I had little flutters last night - alas no...was wind bubbles lol! Apparently sometimes we mistake the early bubbles as movements as the increase in the size of the uterus pushes against bowels/intestines etc therefore 'fart bubbles' feel more pronounced. But it is funny that the early feelings feel exactly like wind movement!!!

Sorry to see that so many people are feeling under the weather but also loving how positive you are remaining in the process.

to everyone! xx

 

[Gemini85]

i want to feel movement! i reckon mine will be some time yet! x

 

[Euronova]

Time is frozen!!! Still not even bloody 7 weeks... these are absolutely the longest week of my life!!!!
We have decided to tell immediate family at 8 weeks (cause i can't keep it any longer and we did see the bean at 6 weeks with a heartbeat so hopefully all will be right!)
I am obsessing about it, i just keep having dream that when I finally tell them, they don't give a shit... so so strange! I think being the youngest one in the family, it will be a bit of a shock for my brothers and sister (they all have grown up kids and I guess I am still the baby of the family... I am 28 though!)
Really stressing about it!

 

[jelly tots]

morning everyone,

hope you are feeling better today cricket, lilyfire, emma and emzy and anyone else feeling a bit off today. i seem to be fluctuating between nauseous and normal throughout the day but luckily my peanut butter sandwiches are helping

happy 8 weeks redrose, 10 weeks gemgem and 11 weeks emzy

with regards toboob and abdominal pain, i get it now and again but it depends what im doing. they seem to be easing off at the moment, which naturally has me worried, but the nausea keeps me sane.

eeeekkk!!!!! abi thats fabulous news you defo have a baby i was hoping for a hippo or something exotic though lol aww its a fabulous pic, i cant wait for next week now. 10 sleeps to go!!!!!!

also yey!!! for broodybelle, lovely pic also. im getting very jealous now, am i the only one who hasnt had an earlier scan??? feeling rather left out. although im told patience is a virtue.

ooo its exciting that people are starting to feel movement, i cant wait for that. although at the moment due to my addiction to dr pepper im just feeling gas lol.

hope everyone is having a fabulous day, i just got some excellent news. a lass called me up about a job i applied for last week, the closing date is tomorrow but she called to tell me i was the only one in the redeployment pool to apply for the post, that i will definitely get an interview, the application is one of the best they have read and will give me the job as long as the interview goes well. eeekk!!!! it should be in the next week or so, so with my scan i will hopefully have two things to be happy and smiley about. re: telling them, im not going to do it until way after i have started the post and probably not until the 20 week scan mid jan. by the look of it i should hopefully start the 9th jan, so will only have 5 weeks left here, hurray!!!!!

 

[babyd0310]

Thats great news about the job jelly tots! No you are not the only one who hasn't had a scan, I haven't either and still have to wait just under 4 weeks!!! I have just had my lunch, feel slightly better today but trying to muster up the energy to walk to work!xx

 

[hannpin]

hey Emzy not to early at all, I felt DD before 1st scan at 11 weeks those 1st feelsa are just amazing arnt they. I did doubt it for a few weeks tho as I had not felt DS until 20+ weeks, but u will see they will soon get stronger and moe frequent

Euro I agree Time is going so slowly right now, cant wait for 2nd tri, then things will start to fly by

 

[Lilyfire]

Lily I have sciatica already. I had it last time as part of the SPD from around 24 weeks. I remember as I started a new job at 24 weeks and I thought the pain had come from sitting in an office chair for 8 hours a day, but it stayed with me til the end and it was excruciating! This time, I started with groin pain a week or so ago and thought uh oh, I recognise this and it's now started in the back, down one bum cheek and down one leg just like it was last time! It's not toooo bad at the moment, but at times it does stop me in my tracks sometimes. Last time it hurt to much, so I totally sympathise with you. I had physio for SPD at around 30 weeks and she basically pulled my legs around and said that where my womb had grown it had made my hips misaligned which was causing the pain. The physio didn't help, but it could have been too late on in the pregnancy, so maybe early intervention will help you x

I'm sorry to hear that. I so hope that neither of us suffers too badly with it this time, fingers crossed. I'm off to see a specialist in like 10 mins so HOPEFULLY I won't have to deal with this for another 7 months.

And ohmygod, I CAN'T WAIT to be able to feel the baby move!!!

 

[dt1234565]

Omg all these lovely scans and scan pics - I am well gel!!!

You can totally feel early movement. It's called quickening it's flutters rather than kicks.

My movements seem to have got later with my last pregnancy though which is strange!

I felt Taya kick at 16 weeks, Flynn at 15 weeks and Sonny wasn't till 22 weeks! So there are no rules as we all keep famously saying, all pregnancies are different!!!

 

[Emzywemzy]

Hope the appointment goes well Lily, let me know if they have any tips!!

 

[Emzywemzy]

I'm sure it's baby movements! People often say oh it's just wind, but it feels nothing like wind to me! I remember the feeling from last time, but it was much later as I say, 17 weeks. So exciting!

 

[FirstBean]

No jellytots I havent had an early scan either got at least another 3 weeks to go aswell.

 

[usamom]

I've been playing with my friend, "Google", all morning without successfully finding an answer. When do most Drs schedule scans for us? It has been five years since I had my first and I cannot remember. I'm just now transitioning from a RE to a regular OB- and am "hoping" that I'll get a scan at my appointment which would be 12 weeks for me (and the first time the doctor has seen me this pregnancy). Any thoughts?

 

[Emzywemzy]

Not sure about over there usamom but here we have scans routinely at 12 and 20 weeks. Then if we need extra ones like growth scans they tend to be at 32 and 36 weeks x
