Kath how cool!! I've never been this far pregnant so unsure what movements feel like.. but I know I'm feeling things I've never felt before! It's like a gold fish tail flopping around or what I can describe as a daddy long legs moving around.. so hard to explain lol! I was unsure until today I used doppler and as I felt something move. . I heard it move on the doppler!!!!!!
Yes a goldfish is a good way of describing it, I usually say it's like a butterfly fluttering about. Feels very much like wind bubbles so I think that's what people mistake it for. It's only when the baby starts moving a bit more that you realise what it was!
Hi! I am good! Very tired tonight and I have been having bad morning sickness but I had it pretty bad last time too all the way through. Hoping it calms down this time though!! Fingers crossed. How are you?
My BMI is high too which is also why I'm getting the scans, they seem to keep talking about gestational diabetes though I've been tested for it with each of my boys so I dunno!
I have felt funny all day today, really full even though I haven't eaten much and sick.
I'm here im here! Soooo sorry have been busy busy bee.... I'm well thank you!!! Apart from a bladder/kidney infection now so I am on antibiotics. Which worried me about taking them but worse not to so I had to! I've also been having some dizzy spells and nearly fainting so suspected blood pressure as mines usually on the lower side anyway. Doc said at this stage upto 20 weeks blood pressure will be low for everyone usually and dips at its lowest at 20 weeks then peaks back up again. I had it checked yesterday it was 90/60. I'm drinking enough and trying to eat extra salt but not seeming to work.
I've brought 2 baby items!!!! We brought a vest from mothercare saying 'I love mummy and daddy' and a all in one outdoor thing? with a hood with ears. Love it!
Had bloods again yesterday. Have my 16 week check on the 14th. And bloods again 2 weeks later. Then scan is 2 weeks after that. Eeeek flying by!
Oh no! Hope your feeling better soon.
I have my next midwife appointment on the 15th April and my 20wk scan on the 18th May.
I need to find a house back in my old town before this baby is born, we rent but there is nothing suitable!!! Argh! Its stressing me out loads now
I currently live 15miles away and have to commute every day sometimes 2/3times. I will never cope with a newborn as well. X
Oh no! Don't let it stress you. Whatever will be will be. Keep looking and doing what you can, something will come up!
Ahh one day after mine, Midwife app on a Saturday? OH has booked off work for that appt as its our first midwife one since 5 weeks, and that one is usually just a lot of Qs and paperwork!
