Movements

Hey girls! Just wondering when everyone started to feel movement and when it became a regular pattern? I’m 19 weeks and have felt some very sporadic movement, like popping but it honestly isn’t very often at all. This is my second baby but I cannot remember for the life of me what it was like with my first. Thank you x

I am feeling lots of flitters with no pattern to them really , I’m 18 weeks on 4th and I’m the same as you I can remember when I felt on previous pregnancies x

No to be fair I don’t. I had an anterior last time (although had no problems feeling movement). At my 12 week scan they said it’s likely I’d have another anterior but have my 20 week scan this week so will know for sure then. Thank you ❤️

First baby and I have an anterior placenta. I’m 20 weeks and have just started feeling the occasional pop over the last 3-4 days but not regular yet. It’s giving me a bit of reassurance while waiting for the 20 week scan so I hope you get the movement soon too. 😊🤞🏼

I’m 19 weeks and I’ve been feeling kicks for a few weeks now which are getting stronger. Have also started to distinguish a rough pattern. Always feel baby around 7.30am but still working out wake windows in the evenings x

I’m 20+3 and am feeling her move around on a daily basis! Think my placenta is posterior though!

normal or infected?

5 weeks post c section , i went at the beginning of the week as my wound had opened completely different area to what’s leaking. was told it didn’t look infected. anyone know if this is normal coming off it, it’s only a little amount at a time

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

I am so done with pregnancy !

Everything i do hurt . I sit down / i stand up / i walk / i lie down. I am in pain ! I am tired ! His mouvement hurt down there like electricity chock ! My back is on fire ! If i walk more then 5 minutes i feel like i am going to die ( low ferritine) the acid reflux is crazy . I mean i can’t and don’t wanna do this no more . Only 31 weeks !

Almost 37 weeks + told to do another growth scan

I just had my second to last doctor’s appointment this morning, and my OB told me she wants me to do another growth scan because my belly is measuring small. She says it’s probably just because I’m a smaller woman, but they like to be safe. It’s hard to hear though, since I just did one a couple months ago.

I did this with my firstborn around this time of pregnancy, so I do think I just carry smaller (even though I don’t feel like I look “small” at all). My first baby was 6lbs 15oz when she was born at 41 weeks + 2 days. I’m having this baby at 39 weeks on April 7. I hope she’s still at least 6lbs.

Anyone have any stories similar to this?
