Baby strife arrived today by c-section! All went to plan and no complications. I did get sick due to blood pressure dropping a couple times but they are so quick to rectify it and make it stop it’s amazing. Just been bloody itching all over after 😂. So bloody exhausted but so so in love he’s a wee (chunky!) cutie pie. The growth scans were right with this one lol
Congratulations 😍😍
 
I’m literally obsessed with watching my belly and seeing my baby move 😭I think my husbands starting to get a bit fed up of me saying ‘quick put your hand here!’
I saw baby practicing breathing for the first time today and managed to get it on video, it’s so cool!

Congratulations! Did you choose to have a section because of the growth scans, or was there other reasons? I’m still weighing up ideas for mybirth plan.

Yeh, he was measuring ten days ahead and I have ehlers danlos so higher risk of tear, bleed and hips dislocating. They suggested I get induced at 39 but induction was a route I really didn’t want to go down.

I remember clawing my face with itch after my section with my daughter, ended up a scabby mess 🤣

12 week scan in an hour. Will find out if it’s all been in my head or I actually genuinely have a little baby inside of me! 😅 Wish me luck!

I'm nearly 28 weeks and consultant led care due to a history of pre eclampsia and I am having the same tingly sensation in the same sort of place. I explained it to my consultant like almost pins and needles at the top of my rib. She didn't seem overly concerned and said it was most likely a trapped nerve issue as you have said.
Ah thank you so much. This is reassuring. I really appreciate your reply. ♥
I wasn't overly worried just with being closely monitored too, I was definitely trying to be logical lol

I’m 17+2 and think I might have been feeling baby move the last few days. It just feels like a tapping feeling below my bellybutton, not the flutters that everyone else seems to describe. Maybe it’s just trapped wind 😅

I'd say that's baby moving, I felt my first baby at 16 weeks and it didn't feel like flutters either. Movements got stronger each week and by 20 weeks I could feel her moving everyday :)

Ugghhhh I feel like such a mug. Posted a couple of days ago about how I was pretty sure labour was imminent because of the way I was feeling. Well here I am, still no baby. I know I’m only just shy of 39 weeks so could technically still have another few weeks to go but honestly I feel like I’ve been pregnant for years 😂 I absolutely HATE the waiting game

I feel your pain, I finished work at 35 weeks and didn't give birth until 41 weeks with my first baby :oops: I had annual leave to use up before my maternity started at 38 weeks. I was SO bored and impatient! I'm definitely working for as long as possible this time to try and keep busy but hopefully I won't go over my due date this time with baby no.2 :ROFLMAO:

I’m 38 weeks, and now and again I thought my body was getting ready - tightenings and some period-like pain, bit of lower back pain. But nothing.

I was 2 weeks over for my first and I really don’t want to go over this time. I’m just bored of being pregnant!

I'm totally bored of it all and SO uncomfortable - I can barely do anything or get up if I sit down 😆 - and I'm only 33 weeks haha 😭

Well I’ve just had the biggest shock of my life. The sonographer said she could see two heads 😂 I’m having twins! I’m absolutely shell-shocked

Yes! At the age of 38. Talk about getting 2 for 1!! Here’s me not believing I’m pregnant for the last 8 weeks 😆 They are non-identical and I was told that’s lower risk so I’m relieved about that. Just waiting for my bloods to come back in a few days to check them both for DS etc. I’m already a big girl as well 🙈 a bit panicky about how large I’ll be in a few months time.

Congratulations!! It must be quite a lot to get your head around, but ultimately wonderful news ❤
