I think blue - that is my bet
Tiff - excellent news there and it sounds like you are all doing great.
Keen - I can't believe how far along I am either. It's gone so fast!
Amy - There isn't much you can take for hayfever while pg (your GP will be able to advise though). I use a buffered saline spray a couple of times a day. It really just helps to clear the passages a little. You can also try inhaling a little eucalyptus oil in warm water. It might not stop you sneezing but I think it will help with the sinuses (and the snoring. HA!)
Did you say to DH "Well, my sinuses are blocked. What's your excuse?" =)
Okay, if we're starting bets on gender ... I think Apple is blue and I think Shell's is pink!
Got to run so I'll talk to you all later. Have a good day.
Mel
Tiff - fantastic news that your babies are growing so well, and the placenta looks great, and the uterus is healthy!! That is excellent! Hopefully, your fainting and stuff starts to settle - have you stopped work yet??
Amy - I agree with Mel - not much you can really take for hayfever in pg, but the saline spray several times a day works reasonably well. Not as good as a decongestant, but....
Keen - how are you going. Not long till you start your next cycle - I have all my fingers and toes crossed for a positive outcome. Must be coming up soon!!
Sushee, Tam, Jo, Shell, Sal, Shazz (and everyone I missed...) how are you all going??
Not much to report here. Plodding along. I have joined the land of giant swollen hippo feet, and don't even need to do much to get them to blow up!! Very sexy not!!
We have put a sexy plastic sheet on the bed, just in case something happens early (don't really want to be replacing our new mattress just yet), and it is the strangest sensation sleeping on plastic. I feel like I am at the hospital on night duty stealing a kip on the pts beds... My hubby says it feels kind of naughty!! (Maybe it is practicing for when we are old and need to sleep on plastic because of 'accidents' LOL!!
I have finished painting munchy's room!! YAY!! I need to take piccies of my other attempts at artwork, and will post them a little later on this morning.
Started packing both my bag and munchy's bag. My hubby is so funny. He said I had to put an outfit together for him to go to the hospital in when the time comes - and listen to this, it needs to have his undies and socks and everything so he does not have to be looking for anything, when he is in a tizz!! trying to get me to the hospital. LOL! I had to laugh so much, because I can just imagine. I keep telling him, that it is unlikely to happen that fast because it is the first baby afterall (who am I trying to convince here???)
Anyway, better potter off and have breakfast and clean my kitchen, so catch up with you all later.
Have a great day!
Gab... OMG 4 weeks left!! How did that happen? Oh and btw I think you can safley remove the stick and grow please from your ticker... it won't be long until it's time for little munchy to unstick :D And I've heard he has grown quite well
Tanya
Lol Tanya!!
4 weeks - I know! I have to keep pinching myself to believe that it is really true and it is really happening to us after all this time (but not as long as some!). Mind you my bouncing, moving belly should remind me that it is really real every minute!!
Yep, munchy is a good size, ehm. 'this one is not going to be a wimp' in the words of the good radiologist! Last heard he was 3 weeks ahead in size for gestation. But, I guess their growth is unpredictable in these last few weeks so you never know where he'll end up!!
I have loved and love being pg, so I just keep saying to hubby that I pray we can do it again!! (Oh, and I have not even given birth yet LOL!). My hubby on the other hand, loves my belly so much, that he has decided that I should be permanently knocked up until I can't any more...... Not sure about that one!
Hope all is well with you and your little girls! And thank you for dropping in!
My girls are great... growing too fast!!
It's so great to hear that you are enjoying being pg, now that your body knows it isn't so bad, hopefully it will comply next time ;)
Are you going to do a belly mould? Sounds like DH would be able to do it for you :D
Tanya
Mel, good to see u back in here again. Wow, ur scan is so close now, ok, my guesses are the opposite, Pink for u (8/11) & blue for me (17/11) :-)
Gab, wow only 4wks left, bet u just cant wait now. Good idea with the plastic, geez it'd be yukky if 1 of our waters broke in car or shops or on carpet at work/home, hehe. LOL at ur DH's idea.
Tiff, great news on ur scan, sounds like ur twinnies r doin really well. Just hope those iron stores build up so u can feel better.
Jo, great u got that scan so quick, for re-assurance that everything's ok. Hope the kitties r making a speedy recovery.
Amy, hope that hayfever eases up, but not coz ur getting some snoring revenge, LOL.
Tam, how u doin?
Keen, as they say 3rd time lucky, hope u r & bring a stack of the LT TTC'ers too... :-)
Shazz, hope ur doin well, especially with that re-assuring doppler.
well I just bought a doppler too on ebay for $68 + $13.95 postage (angel sounds), same as one my friend lent me for few wks, she paid $110. Well had to take the video camera back, it was so NOT good quality, it was very poor on image quality, got a refund. Seems u can't trust the claims made by salespeople & manufacturer's. Might hold off bit longer now.
quick post from work:
Blue for Mel
Blue for Shell
Pink for me!! (23rd Nov)
Lol!

BTW I'm not finding out the flavour so we won't know if I'm right until....ooohh...sometime in April next year!

Hi everyone, I was posting on the long-term TTC thread for a while last year. Great to be back and recognise so many familiar names of women who are now pg!
I too am finally 11 weeks (or is it still 10?) after TTC alone. All up had 8 cycles IUI using donor sperm.
Thrilled to be pg, but at the same time feeling anxious that it all goes well ... it was just such a huuuuge journey to get here!
Feel no pg symptoms whatsoever really these days - was tired and hungry at first but now no M/S, no breast tenderness or growth ...a bit of a worry at times.
Having my neuchal fold test in 2 weeks and cannot wait to see the reassuring image of a heartbeat.
Would love to know if anyone else experienced doubts that they were even pg at this stage!
Welcome back Rosebud!
Glad to see everyone is going along smoothly!
Gab - i had to laugh at the plastic sheet!!!
I'm hot, tired, uncomfortable and something else but I cannot remember what!?? I have pains in the belly, just the stretching pains and they are starting to drive me a bit demented.
Had a dr appt on Monday and everything is going along well, my normal dr found the hb straight away! Must be his vast experience or age lol!
The kittens are growing v-e-r-y fast. They are still contagious, so that might be a reason why I'm tired, all this vacuuming and mopping of the floors! House has never been so clean and tidy!
Take care everyone!
Hi Rosebud - Great to see you in here, hope you can relax and enjoy your pregnancy a bit after your scan. I think it's perfectly normal to be feeling like you do, I think we've all gone through that in here so understand completely how you feel.
Jo - Yay for your DR and finding the heartbeat. Sorry you're feeling a bit yuck. I had pains in my lower belly a couple of days ago, think it was stretching - I can only imagine what it's like with two in there! Must admit I need to get cleaning around the house but have absolutely NO motivation. House needs to be very clean around birth time because of our home birth but think I'll have to bite the bullet and get in cleaners, cause at the moment I can't be arsed doing it!
I am useless at the gender prediction game! All my womanly instincts have been completely wrong in the last 5 months so I'm going to say blue for Mel and pink for Shell and Sush. You can just about guarantee it'll be the opposite!!
Shell - Glad to hear you're well, bummer about the camera - hope you get a new one sorted.
Well if it wasn't for this hayfever I would be great, but I'm not going to complain anymore! Have tried everything I'm allowed to try - homeopathic drops, pineapple and nothing really works so I'm just going to grin and bear it!
Take care everyone.
Good morning all
I have tried to read up on all the posts, but boy there were a few pages.
I am back from our hols. It was great, I LOVED the weather. Especially where we were, as it is always another couple of degrees warmer than Melb. Furbabies had a good time and the twins got a bit of sunshine too.
I had my Glucose test yesterday, so should find out the results tomorrow. OB appointment tomorrow morning. The drink I thought was fine too, I didn't mind it, but boy it sure made me very tired.
Hi Rosebud! Welcome Back!!! Congrats on your pregnancy. Hope you can pop in from time to time and give us an update!! Good luck for your NT. When i had my first set of twins I didn't have one day of MS not one. I guess it is different for everybody and different for every pregnancy.
Amy, Sorry to hear that the pineapple didn't work. Hoe that hayfever leaves you soon.
My bet is Blue for Mel, Pink for Shell and Pink for Sushee too. OOHHHH can't wait to find out!!!
As for me, well I started on t he dreaded insulin yesterday and told that I needed to stick with the iron. Asked how I was coping and when I burst into tears the doctor thought counselling would be a good idea. MMM, I would just prefer a good level of antenatal care myself, a nice midwife/doctor balance.
Gabby- just popping in once again to catch up on how you are going. Love the painting! You are so clever!
LOL @ you being able to paint on walls because you are a grown-up now ;) I still wouldn't attempt it as I have about as much artistic talent as a rock! ;) Wow @ munchy being 3 weeks larger than he "should" be. It's funny... I always thought Gabby was going to be around 7lbs but my last growth ultrasound predicted 8lbs 11oz! Man... did I freak! She was born 8lbs on the nose so they got it pretty spot on.
It's great that you have enjoyed your pregnancy. You certainly deserved to have a fantastic time with all that you went through to conceive. Oooo I am so excited! Gonna pop in heaps more over the next few weeks to keep an eye on you!
Afternoon all,
Tiff ~ oh Hon how are you feeling luckily it will be Dec before you can blink .... ](*,) they have already told me that insulin will be on the cards for me in the not to distant future i have all the SX of being GD the thirst is the one i can't take getting the shikky shakes (as i call them ) when my BSL drops is always fun too but we will wait and see what they have in store for me i suppose
Shell ~ i am loving my doppler i am feeling so much less stressed about it all now how are you doing ??
Gabby ~ the room looks wonderful you did such a great job .. how are you feeling ??
on the blue /pink betting
Shell pink
Mel blue
Sushee Blue
Me pink i will find out on the 8th Dec 8-[ maybe
big hi to every one else
oh and BTW i have started to feel Bub moving another reassurance yay
YAY Shazz on the baby moving!!!!
I think Pink for you too!
Double post by accident! Please see below!
Heehee!
love
sushee
Hi again Jackie (Rosebud) and welcome to the thread! As for being paranoid, I sure as h*ll am still paranoid even at almost 17 weeks. I don't know when it stops, maybe when you're at Gabby's stage, four weeks away from birth! Lol!
As for symptoms, I had ms and tiredness, but these disappeared almost overnight at about 11.5 weeks, about the same time I felt bub move for the first time. Then I started to stress about lack of movement if I didn't feel bub for more than 8 hours! It never ends...
Jo, as nice as it is to see your kitties grow, it's also kinda sad, isn't it, that they're not kittens anymore? Have told DH that ours are going to have to be trained not to sleep in our bed anymore from about December. They currently get under the covers and stay there all night. But they're not small now and if they think it's okay to do that with us, they may well do it to baby in it's cot, so the bedroom's got to be offlimits to them soon.
Shazz, I'm glad you're feeling better about things lately. And how exciting that you can feel bub move now! You too Shell. Gosh it's all going so fast!
Gabby, you're like this amazing superwoman whizz with the decorating! My only dictate from DH is that we need to change the carpetting in the house, and even that job seems too overwhelming to think about.
Tiff, poor sweet with the insulin. My sister had GD and she hated the *****s and needles and stuff. I feel for you.
Tam, yay on what sounds like a wonderful holiday! DH and I are going down to the South West for 5 days late Nov/early Dec, staying at the Abbey Beach Resort. Our last fling before the bub comes. Were thinking about resurrecting our plans to go to Melb, but money and his concern about me flying nixed it. Oh well!
Amy, I'm not good at gender prediction either! I like that it's going to be a surprise though. I hope you're been feeling fine and am taking care of yourself, and that the hayfever isn't knocking you about too much.
Mel, it's nice to see you about lately. Not long until your scan and apple will be know as Master Apple or Miss Apple!
Sal, missing you! Stop studying for a minute and come say hi!
So proud of my monster post of personals. I hope I haven't missed anyone! We need more graduates from the LT threads!
love
sushee
Hi Girls!!
Very proud to say I managed to get some more piccies up on the website and also a new one of my big, fat belly taken today!!
Rosebud - welcome !! Congratulations on finally succeeding, cannot wait to hear how your scan goes in a couple of weeks!! How exciting. As to the anxiety - well, I would love to tell you that Sush is right and at this stage I am reeeeally relaxed, but well, no. I still worry, I still wait for him to move, but overall, Sush is right, it does get a little less stressful particularly I found after the 20w U/S, once I knew Munchy was healthy, growing as he should and they did not find anything untoward. So just hang in there!! I too did not have too many symptoms - certainly no boob symptoms, just a bit of nighttime nausea and that was it. Whilst worrysome, it is a blessing really, because you hear some horror stories about what some ladies go through in the first and second trimester... so, in retrospect I feel happy about it (probably wasn't then though!!).
Jo - yep, plastic sheet is funny. It is definitely a funny feeling sleeping on something that rustles all night long, but you just wait!! Your turn on the slippery sheet is coming!! LOL!! How are you going otherwise??
TamB - good to see you about. Hope your results came in nice and negative for the GTT.
Debbie - thanks so much for popping in to check up on me!! You are so sweet!! As to the baby size - well, all will be revealed in a few weeks I figure, so no point in stressing about it - this is what I have decided!! Hmm, wonder how I will waver as it comes closer..... How is everything with you a the little one! Babies first Xmas - How exciting!!
Babydreams - thanks for the lovely comment on the room! We are almost there! Feeling well otherwise, just getting to that a little bit awkward stage where not many things are terribly comfortable and well, my feet have joined the land of the hippos, LOL!! But they should be back in a few weeks I am told, so I will just hang out for that one.
Sush - thank you too for such lovely comments about the decorating. I love playing with my house, although I have not drawn anything other than operation diagrams since high school, so was a bit worried about stuffing up the baby room with the painting. But, well, it turned out OK, except maybe of big bird who is supposed to be a pelican, but well, kids can be forgiving!! Hope all is going fabulously well with you!
I am sure I have missed lots of people - I am so sorry.... bellyrubs and hugs to all of you though!!
Had my Obs appt today - he tells me the baby is fully engaged with the head well and truly down my pelvis. He thinks that my 4 hour contraction scare last week was the head engaging - apparently this can happen, and he said that it is not unusual to get runs of these contractions pre birth, so he said not to worry if I have more of them. Says baby is still very big, but he is happy with my progress and all - says it is and has been a textbook pregnancy to date. Oh, and he said that I will have a fantastic labour (qualified with 'that does not mean that it is not going to hurt and stuff...').
Onto weekly visits from now.
Oh, and had to have those lovely vaginal swabs done today for the groupB strep. Soooo sexy!!
Well, I better potter off, and cook us an early dinner as we have the body corporate meeting tonight and so need to eat before!
Take care,
Woo hoo for Munchy being engaged, Gab! He's a clever little sausage for figuring out that's the way to go. Those swabs are just divine, aren't they? By the time you come out of the hospital with Munchy, you'll feel like every Tom, **** and Harry has peered up there n e way so the pre-birth stuff will seem like a holiday, LOL. You're belly is lookin' good! And I personally think the pelican is pretty darn good! Doesn't look like Big Bird at all!
Gabby is going well. Yes... we are all excited for her first Chrissy. She even has a gorgeous little blue dress with matching knickers to wear on the day (I went with blue because her eyes remained blue). I am hoping she has more hair by then but I am not counting my chickens!
Have fun tonight (if that's possible!).
hhmmm seems a consensus about PINK for Sush, alas we all have to wait though ;) !
Hi girls,
well, I've had a lovely time looking at all your websites. I'm just soooooo happy for you all. Jo, get some bloody piccies up of your belly girl!!
I can't believe that Gab is about to pop!! It only seems a few weeks back when you announced you were pg and were still calling Munchie "Tac"!!
The time is rapidly coming up for me to start TTC for #2. Pup is 4 months old now and is growing and changing way too fast. Sometimes brings a ear to my eye. We had his christening last Sunday - had a lovely day. Will post some photos on the website (which needs a serious overhaul - it still looks like a pg site!!). Anyway, Pup is now 5.9kg (or 13lb 2 oz in the old money) and is 60 cm long. Today we "retired" his 000 Bonds jumpsuits. Just a bit too tight. Had to buy 00 size at Target. This was one of my teary moments of him growing up too fast (also when he goes up a size in nappies!!)
Well, I just thought I'd pop in and drop you all a line and let you know I'm thinking of you all.
Lotsa luv
Hayseed
Wow Hayseed thinking of number 2 - that's fantastic. Glad to hear your wee boy is growing fast.
Gab - The nursery looks brilliant, just missing the baby! Not long now... I'm so excited! I've managed to put the first coat of paint on the nursery and that wore me out so need to find the energy to keep going on it now.
I'm going to get a freize done at the signwriters for around the wall that is a nursery rhyme but just need to think of one - preferably themed around animals...any suggestions anyone?
Sush - nice post, very impressive!
Love to everyone else!
Hayseed, just had another look at your website - what a perfect, gorgeous baby Thomas is! Can I order one of them please?!!
Gab YAY for Munchy and the room looks great.
Hay, that's so exciting about TTC #2 soon.
Hope everyone is well.
OB checkup this morning. Weigh in was 66kg, only 1 kg in 3 weeks and a totoal of 10kg total for the pregnancy so far. Very happy with this. Rylee's HB was 140 and Declan's 150, fundal height = 36weeks. All my tests came back clear, which is great. BP also great. I start steriod injections on Monday for the babies, to mature their lungs in case they do come early. So everything is going swell.
Morning Girls!
Just doing the pregnant thing and sitting in front of the computer very early on Saturday morning, because I cannot sleep - sore hips, sore nether regions and pubic bones and a very active little munchy!! (love it, love it, I do!!).
So, just thought I would see all is well with everyone!
Hay - Thomas is sooooo cute. Cannot believe that you will be TCCing again in a couple of months! Wow!! Hopefully though, you have discoverred that magic formula with the prog, estrogen and stuff you were on with Thomas, and your TCC journey will be short and sweet. I have all my fingers and toes crossed for you. Does this mean you have just about finished breast feeding?? Are your cycles back?? (Just keeping notes, because we want to start TCCing #2 at around 6 or so months post birth, if my cycles return etc. Thought we'd give it a go for a 6 months naturally till Munchy is a year or so, and if we don't succeed then think about IVF again...... praying that it'll happen somehow....)
Keen - how are you going this cycle??
Sush - a pink concensus hey?? Is that your feeling too? Do you prefer a little girl or a little man??
NZGirl - well done on starting the nursery!! We kind of didn't do anything about it, and then realised, shoot, we are 34 weeks ... better go and buy some stuff and paint the room!! So we made all our purchases at 34 weeks, and started the room then too! Oh, and my contraction scare last week (which the obs reckons was the head engaging) made me address the bag situation. So, that only leaves the car seats and capsule now.... Don't actually know any nursery rhymes - I know, very sad, and I better learn some, so cannot help with the freize, I am sorry.... Hope you are swimmingly well otherwise!!
TamB - glad all is well with Declan and Rylee!! I cannot believe how time flies and how far along you are already! Well done! I am thrilled that all your tests are excellent, sounds as though you are having a textbook pg also! Will you be having an elective caesar or will you try a natural delivery? How are the preparations going??
Big hello to everyone else!! Hope you are having a lovely sleep in this morning!
Thanks Amy and Gab for saying that Pup is cute. We think so!!!!
Gab, nah my cycles haven't returned yet (no sign of AF) and I am still fully BFing Pup (hence why no AF!). I'm thinking that once we start the little man on solids and he drops off a bit on the breast milk, maybe my cycles will return. Dr said that I may have to stop BFing if I want AF to come in order to get pg again. We'll just have to see. I have pretty much resolved to not start TTC before 6 months, because I don't want to give up BFing totally before then. After 6 months and he is on solids, I will probably be less regimented about it all. After all, he won't be 100% reliant on me.
Tam/Gab, get those bags packed and stuff. I went in much earlier than anticipated and was almost caught out!!!
Amy, I don;t know any nursery rhymes with lots of animals in it. Some songs though...
Old MacDonald had a farm;
The old lady who swallowed a fly/spider/bird/cat/dog/goat/cow/horse;
ummm... that's about all I know.
Best go. Pup is crying..... Ahh, your time is not your own.
Hayseed
Gab, OMG at all the paintings they are fantastic!! No wonder you're a good surgeon, you are great with your hands.
Good Lovely Monday Morning Ladies!!
See, I can say that now, I get to stay home.... keep thinking, normally I would have been at work for about 3 hours now, done a round, started operating, would be starving because I wouldn't have eaten breakfast, probably had one kind of disaster or another happen already..... Hmmm, instead, I woke up at 7am, instead of 5, had coffee in bed rather than in the bathroom whilst getting ready, had breakfast ! and with hubby too!!, and so far, the only disaster in my day is how many loads of washing I need to do!! LOL!! How lazy does my morning sound!
For all of you still at work, my sincere condolences, LOL!!
Hay - yep, I think you are right, I had better finish packing the bags! Munchy's is ready, its just ours that is lagging behind. I hope that you get a BFP quickly after you start trying in a couple of months or so! Are you excited about it?? Thomas should be starting solids about now ??? I agree about the breastfeeding thing. I am hopeful, if I can breastfeed, to keep going till about then too. I will be on leave till mid July next year, by then Munchy should be 7 goinng onto 8 months old, so timing should work out just right.
Sas - thanks for the compliment about the painting. I had not painted anything since high school, so was a bit worried about stuffing up, but it all turned out well in the end!! I just wanted the room to look really happy, just to reflect how happy we are to finally be having a little bub of our own. Just have to deliver him safely lol!! So, now for the personal question... are you thinking of #2 yet?? I notice Gwen (Welshgirl) is back TCCing #2, so that is just amazing. I keep remembering we were all trying for #1 at the same time, and here we are.....
Where is everyone else ladies??
Hope you are all resting, and being looked after!
Speak soon,
Hello!
Though it was about time I said hello in here, though I've been watching for a while...
Gab I'm sure you'll get used to relaxing and drinking coffee in bed. I remember back on those last few weeks at home as a very special time with just me and my belly. Enjoy it!
Good morning all
Gab the room looks great!!! So good to see you around here a little more. I am hoping for a natural delivery as ATM both babies are head down. but anything can happen between now and delivery time.
Hay I have started packing my hospital bag now.
Well I had my first steriod injection today, in my buttocks!! It was ok though. I have also updated the website again, Journal and photos.
Hi girls,
quick pop in from work, will BB later after catching up on some work I have from my day off on Friday. I can't wait to finish work! Only 15 more weeks...sigh!
Hello to all you lovely ladies. While I haven't been posting as much, I am keeping a keen eye on everyone's progress. Hay, I'm gonna check out Thomas's website in a sec, but am excited that the start of the quest for #2 is coming! I am very aware that this is my last pg, last bub, last chance and am so sad about how fast it's going! I'm less than 3 weeks from the halfway mark already. The time has flown!
And as for my feeling about the little'un's flavour, must admit it changes from week to week. This week I'm sure it's a boy, but two weeks ago was convinced it was a girl. No help am I? Lol!
Going back to read the posts I missed.
Love
sushee
Not for a while yet Gab, we want to enjoy Alexzander while he's little. We're thinking of waiting until he's about one, so in 4ish months I guess.
Welcome & congrats Rosebud.
Tam, thats great u had a good hol, good to see u back & with under 12wks to go, geez. Wow, only 10kg, I have just clocked 6kg already & am not even at the half way mark yet, yikes. Belly grew another 2cm in 1wk. Altho mum put on 24kg with us 4 & sis put on 30kg with my nephew.
Jo, great that the Dr found the h/bs straight away.
Oh dear Tiff, hope u get that good care soon. Yikes on the insulin, u too Shazz. My cuz, who's 2wks behind me is lookin like she's getting GD too.
Amy, well we've got a 50/50 chance of being right/wrong about flavours. I have to totally agree with u on the cleaning, i still get so tired, cleaning is the last thing on my mind & we're still renovating, which is makin more mess, furniture/dust everywhere. :-)
Mel, ooh, tomorrow's the day, what time's ur aptmt?
Sush, ur certainly right about the time flying, well for others anyway, we are nearly half way. I'm just hangin for the morph scan. What sort of stuff do they find out at morph scans, apart from flavour? Ur hol sounds great, we too were thinkin of going away for a few days in the caravan b4 bub comes.
Gab, yay on munchy engaging, could be anytime now hey. Great job on the rest of the painting too.
Hayseed, glad to hear things are going well with urself U cutey thomas. How's that ankle?
As for bub movin, I'm still not sure, every few days or more, for a short time, I get feelings that I'm sure are movement, but shouldn't it be more regular than that? Maybe what i've been feeling isn't movement yet, using the doppler once or twice a wk. :-)
As for my other 2 'guesses', pink for sush & blue for shazz. Oh & Sat, DH said he's not too sure on our boys name now, my dad said it is a sissy name, why cant he just keep his mouth shut sometimes.

Melbo, well, where r u... :-)
Melbo
what flavour is Apple ? waiting to hear ...
Shell,
I didn't feel any movements until 22 weeks and then I didn't feel anythng regular (ie every day) until about 26 weeks. Depending on where your placenta is located, the amount of room in your uterus and your own body size, you may be a few weeks yet off feeling anything significant. Your normal!!
Hayseed
Hello Ladies,
Just a quick post before I have to run off for work.
Apple is a William. The scan showed a normal functioning heart, set of kidneys, spine, brain with two hemispheres, closed skull, normal feet and hands etc. He was drinking the amniotic fluid and ****ing it right back out again. Definitely looks like DH too. So all is well and normal in this camp.
Shell, it seems to vary so much as to when you feel movement. Quite normal not to have felt it yet at your stage. As Hayseed said it can take a while. I'm sure when you have your next scan you'll be wondering how this is possible when you see the little blighter dancing around everywhere.
Got to catch up in here tonight or tomorrow and do some proper posting. Hope everyone is well. Thinking of you girls.
Love,
Mel
