What a lovely scan bicornbump mine is in the morning am so nervous

 

[PrincessTaz]

Bicornbump aww what a cute picture!

Miranda I really hope your hubby makes it to the scan with you and I'll look forward to hearing about your reveal. My bump is definitely bigger than it was with my son at this point but feels a lot more wobbly lol.

Elliecain it is definitely baby. I was in denial too convincing myself it probably wasn't baby but yours deffo sounds like it is. Those first movements are lovely

Mel I was so nervous too, don't expect much sleep tonight if your like me lol. What time is your scan? Hope it's not late in the day x

 

[bicornbump]

Thank you everyone

Good luck Mel! When I told the ultrasound tech I was nervous, she said "that's because you're normal." I think most people are nervous, but I'm sure everything will be just fine! Let us know how everything goes!

Well my scan is on the 4th of Nov. So yea i think the date is special all around the world

Congrats for the scans and for team pink finally an othe princess in the group hahaha

I was so scared the past 3 days i am on bed rest at the moment i had small contractions and since its the first i did not know what that was ... had an ultrasound baby was fine cervix is still nice and closed but doc said i have to take it easy for 4 days no work no nothing just sleep and relax no stress. The contractions are due to a fibroid i have in the cervix so as long as we keep it in check all will be fine, she started me on progesterone as extra.

And i did some blood work to see why i have so much iching we though it was my liver but its not!!! So that is a happy thought So i need a dermatologist for it now to give me a cream or something to cool the iching

Ps srr for the typos as i use my mob for it and technology phones drive me crazy

 

[broodymrs]

Sorry arrow, that sounds scary! Make sure you do take it easy

 

[PrincessTaz]

Arrow wow you've had a lot to contend with this week, so glad all is okay though

Have any March mommas started having trouble sleeping? I have horrible insomnia and it's almost 6am and my abdomen feels so tight and compressed. Baby has been kicking like crazy which makes it hard to rest

 

[bicornbump]

...and I'm teammmm blue!
Now to decide on a name

I've just started having trouble sleeping this week! Its not because of the baby moving though (baby seems to be more active during the day). I just wake up between 3-4am and can't fall back to sleep. It's terrible.

 

[mel102]

That must of been scary arrow make sure and have plenty of rest

My scan was fantastic baby was perfect and we found out we are team pink

I was having trouble sleeping and then I started taking hydroxyzine at night, which is just a strong antihistamine that is safe in pregnancy, but has to be prescribed by doctor. Now, I sleep through the night. I was a zombie for a few weeks though. I do also have things to help keep me go back to sleep if I wake up. In my bathroom is a night light, so if I wake up to use the restroom, then the light doesn't wake me up, and I don't look on my phone for the time.

Congratulations on 2 little pinks and 1 blue! Maybe the tide has turned to girls in this thread? I will find out in 3.5 days, can't wait!!!

Sorry about your contractions Arrow, how scary.

I've had insomnia on and off throughout my pregnancy but it seems a bit better at the moment. I have a week off work now (half term), so I'm hoping to get a lot of sleeping done!

 

[Mattsgirl]

So jealous of all the scans!! I still have over 2 weeks to wait!! Novemeber. 8th can't get here fast enough!!

Yes!! I haven't had a good nights sleep in weeks. It is sooo frustrating! I'm gonna talk tobmy doctor at my next appointment.

The thing that got me through first tri and beyond was sleep so I am really hoping that I stay sleeping well. I love my sleep! Luckily my toddler takes after mummy and sleeps really well, 12/13 hrs at night, although she does end up in my bed most of the time which is fine since I'm single and we both sleep fine. Kinda wondering how a newborn will influence this set up! I'm going to try one of those next to me cribs and then hopefully breastfeed in my bed and then return to the cot. I don't want to turf my girl out of mummies bed since it will already be a time of change for her.

Congrats on the scans ladies. I have my 20 week scan on 3rd Nov. I actually can't believe how quickly it has gone between the scans.
I'm still not 100% and still very tired and get nausea at points in the day, food aversions going strong too (and drink aversions which is worse). By this point with my daughter I'm sure I was much better.

 

[broodymrs]

Congrats Mel and bicorn. I've had insomnia pretty much since I got my bfp. I wake up between 3-4 too and can't get back to sleep. That combined with dh's snoring, ds's crappy sleep and I'm at the end of my tether. I'm like a zombie most days

I'm trying to create a banner for us to put in our sigs but I'm struggling with the Munchkins concept, as I find those characters rather scary and not at all cute!
I could do something bland just with our name, or include an image.

Any suggestions?

This is my first, very poor attempt in the 2 possible sizes I can do...

Those banners are great Ellie 😀

No insomnia here...unless my toddler waking me up all night counts!

6 days until my anatomy scan (we already know we're team blue), I always feel a bit anxious before this one.

 

[broodymrs]

I didn't even know what a munchkin was! Had to google it and I'm still not sure but I did find this image which I thought was quite nice. We could do something like that? Or the ones you've already done are good too. You're more creative than me!
