Feeling baby

Ladies what did baby’s kicks feel like? I don’t know if I’m going mad but I could swear I can feel the baby kicking a bit and I’m only 16 weeks (first baby). I keep getting a circling twinge in the same area on my left side like on and off every couple of minutes and when I pressed in a little I felt something with my fingers for a couple of seconds. Would that be the baby saying an early hello?🥺 someone please tell me I’m not insane🤣

I’ve had this really recently. Almost felt like a circle burning poke. I just assumed it was a cramp or something but now I’m hopeful it might be movement? I was thinking the first feelings would be cute and light but this wasn’t 😂

It’s like you can put your finger on the exact place and it’s feel like a complete tiny circle?

I’ve had gas pains before and it’s nothing like this feeling for sure!

For me, early kicks feel like a gas bubble or a muscle twitch! It definitely could be it!!

Aw I’m glad he got to feel them so early!! I felt a kick from the outside yesterday but my husband couldn’t run in the room fast enough 🤣

this is what I've been feeling. I assumed it was gas. 16 weeks can't believe it's been the baby. I sometimes also feel a bit like my stomach is spinning I thought it would be too early for the baby!

Did my waters just break

Hey ladies,
I’m a FTM and I’m wondering whether this is a partial water break or not. I felt a small amount of warm liquid down below. It wasn’t a lot and didn’t soak my pants but it was clear and had a water consistency. Was enough for me to question it, I am after all 40+6. I did try smell it, but I used kitchen roll to clean it up so I don’t know if the smell was sweet or not as I smelt more kitchen roll than anything 🙄😂
Since nothing more has come out, wondering if it was just my vagina cleaning itself. I’ve tried the Kegel test but nothing so I’m really unsure. Obviously my fingers are crossed more does make an appearance.

Just want to sleep again! 🫩

I wake up around 8.30am, have some cereal, meditate/pray for a bit, make a cuppa and then by 10am I’m tired again and could easily nap. My iron levels have been checked and were fine. Is it just me or is anyone else feeling like this? I’m currently 35 weeks pregnant 👀

Possible blood clot on the lung /VQ scan

Has anyone had a VQ scan for possible blood clots. As I need to have to have one and concerned due to the radiation and possible risk of baby having childhood cancer.

Review at 36 weeks

Has anyone had An anesthesia review at 36 weeks?
What is this for as I never had this with my first?
I am being scanned every 3 weeks as my first was small and now my second is measuring small.

Anyone else still feeling really good

If I hadn’t of had a scan I wouldn’t believe I was pregnant. I was tired with sore boobs and this is still the case but no where near as much. I feel so good. I am incredibly bloated though but I can deal with that. My first pregnancy I suffered with dizziness really bad so this is a pleasant change.

Baby girl names

Love pretty shorter names such as Millie, Gracie, Lottie. My husband only likes Millie and I’m struggling to find anything else he likes! However I’m not 100% on Millie.

Love Lilly, Maisie, Isabelle, Tilly but sadly can’t use these sadly.

We have a little boy called Oliver (Ollie).

Middle name will be Rae.

Any ideas?🙈
