March Munchkins 2017 - calling all March Mummy's to be:)

[Oxygen7880]

Yippee finally had my 12 week scan! I was worried that I couldn't find the heartbeat with my Doppler but the baby was fine and bouncing around. Got my harmony test and scan on wed.
Anyone got any idea with nub theory (I have no clue).

 

[Livvy]

Still hopping so exciting you finally get your little one!! Welcome!

Oxygen YAY!! Is it awesome to see them?! So glad everything is well!

Welcome to all the new ladies :wave:

Taz - Sorry you are feeling rough, big hugs and hope you feel better soon my lovely

Sarah - I'm the same... Some days I have a cute little bump and others I look like I have eaten all the pies!

Oxygen - look at that gorgeous scan! I reckon boy as the nub is slightly tilted up Try asking in the gender predictions page, the girls there are really helpful

Miranda - My boobs are also really hurting.. Every so often I get a sharp shooting pain and it really hurts

AFM - Taz can you update my due date to the 10th March

I am feeling a lot better now to the point where I don't feel pregnant which is great but also a worry! I am using my doppler everyday at the moment just to reassure me. I really struggled in the third trimester with both my boys so am going to enjoy feeling good whilst it lasts!

Anybody feeling movement yet? My placenta is anterior so not felt anything yet

 

[Livvy]

Kate I'm the same regarding looking like I ate too much! Haha. Food baby for the win. I also really struggled in the third trimester last time, I had so much pelvic pain. My hip is already starting to bother me this time. :/ on the up side, I have been feeling the baby move! It's very reassuring. I had an anterior placenta last time and didn't start really feeling him till 20 weeks, so enjoying this.

 

[elliecain]

Great scan oxygen. I say girl, as the nub is parallel with the spine.

 

[kmpreston]

Had horrendous nausea and then vomiting all day today. Happy 12 weeks to me

 

[mel102]

Welcome to all the new ladies

Oxygen great scan pic i have no idea how the skull and nub theory works sorry

Kmpreston hopefully you will start to feel better soon

 

[kmpreston]

I hope so. It must be a hormone surge. I've only had two other instances of Actually being sick. Both at 7 weeks. And my nausea has been going by lunch time since then. Found baby's heartbeat on the Doppler tonight and it's super loud so I'm well happy now!

 

[Livvy]

kmpreston I've been feeling awful the whole 12th week. Hope that's not the case for you! Today I finally feel a bit better. My app told me baby grows a whole inch this week so I'm guessing that's why I've been feeing crap. From 2 inches to 3 is a really big change!

 

[mirandaprice]

There's a surge of hormones at the end of 1st tri, beginning 2nd tri...some ladies tend to be sensitive to them. I was that way with my son...nauseous all first tri, small break from it around 11 weeks, then back again until 18 weeks.

Fxd it goes away kmpreston!

I felt a bit off this morning, but mostly just sooo tired

 

[elliecain]

I felt shattered all weekend, at 13+2 to 13+3. That makes sense now, that Bee was having a growth spurt. I could have slept for 48 hours. I've been going to bed at 9.30 and it's helped a lot (I get up at 6 for work).

 

[kmpreston]

Anyone else experiencing an excessive amount of CM?

 

[Oxygen7880]

Kmpreston: yeah I am. Delightful isn't it. I've had it all through first tri but more lately.

That makes sence about the surge at the end of first tri. I was starting to feel a 'bit' better but his week I'm flat on my ass again. Getting totally fed up of not being able to do anything. Getting my little Girl up, ready for nursery and then walking her there and back, just takes all i have right now. I felt awful this morning. She was crying for me to pick her up and carry her most of the way to nursery today. She's only slight but I just don't have the strength to carry her far (esp when it's so warm).
Hate it when she's upset before nursery. I'm guessing I will get more of the same when I pick her up. I have loads I want to do but I'm literally incapable! I'm so sick of laying on this very sofa! Hopefully the next couple of weeks will make all the diff for us all.

Most of the gender guesses have been I will be soooo happy to have another girl so i hope they are right.

 

[kmpreston]

I'm back at work after the summer holidays and it's just flooring me. I manage one or two lessons and then just need to sleep which sadly isn't an option

 

[mirandaprice]

I don't remember being this tireday with my son, only thing I can think of is I must if taken more naps while pregnant with him

This must be a massive growth spurt for the amount of energy that's being drained from me.

Kmpreston - I've been having a lot of cm too, enough so that sometimes it feels like I wet myself

 

[broodymrs]

Yep having lots of cm. I've had swabs done as it smells a bit weird too 😜

I really struggle picking my little boy up. He is a chunker but I still feel so bad. I was using a toddler sling before having a bump so I need to look into how to use the sling with a bump as that will help loads

 

[Livvy]

Broodymrs I really miss front carrying my little in his wrap. He misses it too I think. A stroller just doesn't cut it. Need to figure out how to hip or back carry.

 

[sewing_mama]

I'm still feeling nauseous too, it improved a lot but hasn't gone completely. Just been on a camping trip that involved a lot of car journeys and I got so travel sick that I actually vomited for the first time in years. I can't help thinking back to my first pregnancy, I'm sure I felt better by now!
