Gender reveal. Not sure

We turn 16 weeks a week before christmas and I wanna book a scan for the gender. I’m thinkng of doing the cake reveal or a Christmas cracker. Would you do it on that day or wait until Christmas morning?

Labour pains what do the feel like

Am really struggling this evening to tell if am in early labour or not! I’m actually booked in for induction tomorrow m.
I’ve had baby’s before but only suffered back labour never pains in the belly but tonight am having pains across the front low down lasting a good few seconds and like shooting pain up my vag, my whole belly goes solid during the time and it actually takes my breath and I can’t move until it passes braxton hicks or start of Labour?

Birthday

So idk if this would be considered bd drama, but he just texted me “happy birthday” my birthday isn’t until April 20th, we’ve known each other since 2024. And I just feel a little sad that he doesn’t know my birthday. Should I appreciate that he tried? Or be upset that after all this time he still doesn’t know my birthday?

Changed due date

Anyone had their date change at 12 weeks scan?

I used my last period and also fully tracked ovulation, I had a due date Oct 10.

In my 12 week scan they said Oct 15

Now I don’t know which to use as I know the 12 week scan can place things wrong due to the tiniest millimetre off measurement

What did others go by and what was accurate?

Second baby here!

Rolling?

Baby girl is 6 months old. 7 months on the 23rd. She’s not rolling yet. Doesn’t seem like she’s interested? She’ll arch her back and turn her body over; kinda like rolling but doesn’t. Just wondering if any other moms are in the same boat? She sits on her own really well but still needs support so she doesn’t fall back. Is this considered behind? 😅

Help- Can contractions feel like pressure?

I have a painful pressure pain and crampy feeling in my lower back/lower abdomen and pelvic area. It woke me up from sleep and it's too painful to sleep with it. They're coming every 3-5 mins, I'm 40+5 weeks. Is this labour? I have no idea. They're getting more painful. I'm hydrated. Thanks xx
