June Bundles of Joy - 2016

Have you guys made your pregnancies 'public' yet? 15 weeks today and only a handful of people know. Not sure when I'll tell the rest of work....
 
Squig, fab news on the scan. Xx
Tinkerbelle, I hope all went well at your scan. Xx
Starlight, I am holding off telling people as long as possible. Only DH and I know at the moment. We haven't told a soul, not even parents or the children! X

6 days until my scan. Xx
 
Haven't told a soul. Although we are convinced the mil knows after her texting us to out right ask us after she dreamt it.(that I was pregnant).. Weirdo hahah. (I think I mentioned awhile back). I hadn't even seen her for a month when she sent the txt message so god knows where she plucked it from. My husband responded by telling her "oh that's a funny dream" so yeah there is no way she hasn't figured it out lmao. She obviously just took the hint that he didn't want to admit it and hasn't pushed it. I saw her last weekend and she said "you feeling okay you look tired" she sooo knows lol. Gonna make her stew a bit longer haha.
 
We haven't told anyone extra. We told two of my sisters and our parents straight away. I think Carl wants to tell everyone next week after the scan so that's what we'll do. I don't feel ready yet but I don't want to spoil my last pregnancy worrying either.

Squig I'm so glad the scan went well :dance: how long will you have weekly scans for?
 
Nobody knows yet, we're telling MIL on Sunday as she's coming down to see us and I'm telling my mum over the phone, DH will have free rein to tell everyone after the scan/when we reach second tri.
 
Telling my parents tonight. In laws were told after scan. Other than that just a handful of people.
 
We went public with the news yesterday. There was a lot of 'wow' and 'you're mad'.
 
Scan was all good! :cloud9: I forgot how emotional it is seeing the little baby wriggling on screen, and it always seems to take you by surprise when you see it there haha.

My official due date is now 14th June which is 3 days earlier than the original one, so it was nice to be told I'm a teeny bit further along than I thought, I really expected to be put back! I've been comparing the pictures to my son's scans.. I'll post a picture up later to see if anyone has any gender guesses.

I can't believe how quickly we were seen, at my old hospital with my sons scans it was always super busy and each time we were seen about an hour after the set appointment time. We came 15 mins early to this one and were seen straight away. I'd been scanned and had my bloods done and back in the car in under half an hour so we had time to go into town for some coffee and cake which was nice. Weirdly enough I saw a mum I talk to from my son's nursery in the hospital and found out she's pregnant with the exact same due date as me.
 
I'm glad to hear the scan went well tinkerbelle, yay to being put forward!


such a strange coincidence that she's due on the same day, I wonder which will have their baby first now :haha:
 
Tinkerbelle would you like your due date changed on the front page?
 
Glad to hear everyone's ultrasounds have been great!

We went ahead and just announced on Facebook about a week after seeing baby. I was sad to not have it as our secret but so nice to be able to talk about it and have people understand my occasional not feeling good/mood swings :haha:

Does anyone else have trouble when laying on their back/right side yet? I simply cannot do it! And it's so crazy to me that it's already a problem this early!!
 
It's still pretty much a secret with us.. I told my best friend last week but that's it. DH's boss knows as he needed to make sure he could get the time off for the scan, but that's about it. Oh and the woman I bumped into at the hospital, but you don't really have a choice when you're both sat there clutching Bounty packs :haha:

I so want to tell my parents now but my dad is abroad working until next week and we wanted to tell them together! Rest of our family/friends we will tell when we see them Xmas/Boxing Day time, by which point I'll be 15 and a half weeks!
 
Tink I'm so glad everything was perfect at your scan :cloud9:

I had to go to a different place for my midwife appointment at 9 weeks. While I was sat in the waiting room the woman to come out before I went in was one of the mums from Xander's class, then when I came out there was one woman waiting and she was also a mum from Xander's class :dohh:

No trouble sleeping on my back/side/stomach just yet - I'm already sick of getting up twice to pee though!
 
Just a question... can you choose where you have your ultrasound scan?

I've been booked my 20-week scan at the hospital where I gave birth to my son, as this hospital does not do them. However, since I had a traumatic birth with my son going to the hospital has been a massive trigger for anxiety and I'm planning on giving birth at a different one. The thought of going there next month is making me feel really anxious, do you think it would be possible to for me to have it changed to a different hospital? I would rather travel then go back there.
