Aw no way!Had my wedding dress fitting at 8 months pregnantI must've lost weight before getting pregnant cos it fastened fine hahaha! Gonna need a lot of taking I'm once this baby is out of me!
Got some pics where you can see the bump so in a few years I can show him how he was in mummy's belly when she got a dress haha
I always find it so crazy how each trust does things so differently! You'd think there'd be consistency.I think my trust start fundal height at 28 weeks midwife appointment.
However, if you’re having growth scans they won’t do both so I’ve never had one!
Deffo sounds like braxton hicks !Does this sound like braxton hicks to you? About 5 times now this morning my stomach has gone really tight and feels almost super bloated, only lasts for about 10 seconds each time and it's completely painless but it's a very odd sensation and quite uncomfortable where it's so tight. I'm not sure if it's braxton hicks or something else like baby laying awkwardly?
You're getting married in two weeks?! Congrats!Aw no way!

I got it at 7 weeks, it’s perfectly fine to take but they’re very reluctant to give it at first. I was on it with my first HG and knew I needed it this time so they eventually agreed as they seen nothing else worked. My GP has also given me it fine, I have a review coming up next week so he might try to get me to stop but I still need it.Is Ondansetron still only given when you’re past 12 weeks? x
That's soooo lovely! What a special way to announce!thank you!! Yess we are going to announce at the wedding I’m sooo excited
This is so cute, what a nice way to tell everyone!thank you!! Yess we are going to announce at the wedding I’m sooo excited
I can’t understand how it’s so different between trusts for so much stuff! Mine just said the growth scan is more accurate and so won’t do them. As long as the growth is being measured one way then I’m not too fussed!I always find it so crazy how each trust does things so differently! You'd think there'd be consistency.
My trust don't start fundal height until 28 weeks either but they also do it alongside growth scans. I'm on a "serial scan" pathway due to a complication and they still do them even though I'm having growth scans really regularly anyway. For example I have a growth scan next week then a midwife appointment the day after and she's already said she'll still do the measurement even though I'll have only have had a scan the day before!
OhMyGosh ahaha I just came on to ask for baby bag recommendations.what does everyone intend to use for a hospital bag? I'm wondering whether to use a holdall for me and the changing bag for baby, or whether I need to use a small suitcase/cabin case?
also, what baby changing bag does everyone recommend? the travel system we've gone for doesn't come with one so I need to choose. I'm not sure whether to get one of the backpack ones or one with a shoulder strap?
Thank youFundal height isn’t terribly accurate.
I’m not a medic but as far as I understand they want to see baby follow a smooth trajectory on the plotting chart. If they’re not, it’ll trigger the booking of a growth scan for a more accurate measurement. It’s just a belt and braces to approach to check for any reasons growth could have slowed but it’s likely that the measurements were just inaccurate in the first place. Rather than ‘we see something concerning here’, it’s ’let’s make sure there’s nothing to be concerned about’.
You’ve got a proactive midwife, that’s a really good thing x
For a hospital bag I'm using like a cabin sized suitcase, I used a holdall with my first and I wish I hadn't cos you can open a suitcase up wide and see everything without stress.what does everyone intend to use for a hospital bag?

I’m using a cabin case and change bag because the maternity pads, inco pants and nappies & snacks take up tons of space I’d like to try to wedge it all into the least bags.what does everyone intend to use for a hospital bag?

Fundal height is the measurement from the top of your uterus to the pubic bone.How is fundal height measured? I had my first proper midwife check yesterday and she didn’t seem to measure my tummy at all but has written “17” on my notes. Is it just done by weeks until I’m further along?
