Nesting and birth dreams

I had the most vivid dream last night that I was going into labour early… I don’t know if it’s because a friend of mine is now 2 weeks overdue and we were talking about her next steps/plans for induction ect but Ive had the strongest feeling (even before this dream) that my baby will arrive early and I’m worried I’m not going to be ready.

My parents are coming to help with decorating the nursery next week, so everything is in boxes waiting to be put together. But I’m feeling anxious like I need to be keeping myself busy doing other things (I mean I am busy enough still working full time!) I started cleaning all the windows yesterday on my lunch break. And the day before I was on my hands and knees washing all the skirting boards 😂

Im not due until 2nd week in Jan, but feel like the closer we get, I need to get everything ready. Just in case.
Anyone else in nesting mode already?

I’m itching to be but I have a 1yo and my backs so bad. But can feel it defo coming on lol.
We already have most stuff done and ready but I can’t seem to sit still my heads planning lol xx

I had this with my first, had so many vivid dreams and had a deep gut feeling my baby would arrive early…she was 6 days over 😅

I’m 28 weeks and we still have so much to do. I guess because this is my 2nd I feel like I have everything already but that’s not the case at all! Nursery still needs painted & carpet replaced…I have no post partum stuff any more so need to replenish that AND I still feel I need to re-wash all the baby clothes and put them away etc 🤪 finding the time to do that with a toddler is not easy haha

😂😂 watch me go over due now too 😂😂

Oh my God, oh my God I hope this is not true!!!! I’m kind of scared

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you

If this is your second child are you/have you given your eldest a present “from baby”

If so what did you give them because I am stuckkkkkkk, due next week so really need to get a wriggle on to get sorted 😂
