We are the same person! This is what I use too. In hind sight I’d prob just have gone with the Milton bucket as I only have the pump to sterilise while mam bottles do laps of the microwave!I had the TT steriliser & a Milton cold water one. Both easily fit my pump bits in & my MAM bottles.
I'd say TT are quite versatile and fit most brands of bottles in as you stack them
I’ve never had glucose in my urine so no indicators at allI had no risk factors just glucose in urine so sent for GTT and bam gestational diabetes, think you either get it or you don't. In US and Australia they test all pregnant women for it I believe
I replied on the other thread but none of my estimated weights have been accurate.Hi ladies, hope everyone is well. Had a scan earlier and they’re estimating baby to be 3lbs 5oz so far, I’m 28 weeks today. My BMI is a few points over but not terrible and I don’t have GD…is that big? If this isn’t your first, was your estimated weight accurate at birth? I’m not bothered as long as baby is healthy….I imagine she’ll be 8lbs+ (I was 8lbs 13oz) but my husband’s daughter from a previous relationship was 6lbs something and he keeps going on about how small and cute she was and making me feel like me and my baby are enormous in comparison.
This is exactly it. You either get it or you don't. They say some people are more at risk. But you can't cause it.I had no risk factors just glucose in urine so sent for GTT and bam gestational diabetes, think you either get it or you don't.

I had the steriliser, cold water one and the microwave on the go. Newborn twins need them allWe are the same person! This is what I use too. In hind sight I’d prob just have gone with the Milton bucket as I only have the pump to sterilise while mam bottles do laps of the microwave!
Hope you’re doing okay, don’t forget you always have options. I know you were worried about coming into the pregnancy thread but to be honest, experiencing pregnancy has only made me more pro choiceHi everyone tested this morning and came back positive. I was really upset and my mum found me and I ended up telling her out of panic. Had a big chat with her about everything and going to the doctors this afternoon to confirm. Thx for all your help everyone

My midwife just rang, the maternity assessment centre want me to go this morning to get my bloods taken because of the protein in my pee, midwife was lovely and told me not to panic but it’s so hard not too, they’re concerned about preeclampsiaHad my 25 week midwife appointment today! Everything was fine, took my mum this time and midwife let us listen to the heart beat which was lovely! I had protein and glucose in my pee, for the first time so they’ve sent that off to get checked as a precaution, she checked my blood pressure which was normal and she’s put a date in for the gestational diabetes test but still no MATB1 form, not too concerned about it after checking gov website, it says I should give it in within 21 days of the maternity pay start date. She measured my uterus, I’m on track for 26 weeks. At the time I wasn’t too worried about the protein and the glucose but now I’m thinking should I be?!
They move around quite a bit and one day you can look more pregnant than others. I’m a lot bigger than you but would say I’ve kind of stayed the same size in terms of pregnancy bump for the last few weeks - she moved up a little while ago and I looked a bit more pregnant, but she’s snuggled in somewhere low now and I do not look as prominently preggers as I did! It is really weird. They are so small they can have you on quite a bit. Remember there are people who have no idea they’re pregnant because the baby can be in a position (like under ribs) where the mum just doesn’t show as a consequence.Has/had anyone else around 18 weeks still got a small tummy? I’m scared baby isn’t in there from how small I am stillwhen I was 12 weeks I looked more pregnant from the bloat. I’m usually size 6 and I’ve gone up to size 8 in clothes but that’s it. Still just looking like I ate a big dinner lol I want to look cute and bumpy
I’m 21 weeks and would say I’m only just starting to get an actual bump but that’s because I’ve gained weight everywhere elseHas/had anyone else around 18 weeks still got a small tummy?

Yes this is me some days and I’m 18+2, one day I’ll wake up looking like I’ve already eaten breakfast & others wake up with a more rounded bump.Has/had anyone else around 18 weeks still got a small tummy?

I had similar a few weeks back in the same spot, I went to get it checked as it also felt lumpy but doctor said it looked and felt normal. A few days later it all went down.Has anyone experienced a red patch on their breast during pregnancy? Kinda just to the side of my nipple. Just feels abit tender.
Tbh, that's all the midwife appointments are. Urine sample, blood pressure, done.I’ve had my 16 week appointment today and just felt like it was a bit pointless really! The midwives have changed since the booking appointment and the old midwife forgot to tell me to take a urine sample so that wasn’t tested. They only really took my BP and answered very little questions I have! They also don’t allow you to listen to the heartbeat around here until you are at least over 20 weeks! I suppose it’s done now anyway!
I have been a bit lazy with my pregnancy multivitamins since being over 12 weeks, would any of you still recommend I take them? They contain everything not just folic acid so I suppose it is a good idea to continue.
The midwife asked me if I have felt any movements which I thought was a bit early as it’s my first baby. I’m actually only 15+3 not 16 weeks has anyone else felt movements this early with their first baby?
