20 week scan went well! I had a small moment of worry when she seemed to be very concerned about getting a photo of baby’s left thumb and lay there imagining how tricky life May or may not be without one, but then she found it! We’re team surprise but then she said to look away again as baby then had their legs open so I’m pretty convinced that means it’s a boy as surely if it was a girl you wouldn’t see anything to need to look away? I’m tempted to find out now because I’ve had a boy feeling all along and my husband agrees the way she said it probably meant boy… so is there any point in a surprise?! Oh I don’t know. All that matters is they were wiggling around (so weird that they move so much but you can’t feel anything yet) and look perfectly healthy. Almost half way doesn’t seem real! X

Can anyone recommend a maternity bra please?
I'm looking for non wired, but supportive for big boobs but at the same time not unbearably restrictive.
I've got lindex ones which I just fall out the top of but are really comfy, then I've got Asda ones which are too supportive to the point I don't want to wear them because they physically hurt.

I got a great one from sainsburys
Sloggi have some that are moulded so give good support but not restrictive.
We have a little girl and you could very much see girl parts when they did the image from underneath and between the legs
I just got a dress from ASOS!The dress I ordered for my sister in laws wedding came and it’s VERY Gemma Collinsall sparkly and tacky
has anyone any decent website suggestions, doesn’t have to be maternity wear as most maternity clothes are vile
I’m now doing my best Gemma Collins “you can’t have this caaaaandy”
Missguided had some nice stuff but I love that boohoo dress!!
Oh and they had a whole wrap dress section!

Ooo this is lovely! It’s my godsons christening in august and bit worried about feeling like a frump stood at the front not seen any maternity dresses I like. Good idea going to get on boohoo/ missguidedThe wedding is next month and I will be 6 and half months. The bump is getting a growth spurt at the minute so who knows what size I’ll be then
I love Boohoo! I feel like I shouldn’t as I’m mid thirties 
I’m 33 and I love itI love Boohoo! I feel like I shouldn’t as I’m mid thirties
the quality seems to be a lot better these daysI’m 38 with 2 children, the youngest being 2 years old, my husband wants another one but I’m unsure… I feel like it’s now or never. My husband works long hours so it will all be on me as it is at the moment. Is he being unfair wanting another child or am I overthinking things… Anyone else been in the same situation and what did you decide? If you decided not to have anymore did you regret not doing so..?
Whenever you feel comfortable! Some people pack at 20 weeks, some much later. Personally I pack mine at 38/39 weeks, but I’ve never had a baby come on their own, or early.
I had mine at 8 weeks. Give your GP a call and they’ll either book you in or send you a self referral form x
I signed up with a hospital at 5 weeks and filled an online form (this was after calling the GP and the receptionist told me to do this)- this may vary from region to region.
I didn’t hear back for a while and then I had my first midwife consultation on the phone at 9 weeks where she took lots of medication history etc and told me how to book my 12 week scan and then the second part of that consultation was 11 weeks when I had to go into the hospital and have bloods, urine and blood pressure checked.
hope that helps a bit. If you’re unsure your first port of call may be would be contacting your GP? And going from there x
I think I’m leaning towards the same tbh, I go on annual leave before mat leave when I’m 36 weeks and I really want to have everything done before then so I can just lay on the sofa and binge watch NetflixI've had mine packed since 33 weeks just because I like to be mega organised
Bravado x
I swear by M&S T-shirt bras, they are moulded but not wired. I sometimes add an extender if I’m bloating.
They’re not maternity but I’ve gone up three sizes and i wasn’t small to begin with.
Yay I’m glad the scan went well! I would say she told you to look away so you couldn’t see bits OR lack of bits which could make it obvious either way?
