June Bundles of Joy - 2016

[MiraclesHappn]

My anatomy scan is the 14th, so far I haven't seen anyone that's before that? I'm sure there is, though!

I definitely have a bump now! Quite a bit sooner than last time which was expected but kind of hard to accept. So ready to feel regular movement!

On the headaches thing, I get them terribly. Best thing I can suggest is to drink a Mt. Dew, or other pop with caffeine, and if you're able to lie down in a dark room with an ice pack on your forehead right after drinking it helps wonders every time for me! And I get migraines so bad I feel like i'm having a stroke. Still kicks them to the curb

With DD I had anterior placenta and can't remember when exactly I started feeling movements but I think it was around 18 weeks. I just checked my old journal and certainly by 21 weeks I was feeling proper kicks and movements that I could see on the outside too. I am actually quite relieved now I've just read my old journal. I felt this baby lots around 11 & 12 weeks but nothing since then and I have been dreading my appointment tomorrow, feeling less and less hopeful. So hopefully they will find heartbeat tomorrow and MW will put my mind and rest xx

Are the white fillings bad because they have bpa? I was just doing some online reading. I pray I don't have a cavity.

Miracleshappen, my scan is just a few days before yours, but we are in the fence about finding out sex...

White fillings are composite, I believe so safer than silver because of the mercury content.

Tink I was expecting Xander to be exactly the same but he seems to really get it. He talks to my tummy all day and when we make plans he asks if we'll be doing it before the baby comes or will the baby come with us.

He's no help with names though yesterday he decided the baby should be called Xander's Friend Ford. Bless him

So baby is due 27th of June, we've just booked to go to Butlins on 22nd of July dh is trying to convince me a planned section would mean baby would be about 5-6 weeks old. I'm not about to make birth choices based on a holiday though!

My hips have really started hurting at night.
I was originally told I had an anterior placenta but at the last scan was told it's fundal. So I imagine that it's anterior fundal

I have a park Dean holiday booked for the beginning of June! It was booked in August. I'm hoping we can cancel it to be honest. We added cancellation cover to the cost but so far have only paid the deposit. I was really looking forward to it but I don't really fancy it that pregnant lol.

Has anyone seen the dentist while pregnant? I'll be 20 weeks when I see the dentist next month. Should I be concerned about laying on my back during the cleaning?

I don't understand. Is laying on your back during pregnancy a no no ?! I have no clue lol. I do know that I saw a ridiculously useless nhs dentist last week who wouldn't treat my abcess and sent me off with an X-ray booked for February. My face got so bad eventually a nurse practitioner prescribed me some antibiotics.

Anyways I need a root canal etc and I'm going to have that done during pregnancy. So I'm sure a cleaning is perfectly safe =)

I was just coming here to post similar. I had spd with my first and sacroiliac pain with both. Today has been the first day this pregnancy where it's bothered me so much that I got grumpy because we still had to walk back to the car. It's still hurting now and it's got me stressed. Hubby has spinal damage from an inoperable tumour so I really can't afford to have mobility issues too!

We were going to go camping in France with family at the end of August but have decided against it now. I think it's a personal choice, a lot of people wouldn't dream of taking a tiny baby on holiday but I've read people saying that it's actually way easier taking small, portable babies who sleep a lot away than it is bigger older babies/toddlers.

I'm not sure what we're going to do for a holiday, June due date makes it really awkward to book a holiday in summer, I think we'll do a midweek center parcs break in February/March time just so ds will have been on a holiday for the year.

I feel this baby move every day but they are very light and faint movements nothing big yet. I also have an anterior low lying placenta so I wonder if I'm feeling it move above it or to the side of it or something but I'm definitely feeling regular movement

Dory I'm sorry about your hips and it sounds terrible about your OH is he ok? X

 

[SecondNote]

I have my 15 week appointment in about an hour and I'm suddenly nervous.

 

[karlilay]

Were going away end of July. Only to Haven. Baby will hopefully be 6-7-8 weeks old.

I don't feel my baby at all

 

[Becyboo__x]

No movement here yet!

 

[GeralynB]

We're going to Florida for 2 weeks at the end of February. No trips planned after that. With my son we took him away for the first time when he was 6 months to Puerto Rico.

 

[Lil_Pixie]

We could have booked the last week in August but that's coming home on the 2nd of September and I'm not sure when Xander goes back to school. I'm going to ask as soon as he goes back and see if we can change the date - baby might only be 2 weels old at the end of July. Eek!

It's only to butlins at least but 6 weeks old would be way better than 2!

 

[SecondNote]

My scan is set for Januray 18... so excited!

Everything went well at my appointment. I am always so relieved to hear baby's heartbeat.

 

[GeralynB]

Glad your appointment went well secondnote. I always feel nervous right before too.

I just saw there's a September group. Can't believe we're in our second trimester already!

 

[mommyxofxone]

Ohhhh second note we have same scan date

My next ob visit is the 8th

Seriously can't believe how much faster this one is going

Rhi you're not supposed to lay on you back as much later in pregnancy cause of breathing issues I believe. I remember then (and now still) I was freaking out cause I woke up a lot on my back. Asks my mw in first pregnancy and she told me not to worry about it honestly.

Starlight I went to the dentist when I was pregnant with my first I think I was about twenty weeks or so and I remember my gums bleeding REALLY bad. But I didn't have an issue with laying down. They told me to just tell them if I was uncomfortable.


Saw star wars today in an imax theater. SUPER FREAKING LOUD. When it first started and those huge big booms were announcing the movie my stomach received a rather abrupt jerk that was definitely NOT gas! I couldn't believe it. Guess it got startled? Was shocking. Nothing since. But wow.

When do you think you guys will decide if you're going to find out or not? Before your scan or just see how you feel at the time? I think it would be a wonderful surprise I just don't know that I could handle not being properly prepared
