I'm only 23 weeks and already feeling sore everywhere ngl but my job requires a lot of standing and bending which is definitely when I feel it the worst! Over the last few weeks I've decreased my hours and I now only have 2 weeks left before I use up my holiday and then I'm going on maternity leave as soon as possible
best of luck for your appointment tomorrow! Hopefully you can find out the gender too, would love an update if you feel comfortable sharing
People didn't really picked up I was pregnant (although first and 1 baby) until I was like 5 months along? And these are people at the office and pilates class. I thought it was extremely obvious.How exciting!!! So glad there's someone else on this thread expecting twinnies. I'm glad we didn't find out at our 12 week scan actually; at least we've got an extra 4 weeks of thinking time.
Eeeeek!! Hope everything is going well for you. I'm really quite worried as we'd booked Disneyland Paris for December and I'll be around 28 weeks if everything goes okay.Wondering what the hell to do.
I've also got an internal job interview this week and I already look pregnant!
I think sometimes people are too polite to say anything (not always I must admit), but I didn't look pregnant with my first until 6 months and that's when I popped. I think second time they say you get bigger quicker as your body knows what to do... mine certainly knows what it's doing
. I've had to buy size oversized shirts, but if the wind blows against it it's very obvious. We had the scan. Both babies are looking good and measuring well. We also found out we’re having two little boys 🩵🩵I'm only 23 weeks and already feeling sore everywhere ngl but my job requires a lot of standing and bending which is definitely when I feel it the worst!

So glad to hear everything looks good, congratulations on your baby boys 🥹 I am so exhausted ngl and my 3 year old never gives me a break when I'm home
Thank you so much! It’s so nice speaking to people in a similar boat.So glad to hear everything looks good, congratulations on your baby boys 🥹 I am so exhausted ngl and my 3 year old never gives me a break when I'm home
I suffered a lot of anxiety with my first and as soon as I heard the word twins I knew it would only be worse this time. My twins are DCDA so are lower risk but I hope you have lots of support and/or you can easily get it if you feel like you need it. It's understandable to feel anxious, especially like you said as so much can go wrong but it's good you will be having regular scans to keep an eye on the main concerns!
I wish you and your boys all the best 🩵

Once I know whether I've got the internal job or not, it'll make things a bit easier. If I haven't then I'll tell my line manager bcus quite frankly there's a 90% chance I'm gonna vom on her at this point and if I have got the job then I just need to wait.
Awww congratulations on your twinnie boys
I can only say I have oatmeal with banana before bed to help with acid reflux,but it also works for that, and I am taking iron.What are we doing for constipation? I don’t take iron tablets (don’t need to) so it’s not due to that. Taking magnesium nightly. Drinking plenty. Trying to get fruit and veg in and brown bread etc.
I’m still waiting for the pregnancy glow and I’m 31 weeks tomorrow
I had it so bad in first trimester. Aside from massively upping my fibre intake, I did take senna/ Dulcoease (*) when it got really bad cos BUMPs said it was fineWhat are we doing for constipation?

, kefir and also pear juice worked as well and increasing fibre although I already had a fair amount. Also got Lactulose from the pharmacy but it took a few days to work.I had this so bad last time round and I’m getting it againWhat are we doing for constipation?

Fybogel worked wonders for me. Also I’d blend up tinned prunes with other fruit like grapes to make a smoothie which tasted surprisingly nice!Thank you thank you! Are yours MCDA too? Our consultant today was brilliant - he basically said that with DCDA, there is an option for vaginal delivery or c-section at 37 weeks. However with MCDA, he said that they would strongly recommend a c-section at 36 weeks.Awww congratulations on your twinnie boys
Fingers crossed everything goes smoothly for you. Sounds like they're keeping a close eye which is great news although I know it can seem quite a lot.
Have they said about birth options yet? At only 8 weeks I'm being told conflicting advice by the midwife and consultant.
Bananas are a hard no for me, I do like porridge oats though! The heartburn is a lot to contend with at the moment, too!
