I've never had a gender scan but the place I've been to this time and had two private reassurance scans with have been amazing and their scan pics amazing quality compared to the nhs one I got. I'll be booking a 4d one for around 28-29 week too

Where are you yo yo?

I don't even know what to look for when feeling for my uterus .... So, I've not even felt where mine is sister rose.

I am in Cardiff.

Yes, they said to me 28-29 weeks is the best time for a 4D scan! I'm getting one done then.

Welcome to our new members!

Sorry to all those still feeling so sick hope it improves for you all!

We booked our private 4D scan for our gender determination for 19 weeks. When I called to schedule the woman told me it's better to wait till later in the pregnancy but when I told her it was twins she took it back and said 19-20 weeks would be perfect timing for a twin pregnancy.

Can't wait to see my babes and find out genders!

Got put 4 days ahead so due date is now 31st October!!!

I lost a baby that was due on 4th October and then got pregnant again immediately. So it feels nice to be in October babies again . Still mostly be posting on November babies mind hehe.

 

[MamaMac123]

So I'm curious...kind of personal I guess but have heard right around now you may start to notice nipples darkening and the linea nigra starting to appear. Is that happening for anyone? So far I got nothing! Haha

Someone was mentioning the strange hard lumps that come and go though and I have noticed that. The other night I had two up high just below my breasted and two down lower around belly button area. Think they're all too high to be babies, DH and I figured its probably just all my insides getting pushed up and moved around in there. So weird though!

Hey mamamac. I had the lumps, lol. I talked to my OB at my appointment this morning.. I showed where they were, right at the top of my uterus (which she confirmed). And she said that's also where my intestines are so it was probably poop! haha.. I had my poor hubby putting his hand there when it happened again and I had to tell him today I had him touching my old food. He was laughing.

As far as the linea negra, none here yet. Darkening nipples, hard to tell.. I guess mine are just a little darker pink, but no pigmentation around.

I haven't got any darkening of nipples etc, but my midwife did point out this morning that I have a few long dark hairs in the same position as the linea nigra would be. Urgh! She's forbidden me from removing them, as she says they will disappear once baby comes and if I remove them they may just keep growing back. But, eww!

All else was ok at the midwife this morning, baby's hb sounds good. I don't have a bpm figure, but on my own doppler it's usually around 150 so wasn't concerned that she didn't tell me what it was. She said baby sounds happy though

Also got a cuddle with my friend's 3-day-old daughter today She is gorgeous. She fell asleep for me! I can't believe I'll have one of those in 5 months

 

[SisterRose]

Mrs_Eleflump - I never get a line nigra, I'm very fair skinned but I always get dark hairs down under my belly button during pregnancy they do disappear afterwards though!
I also some times get tiny hairs on my chin during pregnancy, but seems to mostly be in the first and later third trimester! must be when hormones are raging

 

[Jcliff]

The line doesn't really show until belly pretty stretched out, most likely third tri!

Welcome to all the new mommies! Can't wait to find out what everyone is having!! Love seeing all your scan pics, ladies!!

AFM: 15 weeks yesterday, starting to get a proper bump now! I'll take a pic later. Been so exhausted lately, slight headaches and still getting a bit nauseous. Finding it hard to eat my breakfast in the mornings, but no vomiting so guess I should be happy with that! Hope all is well with you ladies!

Just found out I won't be able to do my gender party until May 10 now. We were going to do it May 3 but my mom is in the hospital and won't be getting out until May 6. So now I have to wait another week to find out the gender.

 

[ljo1984]

I've never had a line on my stomach either.

 

[La Mere]

I had a faint line on my tummy with both of mine.

Sorry your mom is in the hospital and that you have to wait to find out the gender, Geralyn.

 

[GeralynB]

Yea she had knee replacement surgery. It will be hard to wait but I want her to be there so we will move the date of the party.

 

[jmandrews]

Wow our Bumpkins group is big now! October seems to be the month to have a baby

Yay I am so proud of the October bumpkins 2014 group

Great scan pic and seems like everyone is doing well.
I am feeling good and last got sick Easter night. Anxious for next week when I meet with the high risk doctor again and then the following week will get my 18 weeks scan.

One question for you ladies, I have this horrible pain in my left buttocks. I think maybe it is because I have been sleeping on that side? Anyone have before and know of good ways to help the pain? OUCH!

Sorry to hear she is in hospital.

Will be something nice to enjoy when you do get to do it
