Putting life on a "hold"

People say that we should relax, and continue on doing the things we would normally do, but can we really? We started our TTC journey at the end of May last year, conceived in the July cycle and was pregnant till October before a MMC blighted ovum. They say oh it will surely not happen again and you will get pregnant soon, and we fell pregnant again in the January cycle and am just coming off a chemical pregnancy. I don't really think during the whole time we could live our life so normally, my social life has significantly reduced, as I'm trying to get more information before about TTC, trying not to tell anyone too much, and not joining for drinks..then trying to find out about tests for recurrent miscarriages.. it's really so difficult. I'm trying to process what has happened but I don't even know how or what to feel. My only experience with pregnancy ultrasounds are just empty sacs or nothing.. Sorry for the rant, just needed to get this out there. Thank you! X

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

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 😃
