October bumpkins 2019

Oh my goodness hon u must of been so scared you poor thing. I'm so happy that every thing is ok and baby is fine thank God.

Do you know what the worst thing about all of it was? Is that I wasn’t scared. I’ve been through so many miscarriages I’m sort of just numb to it now... which is just so sad. But I was relieved to see the baby :) xx
 
Agree about looking for heartbeat! First don’t worry if you don’t find it right away! It takes some time and practice to find it!

I also agree start center of belly (in line with belly button) I have been finding it right at the “hair line” and then slightly to the right. You have to move super slow! Trying not to move the probe much at all. Like pp said rotate/angle the probe in a circular motion vs moving it or holding straight up and down. I always have to angle underneath public bone. Baby is super small and could be hiding and if placenta is super loud or over baby the baby’s heartbeat will sound super soft and hard to actually hear so make sure you’re in complete silence and not getting bounced around by anyone!! Also laying flat with a pillow under bottom may help! Good luck!
 
Hi ladies

I'm 10 weeks tomorrow and I've started having stretchy CM like when I'm ovulating. Is anybody else getting this? I did read somewhere that the mucus plug is similar to stretchy CM so I've got myself paranoid!
 
Yeah ladystardust that’s super common. I have that throughout pregnancy, it’s just protecting baby from bacteria. Unless there’s an enormous glob of it streaked with blood (I lost my mucus plug when my water broke w my son - trust me you will KNOW it’s your plug :haha: ) then it’s totally normal!

I'm only 8 weeks and feeling bigger too, pants are getting so uncomfortable I've been thinking I need to go buy maternity pants next weekend. I think it's mostly still bloat but even when I wake it never goes down anymore either.
 
Great bump updates Brittany and Nolimit!

10 weeks today and thankfully the nausea seems to be subsiding now. Still having a few waves but nothing like the last few weeks where I have suffered 24/7! Starting to feel a bit brighter. Also feel like I am starting to show a bit but at this stage I don't know how much of it is bloat.

I read that my baby is now the size of a fig and will double in size over the next 3 weeks! Really can't wait for my 12 week scan now. I'm getting impatient!

My sister showed me this other baby forum that she looks at sometimes and all the mothers/pregnant ladies are horrible to each other!! They just all slag each other off, it's shocking! Kind of entertaining too haha.. but it made me think that I'm lucky to have found this website as everyone I have spoken to has been nothing but friendly and supportive :)

Congrats on 10 weeks!!! I have not found the kind of ladies here on other forums or sites. Like you said, the rest are all rude and tear each other down. Not a positive environment. BnB is different. :)
 
Hi ladies.. wow this thread is so busy..

I missed like 6 pages.. I have updated the front page.. Let me know if I am missing anyone..

Afm slowly starting to get my energry back :dance:

Only getting sick 2-3 times which is super for me.. I'm Irish so I was happy to be able to enjoy the parade on paddy's day as I wasn't sick in the afternoon.. would have loving to have a drink but it will be worth it in a couple of months.. lol I'm not even a big drinker but I would love a vodka and coke lol..

I'm excited for my scan next Friday (29th) the last 2 days im extremely uncomfortable is anyone else like that? I know it's not possible but I feel the baby is leaning on my ribs so I can't get comfortable anywhere.. stretching pains happening also.. got scared for abit but they are nothing like period pain more uncomfortable and don't last long.

I'm thinking about getting a Doppler!! What brand do use have or can you recommend one? I had one on dd1 but it was only a cheap one and I didn't use it till nearly 20 weeks.

Defo think I can start to feel flutters not sure if it is too soon.. I was about 13 weeks on dd2
 
Just seen there is a November due date thread.. I don't know why it made me so excited to know our babies will be here before we know it
 
Hi lovely ladies I'm 10 weeks pregnant yay. \\:D/
Cant believe it's so close to 2nd tri now I'm so excited. Still a little nervous not gonna lie because you know things can still happen but I know at 10 weeks the risk of MC drops so much esp if u have seen a HB so I'm starting to chill a bit now at last.
Here is my 10 week bump gate

Hope ure all good and having a lovely day. I'm hoping to order a doppler tomorrow off Amazon not really sure which to go for. Hopefully it won't take to long to arrive and praying I will be able to find babies HB.
The sickness returned again yesterday but I'm feeling ok today apart from the sore boobs and tiredness.
 
Wow what great bump shots everyone! And so happy you found the heartbeat Nolimit!

Agreed that other sites are so horrible! I don’t know why this site is different but it’s nice to find such supportive and positive people!

I think I’ve said this before but for those ladies looking for a Doppler I find the AngelSounds is good (and affordable), I found bubs at just 7.5 weeks with it. Also heard good things about Sonoline B, but it’s more $$

I also stalk the other threads and am excited when I see later due date threads as it shows just how much time has passed :p

Afm, we have a family dinner this Friday so I’ll be telling my family (I’ll be 9 weeks), and in just a few weeks will be announcing to everyone! Exciting to get closer to 2nd Tri. I find this pregnancy has been flying by. I have my first midwife appointment next week. In BC I saw a midwife from 5 weeks so it’s weird they wait until 10 weeks here.

Also ordered a little shirt for DS for our announcement pic!
